The next morning..'Which one should I wear? White or the black ones?'
Norman was stressing himself out over the chosen outfit. He felt like his confidence left him alone, just by thinking that after an hour, he'll be going out with Emma. It made him anxious yet happy at the same time.
'How am I suppose to start a conversation with her later? Hi? Way too.. ugh. I'm sorry for not walking with you yesterday? Nope. That's a weird one and way too informal. She'll feel awkward if I do that.'
He's a genius and a cool type of person, but he literally lost it by thinking of a certain gingerhaired.
Blushing a bit, he decided to wear a black hoodie and white ripped jeans along with a pair of sneakers. Pretty simple but looks good on him, for it compliments his platinum hair.
He decided to put on his wrist watch as well. Norman may be the nerd type, but he knows how to 'style' himself and definitely not the person who is clueless of what 'Aesthetic' and 'modern style' means.
He's a teen afterall, and the gang hanging around with Gilda, the fashion and aesthetic queen really did help much. He averted his ocean blue eyes on the wall clock hanging on his room.
10:30 AM
One hour left and he's feeling nervous already!
'Should I text her? Yeah, that will do.'
After confirming the situation, Norman didn't waste another minute. He may be nervous, but deep down, he's been waiting to see Emma.
---------------
The orange haired girl couldn't stay still. Walking right to left, and left to right. She's excited of course! But a part of her is getting anxious by the thought of seeing the guy.
'Do I look okay?' She asked herself silently, looking at the mirror once more to check her outfit. Yesterday, when the others are busy doing their errands, Gilda dragged her at the nearby clothing store. She saw various styles and thought that maybe getting two or three won't hurt.
Bzzzt.
Her phone vibrated, and she knew immediately it was Norman. Reading his message made her face go red a bit, and her heart just won't stop beating a little faster than usual.
Emma hurriedly went outside, only to find the Grace Field's council president, leaning on his white BMW car.
'W-woah.'
The moment he saw Emma, he was stunned seeing her like that. She wore a loose orange sweatshirt, and black shorts along with her white sneakers. He thought that she looks very cute in it.
"Hello Normaaan!" She greeted with her signature smile.
The poor boy was blushing so hard, and Emma isn't that dumb and stupid not to notice his reaction, which triggers her to have her face red as well. Unnoticed by Norman, she quickly scanned him from head to toe, inwardly admiring him from his looks.
"H-hey Emma." He stutted a bit, and opened the door for her. She just blushed after acknowledging his gentle gestures but didn't say anything else.
Who would have thought that Norman can drive as well? She thought he can be anyone he wants. An epitome of perfection. With excellent leadership, good marks, attractive features, anything. You name it.
He got inside as well, started the engine and drove to their destination.
"You look good." Norman suddenly complimented, his cheeks a little bit pink, but he finally composed himself and his ocean blue eyes are now focused on the road.
She complimented back. "Arigatoouuu~ You look good as well Norman! '
Many people told him that before, but if it's Emma who complimented him, it felt quite different. Hers are special.
The way she said that,her voice full of enthusiasm, making Norman chuckled and wonder where did she get all of those. She is definitely a bouncing ball of energy." So, where will we go? "
Emma asked curiously. Afterall, they didn't discussed the details last night.
Both were in bliss by just having the idea of seeing each other for lunch. Knowing Norman, he wouldn't come unprepared. He'll make sure that she's going to enjoy their.. what is this suppose to be? A date?"Mall. Is that okay? They have arcade ther-"
"Hala I waaaaant!! I'll get myself a Giraffe plushie and play the other games as well when we get there!!"
Emma is truly excited which made him smile. Yes he was expecting that reaction from her. She may love clothes like Gilda in some aspects but her kind of fun is something that would make them both create memories and joy.
Few minutes of driving, they arrived in front of tha mall. Emma was way too excited to even wait for Norman to open her door. Plus, no need to be formal like that right? She appreciates his gentle gestures but she also wants to be natural around him.
Emma is not the 'princess-like' type. More of an adventurous side of her reveals her true personality around people.
"Let's gooooo~!" She was grinning the whole time, happiness was evident in her face. They walked having each other on their sides. No more safe distance, no awkwardness.
Just pure excitement swarmed the two. Emma, getting excited for being able to try things she have never done before, and for Norman, joy swarmed his chest by simply seeing her smile like that. A bonus point, it was all because of him.
