Devon's blush only deepened as he stuttered a compliment. It was cute how he could hardly find words when he spoke to her, but it would always manage to make her cheeks burn.
"I'm good. Um… Pretty excited for tonight, actually," she admitted softly.
"That's definitely a good start." He slipped his hands into his pockets, biting the inside of his cheek. "You- You wore the necklace."
"Hm? Oh, yeah… I thought you'd like it," Devon said with a shrug, lifting a hand to finger the chains.
(HE MORE THAN LIKED IT, DEVON.)
"It suits you," he murmured quietly. "I'm glad you liked it." Clearing his throat, he gestured towards the restaurant. "Shall we?"
(Lol. XD)
Devon gave him a small smile, nodding slightly. She was glad he seemed to like it on her. "Yes, let's. I'm starving," she chuckled gently.
They headed into the restaurant, sitting down in their designated booth. Sebastian anxiously tugged at his freshly ironed collar, biting down on his tongue.
(Poor Sebastian… He's so adorably awkward.)
"So…" Devon started as she sat down and glanced at the menu. She brought her eyes up to meet his, giving him an encouraging smile. "I guess we don't really know that much about each other, do we?"
(Yes talk to each other about yourselves!!! Get to know each other more!)
(lol
they already know some stuff about eachother, they've been friends for a few months, so that's something)
"I mean.. yeah," Sebastian admitted, suddenly sheepish. "Do you want to… I dunno, talk? Play twenty questions?"
(he's so bad at this lmao)
(Poor baby. Lol.)
Devon chuckled lightly. “Sure, that sounds good. Do you want to go first or should I?”
(XD)
"Uhh.. you ask first. Please. I'm really bad at this kind of stuff, as you can probably tell." He tapped his fingers against the surface of the table, inhaling deeply.
Devon clicked her tongue as she thought of something to ask. “Well… Which fictional place would you most like to go to?”
(I literally just looked up a list of questions. Lol. If you want it, I can send the link.)
(yes please lol, I'm about as bad at this as Sebastian)
Surprised by the question, Sebastian unknowingly stuck his tongue out a tiny bit between his lips as he thought. "Uh, I guess I'd have to choose.. Elysium, basically Ancient Greek paradise. Does that count?"

Devon smiled a little at the face he made. Gosh, he was adorable sometimes…
“That counts. I think I’d have to say Narnia. I’ve alwayd wanted to go to Narnia, for as long as I can remember,” she mused thoughtfully.
(eyy)
"Narnia…" Sebastian scrunched his brow in concentration. "Is that the one through the mirror? Or the closet?"
“It’s a wardrobe,” Devon chuckled softly. “But, yeah.”
Sebastian laughed quietly. "Sorry, I don't really know my book stuff very well. Is it my turn to ask?"
“Mmhm. So ask away,” Devon said, smiling across the table at him.
"Um…. If you didn't have to sleep, what would you do with the extra time?" Sebastian was unsure where the question had come from, but he was admittedly proud of it.
“Uh… Gosh, I don’t know… Honestly, I would probably clean,” Devon admitted. “My apartment is a mess…”
