I walked out of the hotel bathroom wrapped in a towel, looking for Matty. He wasn't in the room, confusing me. I had jumped in the shower to get ready for our date, and now he's suddenly not here.

"Matty?" I called out. "Where are you?" The hotel door received a knock, and I turned to face the door, slightly startled. I walked to the door, opening it to see Matty smiling.

"I went to get ice," Matty explained. "Were you worried?"

"Yes," I pulled my towel up. "I thought something had happened to you."

"Nope, not yet," Matty chuckled.

"What should I wear? I brought almost everything..." I sighed.

"Casual," Matty answered. "Casual formal."

"Okay," I nodded. "I'll be in the bathroom." Once I turned I felt Matty's arm around my waist. He kissed my cheek, making me blush.

"I'll be in here," Matty smiled.

I walked back into the bathroom and looked at my suitcase. I took a deep breath, beginning to dig through all of my clothes.

I found the dress that I bought on tour, which is a plain black dress with a white collar. The dress also has pockets! I then looked through all of the lingerie I brought with me, groaning at the thought.

"Babe?" Matty chuckled on the other side of the door. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," I sighed. "I don't want to fix my hair," I lied.

"Oh," Matty responded. "I can come sit with you?"

"Let me get dressed," I replied. "It won't take me very long."

Once I was dressed and I put everything back in my suitcase, I opened the bathroom door. Matty looked me up and down and smiled.

"You look lovely," he kissed my cheek. "You always do."

I rolled my eyes at Matty as he sat on the counter. "Is this a new dress?" He questioned, and I nodded. "I like it."

"Thank-you," I smiled. "I thought you would... but you like most things I wear." I grabbed a strand of my hair and began to curl it.

"Yes I do," Matty nodded. "Especially what's under things."

"Matthew," I laughed.

"I'm just saying!" Matty chuckled. "I'm guessing that's what you were groaning about?"

"You'd be correct," I admitted.

"You don't have to wear all of that," Matty smiled at me. "I would like you just as much with granny panties."

"That's very thoughtful," I joked.

"Yes I know, I'm fucking great," Matty smirked at me. "I'm hungry."

"You're not even dressed yet," I laughed.

"That's true," Matty jumped up. "I'll bring my clothes in here to keep you company." I was almost finished with my hair, yet Matty still walked back into the bathroom.

"Bow tie, or the ribbon, string shit?" Matty asked.

"Ribbon, string shit," I answered, smiling. I set down my hair curler, turning it off.

Matty threw off his shirt as I leaned against the counter and crossed my arms. Matty began to button his white shirt up.

"Should I put my hair up?" Matty questioned.

"No," I answered.

"Why?" Matty smiled.

"Because," I shrugged. "I like it better down."

"Oh, okay," Matty smiled. "Then I'll happily leave it down; for you, love."

We walked along the brick road, Matty's hand in mine. People passed by, speaking with a strong Irish accent, which was expected. I smiled at the streetlights lighting up the dim path.

My phone began buzzing in the pockets of my dress. I pulled out my phone, surprising myself at the caller ID.

"Leo?" I answered. "Haven't talked to you in a while!"

"Yeah," Leo chuckled. "I stopped by at your place and neither of you are here? There's a car and a guy named Adam watching your place? Where are you guys?"

I smiled, "Matty took me to Ireland."

"Oh my! That must be fun!" Leo laughed. "I was calling to ask you for help... I want to surprise Alise... but I don't know what to do for her."

I looked up at Matty with a smile, "Consider something small... get her breakfast in the morning and keep surprising her with simple things throughout the day."

"Now don't tell me that Matty has done that for you," Leo chuckled.

"He has," I mumbled, leaning on Matty's side.

"Okay then it has to work! I'll call you soon. Tell me when you get back, we need to catch up!" Leo chuckled. "I miss you, Sari."

"I miss you too," I nodded. "I will call you, and Alise is invited as well."

"Of course, bye Sari!" Leo exited the call, and I turned to Matty.

Matty smiled at me, shaking his head. I laughed, hugging onto his arm. Matty then pulled to a halt in front of a small restaurant.

"Matty," I breathed.

"Oh hush," Matty led me inside. The restaurant had small tables all around; there were stairs leading to I'm guessing more tables.

Matty and I walked up to the waiter and Matty nodded before speaking. "Reservation for Healy?" Matty stated.

"Of course," the waiter nodded. "Right this way." The waiter led us upstairs, which I was right, was more tables. We followed closely behind the waiter as he continued walking to the balcony doors, opening them. In front of my eyes was one table for two, wine waiting and a rose on the table.

I turned to Matty with a gaped mouth, and he just smiled. Matty pulled out a chair for me, and I sat down.

"I'm Walker, I'll be your waiter on this beautiful night. If you need anything I'll find you. I'll be back in a second to get your orders," Walker nodded before walking away.

"Matty!" I turned to Matty. "What the fuck is this?"

"It's our balcony," Matty smiled. "Wine?" He poured me a glass. "Ease up, love."

I took the wine glass in shock. I took a sip and tasted the best wine I've ever had. I covered my mouth as Matty laughed after drinking his.

"This is delightful!" Matty laughed.
