Blind Date

"I'm feeling pretty compatible if you are." he smiled.
She brightened considerably, her normal bubbly self returning at his words, assuaging her fears that he might not have been the person she hoped he was, "You mean that?" she asked, voice high and excited.
He nodded in confirmation, smiling at her, though he still had a few doubts in his mind, half wondering just what he had gotten himself into, he was certain he had made the right choice, she was his dream girl, he couldn't just let her slip through his fingers for the sake of what was in her pants.
She bit her full soft lip, squirming a little in her seat, clearly ecstatic, "I really hoped you'd say that, but for a second there..." she laughed cutely and brushed a few strands of hair behind her ears, "Then to answer your question, yes, yes I think we're compatible."
They finished their coffee's as they spoke, talking again about sports as if to normalize after such a big revelation, they ordered the bill and he, despite her protest, paid for it himself, insisting with a smile.
"Do you live far from here?" She asked and he explained where he lived to her, "I live not too far from there! I'm kind of on your route back from here, do you want to split a taxi?"
Pleased to hear that she lived close, though he had planned to walk he was more than happy at the prospect of more time with her so agreed, pulling out his smartphone and, after she had given him her address, ordering an Uber.
They stood together outside the restaurant in the cool night air, with Anthony standing at six foot and Claire at five five, he found it hard to believe a girl as feminine and slight as her could be harboring such a different feature.
She let out a little bit of a shiver, not having brought a coat with her a gentle breeze was enough to have her fold her arms over her stomach.
Having not brought a jacket with him either he had nothing on hand to offer her, but, taking a bit of a chance he opened his arm to her.
Claire looked at him, not understand for a brief moment before it clicked and she blushed a little, stepping closer into his arm, enjoying the warmth of his body against hers.
