dinner date

(the picture is Delilah's dress!! The chapters will get longer soon I promise!)

                                         Delilah POV                   

It's been a few weeks since I've walked into the woods and ran into Alastor who's now a little different but he's still the same Alastor I fell hard for..

"Delilah dear?" A voice says bring me out of my thoughts. I looked over at Alastor who sat in his broadcast chair. 

"I have a question." He says softly as he gently takes my hand into his. "Would you like to go out for dinner?" He asked softly.

I blush brightly. "I'd love to." I spoke softly with a small grin. Alastor smiles and nods. "Lovely!" He yells happily as he stands up from his seat grabbing his mug of coffee. 

He takes a sip as he walks to the window looking outside. "My favorite time of the year." He says softly with a small hum. "The deer's even love fall." He spoke softly. 

"Falls my favorite time of the year as well." I spoke softly as I stood up from my seat making my way over to him before stopping as I saw today's newspaper on another table we had. 

I looked closely and saw an article about the New Orleans Louisiana killer. "I hope they find this sick fuck." I say under my breath. 

"Hm?" Alastor asked as he turned from the window to look at me. "Oh! Killer Louisiana?" Alastor asked as he walked closer to me. "You know. I heard so many stories about them.. oh how twisted his mind could be." Alastor says 

"Him? How do you know it's a guy?" I asked looking up at Alastor. 

"Oh.. will that's what I've been told anyways." He shrugs before taking my hand. "Besides darling you don't need to waste your time reading the newspaper when I can tell you most of it!" He says with a grin as he took the newspaper before looking me in the eyes. "How about you go home and I'll pick you up for dinner tonight?" He asked softly. 

I nodded slowly as I grabbed my coat walking out of the room...

                   _________Skip time________

I looked myself in the mirror looking at my outfit. My dress was beautiful. 

"I hope this isn't too much." I whispered to myself before grabbing my small purse. A few seconds later I walked to my door opening it to find Alastor standing there. 

"Hello Alastor." I spoke softly. 

"You look beautiful darling!" Alastor says as he looked me up and down for a second before looking back up at me in my eyes. "ready?" He asked.

"Thanks Al." I whispered softly before looking him in the eyes. "I'm not over dressed for dinner yet am I?" I asked softly. 

"Nonsense!" He chuckles softly. "You're dressed perfectly." He spoke softly as he took my hand. He leads us out to his car. He opens the passenger door and smiles softly at me. "My lady." He spoke softly making me blush.

"Why thank you!" I say as I get in the car buckling up. Alastor walked around the car before getting in buckling up. 

He then starts the car and begins to drive us to the restaurant humming softly to the song that's playing.. 

After about thirty minutes he pulls up to a fancy restaurant. "Here we are my dear!" Alastor says with a grin.

I looked over at him in disbelief. "Alastor you can't honestly afford this!" 

He chuckles softly as he nods. "Why of course I can!, only the best for a beautiful woman like yourself!" He says before covering his mouth. He blushed brightly as he looked away shyly.

I blush brightly before looking away as well. "You think I'm beautiful?" 

"Yeah." Alastor says softly as he opens the driver side door. He steps out of the car walking around to my door. He opens my door helping me out. 

"Thank you." I say softly as I step out of the car. Alastor smiled and he held my hand walking inside the building. 

"Table for two." Alastor says to the reservationist. He nods before calling over a waitress. 

"Right this way." She says softly as she leads us to a table. After she took us to a table she sat down two menus. "My name is Sarah and I'll be your waitress for tonight." She says as we sat down at the table. "Could I start you two out by drinks?" She asked with a grin. 

"I'll have a glass of sweet tea." Alastor and I both say at the same time. 

Sarah nods before walking off to grab the drinks. I looked at Alastor and chuckled softly. "Bet that couldn't happen again."

"Oh I'm sure it could." He chuckles before letting out a small sight. "So Delilah I wanted to ask you something." He spoke softly. 

"Yeah?" I asked before sarah walked over with our drinks. 

"You two know what you want for dinner?" She asked as she had her pen and pad out. 

"Oh!" Alastor says before picking up the menu looking through it. 

I pick up the other menu looking through. "I'll have the medium rare steak with a baked potato and veggies." I spoke up with a small grin as Sarah wrote it down. "Got it. And for you sir?" 

"You know what? I think I'll have the same. But have mine a little more pink please." Alastor says as he puts his menu down. 

Sarah smiles and nods before walking away. I looked over at Alastor and cleared my throat. 

"What?" He asked looking confused.

"Do you wanna continue with what you were gonna say before she came back to the table?" I asked softly as I noticed he blushed shyly. 

"Oh." He says scratching the back of his neck. "It could wait till after dinner." He says softly with a small smile. 

"Alrighty." I say softly before sipping on my tea. 

        _____Skip Time after they eat________

After we finished eating we left the restaurant after he paid of course.

"So want to tell me now? Al." I asked as we walked to his car. 

Alastor chuckles softly before leaning up against his car. "wow you really wanna know huh?" He chuckles before letting out a sigh. "I um." He stopped as he softly grabbed my hand. "I like you Delilah." He says softly. "Would you like to be my girlfriend?" He asked softly

I blush brightly. "Of course." I say softly before he kisses my cheek. "Thanks." He whispers softly as he looks me in the eyes.

"For what?" I asked softly.

"For being different then any other girl." He says softly as he held my hand...

After a few more minutes of just standing there holding each other's hands we decided on taking myself back home for the night....
