David blushed, smiling at her, putting a hand on her arm gently. "Thanks, Zip. I'll remember that. Guess I gotta grow up sometime."

"Who said anything about grow up?" She grinned at him. "I'm talking about confidence. You barely need any, you are a great guy. I just met you and already I can tell you are a great listener, you speak well, you are intelligent. People trust you and believe what you have to say. That's gotta count for something, right?" Zippy reached out and squeezed his shoulder.

He shrugged, but smiled. "I guess so. I guess it's just different when you're trying to impress a girl. Then all those qualities just make you 'a nice guy' instead of a boyfriend."

"Who have you tried to impress?" Zippy asked, although what she really wanted to ask was Have you even tried to impress? She couldn't imagine why any girl wouldn't like David.
Although, she wasn't sure if she even liked him like that. But she wasn't a normal girl. Has he tried with any normal girls?!

He lifted a shoulder. "I've been trying to impress you all day."

"Besides me." She answered, grinning. "And you've been successful."

He blushed, grinning. "Only a couple girls. Never worked. But it worked with you?"

"What is your definition of 'worked'?" She teased, smiling and taking a seat at a nearby bench facing the rhinos.

He settled in beside her, daring to drape his arm across the back of the bench, behind her. "Well...if it means you'll go out with me again, for starters." And maybe kiss him before the day was over, but he wasn't brave enough to say that.

"Fine, but I get to pick where we go next time," Zippy replied with a sly grin.

He laughed, grinning back at her. "You got it. Where you wanna go?"

"The Art Institute," Zippy suggested, looking at him. "They opened up a new exhibit, about the Civil War, which I haven't gotten a chance to check out yet." In those words, she hadn't had the time to sneak her way into the museum yet.

David blinked at her. "Wow. That's gonna be one classy date." He smiled at her, letting himself touch her hair.

Zippy pretended to be offended. "What, I don't seem classy to you?"

He laughed, grinning at her. "Nah, that's not it. I'm not."
