I think I'm Falling for You. Part 3!
A million thoughts were running through Eliza’s head before holding Darren’s hand, but in the end she went for it. Darren just squeezed her hand and smiled at her. “Can we watch a movie?” Darren asks. “Of course, go the bookshelf and find one you would like to watch!” Eliza replies with all smiles. Darren brings back of The Little Mermaid, one of Eliza’s favorite movies. “Oh Darren, that’s my favorite movie!” “Well it just so happens I love this movie too!” Darren pops it in the DVD player and it starts. Eliza and Darren are singing loudly to Part of Your World, by the end of the song Eliza and Darren both are laughing at each other. Eliza doesn’t know how she ended up cuddled into Darren’s side, but she hopes he’s okay with it. “Hey Dare, Is it okay if I’m cuddled up to your side. If its uncomfy let me know and-.” Darren cuts her off before she can say anymore and tells her in a reassuring voice, “don’t worry; I’m letting you lay like this right? And it’s pretty comfy for me, don’t worry your pretty little mind.” Darren softly kisses the top of Eliza’s head and she just lets it be.
“God I wish I was a mermaid!” “Uh, Darren, you can’t be a mermaid.” “Why?” “Well, you’re a man so you’d be a merman.” “Oh yeah, Well I wish I was a merman. I would want to swim underwater all day!” Eliza just laughs at Darren and hides her face in his side. “I’m hungry” Darren tells Eliza. “What do you want to eat?” “Food.” Darren says with a smirk. “Smartass, but really what would you like to eat.” Eliza playfully smacks him on the arm. “Get dressed in something nice. I’m taking you out to eat.” Darren tells Eliza. “What! I don’t have enough time to get ready! Really Darren!” “Just take your time! If you want I’ll keep you company until you get done, then we’ll swing by my house for a few minutes so I can get ready!” “Fine, but I’m trying on dresses, and you’re telling me which one because I don’t want to be over-dressed.” Eliza says as she’s walking towards her room. The first dress she tries on is a simple gray dress with sparkles, Darren denies it and says go a little simpler. Next one is a bright red dress party dress with a low back on it with black pumps, Darren simply says yes.
Eliza invites him back to her bathroom so she can have company when she does her hair and make-up. Eliza’s room is a sea foam green color with accents of chocolate brown on her walls. Her bed is huge for one person, but Eliza just thinks her bed is beyond comfy so she had to get the king size. Her bedspread has 4 big patches, 2 are the chocolate brown and the other 2 are taupe colored. Her room is just a comfy room with pictures all over. Your bathroom is huge, and so it Sophie’s. Darren is thrilled with Eliza’s bed and jumps on it, “Oh my God. So. Comfy! Can I live on this bed?” “Sorry Darren, that one is mine, but if you want we can watch movies or TV in here so you can lie on the bed.” “Yes, yes, yes, yes! That would be awesome!” Darren says as he’s jumping up and down on Eliza’s bed. “Alright, calm down. Come sit in here and keep me company.” Eliza tells Darren. Eliza has a haircut inspired by Dianna Agron’s short hair, but her hair is a light brown. She has dark brown eyes, and long lashes (one of her favorite features of herself). Eliza has always been comfortable with how she looks because Sophie has given her tons of confidence over the years. As Eliza finishes straightening her hair and doing her make-up she and Darren leave for his apartment. Eliza makes sure to leave a note for Sophie so she doesn't freak out when she comes home.
Eliza and Darren walk to his car, which is parked a couple of block away. When they’re walking their hands brush past each other a lot, this doesn’t bother Eliza or Darren. When they reach his car Darren opens Eliza’s door for her and closes it. He jogs around to his side and turns on his Hyundai Veloster. Top 40’s music is blaring, Eliza and Darren start singing to Everybody Talks, by Neon Trees. “Wow, I didn’t know you could sing. You’re pretty awesome.” “Well thanks! I love singing!” Eliza replies giving Darren on of her smiles that he loves so much. Darren pulls up to his apartment and opens Eliza’s door for her once again. “Thank you, Darren.” Eliza tells him, grabbing his hand, and letting him lead the way to his apartment. He opens the door to his apartment and it’s actually cleaner than Eliza thought it would be. Darren just says he’ll be right back, and in a few minutes he’s dressed in a black tux with a red bowtie. “Well you clean up nice.” Eliza tells him giving him a hug. “So do you,” Darren replies as he pulls away and slips an arm around her waist. “We’re walking to our destination.” Darren tells Eliza. “Where are we going!” “My lips are sealed” Darren tells her with a smile on his face.
