Shannon didn't really date anyone, but lately the idea had been.. Intriguing. It was probably because of the new girl that joined his college study group. She was kind of a mystery to him, different from most girls. The group only consisted of a few people in the technology courses. All of them were going into some sort of career, ranging from web design to programming. He, of course, was most interested in the details of computers. He built some from scratch in high school, they were an improvement on one he bought.
He was concerned the handsome nerd with the girl name. It kind of annoyed him, people should learn the history of names. Like the name Taylor, Shannon was a boy name before people started naming their daughters either of those.
Pulling his head out of the clouds, he stared at the cheap fast food joint he was supposed to be meeting his date at. He'd been waiting over half an hour for her, which wouldn't bother him if it wasn't so busy and cold in the place. He sighed and pushed his glasses up on his face, covering his ears with headphones, blasting music.
Some people found his music tastes weird. Not many of them thought he'd be interested in heavy metal or rock. One of his favorite phrases was don't judge a book by it's cover. He closed his eyes and waited for his date.
