Permanent vacation

Chapter 22

"Are you ready?" Michael said opening the door.
"Sure." I said following him out.
We walked hand in hand out the venue and over to a small but really fancy restaurant.
"Do you have a reservation?" The person at the door asked.
"Yeah, for Michael clifford?"
"Right this way sir." he said guiding us to a two seater table with candles.
Michael pulled my chair out for me.
"Thank you kind sir." I said sitting down.
"Your very welcome my lady." he giggled sitting opposite me.
"Here are your menus." the waiter said handing us the menu.

I waited until the waiter had gone before looking at the menu.
"Holy cow, michael I'm not eating here." I whispered.
"Why, we can go to a better one if you want?" He said looking concerned
"No, it too expensive, i would be happy with a happy meal from Mc Donald's."
"You had me worried then, just pick what you want and let me handle the rest babe." he lightly giggled.
"Ok." I mumbled.
"So have you chosen anything yet?"
"Maybe just a chicken salad." I said putting the me the down.
"Stop picking the cheapest things on here," he said laughing.
"Ok, but I'll pay you back. can I have that." I said pointing to the menu.
"Anything for my princess." he said calling over the waiter.
We ordered our food and waited for it to be cooked.
"So are you excited about next month?"he said sipping his drink he ordered before.
"Totally, iv never been to Mexico or Japan so I'm really excited." I said smiling.
"Why is Luke and Alex here?" Michael said looking past me.
"Well, Luke could of asked Alex on a date?" I said looking behind me.
"Maybe? We aren't really dressed for fancy restaurants." he giggled looking at out shirts.
"True," I giggled.
Alex and Luke had a table next to us but didn't realise we were there, we were going to see how long it would take them to notice.

Soon our food came, mine looked so yummy I was practically drooling over it. I got spaghetti with a lovely tomato sauce.
Michael got a chicken with a sauce, chips and salad which looked amazing.
We both started eating our food.
I knew I shouldn't of ordered spaghetti when I can't eat it without making noises. I tried my hardest to be quiet but when you have spaghetti hanging from your lips it's hard not to slurp it up.
Eventually I ate the whole thing without making gross noises. Alex and Luke still didn't notice us.
"Are you ready to leave?" Michael said winking.
"Sure." I smiled.
"I'll just pay for the bill." he said walking over to the front desk. Slowly followed him out the doors and down the street.
"Where to know?" I said looking in all the shop windows.
"Arcade" he said pulling me in.
We walked around looking at the games.
"We have got to be the oldest people here." I giggled.
"Maybe we are." he said pulling me over to a bike racing game.
i sat on the bike as Michael put the money in and sat on the bike next to me.
"3...2...1...GO!" Michael yelled.
We leaned sided to side until we finished at the finish line, obviously Michael won.
"Ha I won!" He shouted.
"Bet you I'll beat you on this!" I said running over to the dance thing.
"What even is this?" He said standing on his side of the light up floor.
"It's a dancing game, just copy what the cartoon people are doing on the screen."
"Ok" he said shaking his head.
He started the game and we were both doing really bad. kids crowded around cheering Michael and videoing us.
Michael won at the game again.
Girls asking Michael for another go and pictures.
"I bet I can get you that pony" he said walking over to the "grabber" machine and inserting the coin.
I stood and watched as he lined the claw perfectly with the neck of the pony.
The claw had a tight grip of the pony, Michael was jumping up and down as it slowly pulled it to the shoot.
"YESSS!" He shouted as he grabbed the pony from the flap.
"Hear you go princess." he said giving me the "my little pony" teddy.
"Thanks babe." I said clutching it under my arm as we headed for the door.
