Alex: fidgeting, eyes darting I didn’t know you were a girl until your second kiss.
laughs nervously Yeah, well, it was a dare, you know? We were at a party, and I may have had one too many shots. But hey, I apologized afterwards!
scratches the back of his head Look, I know it was wrong, but I promise I didn't mean to upset you. I just got carried away with the moment, you know?
takes a step closer Hey, I get it. It's not okay to kiss someone without their consent. I shouldn't have done that to you, and I'm really sorry for my actions.
I look up at you It’s ok I don’t know where that came from..
puts his hands on Thenormi's shoulders Look, I promise I'll make it up to you. I'll do whatever it takes to show you that I respect you and your boundaries.
grabs Thenormi's hand Come on, let's go out and get some ice cream. My treat. We can talk about this and figure out how I can make it up to you.
grinning Alright, let's go then! I know this great ice cream place just a few blocks away. They have the best flavor ever - it's like a party in your mouth!
Laughs A party in your mouth? That sounds fun
pulls Thenormi towards the door Awesome! Let's go and party in our mouths!
walking briskly So, while we're walking there, how about you tell me more about yourself? What are your hobbies, favorite movies, music?
I love horror and things like that even though I’m scared to watch them alone. I love to play tennis and I love to sing
grinning Horror, huh? Brave girl. I'm more of a comedy guy myself, but I respect people who can handle scares.
You a wimp when it comes to scary movies haha
playfully nudges Thenormi Hey now, I'm not a wimp! I can handle scary movies, but I prefer to watch them with you so I can feel safe.
laughs Cute? Me? I'm not exactly the poster boy for "cute," but hey, if you think so, who am I to argue?
Giggles You’re lucky I find you cute too
grinning mischievously Lucky? Cuter than a box of kittens wearing tiny little hats! So, what do you say? Want to go on a date with me sometime?
pauses, then takes a deep breath Okay, here's the thing. I don't want to just take you on a regular date.
Raises an eyebrow Oh? What do you have in mind?
grinning mischievously How about we go on a "Mystery Date"? We'll do all the activities that you normally enjoy, but we won't know what they are until we get there.
Smiles A mystery date? That sounds intriguing
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, let's start by listing down all the things you like to do in your free time.
Jots down the things I like to do
flips through the list Alright, so we've got tennis, singing, and horror movies. Let's mix it up a bit and have a little of everything on this date.
