He’d finally taken the plunge and asked her out. Probably should have done it sooner, but better late than never, right ? Now though, he was faced with the problem of what to wear. He got Phi to help him, which maybe wasn’t the best idea since he ended up in a yellow plaid shirt and a patterned baseball cap. After giving detailed instructions to the babysitter for the third time since they’d arrived, he finally headed out the door to the meeting place. Only a few minutes later did she appear.
“ No problem ! ” Nemo responded. “ I’m ready when you are ! ”
ellie smiled at him as soon as she saw him — how could someone make a plaid shirt and a baseball bat look so cute ? she hoped that he thought she looked nice too, even if it was hard to really look at her little black dress under the lightweight plaid coat she had on. “i’m ready.” she replied, feeling a little nervous. she’d been waiting for this date for what felt like a really long time, and she really didn’t want to mess it up. nemo was the first person she had seriously crushed on since she’d broken up with sam, and the young woman didn’t take that lightly. “should we get going?”
“ yes let’s ! ” his heart was a little fluttery, like a schoolboy with his first crush, but he tried to play it off like he knew what he was about even though it had been literal years since he’d been on a real date. not that anyone really knew that, its not something one generally broadcasts. “ you look quite nice, by the way ! ”
