Waiting

[deadlikegeorge.livejournal.com]

George sits in Common Room with her headphones on, listening to Sufjan Stevens sing about zombies and Illinois as she waits for Jayne to pick her up for their date. She's a little nervous and uncertain about seeing him, and wonders if he's recovered enough from his stay at the clinic to enjoy the evening. She wonders where he's taking her. She wonders how long they'll be out on their date.

She wonders if he'll kiss her goodnight.

She shakes her head at the thought. What the hell are you thinking, George?

She sighs, tilts her head back until it's resting against the wall behind her, and ignores the persistent fluttering of what could only be described as butterflies in her stomach.

George smothers a grin. "'Lead on! The night is waning fast!'" she misquotes wrly, allowing herself to be led into the cool evening air.
