Dinner Date // Rave

Dave sat in the cab, fixing his tie again so that it rested comfortably against his chest. Before he'd left, he decided to at least try to look nice for his date. A simple blue button down shirt and a tie with a pair of jeans. He'd even tried styling his hair a bit, though it didn't work out like he wanted and he ended up having to wash it out again to get it back to some-what decent. He looked down at the time, and he was already 5 minutes late because the driver had gotten turned around at a closed road. He eventually got to the apartment he knew belonged to River, and actually had to yell at the driver to stop before he got to far down the road.

Dave paid the driver (a lot more than he deserved for circling the same road three damn times) and ran back up the street and stood outside. He was a bit nervous, because despite being so comfortable around River, Dave still felt a little worried he would find some way to mess it up. After he finally got his heart rate down past the point of possible heart attacks, he knocked on the door and waited for River to answer.

AIM Logs // Rave

First Date // Rave

Dave stuffed the few books back into his bag and ran through the campus to get to the concert hall. His class had gone long, and he knew he was late but damn it he didn't want to be this late! He was heaving a little when he finally got to the front door, throwing himself through into the lobby. He straightened himself out and pushed towards the concert room proper, despite a few odd looks from the people at the front desk. He followed the music until he got to one of the nicer halls and ducked inside, trying not to interrupt. River was in the middle of playing a song Dave quickly picked out  as "Carry on My Wayward Son." Dave couldn't help but smile, the song was an old favorite of his dad's. 

Dave was completely blown back that River had asked him out. It was the first time Dave had a real romantic interest in years (his sordid sexual encounters past and present did not count) and Dave wasn't sure how to feel. He thought about Kurt and his friends and high school and- Dave was broken out of his thoughts when the current song end, and he clapped as loud as he could, cheering for the boy on stage.

Coffee Break // Rave

Dave stuffed the carton of cigarettes and nicotine patches in his pocket, the last package he would allow himself to buy, at least as long as he was living with Shane. He knew it was going to be tough, and he really wasn't looking forward to the ordeal. But he had to do it, just so that things would be a little bit better for Shane and her baby. After he finished paying for the items, he went back out onto the bustling streets and began to make his way to the Starbucks nearby.

He had started talking to one of the workers there, River, and he really seemed like a nice guy. Plus, with the small offer of a free cup of coffee that was desperately needed, how was a guy supposed to resist?  A few blocks later he found his way into the coffee shop, walking slowly up to the front counter and looking around for River.
