You get back to Dukes and you both go and jump onto the sofa after grabbing a can of coke from the fridge. You and Duke both scroll through TikTok and a post from Dukes spam account comes up on your fyp. He looks over because he recognises the sound and he says "So obviously you're still obsessed with me if I'm showing up on your fyp." while trying not to laugh. You blush a bit and say "can you blame me though?" and you start to laugh. Duke smiles and says "well I am pretty amazing" and he winks at you. It makes you go completely red so you try to laugh it off. Duke notices how red you are so he says "So if I wink it makes you blush? I'll be doing that more then.". You go even redder than before and Duke just laughs.

Duke looks over to you and says "Have you ever watched Sweeney Todd?". You shake your head and Duke says "it's a musical with Johnny Depp and it's so good, we could watch it if you want.". You can tell he really wants to watch it so you say okay. He puts it on and sings along to all the songs so you smile because he's so cute.

The film finishes and you turn to Duke and say "that was actually really good but now I've got the songs stuck in my head." and you both laugh. He starts singing part of one of the songs and you sing along with him. You both stare at each other while singing and then Duke stops. You're confused on why he's not singing anymore. "Are you alright?" you say to him. Duke just sits there staring into your eyes, smiling. There's complete silence until Duke says "you really don't realise how beautiful you are y/n.". You blush and don't know what to say. You manage to let out a single word "Duke...". Duke smiles again and starts getting closer to you. "Listen, I know you said you wanna take things slow so there's no pressure on you, ok? I have to ask this question because I've wanted to for so long," Duke stares into your eyes while saying it and you know exactly what words are about to come out of his mouth but you say to him "Duke, what is it?". Duke puts his hand on your hand and lightly squeezes it "y/n, will you go out with me... on a date, as more than just friends?" You can tell Duke is nervous by the beads on sweat forming on his head. You stay silent for a while, just smiling while staring at Duke. All of a sudden you shout "YES!" as you jump over to Duke and hug him. Duke smiles and hugs you back and you stay holding each other for a few minutes.

"You don't realise how happy you've made me, Duke." You say to him, smiling. He smiles and says back "and you don't realise how long I've been waiting to ask that question." You both laugh and then Duke kisses you. You don't expect it so you just freeze. Duke leans back from you and says "is everything alright?". You laugh and say "yeah, sorry. I'm not really sure what happened there, I guess I just didn't expect it.". Duke puts his hand on your leg and says "sorry, y/n. Am I taking things too fast again? We can just watch another movie or something if you want." You smile and put your hand on his. "No, your not doing anything wrong, don't worry." You look into his eyes and then say "do you know that you're actually perfect?". Duke goes red and says "you're just saying that, I'm not perfect." He looks down and sighs. You put your hand on his chin and push his head up so he's looking at you, "you really are perfect, and I'm not just saying that. You're probably the best thing that's happened to me and you don't even know it. Honestly I couldn't be happier than when I'm with you." You smile at Duke and he smiles back but then looks down again. You lean over and kiss him on the cheek. He doesn't move so you hug him. You both stay like this for a while and then you fall asleep on him.
