Awkward pt. 2

so sorry for the delay! school's been kicking my ass lately

"S-So, you like 80's shir-rts too?"

'WhAtEvEr yOure gOnnA sAy oR dO moM it wiLl nOt woRk, evEr'

Well, not all things are supposed to go your way. And you're mad that it didn't. Some how in some way, your mother got you close to Keith. She made a little sob story to make your heart clench and she knew those were one of your weaknesses, so she took advantage of it.

You didnt quite grasp on about whats happening right now, but all you know is that, the guy youve been looking at for the past family parties, is right here beside you, in a red 80's shirt, with black ripped jeans.

Honestly though, he's quite handsome. From afar he didnt seem like it, but up close? Damn.

"Y-Yeah.. I'm guessing you like renaissance paintings..?" He pointed to your shirt that had a compilation of renaissance paintings, "Y-Yeah.." You scratched the back of your head.

You two just sat in silence, looking at the opposite direction of each other.

'ave maria please save my poor soul'

"Uhm, would you care for a drink?" You, with all of your courage, asked him quickly, "Uh, yeah of course. Wine will do."

Glad that he agreed for a drink (and also glad that you can get away from that awkward situation for a bit), you walked over to the drink section where you see your mother laughing about with her friends.

You pinched your mother on the forearm and she squealed, "Ow! Dear!" You glared at her, a dark aura surrounding you and she just laughed it off.

"How's Keith? Quite handsome no?" If she wasnt your mother, you would've gave her many pinches.

Unfortunately, you couldn't agree more to her statement.

Noticing that you have left the raven haired boy all alone, she asked as to why you did so, "Was there something wrong with him? Is he too perverted? Too much of a nerd? Oh is he-"

You sighed loudly, cutting off your mothers rambling, "No mom, I just decided to get the two of us some drinks." You got the best wine there is on the shelf and poured, grumbling something she couldnt hear.

"Wow! Way to start off a relationship, hun! Y'know, when me and your dad first met, he-" You grabbed the two drinks and walked out of the conversation, "I know that story already mom!"

You tried to walk as slow as you can back to the raven haired boy. 'How can he sit so.... attractively??'

You took a deep breath in, preparing yourself for the conversation, "Here's your drink, a Cabernet Sauvignon." He gave a small 'thank you' as he quickly took a sip.

"I'm more of a Merlot guy, but Cabernet works too." He teased with the corner of his lips tugging a bit upwards, "WhAt? Cabernet is better than Merlot what do you mean?" You asked with some extra-ness in your tone.

Silence ran through the atmosphere, as you sweatdropped with your mind going wild. You could practically see red lights flashing before your eyes; all of your brain cells going, "CODE RED CODE RED"

"UH-" You stopped yourself from rambling out sorries when you heard your convo partner choke out a laugh. The brain cells were high-fiving each other when you made him laugh.

"I have never met anyone so passionate for Cabernet." He said through chuckles. You couldnt stop the blood that flowed through your cheeks as you looked the other way.

Man, the things he does to you.

And you just met him!

You took a sip from your drink, as the two of you settled down. You racked your brain for any other conversation starters; trying not to make the atmosphere like before.

As you were about to ask something, he beat you to it, "So, what school do you go to?" You mentally sighed, thanking the gods up above for not letting out the inane question you were about to ask.

You answered his question with glee, followed by shock when you heard that his school was quite near yours.

★

The night came by in a flash, sooner or later you noticed that about 2 hours have passed since your meeting with Keith. The two of you talked about your likes, dislikes, and other nonsense. Somewhere deep down your soul, you actually regretted the times you turned down your mother's requests to talk to Keith.

This man was so fun to talk to for some reason. From afar, he looked like the type to be so rebellious in school (and deep down you knew that due to some bandages he has.) Yet, the way he talks just makes you so lost in thought, while genuinely listening to him.

Well, kind of listening.

"Uhm, you alright?" Your eyes were filled with stars as you thought about all the amazing things Keith is. 'Oh he would make such an amazing team captain. Hmm, probably a basketball captain? Oh! How about volleyball? WOOH dAMN!'

Just when you were about to imagine him in a volleyball uniform, you saw a hand wave in front of you, knocking you out of the trance you were in, "Are you sleepy? You zoned out there." Shivers went down your spine when you heard his deep voice. 'G-Godamn'

"A-Ah! Yeah, I'm alright." You scratched the back of your neck, "Oh, then-"

"Keith! C'mon say goodbye to your girlfriend, we gotta go home. Its quite late." The two of you stiffened when Keith's mother called the two of you out. Even from far away, you could hear your mother snicker and high five Krolia. 'Mom, I swear..'

"Well, that's goodbye I guess." He chuckled lowly. You didnt want to admit it, but you'll surely miss talking with Keith again. He was so much fun to be wit-

"C-Could we exchange n-umbers...?" Oh. Never mind, you'll surely talk with him again.

"Sure!"
