Nolanverse Scarecrow || First Date
You both met at a local flower show, he was interested in these rare mountain flowers at a booth when you bumped into him. Looking at each other for a split second, you knew this man had secrets. And you were going to learn more.
You decided to meet up at the library for what he called a “blind book date” and you didn’t know it yet, but he could pick out the perfect literature for anyone.
He had a way with words, everything he said sounded so rich and cultured. As the two of you strolled around the library and picked out books for each other you noticed his deep blue eyes. They survey the shelves as if it was an African savannah and he was a lion.
His book for you was classic poetry and you just loved that. You’ve always like prose, and enjoyed the nature of the spoken word. He knew this without even knowing much about you. It felt meant to be.
The two of you enjoyed the silence of reading, occasionally looking up at each other to stare at the eyes. If it wasn’t for the regulation of being silent in a library, you felt that a conversation about life could happen -- the king that changed a person.
It was a good afternoon. Hopefully, one of many.
