A/N
I hope you like this picture of Thomas! Personally, I think this guy is hot but still, I hope it hasn't ruined any of your expectations for what Thomas looks like. Hope you enjoy this chapter!

* Alice's POV *

"Come on, I want to take you out."

Thomas took my hand and led us back to the car.

"...on a date?"

"Absolutely."

"Where to?"

"A restaurant downtown."

"Mmmmm I am hungry. What type of restaurant is it? Do I need to dress up?"

"Alice, I wouldn't care if you went out with me in a track suit and trainers."

"Oh come on, that wouldn't bother you at all?"

"Nope."

He emphasised the 'p' on nope.

"Whatever."

"You don't believe me?"

"Nah."

"Oh why do I bother..."

We laughed and then turned the music on so we could sing along like earlier.

"Right, I'll drop you off home and then I'll go back to mine so we can both change, then I'll pick you up at 8 o'clock, is that okay?"

"Yup, that's good with me."

Thomas dropped me off home and left with a quick peck on the lips. I glided up the stairs with a smile so big that it started to hurt.

Hmmmmmmm...what to wear...

I picked out a little black dress and heels. I decided to curl my hair and do my makeup more dramatic. A toot came from outside so I looked out the window and saw Thomas dressed very smart yet totally hot at the same time. My heart started almost jumping out of my chest as I walked out to the car.

When Thomas saw me, he started smiling, got out of the car, and opened the door for me.

"Hey Thomas."

"Hey beautiful."

Did I just swoon...wow.

We drove in a comfortable silence to a cute little restaurant. When we stepped inside, there was an extravagant chandelier, candles lit on the tables, and some parts of the walls were covered in roses and ivy. We were taken to a private table, Thomas had obviously booked it, by a female waitress that couldn't take her eyes off of my Thomas.

Wait...did I just say my? As in my property. Hm, I kinda like it. I liked to think that Thomas was mine and I was his, no one else's, that I could have him all to myself. Yeh I know, I'm greedy.

Once we sat down, the waitress leaned over the table to arrange our cutlery but I could see what she was trying to do. Like seriously? She must've been desperate enough that she needed to show off her now exposed chest, but still, I couldn't blame her when it came to Thomas... I mean, come on, he looked like a Greek god chiselled from stone sitting opposite me so of course she was going to try and grab is attention any way possible.

After placing our orders, the waitress finally left us alone and our food had arrived, I noticed that Thomas didn't take any interest in all of the females that we're starting to surround him like flies. Instead, he kept his soft eyes on me.

"Have you seriously not noticed?"

"Noticed what?"

"All of the women hanging around you like their lives depend on it?"
