IN THE CAR I JUST CAN'T WAIT, TO PICK YOU UP FOR OUR VERY FIRST DATE.
Brendin had ended up sick with a 72 bug right before his and Catalina's first date. Needless to say, he felt like an even bigger idiot having to cancel on her. It was her nature to want to baby him but he'd kept her away; afraid she would only come down with whatever nasty it was. But maybe it was a good thing as well, as he'd had no idea what to take her to do and by postponing a week, there was a cute cultural workshop at the Canadian Museum of Immigration that Brendin bet Lina would like. Who wouldn't like decorating Easter eggs like a traditional Ukranian?!
Rising early on Saturday, Brendin made himself a quick breakfast and had a brisk run, something he did every day as the animal in him required the exercise and open space. Back at his dorm, he showered and went through the 'beauty' regime that Nacola and Roxy has explicitly laid out for him at the beginning of the year. He noted that his hair was getting longer and would need a trim, else the two younger girls start harping on him. It was really against his normal nature to take so many steps to get ready but for Catalina, Brendin didn't care how long it took. The shifter dressed casually, though not overly so. He had not planned anything fancy but he certainly didn't want to go dressed in jeans and a tee.
There was some primping and a ten minute struggle getting his contacts in, but finally he was ready. Keys were collected along with the pretty bouquet of spring flowers that the shifter had purchased for the angel before he took the trek to Lina's dorm. With a deep breath, Brendin cleared his throat and knocked on her door.
