Imagine For Maddy

Dan's POV:

I can't believe it's already Saturday! I've had a full week to prepare for this, but here I am freaking out in bedroom, all because I can't quite decide whether to wear a casual t-shirt or get more dressed up in a suit. God damn why am I so nervous?!?

Oh, because in around half an hour I've got a date with surely the most beautifully perfectly imperfect girl in the work, so yeah I guess I'm a little nervous about blowing it.

*flashback*

The lights were blindingly bright, but not as bright as her smile. Laughing a little she was dancing to the music, and not just any music, my music.

I felt that I was lucky to even get to see this, let alone cause it. She looked so pretty, but I knew she wouldn't care about me.

"These streets are...." My mind just went completely blank, I couldn't think of anything......anything but her face, though that wasn't going g to help me right now. Shit.

"Are yours..." Will whispers to me as I look even more nervous than usual.

Ok I really need to keep my attention on performing, I just hope I can't find her after the set.

Something tells me that this girl is important.

*end flashback*

Hearing the doorbell ring I quickly decide on my wearing my 'I killed Laura Palmer' shirt, paired with black jeans and converse shoes. Very original, not! I just hope she doesn't think I'm underdressed or didn't care enough....

"Hi, love!" I answer the door and give her a small hug as we walk the few metres to my car.

"Hey Dan. I love your shirt!" She giggles and I first think that she making fun of me, but then then I look at her....

She's wearing the exact same shirt that I am!

Well at least I don't have to feel underdressed anymore! "Well, they say great minds think alike!" I wink at the end, which I'm sure comes out looking more creepy than it shows that I was joking.

I just hope tonight goes well...

Your POV:

I'm overjoyed - haha - to be going on a date with Dan tonight! He's been my favourite musician for years, but now that I've actually spoken to him I've realised that he's better than I had imagined. He's so sweet, shy and around as pessimistic as me! So I guess saying that I have a crush on him would be a slight understatement, though I'm sure he'd never feel the same. Still, being his friend is great.

He greets me with a hug and smile. My eyes drift straight to his shirt and I can't help but say something while giggling a little.

"Hey Dan. I love your shirt!"

It turns out we'd both chosen to wear the same shirt, of course with both us being huge Twin Peaks lovers it's not that shocking.

Speaking of which, Dan still hasn't told me what movie we're seeing, I'm pretty chill with most movies, really, I prefer reading books to watching movies, but I guess that isn't the ideal dats activity....

Soon we arrive at the theatre, to make things cooler it's actually a drive-in movie theatre! And I'm really excited about it!

"Should we park there?" Dan asks pointing at a nice quiet spot that's a couple of metres from where we're parked now. I give him a nod and he starts the car again, stopping a few moments later.

"Now, what snacks do you want?!" He then starts listening what must be a whole shopping-market worst of food, how did he even fit it all in his car?!

I decide on two chocolate bars and a small packet of plain chips, Dan chooses the same, only he has salt and vinegar chips. Within a few moments the movie starts and its......The Princess Bride. I haven't seen this movie before, but I've heard great things about it so I'll be happy to watch it!

"Are you cold?" He questions, noticing that I'm kind of curling into a ball in the passenger seat.

Not wanting him to get cold, thinking that he's going to do the cliche thing and give me the jacket he recently put on, I just shake my head. But, evidently seeing through my useless lie, he passes over a blanket and spreads it over himself and I. Possibly this wasn't the best activity to doc in the middle of winter, but really it's quite romantic and nice.

By the second or third scene our hands are gradually growing closer, whether from the cold or something else I can't quite tell...

Dan's POV:

'Just do it! C'mon Dan!' I mentally try to give myself a pep talk, I really, really want to grab her hand, hell I want to kiss her....but, and there always a 'but', but I'm jut sure if she feels the same, and I couldn't bare to lose her as a friend.....

Again I curse myself for being so awkward, Kyle wouldn't be hesitating so much! While trying to gain some confidence I try to pay attention to the movie. I was worried it would be too cliche and boring but so far it actually seems pretty cool, no Twin Peaks but cool nonetheless.

Finally I just go for it, we're now gently holding hands, and if her sweet smile is anything to go by, I think I made the right choice.

This night is going better than I thought it would!

The movie soon comes to a close, it was pretty good but I must admit my eyes were mostly focused on Maddy's adorable face....

Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed tonight a whole lot, but I don't think I can go on not knowing if she feels the same as I do.

"Maddy, I had a wicked time tonight....umm I don't know how to say this...but will you go out with me? On a proper date?"......

"I'd love to Dan! I must confess that I have a not-so-small crush on you...." In the faint light of my car's headlights and I can see that she is blushing a little, aww.

"Wicked! Same here...hey, would you like to come back to my house and have a Twin Peaks marathon?" I don't know where all this braveness is coming from, but it's amazing!

"That would be absolutely great, do you have any snacks or should we pick some up on the way?" She questions.

I guess it just goes to show that being brave can be good, now I've got a date with the cutest person!

*AN* Sorry this took so long, but this imagine is for kattebel and I hope you like it! :)
