He pulled me through the front door of Dave&busters. Like damn it was crowded. Never had I seen so much variety of people in one place. You have the goth/emo people in one corner and you have the preppy girls in the next. I really shouldn't say I have anxiety but I do. I can't stand to be around people sometimes, they just ughhh.....make me want to rip my head off.
He walks over to the coin machine and pays the object twenty dollars. It spits out a gazillion coins. He hands me half the stack.
"Here you are my lady" he says gallantly. I blush
"Oh why thank you my good sir" I say as I courtesy him. We both giggle.
"So what game shall we start with?" He asks
"Uhhhh. You pick. I don't know what half these games are." He drags me to a game called dance dance revolution. I assume we are supposed to dance at this game.
"Keegan, now I apologize for anything you see that isn't pleasing to the eye. Specifically talking about my dancing" I let out a nervous laugh as I say this.
"Oh come on, you can't be that bad"
"Aha ha ha haha. No I'm serious. Like if taylor swift and Kanye west had a child together, thennnn that's what my dancing is like. Horrendous " I stutter to say
"Oh just try it you wimp" he playfully punches my arm. So he enters the tokens into the machine and the object lights up. The voice over tells us to follow the arrows on screen. I try and keep up with the pace and I loose my place and just start to pretend to tap dance. Next thing I know I'm lying on the floor and laughing my head off. I wasn't looking where I was dancing and I landed on my ass next to the machine. Keegan looks over at me.
"Oh my god that was the funniest thing I've ever seen. But you okay?" He laughs loudly and gives me his hand. I grab it and he pulls me up.
"Yeah. But don't say I didn't warn you about my dancing. Because I did and you saw what my dancing caused me" I say jokingly.
He looks me directly in the eye and just laughs. He laughs. I don't know whether to take this as a good thing or a bad thing.
"Let's go grab some food and we can continue this dance battle later. But for the record I kicked your ass. Whoop! Whoop!" He puts his hands in the air like he's dancing to music.
"Uhh I'll have a burger and fries please. Oh and with a coke" Keegan replies to the waitress. She looks at me expectantly.
"I'll have the same" I hand her the menu giving her a nonchalant smile.
" so jane"
"Yeah?" I say
" no boyfriend right ?" He says while taking a sip of his coke.
"Nope. But I'm pretty sure that's why I'm on this date....because I don't have a boyfriend?"
"Ohhhh so this is a date?" He winks. Which makes me blush.
"Oh god. You know this is a date and you can't deny it" I nearly choke on the French fries the waitress Handed me.
"Touché" he says
" no girlfriend eh?" I mimic him
"Nope. I'm a single Pringle and I'm ready to mingle" he and I both giggle.
"Wow. That just came out of your mouth. Okayyyy" I say making fun of him. We finish our meals and sit at the booth.
"Whatya say we head back to the games and find another one....but a game that doesn't involve you landing on your ass, if there is a game like that. " I playfully hit his arm when he mumbles the last part.
After hours of having buttloads of fun, we decide to call it quits. He walks my out to his car and opens the door for me.
"Whyyyy thank you" I say surprised. Peter never opened a single door for me. He would walk through a door and then close it forgetting that I was behind him. Ha. What a gentlemen. We arrive at my house and he tells me he had an amazing time. He starts to lean in and stops, almost waiting for me to
Close the gap between us. Finally I give in and I kiss him hard, right on the lips. We continue like this for a minute or two. I pull away.
"I should probably go inside now" I blush and I rush to get out of the car.
"Hey jane? Text me okay? I want to do this again"
"Yeah sure okay" I nod and smile.
