Can I Ask You a Personal Question? || Connor x Fem!Reader || D:BH

Connor's POV

I looked at Hank as I was putting on my tie. "Are you sure, Lieutenant?"

"Yeah, go have fun. If anything happens, I'll call."

I slipped my blazer over arms. "Got it. I'll do the same."

Hank gave me a nod. "Sure." I looked in the mirror, noticing that my eyes looked worried. I adjusted my blazer and tie. I saw Hank roll his eyes behind me and sit on his bed. "You'll be fine."

(y'n) stepped out of the bathroom and smiled at me. She wore nice jeans, a loose shirt, and a warm cardigan. "Sorry I don't have anything nicer to wear."

I shook my head. "No, you look great."

Her face turned pink. "Thanks. Are you ready to go?"

I nodded. "Yes. I believe so." I looked over at Hank, who shooed us out.

I went to the door and opened it for (y/n). She gently touched her chest with her fingertips and gave me a goofy but cute smile. "Thank you, sir."

I chuckled and closed the door behind us. We went outside and began walking. I suggested going to dinner, but (y/n) didn't want to be the only one eating, so we just settled on exploring the town. She took my hand and gently swung our arms. I glanced at her and looked her up and down. "You really do look beautiful."

Her face turned red again as she smiled to herself. "Stop it. You're making me blush."

"Is that what that is?"

She looked up at me. "What?"

I tilted my head. "I've noticed that your face sometimes turns red when I compliment or touch you."

"Oh." She let out a nervous laugh and her face went even more red. "Um... Yeah. That's blushing."

I smiled. "It's cute."

She stopped and covered her face with her hands. "Ahhhh... Stoooop."

I looked back at her. "But you're smiling. Do you really want me to stop?"

"Yes?" She squinted her eyes, seeming unsure of herself. "It's a complicated feeling."

I went up to her and took her hand again. "I think I understand. Sort of."

She giggled and began walking with me again. "So... When are we supposed to go back to Detroit?"

I frowned. "We'll have to leave by tomorrow night. I don't think that Captain Fowler will be pleased with our lack of progress."

She shrugged. "Who knows. Maybe we'll catch Rhys before then."

"Perhaps."

She nudged my shoulder. "Now lighten up. I didn't mean to make you upset."

"You didn't make me upset. I'm happy to be here with you."

She smiled and squeezed my hand slightly. "Good. I'm happy to be here with you, too."

After a short silence, I figured I should try to spark a conversation. "Have you spoken to your parents recently?"

"Uh, yeah actually."

I tilted my head. "What did you talk to them about?"

She shrugged. "Not a whole lot. They said that they would like it if I visited for the holidays this year... I may have mentioned you."

I smiled. "Really? May I ask what you said?"

"I just told them that I met this really cute and sweet guy. And that I've really grown to like him."
