The man takes her small hand in his and leads her toward a shining black Bently. While the woman's eyes grow wide at the expensively beautiful car, the man worries over the fact that he's holding her hand. To the woman this is nothing new. She hasn't held hands with a lot of guys lately but it all seemed so natural too her. Why not hold hands with the man you just went on a date with?

She is worrying about what he will think of the place where she lives. It's not the nicest apartment and it's certainly not in the best part of town. Seeing as he obviously has enormous amounts of money she is very scared to show him where she comes from. She is afraid that once he sees she has come from 'the bottom of the barrel' he will want nothing to do with her. She hopes he will not look down upon her for this. The woman shakes her head. She's over thinking. She thinks better of him. This man is not like that.

"This is your car?" God damnit is everything this man have beautiful?

"Umm yes. Sorry is it too flashy?" I laughed. He was apologizing to me for his car.

"What? No. I love it. Let's go!" I exclaimed. Liam grinned and opened the passenger door for me. "Such a gentleman." I said touching his shoulder before I slide into the seat. He closes the door behind me as I buckle up, running my hands over the fabric of the seat. I had never been in something so nice before.

"You look star struck." Liam said with a chuckle peeling the jacket he was wearing off and tossing it into the backseat. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't staring at his arms or his chest.

"I've never been in a Bently." He places the key in the ignition and starts the car before pulling his seat belt down around him.

"But you know what they look like." I nodded.

"I always thought they were extremely stylish." Liam bit his bottom lip as he looked out the back window while he backed up the car. We said nothing as he straightened out and pulled out of the parking lot. "Umm take a right here." Liam looked down the street once, twice, three times. He was a very careful person. I fiddled with my fingers nervously as I stared out the window. "You just go straight for a while." Liam nodded keeping both hands steady on the wheel.

"So I had a great time..." He never finished the sentence because I clamped my hand over his mouth. Liam looked at me quizzically.

"You're going to waste all our small talk now? Leave that for when you walk me up to my apartment." I told him as I carefully removed my hand from his mouth. He started laughing and shook his head as the light turned red. "So how is Audrey? Who did you leave her with?" He let's go of the wheel and rakes his hands through his hair. Something I've determined he does when he's nervous.

"She's okay I left her with her Uncle." Oh I didn't know he had siblings. Well I really don't know much about him.

"I didn't know you had a brother." Liam chuckles.

"Oh he's not my brother thank God. He's my best mate. I've known him for years. He's around so often I just told Audrey he was her Uncle. I have two sisters but no brothers." He blows out a puff of air and puts his hands back on the wheel as it turns green.

"I have an older brother. He was a pain in the ass growing up. He would always pull my hair and tease me but he didn't really like it when anyone else did it." I laugh at the memory of Ashton beating some boy up because he called me a brat then later getting in trouble for it.

"People used to tease you when you were younger?" I blushed bright pink.

"Yeah. I wasn't the most popular person back in middle school." I shrugged like it was no big deal when it was.
