Love at Sunset
Well the date was set and now I stand out in the middle of the park underneath the street light waiting for her. Of course I was earlier, though scared that I will end up screwing something up. I sit down on the park bench and began to look through my phone second guessing myself, whether or not to run and just cancel the whole thing.
I sat there for a few, flipping through my phone at the images of Sunset that she sent to me. I felt a dumb founded smile on my face form as I just began to fell calm just from looking at the pictures.
I suddenly felt the warmth of a leather jacket wrap around my shoulders with red and golden hair draping over my shoulder. "Hey Twi." Sunset said, resting her chin on my shoulder. I felt my face light up as I turned to see her, a bashful smile now on my lips. "H-Hey Sunset." I said, trying to stand up from the bench.
"So, you got me all to yourself tonight, what all would you like to do?" She asked. "W-Well, I'm not exactly to sure. I was kind of hoping that you may have had something planned." I admitted. I saw a grin from ear to ear come forth as she nodded. "Well, I have a few things planned, though we may be up for the good portion of the night." She said.
I blushed deeply, my mind automatically going to the gutter. "Now calm down, it's nothing like that." She said, though stepped even closer to me, leaning down into my ear. "Unless you want that." She said in a teasing whisper. I felt chills run down through my spine, my body begging, but I denied her that request.
She smirked and nodded softly. "Well, darn. There goes my fun." She teased. I smiled and began to walk ahead of her. "So, you haven't told me exactly what you have planned yet." I said, turning to face her, waiting for her to catch up.
She finally caught up to me and we began to walk down the path, side by side. It felt like my heart was in my throat as we walked. "Well?" I asked. She gave a defeated sigh and smiled. "Well, I honestly was thinking maybe a midnight stroll and end it off at my place. I was planning on feeding you and maybe watch a movie. Pizza sound alright? And don't worry, it'll be home made pizza. Everything from scratch" She said with a smile.
I nodded softly and smirked. "So, it shouldn't end with us piled up on the bed, should it?" I teased. "Not unless you want it to." She replied without skipping a beat. I let out a small chuckle and shrugged. "Maybe. It depends on if you can surprise me with this date." I teased.
At this time, she jumped in front of me and smirked. "Surprise you? Hmm, what can I do to surprise you?" She said, placing her hand on my cheek, my face growing red once more as her face. her lips inched closer to my own before she paused and pulled back away, a devious grin on her face. "Well, we're just going to have to wait and see." She said, turning away from me.
I groaned out softly and looked at her. "That is NOT fair!" I pouted. I heard her laugh as she was walking ahead of me. I looked up at her, caught up with her, and looked up at her. "So, aside from teasing me the whole way through, what else do you have planned?" I said, afraid of the next answer. It has been about 30 minutes since she shown up, though she has been making more and more frustrated with each passing second.
She shrugged softly and placed her hands behind her head as we walked. "Well, I was figuring that we could head out here soon. I'm getting kind of hungry and I'd figure that you're getting there as well." She said, my stomach growling, agreeing to her statement. She let out a small chuckle as she turned to me. "C'mon, let's get to my place so I can get you fed." She said, grabbing my hand, leading me to her home.
As we arrived, it was a small one bedroom apartment that was no bigger than an average class room. She walked in as I followed. "Just make yourself at home. I don't have cable, but I do have my laptop hooked up to my tv. You can watch whatever you'd like." She said turning back to me. I nodded and walked over to the couch and sat down, making myself comfortable.
A few minutes passed as I made myself comfortable and looked back into the kitchen to see Sunset, scrambling around the kitchen, trying her best to prepare the food. "Sunset, if you just want to order one, that's perfectly fine as well." I stated. She looked over at me and shrugged. "Well, it's up to you. I guess that would be easier." She said, pulling out her phone and walking further back into the apartment.
She came back out with a tank top on and a pair of shorts that left nothing much to the imagination. "If you'd like, I have some spare clothes in the back if you'd like to get comfy." She said, leaning over the couch, leaving a direct shot for me to look down her shirt. I blushed deeply and looked back up at her. "You are doing this on purpose." I teased. She stuck her tongue out at me jokingly. "Well, not really. Besides, I'm not the one looking down other people's shirts." She stated.
