*Christina's POV*
I can feel Allie gently grab my hand in the back of the Uber, whilst making our way over to her surprise. I look round and stare at her for a minute. She doesn't know I'm staring but I just can't help it. I'm so proud of her. The way she handles herself in every situation. She's older than her age in a lot of ways. She's going to go far in this world. The way she came straight to me and told me everything that happened earlier, even though, she knew I wouldn't handle it well. I never got that from Tate, she lied about everything and anything. She was sly and hid everything from me. Allie gets straight the point. She's upfront and says it how it is. I really like that about her.
I still can't believe what Tate and Cayleigh did to her. It's going to take everything in me not to rip their heads off but deep down, I know Allie is right. I need to keep my calm, we can't make it obvious that Allie and I are involved. I can't loose her either. She makes me so happy. I've never felt this way for anyone especially someone I have only known for a short moment of time. It scares me sometimes thinking about strong my feelings are for Allie.
We pull up outside of the building. I booked us a table at the cities most popular roof top restaurant and bar. There's perks of being friends with the owners girlfriend. It has the most amazing view. It's the best in the city. When we were out with my friends the other night, I remembered Allie saying her favourite thing is looking out at a cities skyline at night so I thought this was the perfect spot to bring her. Even though I had in the back of my mind that someone could still be following us, I really didn't care. I just wanted a night out with her.
We both climbed out Uber. Allie lifted her head up and stared up at the high building.
"Where are we?" She asked.
"Close your eyes." I said turning her around so her back was against my front. I opened my bag and pulled out a blind fold. I gently positioned it over her eyes making Allie gasp a little. I tied it in the back and spun her back around again.
"Can you see me?" I asked her.
"Wow, I didn't know tonight was going to involve this sort of thing Miss Powers, we could have stayed at yours ya know but no, I can't see you." She laughed.
"The night is only young yet Miss Lawes. We have all night and I have a lot of stamina. Come with me, I'll guide you. Just trust me." I said grabbing her hands and pulling her to the elevator. I got Allie in and pushed the button for the rooftop.
"Are you going to kidnap me, should I worried?" Allie said, her voice laced with half worry and half joke.
"Miss Lawes, I'm not going to reveal my secrets." I said confidently.
"Oh" she said. I could see her chest rise and fall a little faster than normal. She's nervous.
The elevator *dinged* and the door opened.
"Come on, we are here." I grabbed her shoulders and gently guided her over to our table. I already phoned ahead to the restaurant and told them my plans and not to approach us until I have taken her blindfold off.
"Grab this metal bar." I told Allie. Curling her fingers around the metal bar right on the edge of the rooftop.
The view was something out the world. The glow of windows in the high rise buildings in the distance contrasted against the dark autumnal sky made it look a painting. I could hear the faint sound of cars beeping on the roads that were a long way down beneath us. The people looked like ants as we were so high up. The night air felt cold and crisp against my face. A gentle breeze wrapped around our bodies. The stars shone so brightly, they were so clear, they looked like diamonds twinkling in the sky. I felt like the world just paused and it was only Allie and I here.
