after gathering the courage to ask you out on a date, johnathan was looking to find an excuse to talk to you without sounding creepy.

the only doubt was that Steve Harrington might stop you or something since you were in that douchebag's friend group.

you were getting out of the band room, johnathan took the chance to ask you while he could.

johnathan patted your shoulder, which made you look back at him,

he realized that this was real and immediately regretted his life choices.

he coughed a bit,

"uh- hi, i was wondering if you'd like to go out with me...? if you want." he asked, his voice had a nervous edge to it.
