Angel With Dark Honey Eyes- Danny Wagner

3.

I stared at him with eyes filled with tears. Did he really just ask me out? Do I hug or kiss him? Both maybe? I'd never felt so happy in my life.

"WOOOOO"

I hear Sam yell. Danny was smiling so wide he kinda looked like Jake when he does something wrong.

"Someone would have to be crazy to say no to you, Danny Wagner."

I wrapped my arms around him, slightly crying. I never thought I would be so happy for a guy to ask me out. We hugged a little too long because when I finally let go of his warm body josh said,

"Get a room you two, I'm too hungover to deal with relationships right now"

"Then why are you drinking straight tequila?"

I ask him. Sam and Jake start laughing and excuse themselves from the table before Josh started slapping them. In the next hour we got our lunch, ate, and then josh dropped me off at my house. I ran inside and jumped on my bed in excitement

"There is no way in the world he asked me out!"

I squealed into my pillow. It was just me at home because mom was at work and dad was out of the picture. I took a few minutes to process, then I look at my phone it says,

Text from: Danny 🥁

I open it with excitement and it says,

"Can I pick you up tonight? Maybe around 8:00??"

I reply back with

"Do you have to ask??"

He took a bit before responding, but finally replied with

"See you then 😉"

I smiled at the text and walked into the living room to listen to some music. I walked over and grabbed my copy of "From the Fires" it had just gotten released and the boys wanted to make sure I got a copy of it on vinyl. I put it on the record player and sang along to the first song. Then it hit me, the boys didn't know I could sing, or play guitar. I laughed, thinking about what their faces would look like if I told them. After I had listened to the entire track, I carefuly placed the vinyl back in its slip and put it on the shelf. I looked at my phone and realized that it was already 5:30.

"I should shower"

I said as I ran to my bathroom. After washing my hair and styling it and doing my makeup it was already 7:00. I had an hour to spare before Danny picked me up. I sat on my bed for a bit and then chose an outfit at 7:45. I went down to the kitchen and sat down, wanting for a text that says,

"On my way"

About five minutes later I get a call from Danny

"Hello?"

"Hey, Look outside your door"

I walked cautiously to the door and opened it. He was standing there, in a old band t-shirt and ripped jeans that fit him perfectly. He was holding a bouquet of flowers that he extended out to me when I smiled at his figure in my doorframe

"Danny you didn't have to get me anything"

"I know, I just wanted to"

Ugh he was adorable

"Well, thank you"

"So.....I got us tickets for that movie you were talking about last week, I was planning on that?"

"Perfect idea"

We walked out to his car, and like the sweetheart he is, he opened the door for me and ushered me in. When he started the car, Don McLean's voice filled the air surrounding us. It was a short car ride, the movie theater only being ten minutes away from my place, so we only got through two songs. We walked into the theater and bought some popcorn and sodas.
As the movie started to play, his hand found mine, and we locked fingers. I felt electricity coursing through my blood as he looked over at me. This was the moment. Our faces grew closer, and as his soft lips finally touched mine, I knew that he was who I was made for.
