stranger on a date
hey guys so im actually considering making this a book?
be honest, would u actually read it?
Ik this is annoying but I really rely off of reads/comments for inspiration. if I know people are enjoying it based off of feedback, I’ll continue.
if u want this to be a book, dm/comment some plots I could use. should it be a classic lovestory or should it have some twists?
obviously I need to write out an exact plot for this so I’m well prepared for writing so she won’t come out until like, the end of August if I’m quick.
COMMENTTTTTTT PLZZZZ.
i love them. :)
QOTD- tv show that you’ve watched over twice all the way through?
AOTD- The Office, the fosters, drag race.

“Are you nervous? You seem nervous.” Kirstie asked with a hint of sarcasm and a cocked eyebrow.
Mitch sighed, fixing his hair in the mirror, seeming to not get a piece to stay in the same place.
“Of course i am! I have no idea how I was so confident when I ran into him, I channeled my inner Kirstie. What if I’m nervous and he doesn’t like it?”
Kirstie scoffed, rolling her eyes at him. “No way! If he only likes you for your confidence, then leave the date and don’t call him. But he doesn’t seem like that! He seems so sweet and cute!”
Mitch sighed harshly before groaning and giving up on trying to get his hair perfect.
“You’re right. You’re right? Yeah, you’re right.”
“Yep, I’m right!” Kirstie exclaimed. Mitch turned away from the mirror and faced her.
“You got this. Just be yourself. If you’re feeling confident, great. If you’re nervous, even better. That means there’s something about him! And if it goes badly, text me a breakfast food and I’ll call you and say your cat died so you’ll be able to leave.”
Mitch giggled before leaning forward and kissing her forehead.
“Thank you. Okay, I’m going to head out.”
Kirstie gave him a thumbs up and a smile. He took a deep breath before opening the door.

He fidgeted with his hands, looking down at his lap as his mind raced.
“Don’t overthink, don’t overthink.” He whispered to himself.
Although soon his train of thought was cut short.
“Hey, you!” He heard. He looked up and saw Scott.
God, he looked great.
Too great.
Perfectly great.
And Mitch couldn’t even get his hair right.
“Hey,” mitch said as he released a deep breath. He didn’t know if he should shake his hand or hug.
Maybe both? The handshake and then hug thing?
Oh god, think quickly. He’s coming.
Mitch, out of pure instinct, reached his hand out.
Although he didn’t notice that Scott had his arms out for a hug.
Mitch sighed, letting his hand fall down.
“Sorry... im incredibly nervous. I haven’t been on a date in months. Wow, that was embarrassing. I’m better at this when I’m either drunk or hungover.”
Mitch laughed awkwardly.
Although, Scott found it sweet.
“Well, it’s only been a minute and I think you’re doing great.”
Mitch laughed, a grin on his face. There was a pause where nobody said anything, although it wasn’t awkward.
“Hey,” mitch said, looking around the club.
“Wanna go for a walk?” He asked, scratching the back of his head. Scott smiled and nodded.
They walked out, and mitch wondered if he should hold his hand or not. This is a date, right?
No, it’s too soon. Is it?
It was late. The moon was already up, although it was only 7:46.
They talked mainly about family. How many siblings they had, their relationships with their parents.
They awkwardly tip toe’d around past relationships, mainly making jokes about it. Time had passed quickly, but it was obvious both of them were enjoying their time together.
“Hey um, wanna...”
Scott wanted to head back to his place. No! Not for... sexy time. God, he sounds so stupid...
But it was because it was getting freezing out.
Although, what if mitch got the wrong idea and thought Scott was just a skeeze?
That’s when he got an idea.
“Get coffee? Yeah, coffee. That’s what I was going to say.”
Mitch paused for a second with his eyebrows narrowed.
“You want coffee,” Scott nodded as Mitch glanced at his watch, “at 12:22 in the morning.” Mitch stated. Scott was about to nod, but instead sighed.
“Ugh-fine, okay. We should head back to my place. I mean not ‘should’ but can. And I’m not being skeezy, I swear! I have... um... to feed my dog?”
Mitch tried straight face, but couldn’t help it and started laughing. Scott rolled his eyes, but couldn’t help by grin at his laugh and the way it sounded.
Mitch rested his hand on Scott’s bicep naturally, his laugh stopping.
“Scott, relax. You’re doing great.” Mitch said in a reassuring voice.
Scott then realized how close they were together.
“U-um... we should probably... probably g-get—?”
“Thought you didn’t scare easy?” Mitch asked softly, a small smirk on his faces as he decided to move his arm gently up and down on his arm.
Scott practically choked in embarrassment, but he tried his best.
“U-uh, I’m n-not—“ he stuttered, having trouble finding a note to follow. His face was heating up, and although it was cold outside, it all of a sudden seemed hot. Overbearingly hot.
“Guess I’ll have to scare you more often, so y’know...”
Mitch said, his smirk to very relevant to his features. Scott made the conscious decision to stop talking, removing himself from anymore stuttering or incorrect sentences.
Mitch took a step closer to Scott which didn’t make the situation easier to deal with for Scott.
“You get used to it.” Mitch said softly.
Mitch then took a step back, clearing his throat and smiling.
“So, where’s your flat then?” He asked as if he didn’t just mess up every thought Scott has ever had about anything. Does that make sense? Eh, I don’t know. That’s how it feels, though.
Scott pointed down the street before saying anything.
“There.”
Is all he said. Mitch chuckled, beginning to walk down the sidewalk, Scott pausing for a moment before walking behind him.

“No, no, i totally disagree. Callie messed everything up! Brandon was just gross but they caused every plot twist. You know why? Cause they’re gross!” Scott said passionately. Mitch laughed, shaking his head before putting his hands up in surrender.
“Alright! God, sorry for having an original thought for once.” He laughed. Scott laughed to, and soon everything was quiet except for the television playing.
Mitch soon got a text, causing a loud ‘DING’ to go off and make him flinch.
“Everything going okay?” Read the text on the screen from Kirstie.
Mitch looked over at Scott who was completely giving full focus towards the television. Mitch smiled and looked back at his phone. “Everything perfect. Quite literally perfect.”
He replied.
He turned his phone off and looked back at the television. “Everything okay?” Scott asked, just processing that Mitch got a text.
Mitch nodded with a smile, glancing at Scott briefly.
“Everything’s perfect.” He said again.
Scott nodded with a smile before looking back.
They were both sitting on Scott’s couch. The couch was big, but they were practically shoulder-to-shoulder.
Neither of them minded, though.
An hour soon passed.
And then two.
And then three.
Time seemed to go quicker when they were together. At least that’s the way it felt for them. “Wow, it’s late.” Scott laughed as he looked at his phone, squinting at the bright screen.
“You should probably—“
Scott stopped mid-sentence as he looked over at mitch and saw him peacefully sleeping.
Scott smiled and breathily chucked. He very carefully got up, grabbing the remote and turning the television volume down.
He grabbed his cotton blanket from his recliner chair and laid it out on top of mitch.
Scott sat back down next to mitch, deciding that if Mitch woke up in a random house without knowing immediately who it was, he’d freak out. So he’ll stay next to him.
Only only for reference, there. Solemnly for reference and nothing else.
Although it did feel nice sleeping next to someone.
