Loreli's POV

I'm so nervous, what if he's awful and mean to me. "Is it bad that I'm going on a date with my stalker?"

"Well only if you put it like that." Carry smiled. "If you say it like that then it makes me sound bad for encouraging it. But I have always been go against the flow kind of person."

"Maybe this isn't a good idea." I begin to have second thoughts when there's a knock at the door. We both freeze, starring at the door. He knocks again and I snap out of it. "Uh, coming." Slowly I nervously open the door. "JAMES?!!!" There stands James holding a bouquet of flowers. 

"Well it's nice to see you too." He smiles. He looks me up and down. "You look beautiful."

"Uhm, thanks. Why are you here?"

"I wanted to see you off. Oh is lover boy late? Why don't I take you out instead?!"

"Ahem." A tall dark auburn haired man stood in the doorway. He was handsome. He had on a white shirt and a black vest over it. "Actually according to my watch I'm right on time." James turns around and was about to say something but wisely decides against it.

"Mr. E?" I assume.

"Hello Loreli." He smiles at me.

Riddler's POV

"Hello Loreli," I smile. She's gorgeous, just as amazing as when I first saw her. But that's for another time. I'm taken out of my thoughts when I hear her friend sqweal in delight.

"Omg, you two look so cute! So what's your real name?" She asks.

"Edward." I reply.

"That makes sense." Loreli smiles at me.

"You ready?" I hold out my arm to escort her out the door. But I'm stopped by the same idiot who said I was late!

"Now hold on, just where exactly are you taking her hm? I can't believe your acctually doing this Lor! He could be a psychopath!". Is he on to me? No surely this baffoon isn't capable of putting that together.

"He looks pretty sane to me, James!" Loreli defends me.

"Look, I just don't trust him!"

"Hey, James right? Look I like Loreli a lot, obviously you do too, and I can't blame you for that, she is pretty amazing." I notice her blush, "But it seems that she's made her choice. So if you don't mind, get out of our way." I say menacingly.

"Uh, sure." He moves, wise choice. I smirk and take Loreli out the door. I take her to a place where I'm sure no one will call the cops on me, it's called the Iceberg Lounge. It's run by Penguin so I can somewhat trust it.

"Oh, gosh, if I knew you were taking me here I would have put on something better!" Loreli said insecurely. A few people sneered at her because of her infancy attire. I glare at them and the look away frightened. That's what I thought!

"You look amazing, don't worry about it." We went up to the front desk.

"I'm sorry we're full today." The man shooed us away.

"I have a reservation." I inform him.

"Name?" He asked rudely.

"Nashton." I tell him. He lakhs through his list of papers inspecting every name.

"I don't see it here." He says unsurprised.

"What?!" I snap.

"Hey, Eddie it's alright we could go somewhere else." Loreli says softly.
