The not so Awkward Date

"What are you planning to wear tonight? oh this one looks nice" said Anna while going through Lee's closet trying to find her the perfect dress. 
"Do I have to go? Can't you just call and cancel?"
"You haven't been on a date since ages I can't cancel now, you will  love it"
"Why does it have to be a blind date?" 
"Just to add some excitement,now get your lazy ass off that bed and try this dress on"
"Okay okay, it is a bad idea I am telling you"

"You look beautiful, Shane will love you"
"What ever" 
Shane is Anna's school friend all that Lee knows about him is that he likes the same kind of music and they support the same football team,but is this even a reason to go on a date with someone  Lee thought to herself while driving to the restaurant. 
"I don't even know what he looks like this is going to be such a waste of time, let's get over with this."

"Hello miss I am Tom the manager, how may I help you?"
" Hello, My name is Lee. I am looking for Mr Shane"
"Right this way Madam"
Lee couldn't see Shane's face as he was sitting with his back facing towards them all she could see was that he is a tall looking man. 
"Mr Shane your guest is here"
"Oh thank you Tom,Hi I am Shane" saying that he extended his hand towards Lee 
"Hi I am Lee, sorry to keep you waiting"
"Oh don't worry about it I have a habit of showing up at places before time."

I don't think I have seen someones eyes so blue, his hair is so perfect and he looks amazing, God what am I doing with a man like this he is so perfect he should be kept in a museum Lee thought to herself. 
I don't remember the last time I saw a girl with a smile like that, her smile sure lights up the room, God I hope I don't end up saying something stupid, thought Shane who couldn't get his eyes off Lee.

"So what do you think you would like to order, the tomato soup is really nice" suggested Shane 
"Tomato soup, interesting I haven't ever tried one of those,but may be I will today." saying that Lee smiled and all Shane could think the moment was that he could spend the whole night watching Lee smile. 

 Over dinner they discussed their favourite book, their football team's chances of winning the league, their travel experiences and their love for ice cream, they even had a ice-cream eating contest. After five ice-creams and a whole lot of laughter Lee realised this not to perfect awkward date wasn't that awkward after all.

"I haven't laughed so much in such a long time," said Shane while trying to wipe the ice-cream off his face.
"Me neither, but I sure did beat you at the ice-cream eating contest"
"I will get you next time"

At that moment both of them knew this was a start to something new.
