Gene's POV

"Hey! Gene! Come on just reply me, you obviously can hear me!" He shouted.

"What do you want from me?" I raged.

"I just want to send you home! Can I?" He said.

"No, Jorden just go home." I said staring at him.

"Why n...."

"I don't like you, don't like your name, don't like EVERYTHING about you, not even one bit! Get lost!" I interrupted him, before he could even complete his sentence.

"What kind of name do you like?" He asked sadly.

"Caleb, okay? I like guys with the name Caleb. What a weird question."

Cara's POV

I nodded, "Okay I believe you. Well, can we go eat now? Im very very hungry." I said pointing to my stomach.

"Sure, Sure, lets go." He said while pinching my cheeks playfully. I took a step away from him and started walking.

After a short while, I noticed he wasn't following. "Yo, Waters. You....." he ran beside me and grabbed my hand, "I'll lead you to the resturant." He said. I walked beside him awkwardly, while he was using his phone in the other hand.

It felt like forever before he said "We reached." He led me towards the counter, the waiter asked for Caleb's name. "Caleb Waters." "Sorry Sir, full name please." Caleb stared at him for awhile and nodded, "Caleb Jorden Waters." "Oh you reserved a table for two? Near the window?" The waiter said. He nodded. The waiter pointed to a small corner near the window, Caleb pulled me gently to our table.

A waitress came to give us the menu, when I asked Caleb, "Table for two? What about the rest?"

A smile spread across his face, " Guess you catched up, I wanted to have a date with you, I didnt know how to ask and this happened."

"Wow, okay." I said as my cheeks turned slightly red. "But seriously, Caleb Jorden Waters? Jorden."

"I really appreciate people calling me by the name of Caleb and not Jorden." He said as he looked through the menu, "do you mind, if I ordered for you?"

I shook my head, why was he so pissed off?

"Um, two beef steak with soup of the day please." He said calmly to the waitress. "Two glasses of wine as well. Thats all for now." The waitress nodded and walked away with our orders.

I sat there silently and waited for the food. We started eating once the food arrived and left once we finished it. After that we just went back to the hotel. I got a new room which is right beside Caleb's.

I was right about to enter the room when Caleb said, "Sorry that I was abit harsh just now, I just dont like people calling me by Jorden. Well I really enjoyed this date eventhough we did not talk much. But this moment will the best thing of the whole date. Will you be my girlfriend? I know its fast but i got a good feeling about this."

I smiled and nodded. He cheered so loud that I covered his mouth using both of my hands. " It's already late waters, don't cheer like that." He lifted my hand off his mouth and held it thightly. "Okay, my lady." I giggled at the way he said that, he took my hand back up to his lips and gave it a small kiss. "Go on in, rest well, today must be a long day for you. See you tomorrow." He said. He let go of my hand and I went in my hotel room.
