You Make My Dreams
Grim takes Treasure out to dinner.
Author's Notes
âJust calm down! âthe guy in front of me screamed at meâ, you ainât taking her out for the first time, you two have been out like this one hundred times, and counting. So chill, itâs gonna be just fine, and you know it! Whatâs this fucking fuss all about? âI glanced over the mirrorâ. Itâs all about a simple dinner âI tucked in my shirtâ. Thatâs right! âmy reflection answered a last time.
I stopped that nonsense of speaking to myself through the mirror and checked the time, last thing I wanted was to be late to top my nerves. What nerves, though? If anything sheâs the one that gotta be nervous. Â A sly smile complimented the thought.
I brushed off the initial ramble I had with myself, pretending it never happened, stepped out of the bathroom, and felt pretty comfortable knowing that I was gonna be on time, as per usual.Â
I made my way out of the apartment, keys into the car and outta to take my sweet baby girl for a fantastic night, I was part of it anyway, so itâs already set up to be fantastic.Â
The ride is fairly calm, nothing very exciting happens while it, but I made sure to have some sweet tunes to fill the air. When I was nerby, I texted her to be ready, couldnât get be late for a reservation.
Iâll be there soon, you better not
be lying and make me waitÂ
outside like the last time ;)
Her answer made me smirk. I touched the screen to answer, I was still on red light anyway.
No way I could do that to you,
princess.
I accelerated to be there  before she went down, but I was only two blocks away, so it had been barely one minute, if anything. I lowered the window as I stopped in front of her building; she was looking gorgeous.
âWhatâre you waitinâ for, baby? Come in!Â
She opened the door and was quickly inside, I didnât wait much to start moving the car once again. I gave her some side looks.
âYou look sweet, baby doll.
âOh, do I? âshe batted her eyelashes, I loved every single minute of it.
âAh princess, you really love getting the praise, huh?
âIf you know me well... âshe winked.
Side glances the whole way to the restaurant, I couldnât keep my stare out of her. Small talk with generic filler of how our days went, I knew it couldnât vary much from what she often told me, but listening wasnât a chore of any kind.Â
By the time the topic wasnât âthis is what I did at work todayâ anymore, it was filled with describing words of appetite.Â
âI gotta say, the Lasagna does look good.
âI told you baby, I could only bring you to one of the best places for eating Italian food.
âDonât flatter yourself so much âshe giggled, in a slightly sassy way.
I smirked to the comment, while raising a cup of wine to make a small toast before eating.
After the dinner, I made sure to not drink too much, but I couldnât control whether or not my doll did, or not so much, so she ended a bit tipsy that what I did. Treasure was certainly far more upbeat ever since, giggling in the middle of our conversation.Â
âIâd like if you came in with me⌠âshe whispered to me with puppy eyes, we were only 5 blocks away from her building.
âIâm impressed about how much sweet you become after a few cups of wine âI teased with a sly smile.
âAt least I donât make a fool of myself whenever I let it happen! âshe crossed her arms on her chest and I couldnât help but laugh at her childist reaction.
âHow can I say no to such a cute princess, anyway?Â
What I want, you've got
And it might be hard to handle
But like the flame that burns the candle
The candle feeds the flame, yeah yeah
âWhat I've got's full stock of thoughts and dreams that scatter! âI sang along.
âYou know this song?
âYou pull them all together âI stood up from the couch and grabbed her by the hand, making her stand up.
âThis is so out of character of you âshe giggled following along.
And how, I can't explain
Oh yeah, well well you
âYou make my dreams come true... âI held her close and sang low on her ear, drunkenly trying to make coherent sounds and dance movements.
Well well you, oh yeah
You make my dreams come true
The pretty giggles she made could only cause me to look at her face, her cute eyes. Holding  her cheeks, I sang along.
âGirl oh yeah âand clumsily kissed her after, both laughing at our inability of making coherent actions. I kicked a empty wine bottle by accident on our dance.
On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they're messin' with a dreamer
I can laugh it in the face
Our hands were tight, our movements a slower than the music tune, the air was filled with th sweet scent of her perfume, and I was inundated with it. She stepped over me a few times, but we were both without shoes long ago, so it didnât hurt. My doll couldnât stop giving me cheek kisses, and I couldnât stop singing to that damned old song.
Twist and shout my way out
And wrap yourself around me
'Cause I ain't the way you found me
And I'll never be the same, oh yeah.
âI got you a lil somethinâ âI interrupted our dance, the music was still going.
She didnât answer, but seemed interested. Â I walked away, I was looking for my jacket, when I spotted it, I almost fell. I managed to regain balance, not without cursing in the process and get the stupid thing. I was searching through the pockets of it, how many does this fucking thin have, anyway? Until my fingers bumped with a small box. I got it out, hid it behind me and got to her.
âApologies baby girl, but I legit forgot about giving you these when we were dining âI offered the box to her.
âDid I really make you that nervous? âmy only answers was a laugh, she began opening the box.
I'm down on the daydream
Oh that sleepwalk should be over by now
I know
A set of golden earrings, moon shaped with stars hanging was inside. She made a big smile and immediately started taking off the ones she had on to put those on.
Ah you, yeah yeah you make my dreams come true, oh yeah
I've been waiting for, waiting for you girl, oh yeah
You make my dreams come true
âI love them! âshe hugged me right after looking at her through a small pocket mirror I got no clue were she got from.
âThatâs the best payoff I ever wouldâve received âI hugged her back to kiss her clumsily once again, letting ourselves get consumed from what was left of this endless cheesy song.
Wooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I've been waiting for you girl
