Nicole's POV
I was a bit nervous about my date, well a lot to be honest, that's the reason I told Enzo I felt like I was behind all the time. I've never been in love, of course I crush on celebrities and Korean singers but still, this whole thing was new to me. All of my friends have had their first kiss and a prior relationship. I'm not implying they behave like seasoned prostitutes, which sometimes they do, but love knocked on their doors a while ago.
"You haven't exactly told me where is it we are headed" Enzo looked at me curious.
"Umm bowling" I said as a saw a smile brighten his face.
"Food!" He looked at me while biting his lips. It's good to see him like this. He's been a bit low these past few days, and I can imagine why but I'm not planning on asking him until he feels he's ready to open up to me.
A few minutes passed by and I saw Oliver walking toward us with his sister. He held me between his arms, I felt his warmth. It's was comforting and his scent of gingerbread blew my mind, yet I found it odd.
"I'm Oliver by the way" he reached out his hand toward Enzo.
"I know." Enzo shook his hand.
"Of course" he smiled.
"Name's Bea" his sister introduced pointing to herself.
"Sounds-" Before Enzo finished Bea interrupted him. "Dorky?, I know" she sighed.
"I was going to say hot, but whatever floats your boat" Enzo shrugged. I felt myself red from head to toe. Was he serious? Or was he just pulling my leg.
1/2h of stumbling around and we finally got to our destination. The place was dim. Lights and decorations made the place look state of the art. Oliver payed for us all, I knew stopping him from paying was just aimless so I abided that thought.
"Let's get this competition going" Bea exclaimed after getting our shoes. Everyone agreed.
"Can we do teams?" Enzo asked.
"Yeah that sounds fun" I said.
"Okay teams of two: Enzo and Bea, Me and Nicole." We all nodded in agreement.
Enzo is really good at bowling, he got a strike from the start. Oliver knocked down half of them, then the other half. Bea knocked one of them down and got a gutter ball next. I held a pink ball and tried to focus as much as I could. I stood there staring down the long lane and suddenly I remembered, I suck at bowling. Gulping I stuck my fingers in the holes and threw it but it went straight to the gutter.
Oliver patted my arm and I smiled up at him.
"It's okay we all get gutter balls once in a while" he reassured me.
LIES!!
It was almost the middle of the game and Oliver and Enzo had nothing but high scores, mostly strikes. They were like robots, they always got a high score. While Bea got human scores and well.. I guess I love the gutter.
Not long after I hit about three pins, I was a bit embarrassed but we decided to take a little break and eat.
Enzo had a quesarito, I know how much he loves Mexican food. Oliver had a burger and I shared a pepperoni pizza with Bea. I was having fun, and every time Oliver touched me I couldn't help but to bite my lower lip. Turns out I do it unconsciously, but it seems to be working cause he cannot take his eyes from me.
"You eat like a slob" Bea told enzo causing us to laugh.
"Umm I love food, and you're straight forward asf" Enzo sighed.
"Yep, I'm from Mars" she giggled.
"Aren't we all?" Enzo teased.
While eating my phone pinged and I got a text from Oliver.
"You having fun?"
I soon reply noticing he didn't want to let others know, provided that we were sitting in front of each other.
"Yes, having a blast. Thank you!" My response was short but I didn't want to be too cheesy.
"How bout I take you on a real date, the two of us. Somewhere we can talk and chill?"
I froze when I saw this message. Having Enzo around made me feel a bit secure. Knowing he'd step in for me in case I needed to know what to say or what to do made everything run smoothly.
"Sure, I'd love to" I reply while noticing a certain blush rise on his face.
I kept thinking to myself about our next date. Was it going to be fancy or adventurous? I know I will enjoy myself. Oliver makes me happy and those little things make life great.
Ahhh I loved writing Nicole's point of view. She's essential in this story. Next chapter I promise I'd give you some answers about Minho and we will know how Enzo will feels regarding Minho. Anyhow please vote, comment I'd love to hear your thoughts.
With love
-(INT)Enzo
