Okay, so, remember how I said that Chloe really liked that stud-muffin Seth? Well she asked him out (yesterday), and here's how the conversation went:
Chloe: being the brave one that she is, she just jaunted up to him and said, "Wanna catch a movie sometime?"
Seth: "um, uh, umm.."
Chloe: "Or dinner? Or something else?"
Seth: "Well, its j-just that, umm, I'm-m-m alive, and your... n-n-nnot."
Chloe: tearing up and getting angry, said "So, you won't going out with me because I'm not trad?!"
Seth: "Please don't get mad. Its just, p-people might--"
Chloe: "People might WHAT?! People might say something!? Who cares!" Now she had tears rolling down her face, not because he rejected her, but why he said no. If he had said (and meant it) that he said no because they didn't know each other well, she would've been fine. Totally, "whatever." But it wasn't like that. Then he said,
Seth: "I don't mind that your a zombie, just, my parents would."
Chloe: "Get out of here Seth! If you hate zombies that much, then why'd you come!?
Seth: "I tol-"
Chloe: "Go!" After he left, she muttered, "It was a rhetorical question."
She's really upset. She's still in her room crying. We've tried to help her, but she made us leave. After I post this I am going up to help her...
So, remember what I said about Matthew? Well... Z gave me some advice: "Ask him out. Guys like it when you take charge." So I did. And... HE SAID YES!!!!! I was IM-ing with Yuuka, and she helped me to work up the courage, so I walked over, had this conversation below, then went back and told Yuuka what happened.. Oh yeh this happened on Wednesday, or maybe it was Thursday. Not sure. But.. here we go:
I walked over to him and said...
me: "hey matthew, will you come here a sec?"
matthew: "sure" then we walked into the other room.
me: "umm, I was wondering, do you wanna, maybe, go to a movie or something?"
matthew: "are you asking me out?"
me: "kinda.. yeh." but I was thinking- no duh dude!
matthew: "well, I was actually" and right then I was positive he was gonna say no, or that he was gonna ask someone else out, but he said... "well i was actually gonna ask you out tonight."
me: "really!? oh, cool! Well, do you wanna....."
matthew: "go to a movie? we could see the new transformers... u said u wanted to see it?"
me: "sure, i'd luv 2!"
matthew: "awesome! well, i think the guys are gonna be asking me a ton of questions cuz they're standing behind you telling me to meet them outside, so... I'll see you later? 7:30?
me: (after I looked behind me to see them gestering towards the door): "great! I'll.. see you then!"
So, at seven thirty, I met him back at the Graveyard, and we drove to the movies. Here's what happened:
He came, we drove talked on the way to the movies. We saw Transformers 2 and it was great!!! He put his arm around me at the movies. And oh yeh this was my first date. Ever. Yeh. So it was really special. After the movie, we hung out at the Graveyard (luckily everyone else went into another room). I had so much fun! He didn't kiss me. But we're going on another date tomorrow. I can't wait! I'll give you all the details!
Have fun!
