Date Night with Luna and Beck
In which Luna and Beck plan a date night!
Luna: Listen. You guys know that my boyfriend, Beck Mason, is basically the World's Greatest Human. And the best at sex.
Beck: ..........thank you.
Luna: Shhh. All of Bluewater knows you're the best at sex, so these newsletter subscribers might as well too. Anyway, this morning I set out to plan a romantic picnic date by the pool for my grumpy, meat-eating soulmate.
Beck:..........thank you?
Luna: After consulting with Daisy, Emily and Cam, I wanted it to look something like this:
Beck: I told Luna I'd be fine with a six-pack and my favorite cheeseburger from Barb's. *blushes* *tries unsuccessfully to hide it* However I, uh....also really appreciate when Luna shows me her love.
Luna *grinning like a love-struck idiot*: A partner like you deserves a candle-lit picnic every night, Beck. Plus, Penelope wanted to help by tearing up and eating everything I put down. It was really a team effort to celebrate Beck's amazingness. I'd set the table. Penelope would eat it. I'd set it again. Our sweet girl would eat it again.
Beck: I love that dog so fucking much.
Luna: Honestly, we should be cooking Penelope a picnic every night. She's the best. Beck recently brought home a shirt he bought that declares him '#1 Dog Dad'.
Beck: I bought it because it's the truth.
Luna: Sometimes Beck carries Penelope around from room to room so she doesn't get too tired.
Beck: What Luna doesn't know, is that I also spent the day preparing for our date-night-pool-picnic.
Luna: .....but it's your picnic. I wanted to celebrate you. All you have to do is show up and look adorable.
Beck *shrugs*: Too bad. Daisy helped me.
Luna: Oh, god.
Beck: I spent the day learning how to craft this vegan cocktail called a Blackberry ... Kombucha... Vodka Smash.
Luna: You made me a kombucha cocktail?? *launches herself at Beck and begins kissing him in a way not suitable for newsletters*
Beck *blushing outrageously again* I should, uh, make them for you more often.
Recipe courtesy of Darn Good Veggies! Also this cocktail legit looks delicious for a summer night!
Luna: See? He's the best.
Beck: Daisy did teach me a lot about European princes.
Luna: I also might have spent the day learning how to make something called a....Cheeseburger Tater Tot with bacon?
Beck: Wait, what?
Luna: It's like a tater-tot. And you smash it and fill it with beef, cover it in cheese then sprinkle bacon on top. Basically everything I can't eat. I made you like a million of them. And ten for Penelope.
Beck: You cooked beef-filled potatoes for me then slathered them in bacon-cheese?
Luna: Yes, sir.
Beck: I love you so much.
Luna: Right back atcha, Mr. Mason.
Now I legitimately need to make these though. Dammit Luna!
NSFW: And then things got dirty...
Pssst. This is Kathryn. Of course, Beck and Luna did some...ahem...other things on their date night that I can't post in here. But I can post a dirty bonus scene on Book+Main. Click the button below to read what happened pre-picnic...
Luna: Thanks for letting us come by and fill you in on our date-night plans. The truth is, every night with Beck feels just like this. Silly, magical, sexy and fun. And with lots and lots of dog shenanigans.
Beck: She stole my heart, that's for sure.
Luna: Penelope?
Beck: No, sweetheart. You.
