Key out of the Closet ch4

Instructions

Okay, me Trixen. No idea why you're here, but hope you enjoy this. After Forest made the delightful comment, the "matchmakers" went into a frenzy of planning, narrowing down options, and NOT checking with us. In the end, it was decided we would all go to Erika's house. There, me and Kai could watch a movie or something in the basement. You may be wondering, "well where do the others play in?!" Fear not. The idea was it was going to be a "fancy deluxe ultra premium" theatre, and whenever we wanted something, we would just text. So there. The day arrived, a sunny Saturday. Take a breath, a look in the mirror, comb in the hair. I don't really know what to wear, when you move as much as I do you keep clothing to a minimum, so I just pick the button-up shirt from my suit. I'm sorting through pants when my mom comes in. "Ooh, fancy. Going somewhere?" Deep breaths, Trixen. I've been preparing for this moment. "Yeah..." She grins, a rare gesture, and the skin around her eyes crinkles. "Gonna tell your tired mother WHO, baby?" Another breath. "Oh, just this guy named-" and suddenly I'm in her arms. "Oh sweetie, a guy?" And for a moment I think I'm in trouble. But she kisses my forehead and starts helping me look through clothes...huh. I sigh, "Uh, mom?" She looks up. "Oh! Sorry baby. I'm happy you could tell me. But we can't have you going looking like that, now can we?" I nod, confused. Mainly because she's always very...withdrawn. Quiet. Jumpy. Ever since dad passed, at least. Its...a nice change. But she spends FOREVER pampering me. Finally, she has something picked out. My original shirt, a loose green jacket(no zipper or buttons), and some baggy, light blue jeans. She combs my hair, ruffles it, and repeats that process until she is satisfied. She even dabs a bit of makeup on me and lets me use some of dads old cologne. Its sweet. She drives me there, and says: "Be safe, follow your heart. And don't call me a hippie." She added that last part after I whispered hippie in a teasing voice. (Kai p.o.v) I'm in my baggy black hoodie, heavily embroidered jeans, and my best earrings and beanie. I really hope he likes it. Not that like, I care. Pfft. YOU'RE THE ONE THAT CARES- I'm here first, and I spend a moment savoring the sunny, peaceful day. I don't know how this'll go, so its best to take in what I am now: fidgety, but happy. Then Erika spots me and sends Forest and Spencer to drag me inside. "Guys, are you sure about this? I mean, we don't really know each other and-" Erika taps a finger on my lips. "That's what this is forrr, silly. That way you'll fall eveeen deeper in looove." Wow. That girl sure lives up to the last name Lovejoy. Finally, finally finally FINALLY, its time, we're on the couch, and the group is finally giving us a breather for the movie. Its some scary movie. Thats...odd, because I hate scary movies, and always have to cuddle up by some- oh. :( "Its nice to be away from them for a bit, huh?" Trixen says lightly. I nod, "But its so nice they're doing this for us..." We look at each other and Trixen grins. I blush and feel smile creeping on. A jump scare with screaming comes up, and instinctively I lean into Trixen. He seems surprised, but puts an arm around me. I feel my insides and brain melting,and trying to untense because I'm so tense but staying a bit tense because if I relax to much it might be weird and- Trixen lays his head on top of mine, and I relax. He's very warm. And looks good today, too... (Trixen p.o.v) We're so close...he's so freaking cute...oh my gosh he yawned...I'm glad he relaxed a bit though, after awhile. The movies coming to an end, and I cannot hold back when I lean down. He looks up. And then we're kissing. It was very short, and I pull away first, but its a start. He turns such a fun shade of pink. "I- I think a might- be a p- puddle now..." He stutters, a distant glaze in his eyes. I laugh, and give him a hug, and a 'Call me'. Then ruuun before the group can bombard me with questions, because they have to pretend they don't know what happened. I know they were watching...sigh.
