I found his blog per chance. It was a summer evening, I was browsing the tumblr tag for food and stumbled upon it. The blog was about food, of course; recipes, images, tips on being gourmet for a cheap price, and how to videos.
I watched a few of his videos, and I fell in love with his voice instantly. It was British, definitely, and it was a bit high pitched, but nothing that made him sound feminine.
Every now and then, there would be an actual female voice in the videos. The blogger called her Jules, I immediately presumed that was his girlfriend.
I would spend hours listening to his voice, sometimes I would try his dishes but I could never make them like he could.
I already had a big crush on him, oh dear, this would turn out fun.

There is also this cute grocery bagger at the local supermarket. His name is Phil, and he always teases me with minor things like the amount of chocolate I buy and the amount of calories I have in total.
Occasionally, he asks me to come over for dinner sometime and I always have to politely decline. I am way too shy to even say yes, that is how terrible I am.
I always want to, though. Yes, I would like to come over and eat homemade dinner over an anime sometime, but I never get the courage to.

I finally got the courage to send him a message on tumblr.
danisnotonfire: Hi, i really like your videos. They're nice. I also like your voice, it's sweet.
amazingphil: Ah thanks! :)
danisnotonfire: I really envy your ability to cook! I'll never be able to cook as well as you! It's sad that I'm this chubby little crap that eats too much chocolate
amazingphil: That's okay! I'm not that skinny either.
danisnotonfire: Hahaha omg I can't imagine you being chubby
amazingphil: you would be surprised
We were talking for a few hours before he went to bed. I, on the other hand, stayed up because I am a responsible adult and besides there was cute cat pictures on my dash.

It took a few weeks of little chats, no's and rejection before I finally mustered the courage to say 'yes' to Phil. I remember vividly how much his face lit up when I said, "Okay, why not?"
His face lit up like a Christmas Tree, and his smile widened across his face.
"When do you want to come over?" he asked.
"How does Friday night sound?" I replied.
"Sure!"
He handed me my receipt and it had his number written over the top in a blue sharpie. He was still beaming and over the moon about the fact that he finally got me to say yes.

You: Can't wait for this Friday
Phil: Ahhh same!!
You: :)
Phil: :)

Friday seemed to inch closer and closer, I dreaded waiting for the week to go by. I hardly saw Phil and amazingphil was inactive.
danisnotonfire: what are you up to?
amazingphil: Got a date on Friday, preparing for it :)
danisnotonfire: Ah ok, good luck!!
Finally Friday rolled around, and I was bouncing on the balls of my feet. I had picked out my outfit very specifically, making sure I do not seem too casual nor too formal.
It was a simple outfit really; I wore my black jeans and a sweater over a dress shirt, on my feet were my galaxy converse sneakers.
At 6 pm, Phil sent me his address. It was not far from my apartment, so I walked over. Phil buzzed me in and opened his apartment door for me.
I sat down at a laid out table and sipped on the red wine he offered me. Phil served food to me, and started chatting with me. I immediately noticed that the dish was something that caught my eye on amazingphil's blog.
"Are you a fan of amazingphil?" I asked. "This seems to be his dish…"
Phil raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm amazingphil."
I typed something out on my phone and sent it to amazingphil on tumblr. Phil's phone buzzed.
danisnotonfire: I'm the date…
amazingphil: Omg yeah you are, you cutie patooie.
I giggled and Phil sighed. We sat down and ate our dinner. We cleared up our plates after we finished, and cuddled on the couch.
Phil nuzzled into my hair and I kissed his neck. He let out soft moans and sighs as I kissed up his neck and finally his lips. We kissed, slowly and passionately. I pulled away and we put on a movie to watch.
We fell in love the way you fall asleep, slowly then all at once.
