Author's Note: Here's another little something.
Asking Out~
After the show was over, Sheamus decided to wait outside the back doors to see when and if Kaitlyn would arrive. He didn't know why he was waiting for her to come out, he might not have even stood a chance to see her or talk to her, or even ask her on a date for that matter. The Irishman felt like a little schoolboy with his crush. But he had to try, there was something inside of him, and he felt smitten by that young woman.
A few minutes passed and suddenly he heard voices coming, and soon a large group of people walked out. He recognized some of the superstars, but no Kaitlyn, so he waited some more. He had to admit, he had butterflies, and he was extremely nervous. He didn't have to wait long though, because soon the young woman walked out the back door with her heels clicking on the ground. "Excuse me, lass?" Sheamus asked nervously as he felt his palms begin to get sweaty. God, he couldn't believe he was actually doing this. What had gotten into him?
Kaitlyn jumped and spun around with her hand on her chest because Sheamus had scared her, and caused her to drop her bag on the ground and have the contents of it spill out. "Damn it." She muttered as she bent down and began to put her stuff back into the purse. "Thanks a lot." She added.
Sheamus sighed, he had already messed this up. "I'm sorry." He spoke. "Let me help you." Sheamus insisted as he too bent down and began helping her pick up her stuff.
"You really know how to give a girl a heart attack, eh?" She asked half jokingly as she looked up and locked eyes with the ginger as they picked up her items that lay on the ground.
"Actually... Ya probably get this a lot, but I was kind of hoping you would let me buy you a drink or something like that." He spoke as he rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly.
Kaitlyn sighed and her smile faltered a little bit. "Sheamus... You seem like a really nice guy, but..." Kaitlyn trailed off as her hazel eyes glanced up and she saw the Irishman's face fall slightly. Did he really like her?
"It's okay, I understand." He replied and he began to walk away. She stood there and bit her lip, hating to watch him go. He was a nice guy, who wanted to take her out and have a good time with her. She never got asked out like that.
"Sheamus, wait!" She called out and he turned around with a smile. "I changed my mind!" She said as she caught up to the man.
He smiled down at her, "Your chariot awaits, lass." He added as he intertwined his arm with hers and led her to his car where they began to drive to a nearby bar. They small talked along the way; finding out they had a lot in common.
Once at the bar, the two only had a few drinks until it began to get late, "I'd like to stay longer, but I have to be up early in the morning." She said with a sad smile.
"No worries, I'll take you home." Sheamus offered with a smile, Kaitlyn returned the smile and the two were on their way to Kaitlyn's home. It was a first that she had been taken out with some sleeze trying to get into her pants. She respected Sheamus for that, he didn't seem the type to just pick up random chicks. He seemed genuinely interested in her, and she was glad.
The blonde navigated him until finally they reached the right destination, "Looks like we're here." Kaitlyn pointed out and the car skidded to a stop.
"Would ya like me to walk you to the door?" Sheamus offered.
"No that's okay, this is fine." Kaitlyn replied. "I had fun though, we should do this again." She smiled. Sheamus returned the smile. Was this really happening to him.
"Ah yeah, for sure." He said as Kaitlyn handed him her card.
"Don't be afraid to call." She said with a wink and she kissed him on his bearded cheek, then headed up to her cozy front porch and Sheamus watched as she entered the house. He was glad that he had gained the courage to ask her out, because hopefully now he would get to see a lot more of her.
