THE RIVALRY BEGINNING Elle H (EPHtheCoder) x Bill Cipher (But Not Quite)

4:3: Identity Revealed.

ELLE'S POV:

Tall, eccentric, magical, I just couldn't believe it. But of course, I've known nothing yet. Hopefully I'll learn more about him as soon as we get out of the house. Also, more hopefully, his name.
Frozen, figuratively, of "blue"shing so much, I even forgot to breathe a couple times and my heart kept skipping beats

Me: Um, Elijah, can I talk with you alone for a second?

Elijah: Sure, sis.

Me: We'll be right back.

???: Ok, don't keep me waiting too long.

Sneaking out of Mom's room, I shut the door and turn to Elijah.

Me: Elijah. I can't believe I'm saying this but...He's so PRETTY I'm gonna cry, what do I do?

Elijah: I don't know, dude. Just face him the best you can and chill like you always do.

Trying to catch my breath, I attempted to look reassuring.

Me: Yeah, ok, yeah you're right. Why am I worried?

Happily, I scoffed out my worry as Elijah giggled. Then I felt someone behind me. Turning my head, I see-

Me: My secret admirer! Um-I mean, hi, dude, um, are you, uh...ready to go, or?

???: Whenever you are, sweetie.

He almost touched my chin but luckily I stepped back to avoid more "blue"shing. Innocently, I gave him two thumbs up.

Me: Cool, dude. I'll be right behind ya.

???: Oh don't be, please, let's be next to each other.

🎵Here come the sparks🎵
Elle, focus! Still though, what a gentleman. Humana, Humana-did I think that out loud?

Yes you did, silly goose!, Elijah thought-replied.

Well, things could get worse but the only thing I needed to worry about was getting through the date.

???'S POV:

So adorable, so intelligent, yet so naive. Arm and arm, I opened the door for the both of us to walk out in style. The little boy in red shouted "Bye, Elle!", before I gently shut the white wooden door behind us.

Finally, the plan is working and no one around us will be aware of my true intentions.

Me: Alright, Blue, let's get in the car.

She suddenly froze in shock, figuratively, with her eyes wide open.
Under her breath, she asked "What did you just say?".

Me: You heard me, Ms IQ, let's hop in.

Her direct thoughts were: There's only one person I know who calls me that. Could it be him?

Me: What's the matter?

She replied "Sorry, it's just...you kind of remind me of someone that...no I shouldn't say, I don't want to ruin our night." Putting her right hand on her cheek and her left behind her extravagant afro, she tried to conceal her embarrassment. Of course it failed but it was still so cute.

Me: No, no, it's ok, what's the 1st thing that pops into your head when you see me?

"Bill!", she suddenly uttered then she gasped while covering her mouth, not believing what came out of it. So silly as always, I had to chuckle.

Me: Bill? Bill what?

Pressuring her just for the fun of it, I just wanted to hear that name.

Say it, sweetie, say it!
