This was your second date with Steven. You weren't nervous to be around him but you were nervous to leave a bad impression on him. You were quite surprised that Steven was up for a second date since Steven was such a timid person. But during dinner tonight, Steven was much more open. You couldn't help but admire the way his coffee bean eyes glowed when he talked about Ramses The Fifth. How Egypt had three specific time periods that helped archeologists to lay out time: Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms. Steven's hands would fly in mid-air as he explained The Nile and the creation myth. "You see Y/n, Because the Nile was so important Egypt was seen as the image of the skies, where the gods sailed the "waters on high"; and so the Nile has a heavenly as well as an earthly source. Its flood transforms Egypt into a vast sea likened to the primordial ocean, the Nun. Out of black mud came green shoots of life and out of the primeval ocean came the gods and humans. The Nile-" Steven stopped mid-explanation. You had your chin tucked on top of your hand, as your elbow was on the table. You had a soft smile upon you and a sense of warmth. Steven nervously asked, "Oh dove am I boring you?" You quickly snapped out of the magical trance that Steven had placed you in. "No! Of course not Steven! I really enjoyed listening to hear you talk about history. Well in general I like hearing you talk". You admitted as you looked down at your tiramisu. Steven anxiously chuckled and looked down at his cup of tea. He didn't expect you to say such a kind thing. You turned up to look at Steven, and said "Please do continue, you were saying that The Nile was?" You smiled as he picked up the topic quickly. Time almost didn't seem to exist when the two of you were together at the restaurant. The passing of time, and people blended in together like smooth paint. neither of you noticed that the restaurant was slowly becoming empty. Sooner or later, the waitress asked if you guys needed else before the kitchen closed. "No thank you! Sorry, I suppose we lost track of time. The bill would be nice, please?" Steven asked softly and the waitress smiled as she nodded her head. You began to grab your purse to pay the bill this time, Steven reached his hand over to gently grab your wrist. A small electrical pulse was sent from your fingertips all the way up to your shoulder. Steven attempted to speak without stuttering "Y/n, I got it. You don't have to worry about paying for it" "But you said that last time Steven. Please?" you said as you were pouting. Not at the fact of not being able to pay but the fact that his hand was no longer on your wrist.
The bill was placed on the table, and the waitress bid you both goodnight. Almost like clockwork, the two of you grabbed the bill. This time, his hand lay on top of yours. You looked up at Steven and smiled, his warm callous hand felt so right. Unconsciously Steven began to stroke his thumb on your hand, which made you blush. Steven shook his head and snapped out of it. "I'm sorry Y/n, I don't know what came over me". "Steven, you are fine. I actually-" he cut you off as he said, "There, the dinner is on me tonight. Maybe next time I'll let you leave the tip too". Steven said happily, which made you glad to hear there was a next time. As the two of you left the restaurant, the streets of London were flooded with people. Nothing too overbearing but just the right amount to enjoy the glowing of the soft street lights. The two of you walked to your apartment, Steven insisted on at least drop you off a block away. As you guys were going to reach your apartment, Steven's hand brushed up against yours. Once again, you felt that electric pulse that made your skin raise with goosebumps. Steven was going to apologize but you quickly stated "Steven, what I was going to say back at the restaurant is that. You are fine. I am completely fine with you holding my hand." His ears preached up, and a new glow rises in his eyes. "Really?" he asked wanting to make sure he didn't just dream what you said. You nodded your head as you took out your hand from your coat, Steven looked down at your hand, and whispered "May I, Y/n?" "Yes please, you may". You said sincerely. Steven intertwined his hands into yours. It was the perfect fit. It almost seemed as if the gods had made your hand hold his through anything. You happily leaned on his shoulder, as Steven placed his head into yours. He continued to talk about history as you attentively listened for the rest of the way home. You felt completely safe within Steven's grasp and Steven felt his heartstrings being pulled, he had the sensation to keep you this close, always. If Hathor did exist, she sure indeed knew that the two of you were made from the same cloth and stitched together perfectly.
