Pisces POV:

Act cool, smile, don't stutter, and finish your project early so you can spend some time together. Good plan, now all I have to do is follow it.

*********************************************************

Aquarius POV:

After spending a good hour on what to wear I decided to stick with jean shorts and a pink T-shirt. I slipped on my black converses and headed out.

Pisces already sent me the address last night which made it easier for me to find the place.

10 minutes later.....

As I entered the cafe, my eyes spotted Pisces sitting in the corner. He wore black ripped jeans with a plain white T-shirt.

He notices me coming and waved to me. Our eyes met, making my face burn and my hands super clammy. My feet gave up as soon as I sat on the chair.

"Hey," I said. I had gathered all the nervousness and shoved it into the corner of my head.

"Hi Aqua," he said coolly. He kept steady eye contact with me. However, I'm super shy, so I turned and looked at the table instead.

******************************************************

Pisces POV:

Somebody help me. I am going to die. I'm stuck, I can't stop looking at her.

I 'm screwed. Has she noticed yet? Why can't I move my eyes from her?

Nervousness was taking over me. Even saying "Hi Aqua" drained my energy half way.

"So why don't we order some drinks." Aquarius began.

"Yeah let's do that. What do you want?" I asked.

"Hmm....I'll have a Caramel Frappuccino." She looked at me smiling.

"Sounds great I'll get them." I left the table to order our drinks.

5 minutes later.....

"Here." I handed Aqua her drink while I sat down on my chair.

"Thanks, oh and by the way I'll pay for my drink. I don't want to be a burden for you." She looked at me.

"It's fine I'll pay," I said.

"No, I will," she insisted. She lightly slammed her hand on the table and looked at me intently. This was the first time she made eye contact since we came here. She didn't blush and look away, so I knew she wouldn't back down on this.

Being a gentleman to her was going to be hard.

**********************************************************

Aquarius POV:

After 3 hours of working on the project, we finally finished.

"Woah," I said looking at the mess we made.

"We have to clean up, or they're going to kick us out of here." I started picking up supplies and he followed my lead.

"So Aqua, I was wondering whether you want to hang out later. You know, other than just for school projects?" he asked while picking up the color pencils.

My head lifted and looked at him shocked.

Did he just say what I thought he said?

"Sure." I grinned at him.

He looked up and grinned right back.

***********************************************************

Pisces POV:

"YES", I blurted out.

The words had just slipped out and I was regretting opening my big mouth when she had said sure.

" Uh, I mean, I'll text you tonight." I waved and left the cafe.
