"Where are we going?" I asked Rick after a few minutes of silence in the car.

"Umm.. McDonald's." He replied.

Was he kidding? I would look like a joke going to McDonald's dressed like this.

"What?" I didn't want to be humiliated.

"McDonald's." He repeated.

What the fuck. Did Ari dress me up for McDonald's. I will kill her. I glanced at Rick sideways. His eyes were on the road and he looked pretty serious. I can't go to McDonald's like this. Never.

"What?" I probably sounded like an idiot.

Rick turned his face towards me and then said. "Do you have a hearing problem?"

"Umm no." I knew he would think that I was an idiot. I was sure that I looked horrified.

He burst out laughing. "You should've seen your face Lauren. I was kidding."

I breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god. I thought you were really planning on taking me to McDonald's in this." I pointed at my dress.

"I'm taking you to a restaurant I don't know the name of. It's one of those fancy restaurants with fancy names. I booked a table for us already." He smiled.

He was quiet charming. Though if someone asked me who was more good looking. Louis or Rick? I would definitely pick Louis. I was glad that he was acting like I was already a friend of his.

When we reached the restaurant and walked in Rick told the hostess his name and she led us to our table.

Once we were seated she asked what refreshments we would like.

"Water please." I answered her and Rick nodded indicating that he wanted the same thing.

When she left Rick said. "So Lauren. Ari has told me a lot about you. And I have to say. She was right. You're beautiful."

I smiled at him. Was he flirting though? "Thanks." I didn't compliment him because I didn't want to look like I was flirting.

"Has Ari told you about me?" He asked eagerly.

I didn't want to be rude but I couldn't lie to him. "Not really."

His smile dropped a little but then he recovered and said. "Well that's good. I can tell you about myself. Ask whatever you want to."

Truthfully I didn't feel like talking. I was already not in a good mood because of Louis and I was feeling really tired too.

Just then a waitress came up to us putting the bottles of water in front of us and handing us the menus. I looked at it and ordered the first thing without really paying attention. When she left with our orders Rick turned back to me.

"Soo? Do you want to ask anything?" He asked.

I looked into his eyes. They were blue. Piercing blue. Louis' eyes suddenly popped into my mind. They were much better than Rick's eyes. They are those sea green colour and sometimes appear to be blue. I could get lost in them forever and...

Stop Lauren. Stop thinking about Louis.

Rick coughed and I realized I had still been staring at him. I quickly averted my eyes away from him.

I had to stop comparing him to Louis.

"Sorry." I muttered.

"What were you thinking about?" He asked.
