My white converse stepped on something in front of my door, me noticing it before. I picked up the red bouquet of roses, spotting a white note in the middle of it with pink ribbon, the same ribbon the bouquet was wrapped in.
I opened it and read :
To : Ella

"That's not my name" I mumbled, continuing to read the note.

See ya in 3 hours doll.

I threw the bouquet into my suite, locking the door back up again. He is really pissing me off. I walked up to the front desk, asking about the whole situation.
"Oh the curly haired one? Oh yes he told me to give you this." He said as he reached for a white box on a shelf. "He said to take it back to your suite for tonight." He said with a wink. I rolled my eyes, taking the box from his hands. I was walking away as I heard him shout.
"Use protection!"
Haha.
I sat on my bed, opening up the present to see an outfit that he had probably picked out and expected me to wear. Not a chance. I shoved the box off of my bed, deciding to take a nap.
I hit the hardwood floor as I yelped, seeing a figure in front of me. I immediately reach for a baseball bat (my mom told me to keep one under my bed at all times) and started thrashing the being with it.
"Hey, doll, calm down its me."
"I know." I said, continuing to hit him with the bat.
He took the bat out of my hands easily, throwing it into a corner.
"Why aren't you dressed?" He asked.
"For what?"
"Our date."
"We're not going on a date."
"Yes we are."
"No we're not."
"Yes we are."
"No. You'll have to drag me out the door for me to go on that date." And with that he pushed to the ground and reached for my legs, dragging me out the door. "Fuck you." I hissed at him. "Oh doll, trust me I would love too but this is not the time or place to do so is it?" He said cockily. I huffed as we were finally out in the hallway. I had just noticed I was wearing my sweatpants and cami, with my hair in a nest as usual.
"Are you sure you want to be seen with me like this?" I asked him, trying to get out of this god-for-saken date.
"Doll, I would be seen with you if you just came back from digging in a manure pile. Or naked." He smiled, raising his eyebrows.
"Just, where are you taking me?"
"To my room for a candle lit dinner." He smiles taking my hand.
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"I have brownies."
"Okay."
He kicked open the door to his suite, and I noticed how there weren't many things in his place besides a few tables and chairs, and of course, a table with a velvet cloth and one candle in the center.
He lead me to the table and pulled out the chair for me. But of course I didn't notice so I fell on my butt, making him laugh.
"Get up Doll."
"No thank you, I'm just fine here."
And with that he set up the table, each of us with a plate, a wine glass, eating utensils, and a bowl. I sat up in my chair, resting my elbows on the tanks and resting my head in my hands.
"What are we gonna eat?"
"Shit." He mumbled. "I was so caught up in setting everything up I forgot to buy the food."
"Told you you're a dumbass. What about those brownies you promised me?"
"I lied."
We both looked at eachother.
"You want ramen noddles?"
"Hell yeah."