I looked up at her and groaned, slightly annoyed at her. "Ok, fine. I guess I'll take a look at what you have that I can wear." I said, standing up. As I walked into her room, it was actually kept up. There wasn't any mess anywhere. I walked into her closet and began to look around to see a variety of tank tops. pants, shorts, and other articles of clothing. Finally I pulled out a purple tank top and a pair of black sweat pants and walked back into the living room to find her with her back turned towards me.
I grinned softly, snuck up behind her, wrapped my arms around her, and rested my head on her back, instantly feeling at home. I felt her hands be placed on top of mine. "Already comfy?" She asked. I nodded softly and snuggled up to her. I looked up at her to see that she was nervous about something. "Sunny? Everything alright?" I asked. She nodded softly, but still remained silent. "H-Hey Twi?" She called out as she turned to face me. "Hmmm?" I hummed out, looking up at her.
She sighed heavily, a deep blush on her face. "I honestly was scared that you were going to say no to the date. Especially after it seemed like you were trying to avoid me there for a while." She admitted. I felt my stomach begin to knot up. "I was scared that even though we've been friends for so long, that if I was to screw something up, that you'd hate me forever. I'm still scared of that." She admitted.
"Sunny?" "Yes?" Sunset replied. I smiled softly and wrapped my arms around her shoulders to pull her close to me, finally pressing my lips against hers. She was shocked at first, but quickly fell into the kiss, wrapping her arms around my hips to pull me closer to her. I finally broke away and looked up at her. "Let me make something clear. There is nothing you can do to make me mad at you. I was avoiding you, yes, but it was for the same reason. I was scared of screwing up our friendship." I admitted, looking up at her.
She nodded softly and held me close as I rested my head on her chest, her heart soothing every worry of my soul. "C'mon, let's go sit down," Sunset said, pulling away, though had my hand grasped in hers as we walked over to the couch and sat back down. She sat down first sprawled out on half of the couch with one leg hanging over the side.
I smiled and laid down in front of her, my back against her chest as she wrapped her arms around me and held me close. "S-So, would you like to stay here tonight?" She shyly asked. I tilted my head back and smirked. "Well that depends." I said with a sly smirk. "On what?" "On how well you behave." I stated, snuggling closer to her.
About an thirty minutes passed when we finally heard a knock on the door. I looked up to see Sunset asleep and smiled softly. I leaned up to kiss the top of her head, getting a response out of her. "Sunny, the pizza is here." I said, getting off of her and helping her up. She yawned softly and walked over to her purse and grabbed the money and walked over to the door. "Hey, sorry if you've been waiting long. I kind of fell asleep." She said, trying to wipe the sleep from her eyes.
I sprawled out on the couch almost in the same position she was in and smiled softly, snuggling down into the spot. She walked over to the counter and placed the pizza down and then walked over to the couch and laid down on top of me and smirked, playfully pinning me down.
"Hey beautiful." She said, looking down at me, causing me to blush. "H-Hey." I said, smiling up at her. "You ready to eat?" She asked, before helping me up, my stomach growling once more. "C'mon Twi." She chuckled out, leading me over to the pizza.
As we finished our dinner, we walked back over to the couch with Sunset already sprawled out on the couch. I smirked softly and pounced on top of her, then began to snuggle close to her, resting my head on her chest.
I felt her hand reach up as her fingers began to entangle themselves in my hair. I smiled and looked up at her. She paused and looked down at me, raising a brow. "Everything alright?" She asked. "Yeah, I've just haven't felt this happy in so long. It's kind of new to me." I said, resting my head back on her chest.
I felt her wrap her arms around me and pulled me closer to her. "Twi, as long as I'm with you. I will make sure that you will be happy from here on out." She said, kissing the top of my head. I giggled softly and nodded. "Thank you so much." I said, cuddling up to her.
