"Okay it's like this, he and I thought it would be a good idea to make it a double date kind of vacation, so he is bringing his closest friend to meet you." She cringed like if she was w...
I stood in front of my mirror in the black dress Pye had ordered me to bring; it had a simple bodice that highlighted my figure, came up short over my knee and cover my collarbone, shoulders and arms in a see through chocolate color lace. Strapped heels and purse to match with the lace and I let my wavy short hair loose. Makeup, I almost always go for natural. Jay you look like you tried to look good! I have decided to play nice with this guy for a few weeks, so I will try my best.
"Aren't you out to kill tonight for someone that claims to be uninterested?" Pye said looking beautiful in her dress she paired it nicely with red accessories. " You ready?"
"I don't like this one bit. Do I look alright?" I wanted to give a good impression at least.
"You look great and I will be there, you say the word and we are out." I laughed at that and walked out to the night arm in arm with my best friend. It was 8:15 pm when we got to the restaurant and we were fashionably late. The host guided us to our table where two tall men sat back toward us. Pye was giddy and I was nervous, what a pair we made. As we got to the table both guys stood up and faced us. Try to relax Jay or look relaxed at least...
" Pye!" N gave her a bear hug and when he pulled away he looked at me smiling and said "Jay, I almost didn't recognize you, you look lovely." My cheeks must have turned crimson and I lowered my eyes. N continued like he had not just embarrassed me. "This is my best friend Taek Woon, Leo this is Payton and Jayla."

I know I was expected to say my greetings, so as I heard Pye greet the stranger I did a little recon. While lifting my eyes to face him I saw he was very well built and tall but when I saw his face, I almost lost my composure. Oh God, it' s the guy from the cafe... Who cares who he is... ? Say something Jay! I chimed myself. Taek Woon extended his hand to me saying " The second time we meet, Miss Jayla."
I shook his hand and simply answered, " So it seems Mister Taek Woon, but call me Jay, the miss thing feels too formal."
N and Pye were looking at each other probably wondering where we had met before. Taek Woon smiled and replayed "Then you can call me Leo".
Leo, such a fitting name...he looks like a prince...He pulled out my chair for me to sit and he did the same. Well they did tell me he was a gentleman. After the greetings were over, we ordered our food. N and Pye chatted non-stop, and Leo and I did the exact opposite. Our food was served and everyone began to eat. After dinner soft music was playing and couples started dancing, N took Pye to dance and they left us alone. No wait...don' t leave me! "So mmm..."
We both said at the same time and laughed. "Ladies first" this came from Leo.
"So you knew it was me and didn't tell me?" He looked away and didn't answer and just nodded his head, I decided to change the subject. "So I was told you are a singer- songwriter."
