Falling in love in the ER

5. Dinner

Grace
—————
Nick: dress nicely, I'm taking you somewhere nice, I'll see you at 7 darling😍😘

Fuck.

"COLIEEEEE"

I scream from my room, not even a second later she bust into my door yelling.

"WHAT WHATS WRONG!?"

I smile and say

"Nick is taking me somewhere nice I need help"

She glared at me and throws a pillow at my face while yelling at me.

"You little bitch I thought you were hurt!!"

I smile and laugh saying

"So you'll help?"

She grabs my arm and pulls me into her room while saying "of course I'm helping"

2 hours later
———————-
Colie put me in a beautiful lavender dress that she owned, she put me in white step heels and as soon as I was dressed I was dragged into the bathroom where she curled my hair and styled it into and updo, she then did a simple make up look and the whole look just came together perfectly and I couldn't wait to see Nick.

Nick
————

I put on nice pants and a white button up shirt, I look at Taylor who is helping me pick an outfit and say,

"Jacket or no jacket?"

Taylor looks at me and says

"Well it depends are you hoping to get laid tonight cause if so, no jacket! But the jacket could also work if she gets cold"

I look at him and say

"Jacket it is"

I took a deep breath and took one last look in the mirror before calling it good and driving to the address Grace texted me, I park in the parking lot and text Grace,

Nick: hey beautiful I'm here.

Grace: awesome I will be down in a second!

I step out of my car and lean against it while I wait for Grace to step out of the apartment. I hear the door open and I look up, Grace is walking towards me and I am absolutely stunned, she looks fantastic and I can't take my eyes off of her.

"What do I look okay?"

Grace asks while smiling at me

"You look phenomenal Grace!"

I say while walking towards her, I put a hand on her waist and the other on her face, I look her in the eyes and I am absolutely breathless. I lean in and kiss her, her hands go right into my hair and I lift her up and push her against my car while pulling her closer to me. It takes everything I have not to cancel dinner and take her up to her apartment so I pull away and say

"Grace if we don't go soon I'll have to cancel our reservations and take you up to your apartment!"

She giggles and says

"Okay okay fine, let's go."

I open Graces door for her and hop in the drivers seat and drive to the restaurant, I park in the parking lot of Nobel, Grace looks astounded and looks at me and says

"Nick are you sure, this place is expensive!"

I smile at her and and tell her

"Don't worry darling, I wanna make tonight special"

I step out of the car, and run to Graces door and open it up for her and grab her hand, I hold her hand all the way into the restaurant and say to the hostess "reservation for Galitzine."

The hostess looks at me starstruck and I panic for a second, I haven't told Grace yet and I was hoping it would be tonight but please god don't let this hostess ruin this for me, I give her the look of 'please don't freak out' and she catches on thank god and says

"Right this way!"

We sit down and I order us a bottle of wine while Grace looks at the menu, I look at her and decide now is the time

"Grace I need to tell you something that's really important"

I say and she looks up at me with her beautiful mesmerizing eyes and says

"Okay what's up hon?"

My heart jumps at the nickname, so I take a deep breath and say

"Im not just Nicholas, I'm the Nicholas Galitzine, I'm the guy from Purple Hearts, The guy from Cinderella, and I'm filming a movie called Red White and Royal Blue with my friend and costar Taylor Zakhar-Perez right now. I'm an actor and I'm so sorry for not telling you sooner but I wanted you to get to know me."

She looks at me astonished and speechless and my heart stops at the idea she might not want me anymore, then she looks at me and says

"I'm on a date with THE Nicholas Galitzine, one of the hottest British actors in the world. God I'm in nursing school I'm supposed to be smart!! Look I understand why you didn't tell me believe me I do, and it doesn't change how I feel about you. I really like you Nick, this isn't going to be easy but I wanna try if you do."

I breathed out the breath I had no idea I was holding and stand up and grab her face and kiss her, it wasn't full of lust but happiness, I pulled away and smiled saying

"Thank god, now let's order and eat"
