It didn't seem to matter how many times you opened up to someone or how many times you had someone tell you they liked you too, it never really changed the feeling. It never was less nerve racking and it was never less embarrassing. After all, Damon felt like he was back in his teen years, struggling to tell his first crush that he liked her.
Damon held Alex in his arms for a moment, releasing her slightly as she leaned back to speak to him. Damon gave her a warm smile. "Trust me, it's been a while since I've done this either, so we can just both awkwardly stumble through it together. How does that sound?" Damon asked, giving her a hopeful little smile. He felt like him and Alex were really compatible for each other...they both seemed to have similar morals and they seemed to have a good understanding of each other. He hoped that Alex would be willing to give it a go with him...
Damon turned to look at the carnival stand, not sure if anyone would even know to give them a prize. "I'm not even sure who to tell that I got it around the bottle," Damon said with a little laugh.
Alex didn't know what to say. Uh. She was feeling nervous because..yeah, so this may sound a little weird but the fact that a guy like Damon actually liked her was..flattering. She had assumed that the crush she had on him would just fade away..but turned out that he liked her as well. Also, the fact that they admitted liking each other was..weird but
strangely nice. She gave him a smile when he said that he liked her for a while as well.
"Wow. This is.." She searched for a few words that could describe what she felt but all she came up with was,
"amazing." "That actually sounds good." Alex felt relieved that he didn't have a clue about any of this either. At least, she didn't feel awkward about the whole thing anymore. Um. So, this was going to be a little embarrassing.
"Uh. You know, I've never really.." Oh gosh. She felt stupid. Really stupid.
"you know, been in a relationship before." Alex muttered. Gosh, she couldn't believe that she actually said that aloud. How embarrassing.
Alex laughed.
"Do you want to wait for the prize or do you want to check out other games?"
