Best friends, best friend 💔 - Lil Xan

Chapter 12

Gabi's POV
"Hey it's about to be six. I should start to head down." I say.

"Okay have fun!" Brielle says as we walk out of my room and I walk out the door and she walks into Ethan's.

I get in the elevator and press the lobby button and then walk outside when I spot Diego's g-wagon. He sees me start walking towards it and gets out and comes over to me.

"Hi baby!" He says pulling me into his arms.

"Hi D!" I say with a smile hugging him back.

He opens the car door for me and I thank him.

"Where are we going?" I ask as he gets in the car.

"Uhh just to del taco." He says.

"Oh, okay." I say a little confused cause I thought this was a date but not to disappointed because I love del taco.

"Gabi, I'm kidding. We're not going to del taco." Diego says.

"Okay, so then where are we going?" I ask.

"Um, there's this Italian restaurant by my apartment building and it's really good." He says.

"Okay." I say.

We listen to music and laugh on the five minute drive to the restaurant.

"Wait here." He says before getting out of the car and running around to the passenger side and opening the door for me making me slightly blush.

"Thank you." I say as he grabs my hand and helps me out of the truck.

He nods his head and flashes me an adorable smile before closing the door and locking them. We hold hands and he opens the restaurant door for me. We walk in and get seated at a cute little booth and he sits next to me like he usually does which makes me smile and playfully roll my eyes.

"Your adorable." I say pinching his cheeks making him groan and grab my hands.

"Stopp." He whines pulling my hands away from his face.

"Hi I'll be your waitress what would you guys like to drink?" A youngish looking girl maybe 17 or 18 asked.

Diego looked to me to let me order first and I reply sprite and he gets a Dr Pepper.

"Hm, do you know what's good?" I ask leaning my head on his shoulder while I look at the menu.

"Uh, the pasta is really good." He says.

"What are you gonna get?" I ask.

"Probably spaghetti with meatballs." He says and I nod looking over the pasta options on the menu.

The waitress comes back and hands us our drinks.

"Are you guys ready to order?" She asks and we both nod our heads.

"Um, I'll have the penne vodka." I say closing the menu and handing it to her.

"And you?" She asks Diego.

"Um, spaghetti and meatballs." He says before handing her his menu.

"Okay, that will be up shortly." She says and we thank her.

Diego cuddles into my side like he usually does which makes me smile. I push his hood off his head revealing his curly multicolored hair.

"No beanie?" I ask running my hands through his curls.

"No." He replies.

"I think this is the first time I've seen you out in public without a beanie on." I say.
