Ashton checked himself in the mirror again. He wasn't so sure about the outfit but Luke assured him it was what he needed to wear. He was in a pair of slacks and had a black button down with tiny white hearts all over it.

"Trust me she'll love the shirt." Luke snapped walking back into the dressing room holding the black and white shoes from the night before.

"Thanks." Ashton sighed taking the shoes from Luke.

"You cannot tell her what you know, do you understand me? Luke spoke sternly.

"I know." Ashton nodded.

"I'll call you mid way because it's something she'll expect. Answer as you normally would." Luke spoke again.

"Okay." Ashton nodded again.

"You should be going. She hates when people are late." Luke said checking his watch.

"Anything specific you want me to find out?" Ashton asked as he grabbed his phone and wallet and shoved them into his pockets.

"Everything." Luke snapped.

Ashton didn't say anything as he made his way to the door.

"One more thing." Luke called.

Ashton turned around.

Luke snapped a picture with his phone.

"For the uh- business. You make a good advertisement." Luke cleared his throat as he shoved his phone back in his pocket.

Ashton pressed the number eleven on the elevator as the door closed. He shifted nervously. He only hoped he could play this off as well as Luke was expecting him to. As the elevator doors opened revealing Leliana in bright red spaghetti strap dress that reached mid-thigh. Her blonde hair in loose waves around her shoulders.

Ashton drug his eyes over the gorgeous blonde.

"You look stunning." Ashton smiled as Leliana got into the elevator.

"Thank you, I love this shirt." She gushed as she placed a kiss on Ashton's cheek.

"Thanks." Ashton shifted nervously.

"So where are we going?" Leliana asked.

"Well I was thinking we could go to The Pomegranate downtown?" Ashton asked trying to sound confident. The truth was he knew how out of his league Leliana was and it was intimidating as hell.

"Ooh, I love that place." Leliana grinned widely.

"Good." Ashton smiled as he lead her to the car Luke had demanded they take for the night.

"Oh, we have our own chauffeur do we?" Leliana chuckled.

"Of course, I don't drink and drive." Ashton winked as he held the door open for her.

Once they had arrived and were seated at the restaurant, Leliana turned to Ashton curiously.

"How did you get off work so early? Luke usually has you pretty busy I thought?"

"He thinks I'm getting things ready for our trip this weekend." Ashton lied taking a sip of his crown and coke.

"So you lied to your boss?" Leliana asked with a slight grin.

"Not exactly. I just finished earlier and he doesn't know it yet." Ashton lied again.

"What trip is it that you're getting ready for?" Leliana asked.

"Just a convention in Barbados this weekend." Ashton shrugged.

"Luke's going?" Leliana asked suddenly concerned.

"Yeah, why?" Ashton asked playing dumb.

"I'm gonna be there as well. Please tell me he's bringing you along?" Leliana grinned in a flirty manner.

"Unfortunately." Ashton shrugged.

"Great, I'd love to spend some time with my new boyfriend." Leliana gushed.

"W-what?" Ashton frowned.

"You aren't seeing anyone else are you?" Leliana asked suddenly offended.

"No, no, not at all, I just didn't know that's where this was going." Ashton shifted again.

"Of course, I don't just date anyone." Leliana crossed her arms.

"I'm glad, that doesn't really help with the nerves but..." Ashton chuckled.

"You're nervous?" Leliana asked with a small smile.

"Of course I am. You're completely out of my league." Ashton snorted as he took another drink.

"You really think so?" Leliana asked with a slight frown.

"I think everyone in this room thinks that." Ashton laughed.

"I don't." Leliana said with a very serious look.

"You're sweet." Ashton shook his head.

"I'm serious. You're gorgeous. I'm lucky to be dating someone like you." Leliana smiled shyly.

"Well that's a boost to my ego if I've ever heard one." Ashton chuckled causing Leliana to giggle as well.

Luke paced his room. He was still in his suit. He wanted to know how things were going with Ashton and Leliana but he was worried it was too early to call. He checked his phone. Ashton had left about an hour and a half ago. He pulled up the picture he had taken of Ashton. He really looked like a model. Luke felt a small smile form on his lips. There was something about Ashton that brought a smile to Luke's face. He huffed and tossed his phone aside. He hated the way Ashton made him feel.
