“No, she’s gone to the market and the a friends house to pickup food for the week” she replied, turning to stand in front of him. In this light her shirt was almost completely see-through, but she was once again clueless.

(I’m sorry for the wait. I had to do some chores.)

Cole bit his lip and gasped, looking away and nodding slowly. “Is it’s just us?” He grew a little nervous. He hadn’t ever been alone with someone like her. “If you’d like I can make dinner.”

"Just us," she replied, the lights dancing around in her eyes as she looked out the window. When he mentioned dinner she perked up, her stomach growling at even the thought of it. "That'd be awesome" she replied, smiling softly as she turned to face him once more.

(Ooof I went out with a friend to relieve stress. There’s nothing like throwing axes to make one feel good.)

“What would you like?” He asked softly, hugging himself. “I can make a lot of things.” He felt his heart skip a beat as she faced him. Once again, the thought of how absolutely gorgeous she was passed his mind. She had a beautiful body and had been nothing but kind to him.

“This is going to sound weird but has anyone ever told you that you’re quite beautiful?”

(Oh yeah, I like playing darts to relieve stress. I suck at it, but it’s fun to throw sharp objects at a wall)

“Maybe some sort of pasta, I could really go for some pasta” she hummed, her face heating up upon hearing his second statement.

“Wha-… no, that’s very not true” she laughed nervously, her eyes wandering his face to try and conceal her emotions. “You’re the only attractive person here” she replied, her face close to firetruck red once again

(IKR!!)

He nodded softly, smiling at her large blush. “Mhmm. You and I both know that’s not true. You are gorgeous.” He grinned, trying his best not to be awkward while he flirted. She was pretty and for once he actually liked having someone around.

“I’ve been too shy to talk to you but I’ve found you pretty for awhile.” He leaned against the counter and eyed her, wondering how she’d react.

She struggled not to smile, but the expression pricked her peach coloured lips anyways. She would reject the compliment once again, but she didn't really have the composure to. "Really?" she asked, referring to his claims of her gorgeousness.

Her own smile brought one to his lips. He laughed nervously and shook his head. “Yes really. You might not see it but I can see it all. Everything about you is beautiful and gorgeous.” He blushed lightly, ducking his head shyly.

It took him a moment before he could lift his head to gaze at her once more. “You must think I’m weird. The first encounter we really have together was me accidentally walking in on you. And now I’m here trying to get you to believe that you’re beautiful.”

She was pleasantly caught off guard and she didn't know what to do about it. "T-Thank you" she muttered, her face glowing all sorts of reds and pinks. Her heart felt like it was going a million miles per hour.

She looked at him when he returned his gaze to her, her eyes searching for any mockery in his words. To her surprise, there wasn't any. "It's fine. Flattering, actually. I couldn't believe that ever anyways, due to the fact that it isn't true." she laughed, leaning on the counter behind her.

He murmured a soft ‘you’re welcome’ and beamed at her. Until she stated that she wasn’t what he said she was. “None sense. Take it from someone who’d rather be alone all his life, I find you enchanting.” He winked, hesitantly reaching up to brush some of her hair out of her face.

“Your hair is very pretty. I like the color red. It suits you.” He smiled at her. “And of course it’s true. I wouldn’t lie to you. I’m an honest man.”

She looked down, looking up at him again but only with her eyes, her head still facing down. She bit her lip hard when he winked. She almost screamed when his fingers grazed over her cheek as he tucked the stray piece of hair behind her ear.

"C-Cole…" she muttered, her eyes fluttering open and closed as she gripped onto the counter, resisting the urge to kiss him. "You are a good man" she replied, her face feeling like a puddle of lava.

He shivered at his name on her tongue. He liked it there. “Thank you Erica, you are a good woman.” The heat in her face was matched by his own blush. Cole tried desperately to keep himself under control but her sweet scent was heavy and strong from her shower.

He felt almost proud of himself to be standing here courting such a beautiful woman when before he would have hidden from her gaze. “I guess I should start dinner… would you like to help?”

"I'd love to" she replied, brushing a hand through her hair again as she moved closer to him for a split second before moving to the counter, basically panting from the tension between them. She wanted to kiss him so bad.

(Sorry, I had work ^^’ I’m off tomorrow tho)

Cole couldn’t handle this much tension. He was breaking down slowly with each thing she did. He nearly grabbed her arm and pulled her closer when she drifted away, but instead he calmly opened a few cupboards. “Do you have pasta? And a pot I could use?”

"Pasta is over here…" she moved over to a lower cabinet, bending over to look for it. She got it, back of the stupid cupboard, and walked back over to him, placing it on the counter before getting in front of him and opening the cabinet for the pot, her back against his front.

He watched her move with a soft awe. He knew she was a dancer, but the way she moved was more graceful than any dancer he had ever seen.

As her back grew close to his front he closed the gap between them and gently tapped her arm. “Turn around for a moment, would you?”

She stood up and turned around, not really knowing what he was up to. She leaned against the counter, looking into his eyes curiously.

Cole had something a little dark in his eyes. It wasn’t malicious nor was it angry. It was want. He couldn’t stand having her so close to him. So he leaned in, gently pulling her close until their lips nearly met. “Is this alright?” He asked her softly, gently. “I want to kiss you.”

Her eyes widened before fluttering, her eyes now only half-open as she bit her lip. Her eyes searched his face, her lips parting, "Yes" she replied, "Please do" she muttered, smiling softly as he pulled her closer
