~Sorry for the long break guys 😅~

(Victory's POV)
I looked in the mirror and gasped. This was new. I looked...amazing. The girls did a wonderful job on my makeup. I couldn't tell it was me in the mirrors reflection.

"Ready Cousy?" Dimond smiled.

"As ready as I'll ever be. Just let me grab my sword." I reached for it and she smacked my hand. "No need for it."

I huffed and when they looked away I slipped a knife in my back pocket.

The door bell rung and I knew that it was time. "Bye guys! I love you!"

Knight, Dimond, and Slushy all waved from the living room. I quickly fixed my hair and put a fake smile on my face. At the door there was a shocking site that I couldn't comprehend.

"Duke?" I stood there flabbergasted. In the doorway stood Duke in a black tux, his hair was nicely combed and he had a bouquet of white roses with red tips. He looked me up and down.

"Darn it he's hot..." I thought to myself.

"You aren't wearing very um...appropriate clothes Victory." His cheeks slightly flushed with a light pink. He cleared his throat. "Good thing I brought you a change of clothes. You can change when we get there." I grabbed the flowers from him and he held out his hand. "Come on I don't bite." He smirked playfully.

Chuckling nervously, I gingerly grabbed his hand. He gripped my hand tightly and lead me down my sidewalk away from the safe house. His car was a fairly new black 2016 Nissan 370Z.

"Watch your head Firecracker." He opened the passenger side door and helped me into the seat. He shut the door and got in on the drivers side. "Hungry?" His eyes glistened happily. I nodded and he started the car.

(Duke's POV)

I am nervous. This isn't normally how I am, she just looked amazing. I mean it was slightly revealing but she pulled it off without looking trashy. I have a surprise for her I just hope she likes it.

I started the car and started to drive.

'Don't be tense Duke. You'll screw everything up. The plan and everything.'

Great... The Voices were here to torment me.

I looked over at Victory and smiled. "What?" She looked at me confused. "You're nervous Firecracker. Don't be. I'm not going to hurt you." I looked back at the road.

About twenty minutes later we pulled up to the restaurant 'Sky Room'. I looked at Victory and she seemed impressed. "I have a surprise for you in the back seat." I pointed to the wrapped box in the back. "T-thanks Duke." Her face turned a bright red and I chuckled. "No problem Vic. After you open it we'll go inside and you can change in the restroom."
