Demise.

Prosper checked himself before leaving his house. He picked out an outfit that wasn’t to dressy and wasn’t to casual.

Achilles was sitting on the floor watching him.

“What do you think killy?”

He tilted his head to the side and put stood up wagging his tail. A flannel jacket, jeans and a pair of vans. Prosper put out a fresh bowl of water and food for the dog and cracked the back door open just in case.

He headed over to Norah’s and texted her.

here (:

She came out in a matter of two minutes, Prospers eyes scanned every single part of her body. He was dying slowly but surely.

Her skirt hugged every single curve and her crop tee rode just above her belly button. He couldn’t take it.

“Hi.” she said smiling.

He was grinning now and he couldn’t seem to get rid of it.

“You look nice, did you get this pretty for me?” he teased.

She laughed and put her hand on his chest softly and leaned close. Prosper felt his knees feeling slightly weak.

“Eat your heart out Wayland.”

Oh boy. he thought.

When Norah opened the door her mother was setting the table and her father was coming down the stairs. Prosper started to get nervous cause these people looked very sophisticated and he had NO clue how to act or what to say.

“Norah” Prosper whispered. “What if they hate me?”

“They won’t hate you, trust me just be yourself.”

She patted his hand giving him a little confidence and he just wanted to grab her hand and hold it the whole entire time.

“You must be Prosper, it’s nice to meet you!” Her mother said smiling and gave Prosper a small hug.

“Nice to meet you too Mrs. Jones.”

“Come inside Norah, hang up his coat.” she said.

I looked at Norah and she smiled. “Told you.”

During Dinner Prosper laughed as Norah’s Dad was cracking jokes and telling them about how his fellow employees were no good lazy pricks who would stare at the ladies as they walked out of the bathrooms. Prosper occasionally felt Norah’s knee brush hers and he slightly looked and her hand on her lap.

He was tempted but he controlled himself.

“This was a great dinner, thanks for inviting me over.”

“Oh, you’re more than welcome Prosper, you’re welcome anytime.” She said smiling.
After they were done eating and Norah was helping her mom clean up Norah’s little brother Liam pulled his pant leg.

“Prosper, can you play legos with me please?”

“Sure buddy.”

He pulled Prosper over to a bin of legos and they both sat down on the floor.

“Alright, heres the deal. Do you like Norah?”

“Yes I do, she’s a very pretty girl..”

Since when does a four year old have such an extended vocabulary? Propser was highly amused.

“Then why don’t you kiss her?”

“Cause.. She just wants to me my friend.”

Prosper held a lego between his fingertips and twirled it lightly.

“Not what I heard.”

He looked at Liam and raised an eyebrow.

How could he know so much about relationships at four? Norah must really educate him or make him watch chick flicks.

“What do you mean?”

“Norah tells me everything.”

“I’ll give you ten dollars if you tell me.” I say quickly.

“Nuhuh. You’ll just have to figure it out yourself.”

This little boy is evil.
