The next few days were slow. I worked for what seemed like years. On Friday, I worked until 10. I could barely keep my eyes open.

I went straight to my bed. There was a package on it. I was a little scared until I saw Charlie's handwriting on it. I smiled. I had forgotten that he knew where I kept my house key.

"I saw this dress, and thought about how pretty you'd look in it. See you at 11:00."

I smiled huge. Wait what?!? 11:00? It was 10:15!!! I quickly opened the package. Inside was a beautiful, strapless, black dress. I put it on. It was so tight but it was comfy.

I quickly did my makeup. I curled my hair and pinned it to the side. By the time I was easy, it was 10:55.

I sighed with relief as I put on some bright red lipstick. I grabbed my small purse and went into the kitchen.

I was so tired. But I would never miss a date with Charlie.

He pulled in and got out of the car. He had his hair gelled back and was wearing a tux. He looked so good. He smiled that amazing smile when he saw me. He opened the car door for me.

I got in and he quickly got in too.

"You look beautiful" he said sweetly. I blushed. "You look great too..... Where are we going?"

He smiled," I know you've been working a lot lately. And I know you're tired. I wanted to spend a little time with you to get your mind off of everything".

I laughed. "I know you think it's pathetic that I work at Burger King."

"I think it's cute." He smiled, grabbing my hand.

I laughed. "Cute? How is having a crappy job cute?"

He shrugged.

I kissed his cheek leaving a big, red lipstick stain on it. I laughed.

I grabbed a napkin and wiped it off.

"You like the dress?" He asked.

"I love it. It's a little tight though."

He apologized. I chuckled. "You don't need to apologize. How were you suppose to know? And plus, I'm sure you don't mind".

He laughed and agreed. We talked for a while. We pulled in to a big, fancy restaurant.

"Oh great Charlie. I've never been to a fancy restaurant. This ought to be interesting".

He put his arm around me. We walked in.

He talked to the counter.... Person. I looked around. Everything was so nice. It must be nice being rich. Before I thought too much, I felt someone grab my hand.

He lead me to our table. They brought menus. I looked. "Charlie, I don't even know what most of this is."

He laughed. Eventually I just told him to get me what he'd think I'd like.

The food was great, but I didn't pay much attention. His face had me staring. Every time he'd smile, I'd get chills. And dang, he looked good in a tux.

One time, he caught me staring. "What?" He asked.

I looked down, embarrassed. "Nothing. I was just lost in thought I guess".

"What are you thinking about?"

I smiled. "Everything. But mostly about you".

He smiled back. "You know, Alli, I was thinking. I know I have to get back to LA".

I looked down," Yeah. I know".

"And I can't bear the thought of going back now."

I looked at him. "Alli, I want you to move to LA with me".

My jaw dropped. "Charlie, what?"

He laughed.

I stuttered," I... I don't even..."

He grabbed my hand.

"Charlie I couldn't. I couldn't leave everything behind."

He smiled," Especially not work".

I gave him a look, but couldn't help smiling.

"But Charlie, what about Gigi? I don't think I could leave her. I would miss her too much".

"Alli, she'd only be a few hours away. And besides, she's going on tour with Cody. You wouldn't see her much anyway".

Dang. He had a point.

"I don't know, Charlie. I love you but I don't know if I'd be able to. It seems so... Wrong".

He looked at me, searchingly.

We talked for a while. We eventually decide to continue our discussion in the car.

He paid and we left.

He held my door open for me again.

I got in the car and I was shivering. He handed me his jacket. I wanted to refuse but I was so cold.

He held me in his arms for a while.

I started crying. He kissed my cheek," What's wrong baby?"

"Charlie, you know I wouldn't be able to survive you leaving."

He held me close.

"Okay Charlie, I'll move to LA".
