Alex looks at him

Alex: What?

Dexter: Just thinking of how beautiful you look

She smiles shyly

Dexter: I mean it

Alex: Thanks

Dexter: Anytime precious

She blushes

Dexter: So it's just you and your dad?

Alex: Yeah...my mom left when I was little but it's whatever. As long as I have my dad I'm good. One parent better than none

Dexter: I'm sorry. Sasha and I are adopted. We've never met our real parents but our adopted ones we love them so much. We just accept them as our parents

Alex: I'm sorry

Dexter: It's alright

He starts eating. Alex watches him and smiles. He looks at her and smiles

Dexter: What?

Alex: Nothing, just can't believe I'm in a diner eating dinner with a good looking guy

He smiles big

Dexter: Well this is how dates are

He laughs. Alex blushes

Alex: So it is a date? I've never been on one

Dexter: First the scooter; now a date?

Alex: Not really an adventurous person

Dexter: Really? Guess tonight's going to be one for you

Alex: Can't wait

She starts eating

At the house...

Alex's dad goes in the house covered in blood. He goes to the bathroom and takes a shower. He thinks about what he did then rests his head on the wall letting the water hit him. A couple of minutes later he wraps the towel around himself and goes to his room to change

Dexter: One of the reasons I stood up to Zack was because... Well I've always had feelings for you

Alex: Really?

Dexter: Yeah

He stands in front of her. He grabs her hands

Dexter: I'm glad I did because then we wouldn't be here together right now

She looks at him. He leans in and kisses her. She wraps her arms around his neck and kisses back

*RING RING*

They stop. Dexter looks at his phone

Dexter: It's my mom

Alex smiles

Alex: Go ahead

He answers it as Alex goes to the rail of the deck and stares at the lake

Dexter: I know I have school tomorrow....ugh fine

He hangs up. Alex looks at him

Alex: They want you home?

Dexter: Yeah... I'm sorry

Alex: It's ok. We'll see each other tomorrow at school

He smiles and kisses her

Dexter: Well let's take you home then

She grabs his hand as they go to his scooter and take off

At the house...

They arrive as Alex gets off. Her dad looks through the window

Alex: I had an awesome first date, thanks Dexter

Dexter: Anything for you beautiful

She smiles and kisses him

Alex: Goodnight

Dexter: Night

He takes off. Alex goes inside the house. She passes by the room her dad's in

Dad: Alex

She walks back and looks at him. He waves her over

Dad: Come here

She walks over

Alex: You saw; didn't you?

Dad: Kiss on a first date? Come on Alex you're suppose to wait

Alex: I know I'm sorry. I really like him and he kissed first

Dad: This is exactly what happened with Rocky. I don't want you to go  down that same road with this boy

Alex: I know dad. I'm going to be careful ok

He nods

Alex: Oh by the way there's this fundraiser this weekend that I want to go to; do you want to come?

Dad: Fundraiser? Since when did you want to do that?

Alex: That club I've been going to

Dad: You still haven't told me what that club is

Alex: Hold on

She goes to her room, grabs the flyer, and shows it to him

Dad: Help stop bullying

He looks at her then gets up and hugs her

Alex: Dad?

Dad: Just give me a minute

He hugs her tightly

Dad: I'm happy you're doing this

She smiles

Alex: There are others like me, did what I did. I want to help them go through this

He kisses her head

Dad: My little girl

Alex: Dad It's ok

Dad: I know I just keep thinking of you in the hospital

She tears up and hugs him tighter

Alex: I won't put you through that again

Dad: I hope not

He looks at her and smiles

Dad: I'm sorry but I have stuff to do this weekend so I won't be able to go

Alex: It's ok dad I understand

Dad: You know I would to support you?

She smiles and nods

Alex: Well I'm going to go to bed now. Goodnight dad

Dad: Night sweetheart

He kisses her head again. She goes to her room. He just sits back down
