A few hours passed since me and Larry talked on the phone. I texted him my address so he could pick me up.  It was now 4:00 which meant I had two hours to get ready. I had no idea what to do with myself. I wasn't sure if this was a casual date or more over the top. I was still in shock that this was actually happening. It all felt like a dream. I started to get ready. I took a shower, managed to pick out a suitable outfit, and finished up my makeup. I've never been too crazy with my makeup, mainly because I don't know how. I just put on some mascara, blush and lip balm. I was almost done getting ready. I took one last look in the mirror, took a deep breath and smiled. I wasn't sure how to dress for the occasion. I was wearing a black long sleeve crop top, with a fitted cream colored pencil skirt, and a pair of black heels. At around 5:50 I headed down stairs. "Wow, you look nice, where are you going all dressed up" Isaiah said from the couch. "Thank you" I smiled. "Well I took your advice and called Larry, and he asked me out on a date. I'll probably be back in a few hours. If you need anything call me" i assured Isaiah. He winked and nodded. I made my way out the door. I was feeling really nervous as I started to breath heavily. i took another deep breath, and made my way down the stairs of the porch. I could see a car parked at the end of the block, standing outside the car was a tall figure, but I couldn't quite see who it was. I walked towards the car. The tall figure's back was turned towards me. "Larry?" I gently tapped on his shoulder. He quickly spun around. "Isabella, Hi" he said as he pulled me in for a hug. I laughed at how quickly he turned, " Hey Larry, how are you?" I squeezed him tight. He smelled so good, I never wanted to let him go. "Im great" he replied as our bodies separated. He held my hand and spun me around, "Wow, you looking so good." I started to blush, "Thank you" I looked him up and down. "You look really good yourself" I winked. He was wearing a brown and white leather jacket, with a white tank top underneath, with black jeans (obviously backwards) with chains hanging off the side, and of course to top it all off a pair of fresh Jordan's. He gave me a cute smile, "Merci!" We got into the car and drove off. I still had no clue where we were going. I started to admire him from the passenger seat. His skin looked smooth, and his eyes had a shine to them. He turned his head towards me and caught me glaring at him. "Oh, I'm sorry" I said blushing. "Its okay" he replied. "Im really happy, you say yes to this date" "I'm really happy too". We made some small talk, just getting to know each other a little bit. We joked and laughed and before we knew it we pulled up to this beautiful restaurant.

Larry's Perspective:

I was having such a great time talking with her in the car, that I didn't want to get out, but I was getting really hungry. I got out of the car and opened Isabella's side door. Her face lit up, while admiring the restaurant. She looked so beautiful, smiling from ear to ear. "You came here before?" I asked. "Never, I've lived my whole life in this city, and I've never seen this before." I grabbed her hand and smiled "then I show you" We walked inside the restaurant and the waiter led us to our reserved table on the balcony.

Isabella's Perspective

The waiter led us to a beautiful balcony, lit up by candles and the city lights. It was a truly breathtaking view. "This is amazing" I said as I sat down. "I'm happy you like it". The way Larry looked at me made me feel a certain way. My heart started beating faster and I got this butterfly feeling in my stomach. Our eyes stayed connected. He smiled sweetly and started to laugh. He grabbed my hand " tell me more about your life" "well, there's not much to tell, but I'm twenty one years old, I'm half black half Italian, I have a younger brother, and... I paused for a moment. "What?" Larry asked, looking a little confused. I looked down shyly, trying not to make eye contact "Believe it or not, I'm a huge Les Twins fan, that's mainly why I'm so nervous." I reply. I was slightly scared to look up and see Larry's reaction. I raised my head. Larry's mouth dropped open and his eyes widened. "Don't lie!" "I'm not lying" I reply. He gave me a mischievous smile, "prove it" I had to gather my thoughts for a moment. "Ok well, you and your identical twin brother Laurent are an unbelievably amazing internationally known dance duo also known as "Les Twins" from Sarcelles, France. In 2008 you both were finalists on the French show "Incroyable Talent", later on you grew in fame after a video of you two dancing at the 2010 "World of Dance" tour went viral with over 24 million views. You've worked with amazing artists like Missy Elliot, Jay Z and Beyonce. Now you two travel all around the world teaching dance workshops and touring. and there's so much more, but ain't nobody got time for that."I joked. Larry looked really surprised that I knew so much. "wow, now I believe you" he laughed. He squeezed my hand tighter "I like you"
