You were more than irritated with your friends, who had set you up for yet another blind date. They all had boyfriends, and they wanted you to have one as well. They knew people, so they constantly found guys to try and set you up with. The last few dates they sent you on were bad, one of the guys only wanted you for sex. So you didn't have your hopes up for the latest date. But you went, only to make your friends happy.
You went to the Italian resturant that was the assigned meeting place, and told them your name. They led you to your table, thank god you were there first. You sat down, and smoothed out your floral print dress. You pulled out your phone and played Candy Crush, until you heard a cough from the other side of the table. You looked up, and saw, to your surprise, a gorgeously tattooed man with beautiful hazel-brown eyes. "Hi, I'm Oli." He said, with a thick British accent. "Hi, I'm Alex." You said, shaking his hand. "You look shocked?" Oli asked. "Oh, I'm sorry. I just expected you to look..." You said, stopping yourself. "Look... Bad?" He asked. "No, my friends just set me up on dates with sleazy guys, not guys who look like they front metalcore bands." You said, chuckling. "Can I tell you a secret?" He asked. "Um, sure." "I actually do front a metalcore band." He whispered. "Oh, wow! I'm psychic!" You said, laughing. "You don't know my band? Bring Me The Horizon?" He asked. "I've heard of you guys but I don't look up pictures of you like obsessive fangirls. You guys have that song Shadow Moses right?" You asked. "Yep, that's us."
"To tell the truth, I like that you don't know my band. It actually makes this way less awkward." He said, after you guys ordered your drinks. "You can get to know me for me, and not the guy in the band." He said to you. "How did this even get set up? I mean, if you're famous, how did this happen?" You asked. "Your friend, uh, Michelle I think, she's my friend's sister. My friend told me she needed a single guy for her friend. I just thought it was going to be casual. I didn't expect you to be this gorgeous." He said, not skipping a beat. "Um, wow, thanks." You said, pushing your hair behind your ear.
For the rest of the night, you two talked and laughed. You ate good food, and enjoyed each others company.
"Alex, this was one of the best nights I've had in a while." He said, while you two were walking out of the resturant. "Thanks, Oli, me too." You said. "No, I'm really serious. I really liked being around you. And I love your tattoos." He said, touching your half sleeve on your arm. "I love yours too." You said, and kissed the 3 dots he has by his eyes. He then turned his face so you were kissing. When you broke apart, Oli asked "Alex, will you be my girlfriend?" "Yes Oli." You said and smiled, as he started to kiss you again.
