Audrey let her free hand slip inside her purse, taking the car keys and brushing her fingers on the small white box, the other subconsciously squeezing Shelby's hand.

Shelby could sense her lover's nervousness and felt like she had to ask. "Baby, are you okay?"

Audrey nearly jumped as she heard her lover's words, too caught up in her thoughts; She let out an embarrassed chuckle, unlocking the car and opening the passenger's door for her lover. "Yes, my love." She said softly, smiling to her lover. "Yes, just a bit... nervous." She confessed.

"Why?" Shelby asked as she stood between Audrey and the car. She gently brought her hand up to caress her lover's cheek.

Audrey bit her lip as her nervousness got stronger and stronger, thoughts of her lover thinking something bad kept coming into her mind, and she just wished Shelby wouldn't feel bad or worried about their relationship. "I p-promise you'll understand, baby." She said softly.

"Okay," Shelby nodded before getting into the car. "Thank you. You're such a lady." She said playfully.

Audrey let out a relieved sigh, giggling as she went to the other side of the car, entering it; Her palms were sweating, and she took another deep breath before starting the car, purse on her lap. "Well, so are you, my love." She answered playfully, starting to drive.

Shelby took her lover's free hand, lacing their fingers together. "What can I say, I'm a ladies lady." She joked followed by a small chuckle.

Audrey gladly took her lover's hand, caressing her fingers; She burst into laughs with Shelby's words, biting her lip sweetly, her mind getting clouded with happy thoughts, thoughts of how lucky she was for having such an awesome woman as her soon-to-be wife. "No, you are my lady and only mine." She teased.

"You're right." Shelby smiled. She watched out the window as her lover drove to the restaurant. The whole time she wondered where they were headed.

Audrey smiled happily with her lover's answer, keeping her eyes on the road; As soon as they turned on the restaurant's block, Audrey felt her stomach doing flips, and she glanced at Shelby, wanting to see if she realized what placed it was already.

Shelby looked forward, and a smile started to form on her lips. "Our first date?" she asked softly.

Audrey parked as her lover started talking; She turned off the car and stared lovingly at her girlfriend, a huge smile on her face, hand squeezing Shelby's softly. "Surprise!" She said happily.

Shelby's smile grew larger as she looked deeply into her lover's eyes. "Awe, thank you." She said before leaning over the center console and kissing the woman's lips lovingly.

Audrey giggled, kissing her lover back sweetly, pulling away hesitantly, caressing Shelby's cheek as she did so, pecking her a million times before letting go. "C'mon, we have more surprises coming!" She said excitedly, unbuckling herself and Shelby.

"Okay," Shelby chuckled before getting out of the car. She smiled over Audrey's enthusiasm over just dinner. She straightened her dress before joining her lover in front of their car. She took the woman's hand, lacing their fingers again.

Audrey excitedly got out of the car, taking her purse and straightening her outfit before grabbing her lover's hand, caressing it happily; The actress guided them to the door, and the waiter soon came. "Good night ladies, table for two?"

"We have a reservation under Tindall," Audrey said happily.

"Follow me, please, the dinner has just been served as you ordered." He smiled to the actress, guiding them to the table.
