I think I counted wrong, because I'm releasing three today, and one tomorrow. Oh well, they're almost all here! This one I almost forgot the Christmas aspect of it, so they're seeing a Christmas movie! I'm also introducing Kelsi's roommate, Julia. Enjoy!!
DISCLAIMER: I don't own HSM, or Four Christmases.
"And Maybe Even Hold Hands!"
Kelsi Nielson was a wreck.
Ryan Evans had asked her out on their first date, and she was completely panicking. Technically they had gone to prom, but it was more of a group thing, so there wasn't as much pressure. Now they were going out one on one, and she couldn't be more nervous. She didn't know what to wear, how to do her hair or her makeup. She was sitting at her desk, with her head in her hands, makeup spread on the table in front of her, her clothes were flung all over the room, and a couple of magazines were on the floor, open to various hairstyles. This is what Julia, Kelsi's roommate found, when she walked in.
"I don't know what to do!" Kelsi was moaning a few minutes later. "I have absolutely no experience in this whatsoever, and I know I'm going to do or say something stupid, and completely mess it all up!"
"Oh come on Kelsi," was Julia's reply. "This is Ryan! The guy you've known and been friends with even before you came to college. Trust me; it's not going to be that bad! Besides, you're always comfortable around him. And don't worry; I'll help you with your appearance."
"Thanks, but that's only half the problem! I don't even know what you are supposed to do on dates!" Kelsi cried.
"Well, it's dinner and a movie right?" Julia asked. When Kelsi nodded, she continued. "So then, during dinner, you guys talk about whatever. That shouldn't be a problem for you, because you two never seem to shut up in class, and always get in trouble." Noticing Kelsi was smiling and relaxing, she continued. "When you're done with the dinner, he'll probably insist on paying; let him on the first date. Then you'll walk to the movie, because it's pretty close. You might even hold hands!" Kelsi let out a reluctant giggle. "Now, you're seeing the movie Four Christmases, right? Well, it's mostly comedy, so I don't think you'll have any make out scenes yet. He may kiss you good night, but you like him, right?" Kelsi nodded. "Well there you have it! Are you worried now?"
"Actually, no. Thanks so much Julia!" Kelsi exclaimed, giving her friend a huge hug.
"All right!" Julia exclaimed. "Now let's get you date-ready!"
Kelsi walked slowly to the lobby where she would be meeting Ryan. She had on a dress, her hair was curled, and she had on more makeup than she normally would wear. She saw Ryan waiting, looking rather dashing in his pressed khaki's and dress shirt. He turned and smiled at her, and all her worries disappeared. Julia was right. It was just Ryan, and now he was grabbing her hand, and their date was starting. And it exactly how Julia had described it happening.
R&R Please!!
