Can't Have It

Chapter 21

Olivia's POV
"Okay first question..." Brad had started his questioning as he wanted to fit in as many as possible. He could ask me any until our food came.

"All time favorite song?"

"Ooo easy. Dreams by Fleetwood Mac! I know it's basic but Stevie Nicks is my weakness." I say laughing.

"No I love that song as well.... Okay anyways, What's your ideal vacation?"

"Paris! Dining on the Eiffel Tower at 10 o'clock while the lights go off, eating baguettes at the park, shopping all day long! "

"Who would you go with?Skye?"

"Mmm it is the city of love so I want my first time to be with a guy I'm in a serious relationship with, it's so cheesy but... "

"Nah that's cute"

I smile at his listening skills and how he seems genuinely interested in what I'm saying. He goes on with another question.

" If you didn't have to worry about the salary, what would be your dream job?"

"Model!" I say smiling. Just last year I went to an open model casting at Brandy Melville and got to do a shoot with them but haven't heard from the store since then. The experience was amazing and I can see myself doing that seriously.

"Worst fears."

"Oh god, roller coasters and bugs."

"I don't fancy roller coasters much either. Favorite movie?"

"Devil Wears Prada!" He laughs at this, clearly picking up on my girly side.

"Do you play any instruments?"

"I played the alto saxophone for five years but I quit freshmen year."

"Which instrument do you want to play?"

"Piano" I say sighing.

"Favorite thing to do?"

"Watch ballets!", every year I go to watch Swan Lake, Giselle, Firebird, and The Nutcracker at the nearest theater.

"Favorite food?"

"Thai."

"Play any sports?"

"Surfing, tennis, golf"

"Favorite subject?"

"Math." At that he cringes and I laugh at his remark.

"Favorite color?"

"Pink and black"

"Favorite band?"

"Fleetwood Mac or The Beatles, I'm well aware I'm very basic by the way."

"What languages do you speak?"

"English, Spanish, Italian, and sarcasm" I say seriously and he laughs. I see the waiter getting closer and I know he only had time for about three more questions so he better make them good.

"If you could meet any celebrity?"
"Rhianna"

"What turns you on in a guy?"

"Men in suits." I say sheepishly. At this he smiles and asks me his final question.

"You're favorite thing about me?"

"You're curls!" I say in the voice of an overexcited fangirl voice.

"Gnocchi soup for the lady and cheese on your salad?" The waiter asks me whilst setting my plate down in front of me.

"I'm fine, thank you."

"Alrighty and we have a chicken artichoke pasta" he sets the food down for Brad and asks for cheese to which Brad replies yes. Once he's left, I grab my napkin and put it on my thighs then pick up a spoon to begin eating when I notice Brad hasn't moved and is just smiling at me. On one hand, it's creepy,on the smarter hand, he's hot. I choose to listen to the smarter side and smile back.

"Don't stare at me, eat your food. " I pout teasingly and he turns his attention to his pasta still grinning. At last I dig into the soup and salad and its honestly so amazing. The creaminess of the soup and the texture of the Gnocchi go so well. My love for food thoughts are interrupted when I realize how much this is going to cost Brad. It's only a second date and we're not even boyfriend and girlfriend so I feel really bad about letting him pay for this.

"Um, I need to use to the restroom, I'll be back in a bit."

Brad nods, acknowledging my previous statement and I walk away from the table. Instead of turning to the restrooms, I walk over to front desk where the hostess is greeting someone. Behind her, is our waiter filling up a pint of water for our table, I assume.

"Hi, excuse me!" I call at the waiter.

"Hello" he smiles.

"I'd like to put the bill for table 14 on my card if you don't mind."

"Sure thing!" he says as I hand him my Visa. "I'll send it back to you're table when the transaction is compete."

"Thank you."

I walk back to the table grinning and take a seat across from Brad once again.
