I walked down the staircase trying not to smile too wide. I was excited and nervous. I found That as I neared the end of the stairs the butterflies in my stomach only got worse.
I managed to calm them until I looked up to find Damian gawking at me. I felt my face heat up as he refused to cease staring.
"Wow." He breathed out. God Damian what are you doing to me. I blushed. Wait, no. This isn't happening.
"Damian, shut up and open the door for me," I laughed. "So far you're definitely not second date worthy."
He scowled which only made me laugh more.
We were dropped off at the cinema by Alfred and Damian was immediately recognised by all the young girls. I was getting a mixture of scowls and greasies. Seriously?
Damian noticed how it made me uneasy and put an arm around me. Human contact may not be my thing but I actually liked it. "Just ignore them."
"That is the most cliché thing to say." He chuckled, still holding me.
The movie was about some sort of highly trained, expendable assassin. May be a shock but I'm not really into action movies. They never really capture what it's really like. I don't pretend to be a top fighter but fighting does not look like that. But that's just my opinion.
Damian bought a large popcorn. I had no idea what I was missing out on. Movie popcorn is the best. It definitely beats the microwaved popcorn Tim use to make when we'd have our movie nights.
I probably left so many crumbs on Damian while I was eating though! I leant on his shoulder the whole night. But then I had to ask a stupid question.
"Why'd you kiss me? And don't say 'because I like you' or something sappy like that." He sat there thinking for a moment, I guess it was more like he was debating over whether or not he should say. But he did.
"Why not?"
"What?" That's exactly what Hunter said.
"I said why not? I've had a crush on you for years so why not? Am I not allowed to kiss you?"
"No you can kiss me." I said that way to quickly. He planted a kiss gently on my cheek and chuckled.
" You're funny." He put an arm around me again. "Am I second date worthy yet?"
"Definitely."
