California Dream

Chapter 38

We drive up to an extremely fancy restaurant in Beverly Hills at around 6:00.

"Did you make reservations for this place or something?" I ask.

"Yeah I made them this morning just incase."

Kian steps in front me and opens the door. "After you my dear," he says as he waves me through the door.

"Why thank you kind sir," I giggle.

Kian follows me through the door and we walk up to the hostess stand.

"Hi I have reservations for two," Kian says.

"And what's the last name?" the hostess asks.

"Lawley."

"Right this way." Kian grabs my hand and we walk behind the hostess to our table.

We take our seats in a small booth.

"Your waitress should be out in a minute," the hostess tells us just before leaving.

"Kian this place is so expensive. I've heard them talk about it on TV before as one of the nicest restaurants in Beverly Hills," I say.

"Don't worry about. I have the money it's fine. Order whatever you'd like."

"Are you sure?" I question.

"Yes I'm positive."

"Ok then," I say.

A tall blonde girl walks up to the table. "Hi I'm Rachel I'll be your waitress tonight," she says. "Can I get you anything to drink?"

"I'll just take a diet coke," I say.

"And for you?" she asks turning to Kian.

"A regular coke please," he says.

"Ok I'll be right back with those." She walks away and I turn back to Kian.

"Did you see that?" I ask him.

"See what?"

"She was checking you out," I say.

"She was not checking me out."

"Please Kian I'm a girl, I'm pretty sure I know how girls check guys out," I say.

"Well I hope you're a girl," he says with a laugh.

"Oh shut up," I say playfully.

"Don't let it get to you. I mean could you blame her I'm totally hot," he tells me jokingly as he bites his lip then runs a hand softly through his hair. I practically melt right there on the floor.

"Ok let's not do that anymore," I say to him.

"Why?" He asks as he does it again. At that point I know I'm staring but honestly I can't help it. "You know you like it," he says with his cute little laugh.

"Maybe," I say as I blush. He laughs again when he notices me blushing.

Our waitress returns. She hands us our drinks then says, "are you ready to order."

Kian glances at me to see if I am. "No not yet."

"Ok I'll be back in a bit take as long as you need," she says giving Kian a smile then turning away.

"She is totally checking you out," I say to him.

"It's fine Annie. I'm here with you. If she can't respect that, then that's her problem, don't let it get to you."

"Fine," I say looking down at my menu. I scan through the different items. I decide to order Rotini pasta with Italian sausage.

"Are we ready?" The waitress asks when she returns again. Kian glances at me.
