The Date
Just as planned, Brendon and Dallon met at the Starbucks right outside campus at 6. They ordered their coffee and say in a booth in the corner.
"What happened to your hand cutie?" Brendon felt his face go warm. What? Usually Brendon was the smooth one and now he's over here blushing.
"Oh uh... I got mad and the wall was the closest place to punch.." Dallon laughed a little. "Well then I know not to piss you off." They both laughed.
"So, how do you like Parkway so far?" Brendon asked taking a drink of his coffee. "It's cool. The campus has a cool set up, the guys here are pretty cute." Dallon winked at Brendon who looked down smiling trying to hide his blush.
"Also, I'm not just a fuckboy who throws around pet names to random guys. I just think it's really cute when you blush."
Brendon smiled at Dallon. "So how did you know it was me in the hall? We had never met before."
"I don't know actually. When I seen you I just felt an immediate connection." Brendon felt his heart skip a beat and his stomach flutter. Brendon blushed for the 100th time today.
Dallon laughed and Brendon agreed that it was the cutest thing he has ever heard. "I swear you are the most adorable thing ever."
And now it was time for Dallon to blush. All of a sudden they heard an "AWE" from the front counter. They looked up and seen Halsey.
"I thought you worked night shift today?" Halsey walked over to them. "I'm working 5to 5" "Oh. Well I'm gonna guess that you were totally stalking us then?" Halsey looked away.
"Maybe..." They all laughed. "Alright I have to get back to work. Later guys." Halsey went back behind the counter and started taking orders.
"So do you want to go into town?" Brendon smiled. "Yeah." Dallon stood up and held out his hand, which Brendon accepted.
Right as they were about to walk out, Mr. Ryan Ross walked in. Him and Brendon locked eyes for a split second before turning away and going to Dallon's car. He felt Ryan's eyes on him the whole way out.
After a short drive in comfortable silence they arrived at a park. It was just starting to get dark and all the street light came on.
They got out of the car and began walking around the park. They walked around and talked, mostly about bands, interests in life, stuff like that.
After a few minutes, Brendon worked up the courage to hold Dallon's hand. Usually Brendon was Mr confidence when it came to dates, but something about Dallon changed that.
He didn't want Dallon to just be another person that he dated for a month then left without another thought.
But he also didn't want to get to attached because he knew if he did, he would end up like Ryan. Brendon wanted Dallon to mean something.
Time went by in a flash, and it was already 10. They started to make their way back to the car until Dallon stopped.
He took both of Brendons hands, careful with his hurt one, and looked him in the eyes. He was convinced that if he stared into those big brown orbs long enough that he could get lost in them.
Brendon thought he felt his heart stop when he felt one of Dallon's hands come up to the side of his face.
Before either of them knew it, they were kissing. And there wasn't any lust in the kiss, it was an innocent yet meaningful kiss that they both would described as perfect.
When they pulled away they stared at each other for a second. Brendon broke the silence, only speaking in a whisper. "That was..." "Perfect..." "Yeah..."
After a few more seconds they walk back to the car. They were still holding hands the whole way home.
