Way Back When (Elizabeth. O)

Mia's POV:

Fancy Restaurant

"Mia?" I hear someone call my name. Great, why can't I just have a date with a wonderful lady and not be interrupted. I turn around in my seat to see who exactly called my name.

"Oh my god fancy seeing you here!" They practically yell at me as they march over to our table.

"Hello Chris." I mumble, a little annoyed that he felt the need to come over here and interrupt our meal.

"Hey, who would have thought that we're going to the same restaurant?" He speaks, I don't think that he has ever ran out of energy a day in his life, every time that I speak to him he's so lively.

"Yeah, not me." I say and take a huge swig of wine from my glass.

"Oh my god, you're Chris Evans!" Bailey yells, why is she encouraging this? I just want to continued getting to know this girl, it's like someone doesn't want us to know one another.

"I am, and you are?" He says and takes her hand in his, great. He's now stealing my date. Urgh.

"I'm Bailey. I'm an old friend of Mia's. We're on a date." She says, blushing slightly. I don't know whether it's because he's a big celebrity or because she finds him attractive.

"Oh, yeah. I should probably leave you two to it then." He says and walks off. I don't see any of the other cast members, or a date. But it's probably something Chris would do, just go to a restaurant by himself.

"Yeah, it was nice seeing you." I say sarcastically and lightly guide him away from our table with his arm.

Once he's out of sight, I swivel back around to look at Bailey, who's smile makes me laugh. It's probably a big deal for her, meeting someone as famous as him, whereas for me it's just like 'ah Chris is here again'.

"So, where were we?" I ask, sipping from my glass again. I see her lean in slightly and a mischievous smile form on her face.

"Look, dates aren't really my thing. How about we go and go something fun?" She says, and for a moment I think she's joking, but then when her smile doesn't fade I realise that she's being deadly serious. I don't know if she means sex or not, I would be against the idea as of right now, I mean it's a bit soon for that.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"I mean, lest do something fun. There's a fairground a couple of blocks from here, we could get some beers, and we could have fun." I sigh happily, thankful that she didn't mean the other thing.

"Yeah, okay. That sounds cool. I'm in." I say and we leave some money on the table before we get out of our seats and leave the restaurant. I've never been that fancy anyway, so it's nice to leave. We step out and she points out the way that we've got to go to get to the fairground.

"Y'know, me and my mom used to do this thing when we're younger, where we would run into a random store and asks the person at the desk what year it was, and no matter what they said, we'd jump up and down yelling 'we did it, we did it' over and over again and then run out." I say, hinting to doing it now. She laughs as I speak, and I take that as a good sign.

"Oh my god that's amazing. We should do that right now!" She squeals in excitement. She's so adorable when she does that little nose scrunch, it gives me butterflies in my stomach. It's also something that Liz used to that used to make my heart do backflips. But I push the feeling back down, ashamed that I'm even thinking about her right now.
