Date Night (Brianna)
There were certain things about going on a date with your roommate that were a little odd. The first thing was that if you planned to surprise your date with anything, it really had to be stashed with a third party, since it was hard to smuggle something like flowers into one's room without one's roommate noticing. The other thing was that Kayla had found herself "borrowing" the floor washroom to get ready, not that there was a lot to do, really- she usually wore only a little makeup and a burgerplace and then dancing at a coffeehouse didn't really call for fancy dress- though she'd dug her best pair of dark jeans from storage and actually bought herself a new top.
<i>No sir, no ratty fandom or band T-shirts for Miss LeBeau.</i> She'd even got a couple of pieces of jewelry, little stud earrings and a birthstone pendant she'd kept from earlier days. She looked fondly at her favorite pair of boots, but it was pretty warm- sandal weather. It felt a little odd to be fussing over herself. And then it came into her mind again that she had a <i>date</i>. Nobody had ever really asked her on a proper date before. She'd kinda sorta had a boyfriend once, but it wasn't really much worth remembering. This was different. There'd be ... okay, not probably candlelight at a burger place, but still, there'd be door opening and dancing and <i>oh god</i> maybe even a goodnight kiss. Hopefully.
And then, they'd go to bed. Ten feet from each other. Which was going to get very interesting very fast if things went well. And that just released a ton of butterflies.
Having finished fussing over herself like she was some kind of girl getting ready for a date or something, she took flowers in her hand and walked downstairs to where they'd agreed they'd meet before walking over to AwesomeBurger for dinner. She was a few minutes early, so she bounced on the balls of her feet slightly, casting a glance upstairs every once in awhile, waiting for Brianna to come down.

Re: As reality comes crashing down upon our heroic couple ...
But leaving was a good idea. She didn't really want to create any problems for a man who'd, all things considered, been rather kind to hire her, despite knowing she came from the mutant school.
"Yeah. Going home would be good." She blushed slightly, thinking about just before the speaker blowing and the idiots starting talking. "C'mon, you. Homeward bound."

"You're a great dancer. We'll do this again soon but maybe we can sneak into a club next time? Once I can make sure I don't blow up the speakers because my girlfriend is giving me the eyes." Brianna said.
Blink.
Did I just call her my--? Oh bloody hell.
"Not to say that you're my girlfriend because we haven't even talked about that. We're doing the slow thing. Forget I said anything." Brianna said, suddenly trying to babble her way backward from that leap of logic.
