I don't know what got into me that day, to be very honest. It just came to me, that I could ask them out - and so I did. To my surprise, they said yes. I couldn't explain my feelings at that point. It was all so.. unrealistic, almost like it was a dream but it was reality.

I didn't know what to feel on our first date. I guess it was kind of awkward seen as we were best friends previously. We took that step forwards and the two of us didn't want to break the relationship we had already. I assume we both were in the same situation, not knowing what to do without making things weird.

It was in a Japanese restaurant; that was where our first date was held. I started out by picking them up. It wasn't all too bad, though the car journey there was a nightmare. I was so nervous that I couldn't really control my body. My hand was constantly tapping against the wheel uncontrollably and the result of that was having red fingers for the rest of the date. They didn't notice anyways. When I got there, I knocked on the door. I don't really remember whether I had flowers or not, but knowing me, if I did, I would've given them fake ones: it was to make sure they wouldn't die and that they'd last for a lifetime.

They opened the door and that's when the awkwardness kicked in. I don't know what I was trying to do but I made some gestures that I wasn't really sure of. I look back at it now and wow, I'm embarrassed. I'm way smoother now, of course (subtly complementing myself here). We ended up just going to the car and swiftly taking off. The ride was nice: there was a peaceful silence. I'm sure it might've been a little off but hey, it was still nice.

Once I'd parked on the side street, I quickly ran around to open the door for them because, well, I'm polite (subtly complimenting myself here again). I also realised that they seemed to be a little chilly - I mean I thought they were. They were shivering. Me being me, I took the opportunity to fulfill my dream of becoming the main character of a kdrama. I quickly took off my jacket and placed it over there shoulders. There's no way to explain how proud I felt. The look on their face just fed my pride. I loved it. They were so flustered and cute. I guess that just one of the many things I began to fall in love with..
