#14: 'First date'- Blink 182

Ashton: "In the car, I just can't wait to pick you up for our very first date. Is it cool if I hold your hand? Is it wrong if I think its lame to dance?"

As I drove down the road I felt, not only relieved, but also nervous that there wasn't much traffic at this time of the day and that almost every single light I had passed by was green. This meant that I was going to arrive to pick her up earlier than I expected, which was both exciting and terrifying.

Anxious thoughts invaded my mind as I got closer to my destination. Since I asked her on a date I have been fantasizing and planing my moves and the things that I was going to say to her, but now that the time had finally arrived, and everything felt completely real, I knew I was going to end up looking like a fool in front of her. Like, I had planned out to hold her hand but, what if I do and my hand its all sweaty and it disgusts her? Or what if she thinks its too early for that?

Not just that, ideas that I couldn't have possibly thought about before, popped in my mind now, threatening to make me believe this was going to be a complete disaster. For instance, the place I was going to take her always put good music. What if she wanted to dance? Or even worst, what if she wanted me to dance?

I shook my head, trying to keep those thoughts out of my head and turned on the radio to distract myself and just hoped everything turned out right, despite all the stupid thoughts and ideas I had come to imagine.

Michael: "Do you like my stupid hair? Would you guess that i didn't know what to wear. I'm too scared of what you think..."

I stood in front of the mirror again and sighed. I was such an idiot. It was almost time for me to leave and I was still wandering in my room, worrying about nothing more and nothing less than my appearance.

I ran my right hand through my recently died hair. I hoped she liked the color this time. Ashton had helped me pick it up after all; although its not like he usually made the right decisions when it comes to fashion and looks.

I sighed again and adjusted my leather jacked around my shoulders. I don't know when I picked this outfit out or how did I do it, all I know is just some hours ago I was rumbling through my closet and drawers, making a bigger mess of my already messy room and wondering what on earth would be appropiate for tonight's occasion. And now, here I am, hoping she likes it as well.

I was scared. Scared that she didn't liked how I looked, and scared that she might reject me because of that. I sighed again and stared at the clock. It was time. There was no going back now...

Calum: "Let's go, don't wait, this night's almost over. Honest, lets make this night last forever..."

As we walked towards the car with our hands locked together, comfortable silence filling the air between us, I just couldn't stop myself from thinking that all the embarrassment and humiliation I felt when I walked up to her two days ago and asked if I could take her on a date was definitely worth it.

I glanced over at her and a smile escaped my lips, almost instantly. Maybe it was because she had taken extra care of her appearance today, or because after spending time with her, I was seriously falling head over heels now, although the reason didn't really matter, because today, she looked as perfect as she could be; more beautiful and more angelical than ever.

"Are you taking me home now?" She said, turning her head to meet my glance, as if she knew I was already staring. The sudden and unexpected nature of that random question caught me off guard.

"Umm... yeah. I mean, I was gonna... but... but if you want to, we could..." I stuttered, but she interrupted me before I could properly answer her question.

"Never mind" there was another short moment of silence, really awkward this time, 'till I decided finally to ask:

"Why? Is there some specific place you want me to take you before?" She shook her head.

"No. It's just... I'm having so much fun, and I thought... I don't know, maybe we could go some place else. To make this last, you know? To enjoy ourselves to the fullest."

"But its almost curfew" I protested, not wanting to get in trouble with her parents the night of our first date.

"We still have time'' she said after glancing at her phone to check the hour. The look in her eyes; a mixture of appeal and hope, got me good. I had to give in.

"What are we waiting for then? Let's go make this night last forever" I said before taking off running towards the car, dragging her with me.

Luke: "When you smile I melt inside..."
"Please don't look at me with those eyes..."
"I dread the thought of our very first kiss, a target that I'm probably gonna' miss"

"Oh my God, Luke, this is amazing!" she squealed excitedly, staring up at me.

Her eyes were wide and sparkly and she had a smile so bright and genuine that made me feel like my insides were melting. I smiled sweetly at her.

"Sorry, I got a bit too excited" she laughed nervously and I noticed a light shade of pink coloring her cheeks, even though she was staring down at her feet to prevent me to see her. I placed a finger under her chin to make her face my way again and smiled at her once more.

"Don't be ashamed. You actually look very cute" her smile was back and with it, a whole family of butterflies inside my stomach.

We just stood there, staring into each other's eyes in complete silence, with stupid smiles plastered on our faces, until I noticed she started leaning in towards me. My heartbeat accelerated and my smile instantly faded as I looked away from her.

<<Well done, Luke>> I thought to myself. Its not that I didn't wanted to kiss her, but the very thought of it made me so nervous that it almost terrified me. I was sure that I was going to miss my chance of kissing her tonight.

Hello guys!

So, we're extremely sorry. It's been so long since we posted a preference, but it's been kind of hard to update daily since we've both been working hard on our separate works and lots of stuff have happened lately, not to mention that this was a really long and exhausting week, so I tried to make it up to you with a slightly longer pref. Hope you liked it! (Even though I think it was a bit lame)

I don't know, I've always liked that song. Am I the only one who finds it extremely cute? Yes? Okay. Lol. Let is know if you want another song preference like this one and recommend songs or topics or whatever; sometimes we lack creativity too.

Anyways, remember to vote, comment, request, share, recommend, follow and do anything to make this book (and ourselves too, lol) famous and well-known! Just kidding, but we would really appreciated it if you did.

So yeah, I guess that's it.
Keep being awesome!

Julie and Zoe xX

P.S. Don't expect another preference in this next upcoming days, we're still very busy and we need to catch up and all, but you can still entertain yourself by reading our latest preferences and books! Enjoy!
