ᴅᴀᴍɪᴇɴ.

It wasn't my intention to suddenly ask her out, I have no idea what's gotten into me these past few days after bumping into Ella. I know that she's no good because she's on the trail of finding me, but I'm sure she won't get any hints or clues out of me as long as I keep myself closed about the real me, that is.

I'll keep pushing and playing with this weird rope between us, until it's time I reveal.

Yeah, that's my plan. Now all I have to make sure from happening, is to not fall for anything.

But instead, make a fool out of her, because it seems pretty easy by the looks of how easily she got into getting my phone number in her contacts when I asked for it that other following night, and how easily she said yes for going on a date with someone like me.

She's an easy target. I'm capable of making a fool of.

As I grip the steering wheel with my left hand and place my right hand down, the traffic light turns yellow making me come to a full stop.

I stop and tap my fingers along the steering wheel and turn my head to the side, as I spotted Ella's eyes on me for a quick second, I brush it off as I see her on her phone, looks as if she's texting someone? Maybe her friends? it doesn't matter.

I fake a cough and put my hand on my mouth, as she turns her focus away from her phone and now on to me. Her bright hazel eyes shine through the city lights as they're on me, I suddenly feel something sharp in my chest while making eye contact with her like this. She travels her eyes up and down my face as if she's trying to scan me whole, I swallow nothing down my throat as she stares at me with such lingering eyes. "Ahem. Are you comfortable, pretty girl?" I say as she snaps out of her focus from me, she nods her head and swallows, I see a hue of pinkish-reds cast upon her small face, is she seriously blushing?

It's probably not what she expected me to bring her, but here we are anyway.

A drive-in movie theatre.

To be completely honest, this is my very first Time being somewhere like this, and that too, with a girl.

Usually I'd be picking up my play things, and then drop them off at my playground, which is nowhere near this area at all.

I ordered some popcorn and half caramelized popcorn as well, just for the use of her taste buds, I knew she wanted both because of her facial expression. It was written on it.

She raises her chocolate fudge milkshake and puts the straw to her lips, opening her mouth and taking a quick sip of her shake.

Jeez.. what's with me?

I look away from her and turn my head back to the screen, it's a wide huge screen like normal theatres would have but this one is projected, and you get to stay in your car the entire time, that's the purpose of the name after all. "It's my first time.." she suddenly says as I turn my head back to her. "being here with anyone." She finishes off her sentence and turns her head to me and smiles. "Ah, is that so pretty girl Well, we're on the same boat, that means." Her expression changes into a bigger smile than before as she moves her hand close to the caramelized popcorn, sticking her little hand in. "Really?" She says as she takes a handful out, I simply nod my head at her weird expressions she's suddenly got a hold on.

The temperature in my car right now is at a low set of warmth and coldness, somewhere in between i'd say, but for some damn reason having this girl in my car with me right now at a drive-in, is making the temperature increase.

And this was not one of the things planned.
