The next day, Briar awoke to an energetic Madeline banging, no, knocking on her door.
"I went on my very first date," she said proudly, like she was a child showing off an achievement.
"Madeline. It's seven in the morning," Briar said to her.
"Briar, it was so magical," Madeline said to her, unable to contain her excitement.
Even after the date, she was hyped. It was even more amazing that she had expected it to be.
Briar yawned.
"You came to rub it in my face, didn't you?" She asked Madeline.
Shaking her head, Madeline said to her, "Of course not, I only came to talk about how amazing my first date was. Even if I already had my first kiss with him before the date, it was incredible."
That one bit of information managed to catch Briar's attention.
"Wait, what?"
Briar's eyes widened. She was no longer half-asleep.
