We made it to the restaurant. I got out, opened the door for her and we went in.
"You have reservations??" The man at the front asked
"Yes..." I said
"Can I get the name??" He asked
"Alexander King..." I said
"You are that fire photographer..." he said smiling
"That's me..." I said smiling
"You take fire picture and I can't wait until I need one. I'm definitely calling you..." he said
"Well just book and I gotchu..." I said
"Well I see your name, so y'all can follow me..." he said grabbing our menus and took us to our table
We sat down and he told us a waiter will be with us shortly.
"So, they know you as Alexander King here..." Delilah said smiling at me
"Yes..." I said smiling
"How you come up with that??" She asked
"I didn't want to use Cleo. So I was just going to use Alexander and that's it. Then later that day, I was think about you then I started fucking around and just writing our names down, I put my name with your last name and I like how Alexander King sounded so I used that..." I said
"So, If we were to ever get married you want my last name??" Delilah asked
"What you mean IF. You are marrying me whether you like it or not..." I said making her laugh
"Oh, so you gone make me??" She said with a smile and a raised eyebrow
"I was thinking more of a spell..." I said as we laughing
"Well you don't have to put a spell on me baby..." she said smiling at me
The waiter came and took our drink orders. We got frozen margaritas. We actually ordered 2 a piece. They brung our first drinks, we took a sip, looked at each other and nodded. We started talking about everything. The waiter came to take our food orders. She took our food orders, got our menus and left.
"I missed you..." I said grabbing her hand
She looked at me and smiled.
"I missed you too. The kids also misses you..." she said looking at me
"I promise I'll come see them..." I said looking at her
"Okay..." she said smiling
I removed my hand out of hers, put it under the table and started rubbing her legs. She picked up her drink and I slid my hand further up her inner thigh. She looked at me and sat her drink down.
"What are you doing??" She asked
"I wanna touch you..." I said moving my hand further
"Cleo..." she said softly grabbing my hand
She interlocked her fingers with mine and looked at me.
"Behave..." she said looking at me
"Okay..." I said softly
We started back talking and having a good ass conversation. Our food got brung out and we started eating. Food was good as hell. They brung out our last drinks.
"You drew some more drawings??" I asked her
"I actually have and I'm working on a portrait of the boys..." she said
