Joy's POV
-
"Did you just move here?" I hear him ask. Damn, that accent is unreal, "yea, I'm Joy by the way." I said reaching out my hand to shake his. "I'm Dan." he replies shaking my hand."would you like to come in for some.. uh... water? sorry I would say coffee or tea but I don't have any at the moment" I say releasing my grip from Dan's hand.
"I would love to!" He says as he walks into my flat, closing the door behind him.
I quickly find two glasses and fill them up with water then hand one to Dan. He lifts it up towards me like he's making a small toast. "Thank youuu".
"No problem! Would you like any music on?" I say walking to my record player. He follows looking through my records. "Wow wow wow, you've got CHVRCHES ?" He exclaims as he picks up one of their records and examines the album art.
"Of course! They're awesome! Let me play it for you" I practically yell not being able to hold back my excitement that he is into them. I start the record and Dan starts bobbing his head, he must love this song. So I turn up the volume on my speakers.
Hours pass of us just dancing to music when I see that it's getting a bit dark outside and I assume that Dan has some things to do tonight. So I lie to him and say that I have to go to bed.
"Dan, I'm gonna have to get to sleep soon. My sleeping schedule is kinda fucked from changing timezones."
he looks disappointed as he stops dancing.
"oh that's right, you told me you flew in from the U.S. you're gonna have to tell me about that later." he laughs a bit as he slowly makes his way to the door
"Of course! When are you free next?" I ask, trying not to sound too desperate.
"I'll be free after 5 tomorrow, you can swing by my place then."
"Sounds like a plan! Can't wait!" I say while closing the door.
Dan has good taste in music... noted.
