12:00 pm

It was time for lunch and Damien and I had plans to go out and grab something to eat. Not only had we made plans to eat together, but I also made the plan to tell him that I am ready for a relationship, more specifically, a relationship with him. 

I made my way to the room in which his office is, and looked through the doorway to see if he was in the room. As I did that, I felt someone come up behind me and grab my waist. 

"I gotcha." I heard Damien giggle and he placed his head on my shoulder. 

I turned around and gave a big smile and simply stated:

"I'm hungry." 

"Well, let-eth us go forth and fetch-eth some sustenance," Damien replied, pretending to speak in old English. 

He went into the office and I followed him. He grabbed his things, making sure his wallet was in his pocket and saying his farewells to Shayne. 

I get a feeling that Shayne is not that fond of me. He always glares at me and gives me a cold presence. 

Damien and I decided to walk down the strip of streets near the Smosh Office and find something. As we were walking down the strip, we looked into restaurants and the windows of take-out places. We decided on going to a local sandwich shop. I got a corned beef on rye and Damien got a ham and cheese. 

We decided to take out sandwiches back to the office. Damien being the gentleman that he is, carried the bag of food back to the office as I walked on the other side of him. We were talking about our workloads and the fact that Vidcon is coming up faster than we want it to. Damien asked plenty of questions about my editing work and what it is like. We then got quiet and the walk was filled with a comfortable silence. 

I decided to got for it and I reached to the side and grabbed his hand, lacing our fingers together. Damien looked over to me and I just smiled at him. He knew what I was saying in that simple look and I knew what his response was by the glimmer in his eyes. 

We got back to the office, went up to the kitchen, and sat at a table.  We started eating and, about halfway through our sandwiches the conversation I have been waiting for started:

"I'm ready," I stated, looking into Damien's eyes. 

"Really?" He questioned, knowing what I meant. 

"Yeah, I am."

"What made you decide so quickly?" Damien asked, making sure I was in the right mindset. 

"I was thinking late at night when I was watching Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and I saw the connection between Ron and Hermione and I thought to myself, that is like Damien and I. Somewhat destined to be together but the only thing getting in the way is the mindset. Then I started comparing myself to Draco and it went downhill from there. The moral of the story, I was caught up in my head and I need to just let my heart take the lead."

Damien grabbed my hand across the table, the same way he did on our first date. That's right, I admitted it to myself. It was a date.

"I think that is great. I am proud of you." Damien looked into my eyes, giving me a big smile and placing a small kiss on the back of my hand. 

"So....?"

"So...I think that this new information calls for another date!" Damien exclaimed as he raised his hands in the air, punching it. 

As Damien said what he did, I saw Wes walk into the kitchen and his face fell. I knew that he heard what Damien said. 

I felt bad for him, but also not really. I am happy now and that is all that matters. I don't need him, all I need is Damien. 

Damien and I finished our lunch, talking about what to do for a date and then debating the best Harry Potter book. We are nerds okay, give us a break. 

When our lunch break was over, Damien and I went our separate ways, Damien making sure he walked me to my office. 

I had a smile on my face for the rest of the day, and all I could think about was the boy that I am dating.

Hello! 

There is another short chapter today. I haven't had much time for writing lately because I am working at my church's VBS, and then I had to take my ASVAB for the USMC, and finally, I have been practicing my audition pieces for the USMC band. 

Sorry for the bad chapters lately but I plan to do better, especially because we get into dates in the chapters to come. 

So yeah!

Thank you all for reading and I hope you enjoyed the chapter!

See y'all in the next update.

xoxo, 

emily :)
