Prima Ballerina(#Wattys2015)

Datenight

The rest of the week passes in a blur of relaxation interrupted by a phone call from Lara rehearsals started on Monday which I was looking forward to I could almost barely wait but first I had to get through this...date...thingy. 

I call up Katie and say "Emergency I need an outfit for dinner and a movie with a guy who I really like but we are going as friends" she laughs and says "Your blue blouse the one with the frills a pair of boyfriend cut dark jeans and the heels I bought you last Christmas" she says smiling through the phone "Don't wear perfume wear minimal makeup and don't bring your purse oh and wear diamond studs and your black diamond pendant necklace". "Thanks Katie your a life saver as soon as you get here I am taking you out to eat" I say "Ahh so you think you are gonna get away with not introducing me to your future boyfriend I see how it is" she says making disapproving sounds "Now go get ready you gotta get yourself a boyfriend" She says hanging up. I follow her directions exactly and marvel at how well she can dress me even when she is hundreds of miles away from me right now.

I look regal almost.

I hear a knock on my door and I shut out"Come in" and Cameron walks through the door chuckling "Do you always let anyone who knocks on your door come in?" he asks coming into the kitchen "You....look...had anyone ever told you...that...you...look...look.. " he stutters out not even finishing his sentence. "Thank you Cameron" I say smiling. I check out his outfit and can't help but bust out laughing " How in the world did you know exactly what color blue I was wearing?" I ask because he was wearing a nice looking blue sweater in the exact same shade I was. He looks down laughs then looks at me and says  "Penn you look pretty" instantly I feel myself blushing. "You wanna head out?" I ask slightly breathless. 

"Join the dark side Odile" he said holding out his arm to me like a gentleman. " I thought I already was on the dark side" I say giving him an evil look and taking his hand. 

Cameron thought I looked pretty!

By the time we got to the restaurant I am proud to say I was Queen Penn of the darkside. Why was I Queen Penn of the darkside because both of us fessed up to never having watched Star Wars even though we made plenty of references to it. So I was the Queen and Cameron was the King. On a dare I walked into Chipotle's waving my hand like royalty saying "I have come! Rejoice!" Cameron could be pretty inventive when it came to messing with people.As we are eating he teaches me how to play table football which ended badly unfortunately I accidentally flicked the paper football right into his eye. 

"I know that was an accident but wow Penn you really can pack a punch with that thing" he said pointing at the football in my hand as we leave Chipotle's and start walking towards the theater I smile and say "Off with your head!" he looks at me sadly and says "Not my head!  Its the best part of me. What have I done to anger the Queen so?". I bust out laughing and answer him "You have said that the Queen ""Packs a Punch"" it is offensive for I pack a AXE!!!!!! OFF WITH HIS HEAD!" then we both double over laughing getting stares from the people around us.

 "You know Penn I think I miss judged you because  when I first met you I thought ""Wow she has got to be the most by the books person I have ever met"" because I thought you walked the line and never stepped over it but know I see that you are probably the most fun entertaining and nerdy girl I have ever met. I am gonna love dancing with you" he says as we walk into the theater.

"I think they underplayed the dancing" I say sadly leaving the theater. Cameron says nothing. 

As we walk towards my apartment complex we start to play a game of only stepping on the red stones which were placed every six stones which in turn forced us to jump from stone to stone "I bet you can't jump two red stone sets" says Cameron with a triumphiant smile on his face. "Oh yeah challenge accepted" I say leaping into the air in a graceful Glisse Ou Verte a simple move but a practical one I end up crashing into Cameron and I end up on top of him right in front of my building. I hastily jumped up and helped him up. "Thanks you for tonight I will see you at rehearsals Monday I guess" I say a little nervous but confident still. He smiles then says "No Penn thank you" then he leans in and kisses me. It was only a peck on the lips it lasted barely a second but it still left me utterly stunned "Goodnight Penn" he says walking away with a smile on his face leaving me still stunned touching my lips where his had been not a minute before wondering why I felt so good.
