I sat on the soft couch in Payton's room, she was currently taking a shower as we were going out for dinner with my friends, she seemed pretty nervous before she left for the bathroom after I had told her who was going to be there.

Basically everyone from the other day and a few more was going to be there, I looked over to the stairs as I heard footsteps coming down, I saw my wife Jenna making her way down.

"Payt almost ready?" I shrugged, I heard the shower turn off, "well I guess so" I chuckled, Payton emerged from the bathroom a few minutes later fully dressed, quickly flipping me off.

Jenna and I both laugh, we talked while Payton finished getting ready, once she was done we headed out to the car and I sent a message to my friends saying we were on our way.

We got to the restaurant in about 20 minutes and found a parking spot, everyone was waiting at the entrance to go in, we got a table and ordered our drinks and food and talked while we waited.

Payton and Patrick seemed to be in their own world as they talked, they seemed to block everyone else out, I'd almost never seen Payton laugh and smile as much as she was now, I smiled at that, it was good to see her happy.

I overheard Patrick asking Payton if he could take her out sometime, I heard her giggle and reply with yes that she would love to, Patrick started telling her about this really great Indian restaurant downtown, I smiled knowing Payton's eyes would be glistening in happiness and her heart fluttering in her chest.

I was happy that my little sister was happy, I continued my conversation with Brandon, Ryan, and Dallon, we paid for our food and made our way home, we went inside and I watched as Payton walked to her room with a big smile on her face, I could tell that she was a lot happier since Patrick came around.

Later that week on Friday Patrick showed up to the house slightly dressed up, I let him in greeting him and asking why he was here with what he had, he cleared his throat looking kind of nervous.

Everyone knew I was protective of my little sister and that I could get upset prettily easily if you said the wrong thing, he told her that the posters, flowers, and chocolates were for Payton and that he was taking her out on a date if that was okay with me of course.

I laughed, I told him that I wasn't upset and that I was glad it was him and not some douche looking for a quick fuck, he laughed still seeming nervous probably more nervous about the date then the whole "I want to date your sister thing".

I offered him to sit down and make himself at home, she was probably doing her makeup and started late cause she wanted to spend extra time on her outfit and hair.

I went into the kitchen and grabbed a coke zero and a Pepsi from the fridge, I made my way back into the living room handing the coke zero to Patrick, he thanked me and we talked until Payton was ready.

She came up the stairs and Patrick's reaction was priceless, she walked over to him and he grabbed her hand, he brought it up to his mouth placing a light kiss to it.

She giggled and he pulled away grabbing the gifts off of the side table, turning and giving it to her, she smiled wider than before taking the gifts and bowing her head saying a quiet thank you, a few minutes later they were off and I was left alone in the house for a few hours until they came back.
