A Little Story (Chapter 6)

I waited at the cafe with a light heart, people are usually really nervous on their first date but I don't know why I'm not, probably because I don't really fancy Aaron really. I don't know why I'm agreeing to do this but somehow, I'm here, about to have the first date of my whole life. 

Aaron came in with a huge smile, showing off his white teeth, ugh, will that boy stop showing off his charisma? His face lit up when he saw me and walked to towards my direction, he was wearing tight jeans with a plain dark blue top, I can tell the colours because he's one of my stimulants, apart from video games, which makes him kind of special.

'Hey, you're early, you look good today.' Smiling at me

I looked down, just my regular dungarees and striped shirt which I have no clue what colour it is. I bet he was saying that to make me fall for him, not going down that route, such a flower boy line.

We ordered our coffees and sat down on a little table next to the big glass windows of the cafe, it had a view of the busy road and people passing by, I like it, it reminds me how time flies. 

'So, tell me about you.'

'Me? There's not much to know about me.'

'Come one. The only thing I know about you is that you're called Emma and that you play video games really well.'

'That's my life exactly.'

I was short in my answers because, really, there is really nothing interesting in me, I have absolutely no talent whatsoever. I don't want to him about me being colourblind because he knows the video gaming side of me, and that girl is not known to be colourblind, it's best to keep my worlds separate. 

'Ok, then let me start. My name is Aaron, I'm 17 years old, currently in high school, I'm into video gaming, rugby, lacrosse, any sport you name it, I was born and raised in Oxford and.. well, I like a girl called Emma who has gorgeous brown hair with the most beautiful blue eyes that make me near to the point of fainting, she is also very mysterious and I would like to get to know her more.'

Is he hitting on me? Flirting is not found in my dictionary, I don't find it flattering at all. Yes, I do have brown hair and blue eyes, there is no need to flatter me with extravagant adjectives. He's the same age as me and lives in the same area as me, I guess that could be fate? 

'If you want to know me more, you need to earn my trust, I don't fall easily.'

Yes. Go Emma, pretty boys need to know that some girls are hard to get.

'You know, I think that this attitude you have is really cute.' and he shot me his cheeky smile.

Boy, don't do this to me.

'Well, I'm glad you find it attractive, but that doesn't mean you're earning my trust.'

'Oh, I will, eventually. I'll prove to you that I'm the best boyfriend you will ever have.'

'Oh really, I guess you're really experienced then. How many girls before me?'

'Smooth. Well, should I be honest with you? None.'

None? Does that mean that he has so much pride that he thinks he's too cool for anyone.

'I'm surprised, I thought you were the playboy type.'

'Well, my girlfriend, I might not be the type of guy who dates everyone but I do like to party.'

Did he just call me his girlfriend? Partying? Things I have never experienced and never will.

'Excuse me, when did I ever agree to be your girlfriend?'

'Since the moment you decided to come to this date.'

'I came here because it was a forfeit and that this was on the gamers news, so I was pressured to come'

'Still, you coming here means that you have feelings for me.'

I gulped, he really has his ways of making everything go his way.

'If I did have feelings for you, I would still come here anyways, who wouldn't want a free cup of coffee?'

'That is an invalid argument'

'On that account, I feel like this conversation is not really going anywhere and therefore I'm going to make my leave. Goodbye Aaron, thank you for the coffee.' I smiled at him mischievously.

I could see him portray a sign of disbelief. Aaron, girls have a way of winning an argument no matter the circumstances because they just rock like that.

I exited the cafe, I could sense him following him. Maybe I was concentrating on his presence that I couldn't see the car rushing towards me on the road. Next thing I knew, I was shocked to see bright lights shining in my direction..
