I show up at Eileenalisa's 15 minutes early, on purpose. I know that's a little mean, but I want to show her I'm serious. Also, I want her off her guard a little bit. Something about making her feel flustered is just so adorable. One of the other people in her building let's me in and as I'm walking up the stairs, I'm giddy.
::Knock, knock::
I hear something slam on the ground and then I hear Eileenalisa exclaim "Already?!". She is clearly not expecting me on time, let alone early. I chuck at this and then hear here stomping towards the door. She's at the door and probably staring daggers at me. "You're early" she grumbles through the door. "I'm happy to wait while you finish getting ready." I smile as best I can into the peephole.
A small defeated "nooo" is all that answers back to me. She clearly doesn't want me to sea until she's done, so the effect can be full. "Okay, well I can go wait in my car I guess?" I say not sure what to do with that response. "No!" clearly this is an a front to her as well. "Why are you early?! I'm not ready, what should I do?" she seems very vexed.
"How about you open the door and I wait inside, but I keep my eyes closed as to not ruin your prep time?" I ask, with sort of a smug tone. The door clicks. "Close your eyes!" She demands. I obey and the door opens. Eileenalisa grabs my hand and pulls me in. I trip as she is walking me towards her couch but catch myself. It's definitely sort of awkward being led around a foreign space. "Sorry!" She exclaims.
We finally make it to the couch and I'm unscathed, mostly. I chuck as I sit down. "Take your time. There is no rush! Our reservation isn't for an hour." I smile, while continuing to obey Eileenalisa. "Reservation?! Are you taking me somewhere fancy?!" I kept the details of our date hidden from Eileenalisa during the week. She did try to convince me with a few risquΓ© photos, but no amount of cleavage, even cleavage as nice as hers could convince me. I wanted tonight to be special. And I wanted her to not fully know what to expect.
