You walk into the roller rink and search for Jake. Almost instantly, you spot his longer black locks and notice he’s wearing a white graphic tee with ripped black jeans and Converse. He looks so devastatingly gorgeous.
When you approach Jake, he gives you a shy little wave. “Hey Jake. You look really handsome today.”
He gives you a wide smile in return. “Thanks and you look so pretty. I'm really glad we got set up.”
You give a soft smile at him and gently intertwine your hand in his. “Thanks. And honestly I wasn't sure how I felt about getting set up on a date with a guy that’s in a band…but you aren't what I was expecting.”
Jake gives a confused expression and crosses his arms. “Is that a bad thing I'm not what you expected? I hope I'm not disappointing you y/n.”
You shake your head back and forth at him. “No, of course not. I mean, you’re not a jerk so I'm glad.”
Jake gives a shy smile at you and slowly guides you to the middle of the rink after you two put your skates on. “I'd like to think I'm a nice guy. I’m trying to get rid of the stereotype of band guys being jerks.”
You beam at his words and start slowly trying to skate around. Neither of you have ever done this before and are nervous about it. Jake makes sure to keep a steady grip on your hand so you won't lose him.
After you start getting the hang of it, Jake starts moving around faster with you on the rink. You smile while looking over at him and think that you could fall for him. It isn't hard with his kind personality, and a bonus that he is so good looking.
Jake suddenly speaks, taking you out of your thoughts. “Do you want to share a slushy and get some lunch?”
“Sounds good. I could eat.”
Carefully he gets you both off the rink, and you both change back into regular shoes. The line isn't that long so you stand beside him, absentmindedly holding onto his arm.
He gives a little grin and gives you a surprise cheek kiss. You glance at him and get on tiptoes to playfully ruffle his soft hair.
“Hey, don't do that. I'm not a kid.”
You give a tiny smirk and say, “But it's fun to do that to you. That was such a cute reaction.”
Jake frowns at you. “I don't want you finding me cute.” He runs a hand through his hair in a sexy way. “I want you to think I'm handsome.”
You pat his arm lightly. “You are handsome too. But I just meant you did one little cute action.”
He gives a tiny grin of satisfaction and then orders the slushy and chicken tender baskets. While you two wait, he puts an arm around your shoulders.
The food gets done quicker than expected, and Jake lets you pick the table to sit at. You pick a table that's more secluded and sit down first. Jake sits down beside you and rests a hand on your knee. His touch sends electricity through your whole system.
Jake takes a sip of the slushy first before offering it to you. “All yours beautiful. It's good too.”
“Can't wait to try it. I'm sure it tastes good,” you tell him while giving him an intense gaze.
You quickly lean over to kiss him on his lips. He immediately responds by kissing you back and wraps his arms around your neck. Your hands start running through his hair as you two continue to keep your lips connected.
When the kiss ends, Jake gives a knowing look to you. “That sure was a smooth move. Someone must want a second date.”
You give him a shrug. “I don't know if I do or not. This one isn't over yet.” You teasingly add, “Maybe I'll go out with someone else after this. My friend knows this other guy named Jay.”
Jake squints at you unamused and frowns. “I hope you don't go out with someone else. I think we should go out again. I can make it something memorable.”
“Wow I guess I made quite an impression on you and I was just teasing. And how would you make it memorable?”
Jake kisses your forehead, cheek, and lips briefly. “I could just keep giving you some of these. You seem to enjoy them.”
Your face heats up at his words. “That's confident of you to say and maybe I do.”
Jake closes the gap between you two again and cups your face in his hands while he kisses you. Your arms wrap around his neck as your lips respond to his.
After you part from each other, he asks, “Do you think there's a good chance at a second date after this?”
“Absolutely but I'm choosing what we do next.”
Jake beams at you and wraps an arm around your shoulders. “I'm down for anything with you. As long as I get to see you again.”
At that moment, you know there will be more dates and time spent with this man and are glad you chose to go on this date. Sometimes taking a chance at set up dates could be worth it.
