Friends & Paradise

Chapter 27 - A Dinner In The Stars (Natasha's POV)

"Tell me again, what happened after you kissed him?" I asked Danielle as we sat in the couch of the living room in our suite. Danielle was telling us all about what happened at her encounter with Ralph.

"Well, after we kissed, Cindy, that's the blond girl's name, saw us and she basically stormed on Ralph. Then, the two of us laughed at her and we kissed again. I think I really like him again." Danielle said.

"Are you going to see him soon?" Amelia asked.

"I think we might go out tomorrow night. I think he said there was this firework show down at Paradise Lagoon."

"Wait, there's a firework show tomorrow?" I asked.

"Yeah. He said it's one of the best during this season." Danielle said.

"So awesome!" I said.

"Maybe you guys can bring your guys, that way I'll still have you if I need advice or something."

"Sure, I'll ask Jason tonight at dinner."

"Well, you two have dates, while i have a friend-date." Amelia said.

"Are you positively sure that you don't like Aaron?" Danielle asked.

"He's cute, yeah. But, I don't go for looks."

"We know; you go for personality."

"I'm a smart girl, I don't want to end up with a total jackass just because he's cute. That's just a waste of my time and my precious youth."

"It is." I said. "But, if you knew him a little better, would you date him?"

"I'll see where the tides take this." Amelia said. Obviously talking about Aaron.

It was already five in the afternoon, and we were sitting in the living room. Then, I stood up from the couch, and stretched myself.

"Well, ladies, I have to get ready for my date, and then I'll meet the parents." I said.

"Okay." They both said, and then sat back down in the couch while talking about what happened this afternoon.

As usual, I walked inside my bathroom and took a shower. Then, I left my shower and put on the navy blue dress I bought yesterday, obviously with underwear and a starpless bra underneath the dress, and my black stilettos. Then, I walked to the bathroom and did my hair by doing my best attempt at blow-drying it. Luckily, it looked good. So then, I put on light make-up, and then I left my bedroom.

"Okay, guys. I'm leaving now to have dinner with Jason, and then meeting the parents. Wish me luck!" I said.

"Good luck!" Danielle said.

"Just be yourself, I am sure they'll love you." Amelia assured me.

"Okay. Thanks." I said.

I opened the suite door, and then walked outside into the hallway. I walked down the hallway, and inside the elevator. Once inside, I pressed the button to go down to the lobby, and then the elevator lowered to the level I wanted to go. When the doors opened, I stepped inside the lobby and then walked over to where the restaurant's entrance was in.

In the front desk of the restaurant, a man was sitting there looking at the guestbook. I walked to him and then I said,

"Excuse me, I'm looking for someone here."

"Aren't we all, dear?" He said.

"No, but, he is here. He said he's meeting me here."

"Okay, what's his name?"
