"Actually, I was thinking, do you want to, uh, go get some coffee in that coffee shop that we met in, or something?" He says, the day we met I concluded that the nervousness around him makes him cute,
"Oh, yes, sure, I would like that." I say, breaking out into a smile,
"Meet you there?" He confirms,
"Wait, Right now?" I ask, his spontaneity taking me by surprise,
"Um, yeah, right now. I mean, I that's okay with you?" He says, and I can imagine him blushing a little from the other line,
" oh, uh, y-yeah, yeah, okay." I say, going along with him and his ways,
He hangs up the phone, and I get dressed, seeing as I just got out of the shower.
