Buzz, buzz. I look at my phone the next morning and see a text from Rory.
R- Lima Bean, 15 mins? I have free period this morning.
A-Sure, I'll be there.
R- u better
I rushed around trying to get ready. When I went to leave I saw Blaine was still asleep. Not wanting to wake him I scribbled a quick note telling him I'd be back before class. With that I locked the door and ran out to Blaine's car and took off for the Lima Bean.
“So here's my number, so call me maybe!” I sang at the top of my lungs as I pulled into the coffee shop. I saw him before I even walked in. he was sitting at a table in the front next to a window. He saw me and gave a small wave. “Hey,” he stood up to give me a hug, “want a drink?” he asked. “Sure.” we walked over and stood in line.
“How was your week Rory?” I asked as we were waiting. “Not as good as yours I'm guessing. I'm so happy for you, your the first and only female Warbler! Oh, um, I'll have a medium drip, you Aleigha?” he looks at me. “I'll have the same.” I pull out my wallet, “No, no, no! I've got this.” I felt as a blush rose on my cheeks, I turned so he wouldn't see.
We walk back to our seats and start talking about everything and anything. This is so easy, I think to myself, he's so sweet. “Aleigha? Aleigha?” “Oh, I'm sorry, I was... thinking, what did you say?” “I wanted to know if you wanted to catch a movie tonight? The Avengers is still out, if you wanna...” his voice faded away and you could tell he was nerves. “Of corse I will Rory! Don't sound so worried.”
His smile grew as we sat and talked, I finally looked down to see it was 10 till 9. “Oh crap! I need to go. Call me at lunch okay? We will discuss to night.” I didn't even give him a chance to answer, O had 10 minuets to get to class.
“Mrs. Anderson, your late.” “I'm sorry Mr. Walker. It won't happen again.” I ran to my seat and pulled out my Biology book and look to Blaine who sat next to me. His eyes asked where I was and I mouthed “tell you later.” and with that we looked up front and listened to our lesson.
After Bio I had free period, I was sitting in the Warbler practice reading Harry Potter: The Goblet of Fire and quietly singing along to my iPod. I didn't hear when Blaine entered the room.
“Id take my foot, My little foot, And with that foot, Oh, how Id start to shake” I jumped when I heard Blaine start singing along with me. “Why do you like my music so much? I was young, stupid, when I wrote those. Wishing I could make it on Broadway, With a stupid musical.” He looked really upset. I stood up and walked over to him and sat down and just hugged him. “They are wonderful, I honestly can't go a day without listening to at least one.”
He smiled and hugged me back, all of a sudden our hugged turned into him squeezing me with a death grip. “So where were you this morning. I wake up to see you gone, my keys gone, and a note just saying you would be back, and you weren't. So? Spill.”
“Rory,” he stopped me dead sentence “I should of known.” I stuck my toung out at him and started back up. “ANYWAY! Rory texted me this morning and asked me to meet him at Lima Bean, and we did. We hung out and talked and he asked me out.” I said that last part so fast and quiet hoping he didn't hear, it didn't succeed. “He WHAT?” Blaine asked a little to over the top. “He asked me out, I said yes. We are going to see a movie tonight, after Warbler practice. Why? You have a problem with that?” he laughs at me. “No, I've been waiting to see how long it would take y'all to start dating. Guess it wasn't long.” his smile was growing and so was his noise level.
“SHHHH” I yelled, “Don't laugh so loud!” after that we were both in a fit of giggles. “Alright. Lets get you to your next class, we don't want you late twice in one day do we?” “Of corse we do!” I laughed and we started off into the hall way.
“Blaine? Can we propose your Hogwarts song? PLLEEAASEEEE? I think it would be a great number at sectionals.” I ask with my best puppy dog face. “You need to work on your dog face little 'cuz, but I'll suggest it.” he smiled and pushed me toward my class, “I'll see you at lunch Blaine.” I smiled at him and with that he was gone.
