It started with a look (Mike Schmidt X OC)

"Hello..."

Melody's POV

We were staring into each other's eyes from across the room for a while until he shook his head and looked away.
I was slightly disappointed that he did, he had the most amazing eyes.. 'Wait what am I thinking?! I don't even know the guy!!' I sigh and look around at the other people. I can't seem to find Lucy anywhere..
Suddenly some drunk, messy looking girl comes running up to me and hugs me. I flinch at the touching.
"MELODAAAAYYY!" She says a little too loud, "SOOO GLAD YOU COULD MAKE IIIITTTAAA!!"
Yep. She's drunk.
"Hi Lucy." I replied, an annoyed look on my face.
"HEY HEY HEY!!! There's HEEAPS of boys here! Maybe you can find your Mr.Right!"
"I highly doubt it, Lucy. People aren't really drawn to my personality, remember?"
"Wellllll.. C'mon just go talk to a boy Mel!"
"First, it's Melody not Mel. Second, I might. Who's that sitting on the couch over there..?" I say, looking back over at the handsome man
"That's Mick Schmidt.. No wait.. Mike.. Yeah Mike Schmidt," Lucy started "he's a bit of an asshole and he doesn't really talk to people. The only reason I invited him was because he lives next door" she spat. Obviously he wasn't her favourite person.
"Lucy, go have fun. I'll talk to people, promise." I said with a slight smile, still looking at Mike
"Awright!" And with that she was back in the crowd of dancing and drunk people.

I decided to go talk to Mike, seeing as he was the only person who wasn't obviously drunk or with other obnoxious people.

Mike's POV

I looked up to see if she was still there, and sure enough she was. But she was moving.. Towards me. I started to panic a little 'alright Schmidt, whatever you do, don't fuck this up!' I thought to myself as she made her way over to me. 'God, even when walking she looks like a piece of beautiful art'
I shake my head and look down, scared that I'll mess this up for myself.
I stare at my feet when all of a sudden black converse are in front of me. I slowly move my head up, looking at the girl's feet, knees, thighs, waist, stomach, chest, neck and finally, her face. 'She is even more gorgeous up close..'

Melody's POV

He's staring at me.. 'Is there something in my teeth? Oh god I hope not..' I start to internally panic until a quiet "wow.." Escapes his lips. I slowly calm down and being up the nerves to talk to him
"Hi." I say, fear of rejection obviously in my voice
"H-he-ll..."
That's so cute! He doesn't know what to say!
He clears his throat. "Hello..."
His voice is stern but gentle, it makes me curious about him.
"I'm Melody. And you are?" I already knew the answer but it's polite to ask, especially if you're talking to someone as awing as he is..
"M-Mike, nice to m-meet you Melody..?"
He was obviously scared, but I found it cute.. 'Argh! Mind, stop making me think like this and Heart, stop making me feel like this!!'
"Nice to meet you t-too.." Fuck. I stuttered. Shit shit shit.
"So uh.." He started, "you look beautiful" We both blushed, me a little less than him. "I mean! Um.. I.. Urm.."
"Th-thanks.. I-is this seat t-taken?" I ask, making a hand gesture towards the spot next to him on the couch
"Y-yeah.. I mean no! Y-you can sit th-there is.. What I meant.."
I giggled at his embarrassment and say next to him on the couch. It was a small couch so we were almost touching, it made me blush a little more. 'What the fuck is going on with me..?'
"What's so funny?" He asked, snapping me back to reality away from my train of thought
"You're blushing. You're stuttering. It's kinda.." I trailed off
"Weak?" He asked, looking at the ground once more.
"Cute." I replied confidently.
He obviously wasn't reader for that because he looked up at me surprised and a little shocked "y-you think it's c-cute?"
I nodded, a kind smile on my lips and a pink blush on my cheeks
His face basically turned into a tomato, Mike was blushing all over.
I shuffle over a little so our legs and arms are touching and whisper in his ear "you're cute."
Mike looks at me really shocked and blushing as much as possible, looking as though nobody has called him that in his entire life, causing me to giggle a bit.
"H-hey Melody.."
"Yes Mike?"
