Sunday came rolling around quite quickly, and you were going to hang out with Joey in about an hour. You planned to go to the movies together then go for lunch. You quickly had a shower, then did your hair and your outfit-

Then you put on some makeup (not a lot) and then texted Joey-

Y/n: meet you there?

Joey: hold on. be there in 10.

Y/n: ???

He left you on read, as you contemplated whether or not you wanted to wait or go. A few moments later you decided you wanted to go, so you began walking to the front door, just as you opened it, you saw Joey standing there. He was wearing this outfit-

He looked at you and smiled.

"What? Did you think that I would just meet you there?"

"Well... it's kind of around the corner," you smirked.

"So? Anyway, let's go," he smiled, then shut the door behind you.

He was acting like such a gentleman, and you loved it. He seemed so nice and easy to talk to. You loved it.

As you both were walking, he quickly grabbed your hand and intertwined your fingers. You looked to him, but he was looking away. You kept staring at him, until he finally looked over to you and smiled. You laughed and shook your head.

"What?" he grinned.

"Nothing," you smiled at the ground.

"Aw, come on, y/n. Tell me," he said.

"Nothing, you're just acting so sweet," you blushed.

"Am I allowed to say, 'well you're the one who I'm trying to impress'?" Joey smiled at you.

'His smile, I swear to God,' you thought to yourself.

"Why are you so nice?" you asked.

"Why are you so beautiful?"

"Oh my God, no,"  you shook your head, disagreeing.

"What? Y/n, you're beautiful."

"Thanks, Joey," you say in a dragging tone.

It was a little quiet as you both walked into the cinema together. Joey paid for all of it and wouldn't let you pay at all.

"Joey, you're so freaking sweet," you blush.

"All for you," he smiles and squeezes your hand.

*IN THE MOVIE THEATRE*

There was nobody else in the movie theatre except you and Joey, since the movie was a few weeks old. You were watching a comedy movie, and you both laughed so much throughout it all. At one point, you laughed then afterwards rested your head on Joey's shoulder. you usually did this with your friends, and they'd usually nudge you off. But when you did this, forgetting it was Joey sitting next to you, he did it back.

Knowing it was Joey, you looked up at him, and he looked down to you.

You both slowly got closer, and Joey leaned in to kiss you. It was a small, yet slow kiss, but it was one of those kisses that gave you butterflies.

His hand went to your face, as you kept kissing. His tongue asked for entrance, but you refused, since you weren't really dating. You pulled away, and he looked at you, confused.

"You okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, it's just a little awkward because, well... I don't know you that well and we aren;t really dating so..."

"Oh yeah, sorry," Joey blushed.

"No, it's okay," you smiled.

*AFTER LUNCH, AT THE PARK NEAR YOUR HOUSE*

You guys took the scenic route home, so that you could spend longer together. After you had shared that kiss, all you wanted was another and even more than a kiss. You felt absolute desire for Joey Birlem.

In the park, you guys were walking. Joey jumped on top of the concrete around a large garden bed in the park, as you were walking on the footpath next to him. He needed support, so he held onto your shoulder.

Your hand went to his on your shoulder and he clasped it and intertwined your fingers.

"So...you know how in the movie how you said you didn't know me very well?" Joey said.

"Do you want to ask each other questions?" you asked.

"Yes," he laughed, "I'll go first."

"Okay, go ahead," you smirked.

"Okay. What's your favourite... animal?" he smiled innocently.

"Hmm... probably something simple, like a turtle," you shrugged, "Do you have any siblings?"

"Yes, I have two sisters," he smiled, "What do you want to be when you're older?"

"I'm not sure yet," you continued, "Who's your celebrity crush?"

"Hmm, I don't really have one," he said, "Do you like anyone?"

"Maybe," you smirked, "Something you want to do?"

"You," he smirked back.
