Clara POV

We almost reach the restaurant when my phone vibrates and I turn down the radio and pick it up.

"Hey," I say realising it's my mama "where are you guys" she shouts without saying hi back to me "we're almost there don't worry," I say rolling my eyes at Ryder, even though he couldn't see me I'm pretty sure he knew.

"The drive is like 10 minutes, it's been 30 minutes what happened?" My mom questions over the phone and that's when my phone is ripped out of my hand by... Ryder.

"Well basically Ms Martinez, Clara over here told me the wrong directions which led to a longer route to the restaurant," he said turning into the car park of the restaurant.

"What a liar, he's lying mama that's not true," I say and snatch the phone out of his hand and telling my mum what happened and she laughed.

"Mama, it's not funny" I say and she laughs even more, "you need to hurry up now and stop arguing the pair of you, your meant to be looking after Jax, but here it looks like we should get you two a babysitter" my mother says and Jax at the back bursts out into laughter.

"I'm going to hang up now, we'll see you inside," I say and she replies "okay, bye" and we both hang up.

I step out of the car and straighten out my puffy dress, I look up and begin to observe the building. Before I was thinking what's so special about this place and I was astonished, I mean this place is amazing.

The amount of flashing lights it had was beautiful and contrasting the pitch blackness of the night. The building was covered in a cream colour and had detailed spiral pillars. The doors were massive and were covered in a chocolate brown colour with the centre, transparent filled with glass. At the top of the building the name "D'amour Rouge" was written in cursive letters.

"yeah, that is the name"I hear Ryder say, oh my gosh I said the name out loud. I cleared my throat and we all headed to the restaurant.

we saw our moms accompanied by the men who were their 'dates'. "hey" Jax says as he runs over to his mom, "hey darling, listen we need you two to sit on a different table since there's only one space" Mrs Rodriguez says as she points at me and Ryder.

"are you serious ma, why couldn't we just stay at home if there wasn't going to be space for the two of us, I mean what is the point of us being here" Ryder exclaims at his mom and she shoots us both an apologetic look.

I roll my eyes and sigh heavily like you have got to be kidding me right now, out of all the people why Ryder like just why! I rant to myself

As we both walk on over to the table along the wall, the restaurant was crowded and bombarded with loads of people. the interior design was really beautiful and the lights were brightly lit above the white tables.

we sat comfortably on the brown leather chairs laid around the table.

Since the restaurant was crowded and full of people we had to sit further away from our mums so it literally looked like we were on an actual date.

I took my phone out of my clutch bag to talk to my girls on.

Frenziiessss 😆😚😙💩

Me: what you girls up to?

Maddy: hey girl I'm with Jack, we're watching beauty and the beast😍💃

Jack is Maddy's boyfriend he's a bit older than her and a total bastard. He cheated on her before but promised he wouldn't do it again. He's lucky that Maddy actually forgave him if I was her I would've ended the stupid motherfu...

My thoughts were cut off by the waiter kind of surprised normally it's Ryder who always interupts.

He's tall, white and actually handsome for a waiter. He was wearing a white shirt with a jet black waist coat. Kinda cute...

He hands us a menu with a bright white smile; wow I'm starting to fall for a waiter an extremely handsome waiter though.

He begins to leave when Ryder calls him back "can we have two menu's please I don't do sharing" he coldly says to the waiter.

The waiter nods his head "I'll get another one" he replies politely and walks off.

I admire him as he walks away; he's good looking just like Ryder but Ryder is mean and ignorant whereas he's really polite and kind or maybe it's his job to do that, a voice in my head comments.

He comes back with another menu to hand to me with a smile when Ryder snatches it out of his hand "thank you" he says and smiles like I've never seen before.

Is Ryder gay? I mean he did smile at the waiter as he took the menu a thought popped into my head as the waiter turns away before saying "just give me a shout when you guys are ready to order".

'give a shout' I'm sure Ryder won't mind seeing as he really wanted another menu because he can't share, he then steals mine from the waiter. That's the definition of a selfish brat I rant on in my head.

until I can't hold back the question I mean out of all the people I wouldn't think he'd be gay but what's the harm in asking. "can I ask you a question" I ask politely, however looking at Ryder who hid his face behind the menu.

he completely blanks me as he looks up at me and then back to the menu "not really" he replies turning the page to the desserts and drinks.

"I'm going to ask anyways" I chirp and wait for his reaction, he sighs and puts the menu down "what is it?" he questions "well... umm" how the heck do I say this! "are you... you know gay?" I say trying not to make it sound like I care even though I do.

"no! are you fucking dumb or something, of course, I'm not where the fuck did you even get that from," he says all in one go, his face turning red with an angry expression plastered on his gorgeous face.

"it was just a question calm down," I say defending myself "where did you even get that from," he says calming down. he's a fuck boy I know that but like has he ever thought about guys like that... what? it's just a thought.

"you can't blame me I saw the way you were looking at the waiter" I reply back with a smirk he makes a confused face at first and then starts to laugh "oh... my... gosh you are so weird it's unbelievable".

"I'm not trying to be weird," I say innocently "that's what makes it funny" I pull a face at him and deny that I'm being weird.
