I was never one for blind dates. I tried a few times and ended up with great stories with titles like "The one with the fish hand", "The crazy zookeepers son", "The one who cheated on me before we finished the date", and so on, with some that are worse.... Anyways there was no way I would ever go on another blind date, even as my friend Olivia tried to convinced me otherwise.
"Liv! We have been through this before!! There is no fucking way I'm ever going on a date with a guy I haven't met beforehand.""Yes! And I totally get that,.... for any other guy, BUT! But. This one is going to be gold for sure. I swea-"
"Hell. No."
"Y/N! Please, come on, trust me! This guy is going to be amazing. You'll be so happy and you'll be thanking me. I swear."
"Liv. You have said this the past 5 times, and every time was some freak I had to sit through dinner with! And 2/5 times they "forgot their wallet." so now I'm lonely and slightly broke. So no."
" okay yes, I have screwed up in the past"
"Yes. Horribly."
"yeS. We know that. But as I said. This guy really is great and you should really give him a chance. I have heard amazing things."
"Okay... fine" you say as you smile slightly.
"YAY! REAL-"
"Fuck no.", you reply once more as you drop your smile, gather your things and walk to your room.
"You'll never find someone if you don't try y/n!"
"Thanks for that vote of confidence ."
———————next day———————-
"Good morning Liv" you groggily say as you pour yourself iced coffee."Good morning.." she says trailing off.
You narrow your eyes.
"What..." you ask not even really wanting to know the answer."LOOK. I'm being super honest when I say he is a nice guy and people only have great things to say about him I swear he isn't a creep and he is polite I assume- you literally never give anything a try just trust me on this I can even devise an escape plan for you if you really need it just please go on the date I love you and want you to be happy." She seemed to blurt out in not even one full breath, now staring at me with pleading eyes.
"Fuckin hell Liv" you reply as you press your temples with both hands.
There was a pause in the conversation as you breathe out harshly and sip your (really good) coffee.
"Fine. I will go, but I swear to god if anything is even slightly weird or off putting I'm leaving and coming home to kick your ass. I love you, but you drive me up the fucking wall.""You wont regret it!" Liv chirps back, now in a better mood, "also the date is this Wednesday so start getting an idea of what you want to wear and practice being nice."
"You already said I would go??"
Liv just smiles meekly and quips the same line of how I would be thanking her. That girl is delusional.
———————Wednesday———————
Ugh. The date is tonight. I guess I had been dreading it a bit, but also a small part of me had hope and was a bit excited that maybe this would finally be the exception to my dry love life. We will see.
"Okay Im heading out, I will see you tonight. Remember to have your phone on if I need a way out.""Okay I will, try to have fun"
"Will do" you say as the door slammed shut.
