. time forgets me .

Deep breath. Inhale. Exhale. Repeat.

Mike wasn't used to panicking over things, at least outwardly. Usually he could cram all of his worries or fears down and then deal with them later, or just reassure himself that everything would turn out fine. But hell, dates just make him nervous.

Especially when one is going on a date with Edward Cullen, ostensibly one of the most sought after guys at Forks High. And you happen to be considered a bit of a social outcast because you're that-guy-who-moved-from-Calfornia-bunch-of-surfer-dudes-and-hot-chicks.

Yeah, high school wasn't being very kind to Mike.

But still, a date with Edward Cullen was a big thing. Mike hadn't thought that the other had known he'd existed, but apparently Edward had noticed him a while ago and pegged him down as someone he wanted to get to know but didn't know how too. Alice had solved that with her usual determination and overall friendliness; she'd been the first to extend that hand to him.

It's just dinner... calm down... deep breath...

Inner mantra of deep breaths aside, Mike was pretty excited about the entire thing. He'd been sure that he'd have to keep his sexuality very firmly under wraps until he managed to get into college or university. What he hadn't expected was to land himself what could be a pretty damn good relationship.

So long as the first date went well, and he was right back where he started. It was going to be a long night.

FIN.
