Felicity hated how she had been waiting around all day for the time of her date with Rob. It made her feel too eager, and she knew guys hated that. It wasn’t that she really cared what guys would think usually, but when she was actually interested in someone she wanted to make a good first impression. She’d have to make sure that the words ‘I waited all day for this!’ wouldn’t leave her mouth tonight. When the time came though, Felicity was thrilled. It had been a while since she got herself dressed up for something like a date. Usually she gave makeup a miss because she was so tired. Lets hope she remembered how most of this stuff worked.
Eagerness got the better of Felicity, however, as she found herself at their date destination about 10 minutes early. In order to kill time, she decided to walk around the block. Twice. The time on her phone read 6:59, she could surely go in now, right? She was freezing, and decided that if things with Rob got serious, he’d have to accept these things about her. She was always the early one.
When she saw him, she couldn’t stop the smile spreading on her lips. At his compliment, she felt herself blush. “You too. It’s nice to see you, again, too. You look great. I’ve already said that haven’t I?” God she was forever a bumbling mess. “Sorry, I’m just nervous. And excited, of course. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been looking forward to this all day.” Well, there goes that plan of keeping that to herself. “Ignore me, I’m rambling. Hi, how are you?”
Rob couldn’t help but chuckle at how flustered the Doctor was getting, he shook his head as she apologised. “You’re fine, don’t worry” He realised he had been stood there for a few moments, so stood forward and gave her a quick hug, taking a deep breath in of her scent has he pulled away. “Good, because I’m excited too, for the date of course, and partly because I have it on good authority that this place does excellent ice cream sundaes.” He pointed over at the counter, the various colours of the different flavours looking something like a wes anderson movie.
They made their way towards the counter and Rob’s eyes widened “Damn, I didn’t know they made this many flavours of ice cream.” He turned to Felicity, with a look a shock on his face “Cotton Candy? Apple Strudel? These are insane” He smiled at Felicity, noting how the lights of the display counter were reflecting in her eyes, adding an extra sparkle. “Apprently when I was younger, like 4 or 5, all I would eat was strawberry ice cream. Like, flat out refused to eat anything else. I find that really weird because I literally hate the stuff now. Guess I ate enough for a whole life time”
