30 Days of Us

Day 2:

Day 2:

From: Dani (the guy one😘)

So what about that date

To:

Wait who are you.

To:

NO IM KIDDING HAHAHAHA sure what time

From:

That was plain mean. For that I'm giving you 20min >:(

To:

AHHH OKOK WAIT AH WAIT OMG. O.o

I dash around the room in lightning speed, trying to put eyeliner on quickly.

Do you know how tough that is?

Anyway, I slip on the cutest dress I can find, grab a cardigan, kiddy heels, and a hairband.

OH CRAP MASCARA.

So I run back, and grab my mascara, trying not to mess up, or break the stick. I dump my lip gloss in a pouch, putting on my shoes before walking out of my condominium (not moved into my dorm yet.) (Liam Payne is my brother. He has that kind of money. I don't abuse it I swear.) while putting on lip gloss. I hear a beep coming from a few levels down and quickly make my way down the lift.

"Hey!" I whisper breathlessly as I open the car door.

"Hey!" He cheers, turning to give me a side hug. I hastily return it, adjusting myself.

"Seem a little frazzled there."

"20 minutes is a very short time."

"Well sorry, I just finished a shoot so I look good enough" he smirks, "for a date." He winks.

"Well pyjamas is not date worthy attire, so no, I wasn't ready."

"Aww, well you look nice."

"Oh... um... yeah. Thanks." I stutter, blushing a little.

The car soon pulls over at a café.

"Didn't think you'd like fancy stuff."

"Well, you got that right."

"Oh, Emma says hi."

"What?" I let out a breath "That was just random."

"Well... um. Yeah. Anyways, here we go!"

I shake my head and open the door to a pouting Dani.

"What?"

"You didn't let me open the door for you." I face palm and shove Dani playfully.

"I can do it myself. Anyhoo, why'd you bring me here?"

A sly smirk is all I get in return as Dani opens the door for me and shoots me a 'yay-now-we're-even' look. Some sort of girlish mumble that's supposed to sound like 'whatever' escapes my lips.

We order and fall into a silence.

An awkward one.

UGH FIRST DATES WHY THE HELL DO THEY EXIST AGAIN??

"There's always a first for everything, my- ehh- um-" Dani stutters as he tries to find a word that balances out between not to far fetched and not insulting.

"It's okay. We'll start as friends, I guess?" Dani's eyes shift.

"Yeah. So anyways," the topic is dropped as soon as it is brought up.

After a while, we fall into a casual small talk, but it's still tense.

"Hey," I say after another period of awkward silence "why did Shakespeare use pens and not pencils?"

Dani raises an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Because he didn't know if it was 2B or not 2B."

Dani stares at me like I'm crazy for 5 seconds before bursting into his melodious laughter. "God, I don't know how it took me so long!"

I smile back, thanking my lucky stars that the tension is finally broken.

--------

"Let me take you somewhere." I tilt my head questioningly at Dani and his outstretched hand. "It's a surprise," he explains. I shrug and take his hand, making sure we payed before heading out. Passing by a sneaky camera or two, we get in the car and Dani drives, seeming to make many unnecessary turns before reaching this weird rock that's on top of everything.

"So I lied about the no fancy thing..." Dani rubs the back of his neck awkwardly as he shies away.

"Wow," is all I can get out when I see it. It's a complete view of the area near my school. I see my campus, and the greenery around me, as well as some lake of sort behind.

Wait.

"Since when was there any water source near this place?!" I yell, disrupting the peace with my outburst.

"Um, there always was?"

"Are you kidding?? It's my graduating year and THEN I find out?!" I exclaim.

"Well I'm glad that I was if help."

I do some random dancing and stuff, as the sun starts to set. I giggle a bit more till I see Dani staring out into the sunset.

Ladies?

Be. Jealous.

I quickly snap a photo.

I HAVE A PHOTO.

BE JEALOUS.

"Done dancing?"

I shrug. "If you call it that."

"Here." And there is a photo of me dancing.

Well, isn't karma a female dog.

I must admit, it's pretty. My head is tilted upwards so the sun blocks out my face, replacing it with sparks of gold. My hands are outstretched and I'm spinning on one leg, my hair resting on my shoulders in a spin.

"Oh. That's cute. Good photographic skills there, eh?"

"Nah, you're the photogenic one."

It all ends in a fit of giggles and chuckles, and maybe a first kiss.

Or two.
