Hi,
So our second date was amazing… and bizarre. It happened on Sunday, and it was perfect.
After spending the day (naturally, as i’m a girl) freaking out over clothes, I decided on some casual clothes and tried to kill time. Eventually, he turned up at our door, looking as perfect as ever. We hung out at my house for an hour or so hoping that it would stop raining, but as we live in England, notorious for it’s rainy weather, it didn’t. If anything, it got worse. Luckily, He brought an umbrella for us to share as we walked to my mums car (she was giving us a lift to the show!)
The car drive was pretty uneventful. He sat up front with mum giving directions, and my brother and I sat in the back tickling each other, drawing on the fogged up windows and just in general acting like children.
We got to the show eventually, with five minutes to spare. The university had random people whose faces had been painted to look like zombies dotted all over the place, helping and giving directions to the room where the talk was going to happen. We paid and went in.
It was really crowded in the theater. Much more crowded than I thought it would be. The man in charge of the show was Theoretical Zombiologist, Doctor Austin. It was a really fun show with interactive bits, clips, and interesting bits of information. Him and I held hands throughout the show, and only let go to clap or to mimic some action that Doctor Austin made, such as his handwashing technique that helps keep your hands clean. The weirdest ones was the plunger… which looked dodgy. The funniness of the show really made me relax on the date and before I knew, it was over!
While we waited for my mum to come and pick us up, we both had a roll my mum made. He also had a drink. I’d of had one too, but I lost my straw (typical me!). We chatted a bit inside the entrance while watching the rain, an slightly listening in on a bunch of goth kids complaining about some person, which we laughed about later.
Eventually, mum turned up and we clambered into the car. He nearly fell asleep in the car on my shoulder, and it was really cute! We told my mum about the show and chatted among ourselves a bit, the rain still splattering against the car. By this point, it’s around 8pm.
He kissed me really softly, then went back to resting his head on my shoulder. I practically melted at this. He then looked up at me, caught my eye and smiled lazily, which made me melt internally even more (not literally, that would be dangerous!)
After what felt like seconds, we were outside his house. We kissed goodnight, then the date ended.
It was a perfect, random evening. It certainly put a star in my pot!
