Chapter 4: The First Date

Your POV:

I got home and ran to my closet and started frantically looking through my clothes. Jessica walked in and asked me what the hell I was doing.

I turned to her and started blushing. "I-I'm going on a date."

Her eyes widened. "With who?"

I mumbled "Dan." while staring at the ground.

"DAN?!?!?" She ran up to me and started shaking me. "Holy shit! I knew you two liked each other!"

"Okay! Okay! Can you at least take that energy and help me decide what to wear?"

We started riffling through my clothes, until she left the room and came back with the most gorgeous dress I had ever seen in her hands. Her and I were that same size, so we could fit into the same clothes.

It was a short wine red color that hit just above the knee and hugged me in all the right places. I looked sexy and elegant at the same time. I went into my bathroom to put on some makeup and curl my hair.

*time skip*

By the time we heard the knock on the door, I was ready. I had pulled out a pair of black strappy heels and a matching black purse. Jessica went to go answer the door as I applied a quick coat of mascara. I grabbed my black leather jacket and entered the hallway, greeted by a pair of familiar eyes, that were drinking up my appearance. It looked like he was trying to speak but forgot how to.

"You lo-look amazing." He choked out. I giggled and walked over to where he was standing.

"We should probably get going. Bye Jess!" I turned and looked at my best friend.

"Bye!" She whispered "Good luck" and winked at me. I rolled my eyes and followed Dan out the door.

*time skip*

After we had finished dinner, we decided to go back to my place and watch some TV.

I unlocked the door to the apartment, walked inside with Dan behind me, and noticed that the flat was surprisingly quiet. I walk into the kitchen to see a note on the table. I pick it up and start reading it '(Y/N), i'm going to be staying at my boyfriends place tonight. Hope you had fun on your date! Love you and i'll be home sometime tomorrow. XO, Jess'.

"Jess is at her boyfriends, so were all alone". I turn around and walk over to the TV. I go to Netflix and turn on Sherlock. I run into the kitchen to pop some popcorn and grab some soda. I walk back into the lounge with my hands full. Dan walks over and gives me a hand before I drop something.

"If you're as clumsy as me, then you'll need a hand." He chuckles.

"I'm probably worse." I say with a goofy smile on my face. We settle onto the couch and he puts an arm around me, pulling me close. I could stay here forever.

I must've lulled off, because the next thing I knew, I felt Dan's arms wrap around my waist and then the feeling of a bed underneath me. I awoke several hours later, feeling alone and cold.

*time skip*

I woke up to the sound of my phone going off, so I jumped out of my bed and ran to the couch, where I left my purse last night. I found my phone and checked the caller I.D. to see that it was Dan. I felt a flutter deep in the pit of my stomach and answered with the hint of a smile on my lips.

"Hello?"

"Hey mouse!"

"Oh my god, are you really sticking with that nickname?"

"Yes. Yes I am. Would you wanna go see the London Eye today?"

"YES! I've been dying to go see it! When were you thinking?"

" I'll come 'round in half an hour to pick you up."

"Okay, can't wait."

"Bye, mouse"

"You know i'm gonna have to figure out an annoying nickname for you soon."

"Good luck with that. I'll see you soon."

"Okay, bye." I hung up my phone and may or may not have literally 'jumped for joy'. After I had gotten that out, I went into my bathroom and took a quick shower. Once I got out, I got dressed in a pair of light wash jeans with a light gray sweater and a pair of black combat boots. I grabbed my phone and my purse and walked out the door after leaving Jess a note telling her where I would be.

I waited outside for about 5 minutes until I saw him walk up to me and hold out his hand. I took it and entwined our fingers. We walked for a long time, but it didn't feel so bad, not when I was so focused on his words. He was telling me a story about when he was a kid and I was getting so into the story, that I didn't even realize we were there until he pointed it out to me.

We got into one of the carts and it started moving up. I gasped.

"This view is breathtaking" I turned and saw that he was looking at me.

"Yeah, it is." My breath hitched and he started moving closer to me. I followed his lead, and before I knew it, I felt his soft lips start to graze mine. I leaned in, wanting more. He grabbed me by my waist while I ran my fingers through his hair. We were so consumed in that moment, that we didn't even notice when that ride had stopped.

We heard someone cough and we shot apart, both of us blushing intensely.

"Sorry." I mumbled as I slid out of the seat.

He grabbed my hand and we walked over to a coffee shop to grab lunch.

*time skip* a few weeks later

I awoke to Dan's arms wrapping around my waist. I let out a little giggle.

"Hey baby."

"Hey. How are you feeling?" He said while kissing the hollow of my neck. The feeling made me shiver.

"I'm feeling great." I turned in his arms to face him. "So I thought about what you asked last night."

"And?"

"I would love to meet your parents."

We may or may not have stayed in bed for another hour.

I finally dragged myself out of bed and went into the kitchen to search for food, leaving Dan to sleep for a little longer. I grab some cereal and a cup of coffee and carry it into the lounge. Phil was seated on the couch playing Outlast, so I sat down next to him and watched the game.

"Why do you play these games if you hate getting scared?"

"I have no idea. It's like an addiction. Even though I hate it, I love it at the same time."

"Can I try playing it?"

"Sure!" He handed me the controller and got up to turn down the lights. "Good luck!" and he left the room.

"Hey you're just gonna leave me here all alone to play this?!"

"Yup! You should get the full experience for this game." and for the next half hour I played the game and jumped out of my seat about every 5 or so minutes.

"What in the world are you doing?" Dan walked in with a bowl of cereal and started cracking up when he saw what I was up to. "I can't believe you're actually playing this thing in the dark alone."

"It's Phil's fault! He said I needed to get the full experience. It's absolutely terrifying, but i'm actually getting pretty good at it."

"I think you're further than me." he said with a chuckle. "So we're going to be leaving tomorrow around 11, so you should probably go get your stuff tonight from your place, then you can just stay here."

"Okay i'll head over there now. How long are we staying?"

"A week."

"Okay." I said getting up from my spot. I leaned over to give him a quick peck on the lips, and went into his room to get dressed and grabbed my stuff.
