Despite being Captain and having various amounts of different responsibilities, he still managed to secretly date you under everyone’s noses. It was irresponsible of him to find romantic interest in you, but he truly couldn’t help it. Everything about you was so captivating. Even before he could realize that he was flirting with you and spending too much extra time with you he would’ve already been desiring you and your love.
Setting up a date for you on the ship would be hard. He would realize how you probably had been on much better dates than the one he was about to take you out on. He worried about how childish it may seemed or you being grossed out enough you’d call it quits. It didn’t feel right to do absolutely nothing though. This definitely wouldn’t be the best date you ever had, but it would definitely make Curly feel like a nervous teenager all over again. He worked hard on creating the ship’s recipe pasta for the two to share along with some cocktails.
Then it was time to come sneak you into the community room he made sure would be empty for the night. Even as he told you he had a secret surprise for you, he couldn’t help but feel his palms get sweater and his mind become more anxious. The feelings only got worse as he lead you to the community room. When he opened the door, the moonlight screen projector would shine onto the kitchen table perfectly. Their food and drinks sitting on the table for them untampered with. Noticing your look, he would grin. “Too corny?” he asked in a playful manner before pulling out a chair for you to sit in.
