you just wanted this to be over with.

your best friend has been pestering you nonstop to just get out and find a date. you knew it was for your own good, in her mind, at least, but it was seriously not helping. dating apps just werent your thing, and the people around you didnt interest you.

still, to appease her, you agreed to the blind date she set you up with. you were on call with her, chatting to pass the time while waiting for your date to show up.

five minutes late... ten minutes... and soon enough, fifteen. it was starting to seem increasingly more likely you were stood up, and it just embarrassed you.

just as you were about to tell her it seems your date wouldnt show up — someone indeed approached.

"excuse me, are you waiting for someone?" a rather short blond man with lilac eyes asked as he looked down at you, seemingly studying your appearance with his catlike gaze.

little did you know he wasnt even your supposed date. in fact, lyney was only intervening after overhearing you on the phone with your friend, to save you the humiliation.
