I mean as in a date. Shane practically had to will herself not to shuffle her feet in nervousness. Her nervousness became something worse, something heart wrenching as each second went by without a reply from MJ. Holy *****, shes going to say no.

All but ten seconds must have past but to Shane it was an eternity before MJ spoke. What did you say?

Shane had to clear her throat before replying, A date, do you want to go on a date?

MJ could not believe what she was hearing. Shane who herself proclaim she has never been on a date was asking her out.

Her lack of answer was getting to Shane. Huh, I guess this was a mistakeIm going to go. Yeah. She so wanted to kick something at that moment. Great, just great. I just made a fool out of myself.

That effectively woke MJ out of her stupor. Waittell me what you want Shane.

Shane stopped and looked toward her. You want to know what I want?

MJ swallowed nervously as Shane made her way toward her. She whispered a yes as Shane moved in to capture her lips. The kiss did not last long and was chaste in itself but it robbed them of their breath.

Shane rested her forehead against MJ, smiling at her almost shyly. So about that dinner. What do you say?

This time it was MJ who cleared her throat before answering a simple yes. She herself was smiling.

Shane took her hand and started to head out. Uh, shouldnt I change before we go? MJ looked down at her jeans and grumpy top worriedly.

Nah, you look perfect the way you are especially for where we are going.

Uh, where exactly are we going?

Dont sweat it. Its a surprise.

Once they stepped out into the night, Shane turned to MJ, I didnt realize how cool it has gotten. Do you want to get a jacket or something?

MJ wrinkled her nose, more curious than anything now as to where they are going. Im good.

They didnt have to go far before reaching their destination. Were going to your apartment?
