Be You're Own Hero (Ahren Stringer Fanfic)

Ahren's P.O.V (Chapter 6)

         I stayed up all night thinking of the perfect date to take her on. I know she really likes books. She fell in love with her chai tea latte yesterday so she likes tea. Maybe I should take her to multiple places. Go get her a latte, let her pick out some books then a movie maybe? I think that sounds like a good idea. I know the first date you're supposed to learn a lot about the person. But should I kiss her? I really want to but what if that's rushing her? I'm not going to. I really care about her and actually want to impress her.
          I got up and put on some black skinny jeans and one of Joel's purple shirts that I stole. I also threw on a gengar flat bill but backwards of course. Fashion at its finest. (Sarcasm).    I went downstairs and began making breakfast. On the walk home with Emily she mentioned that her favorite breakfast food was French toast. I started cooking. It's about 7am so Joel should be waking up by now. I threw on an apron to prevent my clothes from getting dirty.
           "Hey hottie." Joel says playfully. I turn around to see him standing behind the counter smiling, still in his boxers. I laughed at him. "You must really like her huh? Making breakfast and dressing up in MY clothes." Joel laughs as he says.
           "So what. I really like her." I said as I was blushing. I turned towards the skillet so he wouldn't make fun.
           "She's sweet. I talked to her the whole time in the bus when you were asleep. She's a really good person. Like a little sister to me." There was a short pause from Joel. "Don't hurt her okay." Joel stated.
            I nodded at him and smiled, "I won't. That's why I'm getting to really know her before anything serious." I reassured him.
           Joel looked up at me, "but I don't want her hurting you either." He smiled. "She's sweet but get to know her. Everything about her. I love both of you dearly and I won't be choosing sides." Joel said as he looked down at his empty plate. "Is breakfast almost done? I'm hungry."
                Right before I could reply Emily came and sat beside Joel. She looked at the skillet and her eyes lit up.
               "Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!" She said. "My fucking favorite!"
              I looked at Joel and we both had shocked expressions on our faces. Her cussing was probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I started laughing and I looked up to see Joel laughing and Emily blushing. "The tiniest girl in the world throwing f-bombs! That's hilarious!" I said while still cracking up. Emily was still blushing. I put some food on her plate, then Joel's plate, and then mine. We all sat at the bar eating. Joel and I were having a conversation about our rehearsal for the new album in a month but Emily was too busy eating her food to listen. She's adorable.
              "Hey, Ahren, what time are we leaving?" Emily said quietly while blushing a little.
              "When you get done eating and get ready -as she was still in her pajamas- I'll take you." I said with a smile. Her blush is so cute. She's super shy but I feel like once she opens up she's crazy. I hope so. I want her to feel comfortable around us and especially me.
               "I'm done eating. Thank you for breakfast Ahren. It was amazing. I'll do the dishes when we get back Joel so just relax okay?" Emily said to him.  Before Joel could argue Emily gave him this look saying "don't touch them" with her eyes. She put her plate in the sink and before she went upstairs to get ready, she touched my side. It made me blush and of course Joel noticed.

           "Shut up, Joel."
