It's a date.
It wasn't the next day like they'd originally planned. Trying to catch up on the lives they lost led them in different directions, and of course they found issues that needed their immediate attention. Diana had a lead on some Amazonians, while John had to get up to speed on his own architectural firm's current projects, lest they fall apart. The move from New York to Detroit was a surprising one for Shining Light, but he can piece together the logic behind it after the fact. After a call to Shayera Thal, he was able to fill in a few blanks. The Devil's Night partnership with Hawkwoman really brought home how much help this town, his hometown, needs. It's no easy task... there's plenty that needs doing.
But that's work, and he's trying to give it a rest for tonight, to deal with that other thought that's been interrupting his thought processes with some regularity. The fact that he was apparently in love with Wonder Woman, and now he's got to figure out how he managed to work that perfect storm of attraction all over again. It's going to be awkward. He's going to fumble through things, and he hates the thought of it. But she's interested in figuring it out, too, so he's got to hold onto that.
This is a dinner date, at a nice place, to boot, and he's meeting her here, to try and minimize the weirdness that comes from the fact that he's already sharing an apartment with her. He's glad he owns comfortable couches. He's waiting in a nice dark suit, with a red shirt and black tie. Looking about as smooth as he can look, which is pretty damn smooth, if he does say so himself. Well, it would be, if he could stop sweating this whole idea that he's worthy of the woman that's coming to meet him.
Just think about that kiss. She made the upshirt move. She might not be as chaste as everyone thinks she is. She was into it. She's a woman just like anyone else.
She's a woman like no one else.
