i almost dragged jo to my bed after our little teasing fest but i need tonight to be special. instead of driving i decided to book a cab. i didn't want to worry about my car, especially on the streets of L.A.
we're now sitting in the cab, i rub my hand to her inner thigh, this dress looks so good on her. she instantly closes her legs and looks out the window, i know she's trying to resist. i love the way she responds to my touch, yet i rather have her screaming my name in my bed right now.
"i know what your feeling right now." i whisper into her ear.
"w-what?" her voice shaky
"your mouth is dry, your slowly starting to sweat, and you have a beat.. down there, don't you? closing your thighs won't help anything love." i know she's embarrassed right now, not because of my words but because there's another person in here with us. i bet that prick of an uber driver has heard and seen much much worse. i expect her to just nod her head but instead she leans over into my ear, "if you want me to be able to wait till tonight you better stop." she says with a big smirk on her face. "your right baby, your just so fucking sexy it's hard to resist." i grin back at her and give her a quick kiss on the cheek. the uber pulls over and were at our destination. we both get out of the car, god i love the city at night. we see people walking around, festival's, bars and restaurants and book stores lined up on the street, and fairy lights everywhere. i never really got to see it, i was always either wasted or beating someone up. not something i'm very proud of. she looks around looking memorized, i hope she loves it as much as i do. "it's beautiful down here hero." she hugs me and gives me a kiss. "that's why i wanted to bring you here love." she removes her arms and i instantly grab her hand, our fingers laced with one another's. she looks down and smiles, she's so beautiful.

"where are we walking to?"
"you'll see baby, it's just across the street."

we walk up to the fancy dinner, it's pretty small but the food is delicious and it's beautiful.

we walk up to a fancy diner, oh my god it's beautiful. it looks like the fancy restaurants people in movies go to, he must have spent a fortune on this because i know places like this you have to get reservations. "hero, it's beautiful. how much was this?" we both still stand in front of the diner, he takes both his hands in mine. "baby, it doesn't matter how much it costs. i want to prove to you that i want you, and try and make up all my mistakes in the past, and go on a nice date with my beautiful aussie girl." i blush at his words, he's always called me aussie girl. it makes my heart flutter with happiness. "thank you baby." i grab his face and give him a deep kiss, our lips lapping over each other but he pulls away. "did you just call me baby?" he has a hudge smile on his face.
"maybe i did? what are you gonna to about it mr fiennes tiffin."
"oh you will see tonight my love, now we better get inside before someone takes our table." he takes my hands in his and brings me inside, i get distracted while he talks to the waiter. classical music is playing and it's so relaxing. in the corner of the restaurant there's a guy playing a piano and a big water fountain. the waiter brings us to our table, there's a chandelier up top and a candle in the middle of the white clothed table. "can i start you guys off with any drinks? water, wine, soda?"
hero speaks for the both of us, "can we please have two glasses of red wine." this man, he knows red is my favorite.
"of course coming right up i'll be back with your drinks." the waitress leaves and i smile at hero.
"thank you so much for this, you have no idea how much this means to me hero."
"no need to thank me baby, i would do anything for you."

thankfully covid has settled down a bit, we both war mask into the restaurant and took them off once we sat down, and every time we kissed of course. half of the tables are empty so that people can spread out and stay six feet- which i'm thankful for because it's L.A, of course they don't have strict rules.

i am trying so hard to not lose my shit, the waiter keeps eyeing jo. yes we all know she's fucking hot, god she's hot, but no need to eye fuck another guys girl. the black thin straps on her dress show her collarbones easily, the dress fits her tits perfectly. i know she's catching me starring right now, but i could care less. the prick of a waiter finally gets over with our wine. another thing i love about this place is they don't ID, if they did we would be fucked, yet we don't even need to be drinking but everyone drinks at restaurants like this. plus i want it to be everything jo wants. he puts two huge wine glasses down and a big bottle of wine. i swear i catch him look at her tits. fucking prick. calm down hero, she's here on a date with YOU.
"have you guys decided on what you would like to eat?" i can tell jo is ready, she's had her menu down for 15 minutes and made sure it was okay what she ordered. stuff is expensive here but i would buy a mansion for this girl.
"can i please have the chicken alfredo." she says with a sweet smile.
"umm yeah i will have the steak." i don't bother to say please or thank you, that's what he gets for eye fucking my love.
"okay that should be ready in about 20 minutes." he says and leaves the table. jo reaches for my hand from across the table and takes it into hers, "are you okay? you look upset."
