for JULIA <3 Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight For someone who'd never been a stranger to relationships, whether serious or casual or whatever, Jake was completely clueless about what he was meant to do tonight. Granted, he'd never been on a blind date before, which just added to the mystery... as in, the mystery of the whole entire situation, and not just who he was supposed to be meeting.
He'd debated on flowers for a while, but Dale had advised against it. Dale had ALSO had vetoed the bright pink shirt, because his little brother was apparently allergic to FUN. Jake still stood by the fact that it would have been a perfect identifier, and he liked to casually ignore the points that 1. his intended date had no idea that that would BE the identifier, and 2. the waiter would be bringing her to the table anyway, what with their mutual friend having set everything up.
And so it was that Jake was seated at a table for two in the restaurant, in a much more subtle and smart-casual suit and sans the pink shirt. He glanced nervously at the door and adjusted his glasses, before running a hand through his blond hair.
He was absolutely not freaking out, or at least that was what he told himself as he straightened the menu on his table and took a sip of water. Not freaking out, just reasonably anxious about getting back into the dating game.
But ready. So ready. Yep. Eek. Okay, NO. Ready. Yes.
