It was fucking huge, that house. It always had been. It was also one of the many things that his parents wanted him to stay away from. And, for once, he’d obeyed them. The house scared the shit out of him. It was always looming there, as if it hid something. But, now, he was approaching it to take its only inhabitant out on a date. An actual date, nothing stupid like going to his house, making out, fucking, and calling it off. Dinner. An actual, real life date.
Jackson parked his Porsche in the driveway, approaching the house with a rose in his hand. He couldn’t remember feeling this nervous in a long time, but he wasn’t backing down now. He raised his hand to the heavy wooden door, knocking three times, before waiting. He then adjusted his tie, rocking on his heels as he waited silently for her.
Katerina’s slow–beating heart started beating much faster when he knocked on the door. By the time he knocked on her door, she was still in the middle of finishing off her long and curly styled hair. She popped her head out the window and looked down to the ground from the very top window. & with that she shouted down to him a simple ‘i’ll be right down' before popping her head back in. Immediately, she rushed around her room like a headless chicken gathering her purse and putting on her shoes. Her heels clicked down the twirling stairs.
She swung the heavy door open wide and let out a heavy huff of breath. A bright white smile flashed towards the man standing in front of her. “ Jackson! Hey, you look–––amazing. Sorry I took so long. Hope you didn’t mind the wait. ”

”Gotta say, I can’t understand that. I speak two languages fluently, but I’ve never lived in a country where they don’t speak English. But, yeah, I’m sure it must be weird. And, sure, it’s not too bad, at first. But it gets more and more boring as time drags on and on.”
“ I didn’t think you’d understand. Do you really? What other language do you speak? & no. The language of love doesn’t count unless it’s French or Spanish, and in some cases, Italian. Most words that I say in English are strange. Sometimes translations are difficult because not everything can be taken or translated into a literal sense. Trust me, I've been in this town long enough. It’s not as bad as you see it. ”
”Well, I promise, I won’t be doing that to you. I’m not that type of guy. And do people not use the word douchebag where you’re from? Well, no big deal. And, I know, I am, but you’ll get used to this shitty town. It’s not like we’ve got much longer before college.”
“ Well, I’m glad. I’d like to remove myself from men like that. It’s rather annoying to me. Oh, no. We use words like that all the time. It’s just feels strange being said in––well, English. I don’t know. I don’t think the town is too bad. ”
one of my favourite ship combos is when you have one really grumpy/cranky character or someone deathly serious who never smiles and a really happy/bubbly/energetic character that drags them everywhere and the first character looks really unamused but the happy character’s having the time of their life and then the happy character smooches the grumpy character and the grumpy character just gives this soft little smile and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
”That huge-ass thing…? That’s yours? And you live alone? Damn, I must’ve hit the jackpot or something… You know which one my house is? It’s the modern one off of Bastien.”
“ Now, if you’re just going to use me for money and sex, I’m sure as hell not letting you stick around. I think I’ve seen your house before while I was driving around town, getting familiar with the area. ”
“I’m not so sure about that. You seem pretty interesting to me. And tonight at seven is perfect. Where should I pick you up, beautiful?”
“ This is going to sound rather odd, bu t you know that old house on the corner of Pompeii and Jaques? That’s mine. I live on my own. That was my family’s old vacation home, so I took it. I live there. Actually, I don’t think it’s too far from you. ”
”Royals? I must say, you’re the most interesting person that this town’s ever had. I’m sure she was quite beautiful, too. And how about I treat you to a night out? Dinner and dessert, and maybe a movie?”
“ I assure you, I’m not that interesting.” [ lies. ] “ Queen Katerina was rather beautiful. & I’ve heard her husband wasn’t too bad, either. Actually, I’d enjoy that. How about tonight at seven? We can find out a bit more about each other. I can tell there’s something different about you. ”
