Chapter 4 Andrew POV

Andrew P.O.V

I could still feel my face burn from embarrassment, I try and shake it off but that only caused more embarrassment on my part. This is going to be fun, I hope.

As we walk towards...

"Have you eaten yet?" I asked because I realized that I had no idea what to do first. We could get ice cream but what if she hasn't eaten yet. Or if I take her to a restaurant and she already ate.

I realize that while I am lost in thought Akko had already answered my question. Although looking at her face I could tell that she knew I zoned out, but waited for me to say something.

"Sorry Akko I didn't quite catch that; can you say it again?" I ask nervously, I could basically feel my cheeks turning tomato red as I am caught under her stare.

"I said that I already ate something before I left, but I wouldn't mind some ice cream?" she replied

I could see the blush forming on her cheeks. I could let her suffer but as much as I want to I just can't, because she is just so adorable. With that thought in my mind I could feel my face explode and I just look away so he doesn't see my blush-filled face.

"Uh sure, there is a really good ice cream place not far from here, is that okay?" I ask, and then turn my head around to see Akko's cheery face and her beautiful smile, agh its contagious because I smile just a bit.

"Sure" she beamed in response.

About one minute of walking, I start to realize how small Akko's hands are and how soft they look. Crap now I really wanted to hold her hand just to see how it would feel to have her hand embraced with mine.

While I was lost in my thoughts I didn't realize that Akko wanted the same thing but she tried to do what she calls "subtle" hints. After about ten seconds I finally decided I had enough and I (calmly) grabbed her hand and intertwined our hands.

Oh god her hand was so soft it felt like holding an angel's wing (too much? doesn't matter her hands are worth it), I could feel her happiness blooming off her. She looks so happy and relaxed, god it was worth asking her on a date, well asking her on a paper. Still the same.

About five minutes later we finally (sadly) arrived at the ice- cream shop I was talking about, I didn't want to let go of her hand and I tried not to, but when we got to the counter we had to take our hands back (I already missed her warmth) she ordered a scoop of strawberry and I got a scoop of mint-n-chip.

After I payed for both of cones, I ask if she would like to go to the park to take a stroll. She beamed and replied "yes".

I felt genuinely happy because this meant I could hold her hand again since we got cones and not cups. So not being as nervous as I was the first time I intertwined our hands and I could feel her grip my hand, as a sign that she enjoyed holding hands. From that point on we fell quiet only hearing the tip taps of are feet hitting the cement. We don't talk but that's fine, it doesn't feel awkward or strange it feels comfortable. So, I enjoy holding hands with her and eating my ice cream peacefully.

After ten (blissful) minutes we finally arrived at the park, and I could see her excitement coming off from her, and I could feel how she wanted to finish her ice cream so she could go on the swings. Although as I looked at her cone, I realized that she still had a lot of ice-cream on her cone, and I could tell she noticed to.

"Want me to hold you cone?" she looks at me with hope in her eyes.

"Are you sure?" she asked, eyeing me carefully.

"Yeah, I already finished mine, so I could hold it for you while you go play on the swings?" I could tell she wants to say yes but something in her eyes change and silently she just grabs my hand and drags me to a bench.

I fumble a bit because, one I could feel the blush on my face from her being so direct. And two because, well just because she's so direct.

We finally arrive at a bench, instead of letting go of my hand she holds onto it as she sits down and continues to eat her cone. She looks up at me confused before looking at our intertwined hands and she lets go, letting the red take over her face. I laugh at her outburst and sit right next to her, I grabbed her hands and she was so shocked I did because she almost dropped her cone, but she caught up and saved her cone. She moved her thumb up and down lightly against my knuckles and I do the same, we look up at each other and both smile.

She finally finished her cone and she basically dragged me to the swings. The minute she got on I started to push her, and her laughter filled the park and I could honestly feel my heart swell inside my chest.

Her laughter was contagious and I ended laughing along with her, and I genuinely felt so light from the happiness this girl gave me.

After about ten minutes on the swing we went on the slides and did many other things. By the end I was exhausted, it looked like she was too. But I didn't want to end the night. Although we decided that we should call it a day. We were hungry from all the things we did today so we decided to have dinner at a restaurant nearby. As we walked we kept making little jokes back and forth, I made her laugh so hard that she nearly fell from laughter. I felt genuine pride for being able to make her laugh like that.

When we arrived at the restaurant we were so tired that the amount of food we ate was incredible. She tried to pay half but in the end decided that I'll pay it and she'll pay next time.

I was so happy she said next time, that I felt a full-blown grin on my face.

As we walked out, I realized I could call a cab, but I rather walk her home so I could spend more time with her. As we walked we talked about so many things, like 'why she joined the café, that first started out as a small job that eventually became her permanent job' or 'all the things her and her friends did' she was smiling. And I could feel my heart beat even faster. As I look up I realize that Akko stopped walking, and then I noticed that we were here at her house.

I will be honest and say that I was a little disappointed that we were already here but, I didn't say anything. I walked her up to her door, and as she was about to go in. I thought I should kiss her, but instead I realized that she seemed nervous about all that.

I give her my number instead, because I remembered I never gave her my phone number. When she looked at it I could see the relief in her eyes. That soon turned into worry. She was about to say something but I knew what it was.

"Akko, as much as I want to kiss you good night, I know that you want your first kiss to be with someone special, so I don't mind waiting until you're ready, but don't worry I am not going anywhere." I could see the relief and happiness overflow from her eyes, hearing someone call Akko from inside I decided it was time for me to go.

With one last good-bye, I kissed the top of her forehead, I see her whole face turn red, I smile and wave bye to her.

I call a cab and gave them the directions to my home, I don't remember what I did next but all I know is that everyone noticed that I had a smile on my face and that I was extremely happy.

I got ready for bed and before the sleepiness toke over I smiled as I thought about seeing Akko again, and how cute her blush was.
