"Good morning Doctor Bailey." Ben greeted with a smile. He was on cloud 9 since last night.
"Good morning Doctor Warren." Miranda said shyly but much more confident than yesterday or any other day. It was easier to talk to him now that she knew he liked her as well. She didn't miss any of his stumbles last night either. It made her feel good that they were almost in the same boat.
" I made our reservations to the Capital Grill at 8pm. Is that okay?"
"That's great." She responded.
"And of course I know that you could possibly have a surgery tonight, let me know and I will cancel those and I'll just join you in surgery and maybe we can grab a late night snack from the cafeteria. I'm down for both options." He told her seriously.
Miranda gushed on the inside. This man would spend the night in the OR. Just to be around her. It was flattering and so sweet.
"I will let you know." She returned looking at him with a smile. Ben reached out and grabbed her notepad from the pocket of her white coat.
"What?" Miranda asked confused and watched as he wrote down his number.
He also wrote down the address to the restaurant. "Here is my number. I figured you probably wouldn't want me to pick you up on our first date."
"Thank you. See you tonight." She blushed putting her notepad in her pocket as she walked away.
"See you tonight." He replied watching her walk down the hall.
"So you guys are going out to dinner tonight?" Arizona asked catching up with her.
"Yeah." Miranda responded.
"Where at?"
"The Capital Grill."
"Ohhh that's nice and very expensive. He's going all out. "
"How nice?" Miranda asked now her head was storming on what to even wear.
"It's a very nice upscale romantic atmosphere steak house. Most appetizer start at 30 dollars and the main course starts a 60."
"Not the food, the dress code."
"Oh yeah its business and or business casual. You can't go wrong with a dress and a nice heel or a skirt and dress pants with a cute top."
Miranda nodded thinking. "Oh this is ridiculous."
"What?"
"Me actual sitting here thinking of outfits for a date."
"This is good and I believe you will have fun. Just relax and let him do the talking. He will make it comfortable for you." Arizona encouraged before walking away.
She went through the whole day glad that there wasn't anymore surgeries for her. She text Ben to let him know that plan A was still in affect and she got off at 6, rushed home to take a bath.
After her shower, she lotion down and put on her bra and panties before searching through her closet for something to put on. After many no's Miranda found a black velvet long sleeved dress. It was fitting but not over doing it and it showed a little cleavage.
She found her black peep toe booties with a heel and she laid them out.
Miranda slid the dress on before walking to her mirror to curl her hair. After doing so she applied her make up, going with a warm burgundy lip.
She slid her shoes on and looked at her appearance one more time. She was really doing this.
Miranda left out of the house and looked at the time. She had 30 minutes to get down town which was perfect.
