"Did I forget to mention you look absolutely beautiful" Cristiano complemented from where he sat in the driving seat of his car.

"No you didn't. Actually I think that's like the 5th time you mentioned something of the sort" Catalina smiled at him from where she sat in one of his fancy sports car which she sure she had a similar model of back in Argentina.

Prior to picking up the Argentinian, Cristiano was a nervous wreck as it's been awhile since he's been on a 'date'. His confidence was slowly returning with the more time they spent around each other as it made them both more comfortable. Picking up someone from their house with security surrounding it who quite literally looked like they wanted to kill him was not the most welcoming meeting. Although if you were to ask Catalina he was over exaggerating as her guards who watched over her private community were practically teddy bears.

"Well a women's beauty is always shocking, especially one such as yours" he smiled to himself as he noticed the light dust of red cross her cheeks.

"Well thank you but I'm more intrigued on where your taking me" she changed the subject not liking being the flustered one between the two for once.

"I was thinking maybe a nice dinner at one of my favorite restaurants and then maybe a walk around town or something" his hand inched closer to hers but she paid no mind to it as instead she focused on the passing lights.

"Well good thing I didn't wear a dress" she laughed at her own little joke along with him as it was a little bit windy outside which would've caused her dress to ride up.

"Great minds just know when things are going to happen" he stated as his hand gradually landed on her leg which she took a quick look at before distracting herself.

"I guess so"

"Wait I've been to this restaurant before" taking a quick glance at the fancy establishment she realized it as the one where she had Neymar's birthday lunch at.

"I'm hoping you liked it or else this will be awkward" he stressed out getting ready to leave to another restaurant.

"I actually enjoyed it and the service was amazing" she recalled having booked a private table in the back so no one would disturb them.

"That's one of the main reasons I chose it so you and I can have some privacy without people watching our every move like we're some fascinating zoo exhibit" pulling up to the front of the restaurant he handed his keys to the valet boy and did a quick walk to open the door for Catalina.

"What a gentleman" she teased.

"Only for you" returning the banter he offered his arm for her which she did end up taking.

"Cristiano my boy" the owner of the restaurant acknowledged the man almost as if they were friends which Catalina assumed they were by the greeting. The two made quick talk amongst themselves before she was introduced
