"Alright, here's the deal – "

"Santana?" Wes groaned – he couldn't even remember answering the phone – it was that early. "That you?"

"No, it's the tooth fairy," her snarky tone answered – but he could hear the laughter she was trying to bite back. "Of course it's me. Now, Other Other Other Asian… No, I can't call you that, it'll get too confusing and Captain Hook's not gonna work once your shoulder's mended. Ah, fuck it, it's too early in the morning to come up with anything good so… for now… Wes."

He was laughing. "Breathe, babe."

"Right. Well, listen up." Ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous. "I like you. You obviously like me. I happen to be in the rather unfortunate position of liking you enough to not want to screw things up. But here's the thing, Wes – I don't do so well with being dominated or looked after like a kid learning hacer pipi, comprende?"

And she could take care of herself. "Uh…"

"So, here's the deal. You. Me. Tomorrow night… I'm not meeting you at my place, so don't even bother. You can pick me up outside BreadStix."

"I… uh…" He swallowed. Think unsexy thoughts, think unsexy thoughts… "I can't drive yet, Santana."

"Well, you'll just have to work something out, won't you?" Her tone was so sweet. So sexy… No! Rebecca Black without autotune. Rebecca Black with autotune. Um… Mr Val in his underwear… "So, what say you?"

Mitt Romney… "NIFF MAKING OUT!" … Shit…

"What?"

Crap! "Uh… Yeah, sounds great." Well done, Wes. Smooth. Real smooth.

"Sweet. I'll see you tomorrow at 7 then." He could the smile in her voice. "Oh, and Wes?"

"Yeah…"

"It's gonna be cold. I'd suggest leather of some description."

Wes moaned as the call dropped out, before breaking into a huge grin. Tomorrow was going to be… interesting...

Because Carbon65 put the idea in my head, and Different Child desperately wanted something posted... So, like promised, you'll get the actual date (and leather!) as a reward... but here's this to actually prompt you, I suppose... Plus, you know... it's Westana. Go watch the less-than-a-second of them in Silly Love Songs if you don't believe me!

So yes. There will be a date. And possibly smut, depending on my mood, but we'll see how we go for the time being.

Let me know how it goes though, yeah? Because this is... very different to what I'm used to writing... is probably the best way of putting it.

And... back to the study I go. Three more lectures from the microbiologist-who-really-shouldn't-pretend-to-be-a-geneticist. Because I still don't know which thing gets phosphorylised in the TCS, and it's kinda slightly important... Anyone else in the middle of exams?

Like it? Hate it? Want a stampede of overgrown butterflies to come snatch me away tomorrow? (Because nobody blames the butterflies...) Please let me know!

Keep smiling! :D
