5:52 pm.

I made it, only with 8 minutes to spare but I did make it. Sitting in my Jeep, I seen a Dodge Challenger pulling up beside me. It was a dark blue with all tinted windows. I didn't want to be rude and stare to long but I did admire the car. It was one of my favorites.

Grasping for something to look at, I grabbed my phone and started scrolling. There was nothing interesting I was looking at, I just wanted to distract myself from staring. I didn't want the person to think I had mental issues.

Opening the camera app on my phone, I checked my makeup and hair. It was good, my mother was right. She'd chosen the right outfit. I was glad it still worked for me. The black sheer blouse and tight fitting black pants with my black heel boots. Perfect match.

It was then that I heard a peck on my window. Slowly, I looked to my left and there stood Damon. He wore that infamous smirk but looked handsome as ever. He wasn't under or over dressed. He was perfect. I'm not sure if it was his usual to leave the top couple of buttons undone but it suited him very nicely.

Quickly, I reached for the silver handle and pushed the door open making him step back a bit. He held his hand for me to step out of my Jeep, which I took.

"You look... lovely Ms. Lafayette." He smiled, his eyes taking up and down my figure.

Letting my head fall, I tried to hide my smile.

"Thank you. As do you Mr. Salvatore. Simply irresistible." I shot back, earning a toothy smile from him.

His grey suit practically hugged his body. The black hair glistened as if he just stepped out of the shower. The white shirt he wore under peeked out, gracing me with a little show of his chest.

Simply mouthwatering.

Still holding my left hand, he wrapped it around his right bicep and shot a smile my way.

"Thank you. Shall we?" He asked.

"Lead the way." I quipped.

As we walked into the restaurant, I felt the many stares boring into my face and back. Honestly, it was from both male and female. I'm not sure if they were looks of longing or jealousy. Something told it was al little bit of both.

As we walked closer, I made eye contact with Kenny who happily stood up. His face turned from worried to relief once he saw my face. He reached and pulled me in for a hug as he always did, making me retract my arm from Damon.

"I was just about to text you." He said as he hugged me, then whispered 'explain' once his lips reached my ear.

I knew he was referring to Damon.

"Yea, well I made it." I said pulling back from the embrace, ignoring his statement.

Kenny then smiled at pointed to the chairs that sat in front of where we were standings. "Have a seat, Mina didn't tell me she was bringing a surprise."

Kenny was determined to find out who Damon was if he had to beat it out of me. But fortunately for Kenny, I loved him and I wouldn't hurt him... yet.
