Best Friend with The Player

Chapter 18

Ellie's POV

" Wow!" Gabe says " you look- uhh-you-umm"

" Gabe if I look that bad just tell me." I chuckle

" NO!" He shouts "I-uhh-I mean no. You look stunning." He smiles

" thanks!" I blush " you don't look to bad yourself."

" why thank you." He fixed his bow tie "Shall we get going?" I nod

Gabe was wearing a simple black and white tuxedo. I had to say he looked hot!
I can't believe we are going on a date. This all seems so odd.

"You okay?" He asks

" yes." I smile

"Good." He grabs my hand and places a kiss on my knuckles.

" Gabe?"

" yes, love?"

" where are we going?"

I mean I know we are going some place nice, why else would we dress this nice. Like we can't go to a burger joint cause that'd be weird.

" a burger place."

I looked at him with wide eyes. It's like he read my mind.

" I'm kidding." He jokes

I let a breath of relief go.

" so where are we going then?"

" it's a surprise."

" Gabeeee." I whined " you know I hate surprises"

" I don't care, it's a surprise."

I cross my arms under my chest. I look out the window.

" don't do that." He says seriously

"What."

" that."

" what?"

" quit poking out your bottom lip."

I smirk and poke it it farther

" I'm serious Ellie. If you do I'm going to have to pull over and kiss you all over."

" you wouldnt dare mess up this makeup." I gasp

" try me.."

I quit doing it and turn the radio on. Greatest Love Story by LANco, was playing.

'" Cause I was gonna be your forever. You were gonna be my wife. We didn't know any better. Didn't have a clue about life
But I was what you wanted, you were what I needed. And we could meet in between. We were gonna be the greatest love story this town had ever seen" Gabe starts to sing.

I hummed along with him.

" are we there yet?" I whined once more

" no."

" I'm tired."

" you've been really tired lately?" His face was filled with concern

" oh, probably just stress. The SATs are coming up." I let out a awkward laugh

I can't tell him, yet. It will crush him. I shouldn't of ever said yes to being his girlfriend. He's gonna hate me once he finds out.

I felt the car stop.

" Gabriel Isaac Wayne  you didn't."

" yes I did." He answers while I step out of the vehicle.

There I stood in front of the most beautiful restaurant ever. It's this old fancy sushi place. When we were kids we'd always say that's where we want are first date to be.
