The next few days got a bit easier as Oriel got the hang of her classes and with Ash continuing to help her with her defense class she didn't have much to worry about. Aside from her budding romance with Ash which she continued to revel in, flirting and bonding with her whenever she could and Ash seemed to always reciprocate. It wasn't until Reznor began texting her a lot did she begin to think she would have a problem. Although she knew there shouldn't be one. If Reznor wanted to go out she'd go. That's exactly what she did.

As Oriel sat down in her math class she rose a brow as her phone went off. Taking it out, she slid the lock over and opened the text she received. Wanna get dinner sometime? Oriel's brows rose as she looked over to Reznor. He had a huge smirk on his face. "So, do you wanna go?"

Oriel grinned and glanced back at Ash. She stared at her through her new glasses, so Oriel could finally view her eyes all she liked now. "Uh, yeah. When?"

"Tonight, how about 7?" He asked, slouching back in his seat.

Oriel thought through her schedule, trying to remember if Ellie gave her any queenly duties to attend to. She knew she'd do her homework that weekend after her and Ash's practice. "Yes, I'm free."

"Sweet. I'll pick you up."

Oriel froze and looked back at Ash again and again she just stared back at her, smiling this time. Oriel blushed. "Well, my bodyguard has to come with us."

Reznor took a look back at Ash and gave a wave and Ash nodded. "Cool, she seems cool. Yeah, she can come." He smiled over to Oriel and Oriel nodded. "Good."

She smiled to herself, turning to the teacher as he walked inside. She was happy about the date, surprisingly. Reznor was a very attractive guy but part of her wondered what Ash would think. She found herself, looking back at the blonde, before shrugging. She should be fine with it.

Oriel stood in her room, every dress she owned was thrown onto her bed and her hands were laced into her hair. "I don't know what to wear, Ashton."

Ash seemed to sigh, her eyes looking over the many dresses. "Anything will do, you know that, your Highness."

"Yeah, yeah, its just.." A doorbell suddenly went off and Oriel gasped, looking over at the clock. "Oh no, he's here." She hurried and picked a random deep red dress and threw it on. Ash hurried to shield her eyes. "It would help if you gave me a warning."

Oriel made no comment as she rushed to put her makeup on and grabbed her purse. "Sorry, let's go." She grabbed her hand tight and rushed out of her room. "Calm down, Oriel, I doubt he's going to leave you."

"He better not." Oriel checked her face in the hallway mirror, making sure her hair looked nice and straight and that her liner was winged just right before grabbing a small leather jacket and grabbed the doorknob before Ash could. Reznor stood in a pair of slacks, a white button-up shirt and a tie, a bouquet of black roses were held tight in his pale hands. "For you, your majesty." He bowed slightly and Oriel giggled. Ash seemed to groan behind her and Oriel rose a brow slightly but followed Reznor out as they walked over to his car. It was a new sleek black Mercedes and Oriel almost squealed. She loved the new car smell. Oriel got in first, followed by Ash. "Are you sure this thing is safe?" Ash asked from the back seat. Oriel was in the passenger side, running her hands over the leather seating. "Yeah, it's safe." Reznor replied, smiling back at Ash who only rolled her eyes at him. "Put you seat on, baby."

Oriel giggled, buckling up and as he pressed the gas the car shot forward. Oriel gasped, holding on tight as he sped down the street. She grinned, laughing the entire way there as he only seemed to drive faster. Oriel caught a glimpse of Ash in the back, who was holding on for dear life and she looked less than impressed. They finally arrived at the restaurant and Oriel watched as Ash got out and Reznor hurried to open her door for her. Oriel smiled at him, thanking her and she could swear she saw Ash glaring at him the whole time. They walked into the fancy eatery and Oriel beamed, clinging to him. They were seated immediately, the staff bowing to her and she grinned before giving her drink order, a tea with a shot of blood on the side.
