Seeing Davey

Chapter 4

While shutting the car door that I had opened while thanking Ben, I stared into his deep hazel eyes. My hand traveled to the side of his cheek, pulling him into a kiss. It didn't take long for him to kiss back. The embrace was passionate and ended far too quickly. As I pulled away, I returned my gaze back to Bens' eyes. My hand stayed in place before I realized I should probably go.

"See ya soon"

I hopped out of the car after my short goodbye, not even waiting for a reply from the beautiful man across from me. While Sarah had been doing my makeup, she gave me small dating tips. One of the things that stuck in my brain was "make him want more". I thought I accomplished that pretty well, or at least I had hoped that was the case.

My face had a gigantic smile plastered across it as I closed the door and recapped the whole night in my head. I leaned against the grey-blue colored wall of my kitchen, my lips still tingling (and this time, it wasn't a leg of lamb). I was in complete and utter beatitude.

"Wow, must've been a good date"

Sarah walked into the kitchen and hopped up on the counter, leaning in for what I could only speculate to be for the details of my day.

".... and then I kissed him. I COULDN'T HELP IT!"

We were both laughing, now moved to the living room with glasses of wine. She seemed truly happy for me, and to be honest, I don't think I've ever been this elated, at least not sober.

"Well, did you keep him wanting more? Did you take any of my advice y/n?"

"Oh god, I hope so. He's so.....whats the word...."

"Perfect?" Sarah obstructed.

"Well..... I mean, yeah. I think so."

We talked a little while longer before taking off to bed. I removed the now sweat-worn makeup and removed the clothes from my body. I stayed up for some time in my PJs, sitting in bed and scrolling through Twitter. Being the nosey gal I am, I looked up Ben on my social media.

Plznfanku, I always have loved puns. I scrolled through the account, lots of posts about newsies and all of his friends. I got to the night that I went to see the show and obviously looked all of the tweets over.

"Great show tonight! Seat 109E, wow"

I read the post multiple times, making sure it wasn't just the alcohol or lack of sleep. I screenshotted the section and decided to get some sleep.

Bens POV

"See ya soon"

She practically ran out of the car. But god damn, that kiss was amazing. It ended way too soon. I, for one, could've stayed there with her forever. Even after I pulled into my driveway, I was thinking about it. Thinking about her. Longing for her.

I got out my phone, 10 new messages. Turns out that my best friend, Andrew, had gone on yet another date with some Scott guy and was very excited. I mean, I'm happy for him, but come on! Is he going to tell me about EVERY DATE? I told him a quick little "that's great" and continued on with scrolling through apps. As it turns out, many people were tweeting at the newsies twitter page about the shows. I scrolled through all the nice things, but one post, in particular, stood out. It was from y/n.

"BEST. SHOW. EVER! Great job with casting ;)"

I didn't know if she was talking about me, but lord I hope so. The simplest 7 words made my heart smile, especially coming from her. I put my phone down, deciding I should stop before going into creepy stalker mode and looking at all of her socials. I won't lie, I was already excited for the unplanned next date. Ideas ran through my mind as I drifted off to sleep.
