 "But it's like, 10PM at night. No kind of restaurant is open at this time, Dwayne." I scrunched my eyebrows together, as Dwayne kept the same annoying smirk on his face. "I promise if you get dressed now, and we leave in, like, 20 minutes, we will be able to eat in a restaurant. 

I shrugged my shoulders, believing Dwayne, walking up the stairs. "I need you to get your dirty ass shoes off my clean wood, D." He laughed, picking them up, and placing them outside my front door. "Anything for my Princess."

I blushed heavily, as Dwayne kissed me on my forehead. "I love you, beautiful." "I love you too." Walking into my room, I took a very quick shower, applying natural makeup, and putting on my black sundress I've been dying to wear. "Dee, are my heels still down there!?" I shouted from the banister, as he shouted a Yeah! back.

I spritzed my Jessica Simpson perfume all over, while walking down the wooden steps barefooted. As I neared downstairs, I noticed Dwayne snacking on something in the kitchen. "Hmm, 19 minutes. Pretty impressive for you." I rolled my eyes mockingly, as Dwayne quickly ran to my assistance.

"Let me put these on your feet, m'lady." He patted a seat on the couch, as I blushed. It was just like the first time he met me, only now, instead of $180 sneakers, now being my black strapped 6inches. "You about my height now girl!" I laughed, as he helped me walk outside. "It feels good out here." He opened the side of my car door, as I was greeted by my purse. "I know how forgetful you are," Dwayne added, as he smiled, starting the car up. 

"Dwayne, I still know nothing as to where the fuck we are going." He chuckled, telling me to calm down, as we would arrive any second. He pulled the car into a semi-empty parking lot, which enlightened a very small building covered in colored laterns. "M'lady, I present to you, Pappadeax's." We walked hand in hand to the very beautiful restaraunt. I was astounded at every small detail of the Mexican cultured restaurant. 

"Hola, how many papi?" A waiter asked, as Dwayne motioned 2. "Outside?" I nodded quickly, and Dwayne smiled at my motions. She brought us to an upstairs dining area, and finally sat us at a beautiful table on a patio-like setting. "I'll be back to get your drinks." We both nodded, as she entered back into the restaurant. 

"This is beautiful, Dwayne." "I knew you'd like it." "Like it?" I opened my menu, browsing the options. "I love it!" I was amazed at how many different options they had, considering most 'Mexican' restaurants only had the options of tacos, tacos, and what else? Tacos. "That blackened salmon sounds real good." My mouth watered, simply from mentioning how good it sounded. "I think I'm going to get that crab fajita. It sounds pretty good." 

I stared at him with a disgusted face; only boys would try something like that. The waiter quickly came back to take our orders and drinks, and in the remainder of about 20 minutes, we had already had our entrees. "This is so good." I closed my eyes chewing, just to get the actual taste of how good it was. "Mmm, this has got to be the best fajita, Alex." 

I smiled, enjoying his company, and enjoying my food. "Thank you." I began, as he looked up at me. "For what?" "For everything." "Alex, someone as beautiful and smart as you deserves something like this. You deserve to be treated like a princess," He paused to eat a spoonful of rice. "You don't gotta thank me."

I blushed, cutting my salmon in half, and placing it into my To-Go box. "Cmon," I stood up, taking Dwayne's hand, as I took him closer to the edge. "I think we're literally the only customers here." He laughed, seeing that our car and a couple of cars in the back were still here. "I love you." He bent down, kissing me on my cheek.

"Your breath smells like crab." I looked up at him laughing hard, as he playfully rolled his eyes, continuing to give me sloppy kisses with his unpleasant breath. "Nigga, if you don't get off." We both laughed, as we packed up the rest of our entrees, saving it for later. "Any desserts mamicita?" I looked at her shocked, and nodded no, as Dwayne butted in. "Get me 4 sopapillas to go." "Ah, excellent choice, I'll be back."

"What in the heck are soap pias?" I asked, as he chuckled at how incorrectly I had pronounced the word. "They are really good, trust me babe." "Babe?" I asked, as he nodded confidently. "I can finally call you mines now." "Mines? Dwayne, you laugh at me for mispronunciation and you say mines?" "Yes, mines."

The waiter brought out 4 weird looking things coated in some kind of chocolate sauce, and what I think was cinnamon. "Thank y'all for coming." She placed the check on the table, as Dwayne gave her his credit card. "Enjoy, they are hot!" I weirdly looked at Dwayne, as he split one. "A SOPAPILLA is like a funnel cake, covered in chocolate and cinnamon. Try it with me." He passed me the other half, and on three, we both  bit into it.

"This is absolutely, heaven, Dwayne." "I told you!" It tasted so good, better than a funnel cake (and Lord knows how much I love me some funnel cake.) "Give me more," I practically begged, as Dwayne passed me another one. We ate in a calming silence, which fulfilled of workers beginning their cars, and the loud smacks coming from our mouths. 

We quickly exited the restaurant, thanking our waitress, leaving her a big tip (Dwayne was trying to impress me, I guess.) We arrived back at my house, and Dwayne quickly came to my side to open the car door. "Thank you my kind sir." "No problem m'lady." I grabbed my keys to the front door, opening it and quickly crashing on the couch.

"Babe, I'm gonna run to Kroger and get us some Netflix movies. I'll be back in like, 20 minutes. Go ahead and warm the popcorn." I smiled and nodded, as he quickly left out the front door. Sighing loudly, I took off my heels, walking with them up the stairs in one hand. I reached my room door, turning on the light to see something that really scared me.

Rayan, laying, in my bed. "RAYAN! WHAT THE FUCK DUDE?" I screamed, as he laughed at apparently how scared I was. "HOW THE FUCK DID YOU EVEN GET IN HERE?" "You and Dwayne were so busy talking, y'all didn't lock the front door." "How long you been here?" "Like, 30 minutes." Still a little creeped out, I placed both my purse and shoes on the floor, crossing my arms. "Why are you here?"

"Because..." He arose from the bed, grabbing my waist from where he was standing. "I want you." He began licking my cheek, which weirdly, turned me on. "Rayan, no, Rayan," I murmured, as he kept licking me. I pushed him off of me, as my eyes opened. "Princess, get off of me." I laughed, as I pushed my Bichon off of me. 

I stood up looking at the clock on my white stove. 9:15 PM. "Did I really sleep that long?" The high school reunion paper remained on my kitchen table, as I reread over it.

Atleast I still have a week.

"I want you, Alex." I began giving her neck kisses, as my whole body began shaking. "Rayan," I heard a voice call as I opened my eyes. "Rayan, you said you were gonna take a nap and then teach me how to make those pancakes. You haven't woke up since this morning!" Kay Kay whined, as I rubbed eyes, together, unsettling from my very comfortable nap.

"I promise I'll teach you how to make pancakes tomorrow morning. But look, it's 9'o clock at night, you're bored, and I'm bored. How about a quick stop to..." "DAVE AND BUSTERS!" We both shouted, as she quickly ran upstairs beginning to get ready. 

In 15 minutes, both me and her were ready to leave. "You're not eating that in my car, Kay Kay." She whined, as she fit the rest of the honey bun in her mouth, giving me the wrapper. I took it outside to the trash can, seeing that the high school reunion invitation was still in there separated into two's. I pulled both of the pieces out, putting them in the back pocket of my jeans. 

Atleast I still have a week.
