He saw him walking towards him in the midst of all those teens. He had to say something, without being too obvious.
"Hey, Palace, you been working out?" he hesitated, immediatly regretting what he said.
Palace smiled, "Yeah, I went to the gym last night." he flexed his arms showing off his muscles,
Philips automaticly reached out and squeezed Palace's arm, "Oh, not bad!" he flirted.
Palace laughed, "It's more than you do, you stay here all day and night working."
"I have to do right by the kids, being the main principal is a big job." Philips beamed. He looked around at the students, some of them were staring at Palace and him. But they were in the middle of the lobby so they could be watching other students walk in.
"I've been meaning to ask you," Palace began, snapping Philips back to attention. "Do you want to have dinner with me tonight? I was hoping we could talk about the weight-training facility we may be getting?"
This was Philips's chance to finally go out with Palace. It may not start as a date but Philips was sure going to make it end as one.
------------DINNER------------
"Thanking you for picking me up. My stupid car is always breaking down on me." Philips stammered nervously buckling up his seat belt in Palace's truck.
Palace put the truck in drive and began to leave the high school. "Ah, don't mention it. I don't mind, plus it saves on gas."
All the way to Logan's they talked about gas prices, school, and other boring adult stuff.
Palace pulled up to the entrance, "You go ahead and get out, I'll park the car."
Philips got out and walked to the door. After about a minute Palace had the car parked and met up with Philips at the door. They went inside and got a booth for two.
"This is one of my favorite restaurants. So, anyways, what did you want to talk to me about?"
Palace picked up his sweet tea and took a sip, "Well, I wanted to talk about the weight-train-" A phone was ringing.
Philips jumped and reached into his pocket. He looked at who was calling, "Sorry, but I have to take this." Palace nodded.
Philips stood up, went outside, and answered the phone, " Hello, Valerie."
"Doug, this is an emergency! Ashley wants to go out to eat and I'm not sure if I can be alone with her." Littleton huffed through the phone.
"Okay, calm down. Bring her to Logan's and you two can have dinner with Kyle and me." Philips told her.
They hung up and he went back inside to Palace, who was having a conversation with the waitor.
"Yes, I'm the coach at Dickson High School." Palace smiled looking into the waitor's deep green eyes.
"Oh, that's cool. It explains why you're so strong and muscly." the waitor said dripping with flirtation.
Philips tapped on the waitor's shoulder, "Excuse you, but don't you have a job to be doing?"
The waitor scowled at Philips, flashed a sweet grin at Palace, and left.
Philips sat down and took a drink of his coke, "Ashley and Valerie will be joining us shortly, if that's fine with you."
"Yeah. that's alright. What was with you and the waitor?" Palace questioned.
Philips shrugged, "Nothing, I just think people should do their job."
Just then Littleton and Jennings walked through the door and spotted the two guys.
"Hey, you two!" Jennings said squeezing next to Palace.
"Hey, Ashley, how ya been?" Palace asked turning toward her.
Littleton sat next to Philips, "So, how's it going?" she whispered.
They both looked at Palace and Jennings who were talking about students that they shared.
"It could be better. But considering he doesn't know it's a date, pretty good." Philips told Littleton quietly.
A different waitor showed up and took their food orders and after a few minutes of waiting their food arrived. The rest of the dinner was quiet and uneventful. After eating they split up the check and went outside.
"Well, this was fun! We should do this more often." Jennings said jumping from foot to foot trying to stay warm.
"Dinner was very nice," Littleton looked at the time on her phone, "but as much fun as it's been I really have to be going. Lots of papers to grade."
Palace kissed Jennings's cheek while Philips kissed Littleton's cheek. Then Palace kissed Littleton's cheek and Philips kissed Jennings's cheek.
Palace looked at Philips and smirked, "Where's my cheek kiss?"
Philips's face turned blood red, "I'll do you one better." Philips locked lips with Palace. He was quite proud of himself, he was kissing his crush. He did what he set out to do tonight. Philips sneaked a glance at Littleton and Jennings and he was happy to see that they were kissing as well.
