"Blair, even though this relationship is completely unethical and could get me fired in seconds, I can't imagine a day without you. I'm falling for you Blair and I don't ever want to stop, will you please do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" She said softly, her voice cracking in a few places as I looked into her emerald eyes

Holy shit. Alice actually asked me to be her girlfriend. Oh my god it's actually happening, she actually asked. Fuck, Blair, get it together and answer the poor woman.

"I would love to be your girlfriend Alice." I smiled probably looking like a love sick idiot as I gazed over at her

She let out a breath and smiled brightly "God that was stressful."

I laughed softly and leaned over the table kissing her softly "It was perfect."

"You're perfect." She blushed as Bonnie came towards us

She had a smirk on her lips that made me believe she had known this was happening. I was honestly curious why Alice hadn't mentioned her before, she seemed really nice.

"How'd it go?" Bonnie asked still smirking at us

Alice laughed "She said yes."

"So you finally have a girlfriend!" Bonnie said in excitement "A hot girlfriend!"

"Oh my god." Alice chuckled "Yes I have a really hot girlfriend."

"And so do I." I said causing both of them to look at me

Bonnie giggled "I can't handle this, it's too cute and I'm way too single."

"I'd help you out but you're straight." Alice joked

Bonnie rolled her eyes "Like you even know any girls, you haven't been on a date in years until now."

"I can help you though." I grinned causing Alice to glare at me "Hey, I'm not gonna date them, I'm saying I know some hot single guys for her."

Bonnie was now blushing "I'm definitely gonna take you up on that, also I have your food ready if y'all are hungry."

"I'm starved." Alice joked causing us both to laugh

Bonnie nodded and smiled "I'll be right back again."

"She's really sweet." I whispered once she had started walking away

Alice nodded with a small smile "She's one of my closest friends."

"Why didn't you tell me about her?" I questioned genuinely curious

She rolled her eyes "It just didn't come up."

"Mm," I hummed "so what's for dinner?"

"You'll find out." She replied winking at me before taking a sip of her wine

It was now my turn to roll my eyes "How many secrets are there on this date?"

"Only a few more." She giggled "Are you complaining?"

"Definitely not." I grinned as Bonnie approached us with a crockpot

"Here you go ladies." She smiled, setting it down on the table "Cheese tortellini in a garlic Parmesan butter sauce, I hope you like it."

Sounds fucking awesome, my mouth is already watering.

"Sounds delicious." I said eyeing the crockpot before turning to Bonnie "Thank you so much again for helping poor Alice plan this amazing date. I can't imagine how long you guys spent planning this."

"No problem at all, I'm just excited I got to help." She grinned "Also I'm going to leave the s'mores stuff by the fire pit and head home, I hope you guys have an amazing rest of your date. Thank you so much for letting me help Alice."

"Of course Bonnie, you're the best. Thank you again you're an amazing chef, and I guess you're a pretty good friend too." Alice joked causing Bonnie to stick her tongue out at her

We all laughed and said our goodbyes before Bonnie headed back to her car and placed some things by the fire pit. We watched as she got into her red mazda and pulled away leaving us alone with the delicious smelling food. Alice served the tortellini onto both of our plates and then put the lid back onto the crockpot with a smile.

"It smells heavenly." I half moaned looking down at my plate

She giggled softly picking up her fork "You'd better dig in then."

I took my first bite and I swear that I had an orgasm in my mouth.

"It tastes even better." I giggled before taking another bite

She grinned "You're right about that, but I still think you taste better."

"Watch yourself or we're gonna have to skip right to dessert." And trust me I almost dragged her straight into the tent after that comment

"I wouldn't mind but I really would like to eat and enjoy the fire first." She laughed as we continued eating

Once we finished the meal, Alice poured each of us a glass of wine and led me over to the fire. There was a large log for seating and a small cozy fire burning already, damn she did good setting this date up.

"So would my girlfriend like a s'more?" She smiled cheekily at me as she picked up one of the marshmallow sticks

"Mhm, I like hearing you say that." I smiled taking a stick from her

She laughed putting marshmallows on for both of us "You'd better get used to it."

We roasted our marshmallows, talking and laughing the whole time. Alice really has impressed me tonight, this really showed me how much she cares. I had been falling for her hard since I met her and every time I thought I couldn't like her anymore, she surprised me. She made me feel loved and happy, something I hadn't had in awhile besides Callie. Obviously things with Alice were much different though, the feelings were so much stronger and the way she made me feel was indescribable. She licked the marshmallow off her fingers and I smirked thinking of the other times I'd seen her do something similar. Even though the sex was amazing and I had tried to act like that's all this was for awhile, it was so much more than that.

"Whatcha thinkin about?" She giggled seeming to be feeling the fifth glass of wine she had

I was now on my fifth as well and was definitely drunk "You."

"What about me?" She asked looking up at me with an adorable expression

I smiled softly "How happy you make me."

"I wouldn't want you to feel any other way with me." She grinned taking my hand in hers

"I can't imagine ever feeling differently with you." I sighed looking down "I care about you so much that it scares me."

She cradled my chin in her fingers bringing my gaze to meet hers "I would never hurt you Blair, I need you to know that."

"I do," I smiled nodding slightly "it's just going to take some time to sink in fully."

"Take all the time you need." She smiled gently caressing my cheek with her thumb
