There's a song I used for reference in the previous chapter and in this. Let me see if you can find it hehe.

Valentine's Day. Every lovers dream. And every single person's nightmare. I woke up this morning and was forced to go out with Niall but at this point we went really forcing each other to spend time with each other. He just kind of grew on me. I've spent a solid 5 months with him now. When they give us a plan, we usually just ignore that shit and do our own thing. 
                          
Unlike any other day though, Niall was reluctant to do anything. So I decided I'd just drag his butt out. Pepper happily went to my neighbours and stayed with them. They love taking care of her. 
                          
On my way out I saw a little florist set up. I quickly parked my car and went over to the woman. 
                          
"Hi!" I waved happily. 
                          
"Hello dear. Can I help you?" She asked. 
                          
"Hmm yeah. Do you have any rose- no hibiscus and marigold?" I asked. She looked at me confused but nodded. 
                          
"Which colours would you prefer darling?" She asked. 
                          
"Pink and red, if it's possible?" I asked. 
                          
"I don't think I've ever made such a random bouquet," she said, grabbing different flowers and making the bouquet. 
                          
"It's mine and my fiancé's favourite flowers. It's very sentimental to us," I chuckled. She passed the beautiful bouquet to me and I paid her. 
                          
I drove over to Niall's and rang his door bell repeatedly. He finally opened and looked really pissed off. 
                          
"What is it?" He groaned. 
                          
"Get ready Mister. We're going out," I said. 
                          
"Who the fuck said you can plan anything?" He asked angrily. 
                          
"Me. Now go and get dressed," I shoved him into his own house. 
                          
"Stop. Leave me alone and go home," he grumbled. 
                          
"Nope," I shook my head. I'm not about to let him ruin my mood. 
                          
"Alexa I don't want to go anywhere. Just fuck off!" He said, his frustration peaking. 
                          
"And I want you to. Just come with me. I swear I'll make it fun," I said, ignoring his harsh words. "Please Goldie? For me?" 
                          
He just mumbled something about me being annoying. He returned , dressed in simple clothing. The winter was finally drawing to an end and I could finally wear comfortable clothing. 
                          
We got into my car and I drove off. I reached my usual cafe and got out. Niall was still sitting in the car so I took it upon myself to drag him out. I opened the door and unbuckled his seatbelt before pulling him out of the car. 
                          
"Why are you such a grouch?" I asked, putting his hand around my shoulder so that I could pull him easily. 
                          
"Won't you like to know?" He muttered.  
                          
"Alright, Mr. Valentine Grinch. What would you like? No wait, I know. Black coffee with two sugars. Right?" I asked and he nodded hesitantly. 
                          
"Tasteless," I shook my head and a smile flashed on his face. 
                          
I got ourselves the drink and decided to drive down the beach. It was where we initially went on our first 'date'. 
                          
A small smile set on Niall's face when he saw where I'd parked my car. I got out, leaving my shoes in the car. I ran towards the ocean, kicking the water as I usually do. Andrew asked me go to crowded places but neither of us liked that set up. As I said, we're rebellious.
