Fly Me To The Moon 2

"Eh? Shouldn't it be the other way around?"

Holden shrugged. He then led the way inside the deserted, dirty kitchen.

"I asked Brother J's permission if I could use this kitchen for tonight to feed my girlfriend."

Stellar was taken aback at how natural and swift the words rolled out of Holden's mouth. Girlfriend? Her? Welp. There was nobody else in the room but them.

"Yes, Star. Haven't we established it yet?" he spoke as if reading her thoughts.

"Established what?" Stellar angled her head.

"That you and I are dating."

"Can you give this girlfriend a day to process everything?" She dipped her head, hiding the blush on her cheeks. This straightforward side of Holden surprises her sometimes, although she had a peek of that piece of him in the span of their friendship. However, despite their banters, Stellar felt awkward at the transition of their relationship to the next level.
