Adrian
Hey!

"She's not replying!" I yelled, frustrated.

"Give her some time. She'll definitely reply," he smooth talked.

29 minutes later....

"This is hopeless!" I blurted.

Bella
Hi

"Told you!" he nudged my shoulder with a wink and I just rolled my eyes.

"What's his name?" he asked as he stared at the text message.

"Cameron!" I replied hastily.

"This should be good!" he smirked.

Adrian
Its Cameron.

Bella
Didn't realize that. A different number?

Adrian
Yeah. Any plans today?

Bella
Not really

Adrian
What about breakfast?

Bella
Already had breakfast.

Adrian
Come on, a little date? Please?

"What the hell, man! That sounds way too cheesy. No one's gonna buy that!" I yelled at him.

Bella
Well, okay. Text me the address.

"Then we've got a no one on our case," he replied with a smile.

"Whatever!"

Adrian
Will do. Be seeing you in a while.

"And that, my bro, is how you talk to a lady," he shot proudly and flipped the phone on the bed, resting on it.

"Right! Its the first time in history," I reminded.

"At least I have a history you'll never have," he fired.

"What did you say?" I yelled and raised my fist at him.

"Nothing, boss," he replied hastily.

"Get ready. We'll be going to the restaurant in a bit," I ordered and rummaged my closet for something.

"Okay. Okay,"

"And get it ready. The reservation should be explicit. Pay for the whole day if you can. I don't want anybody in the restaurant. Just the food. No people, no nothing,"

"Ah yai, boss!"

"Do you see her anywhere?" Adrian asked in the device hidden between his shirt buttons.

"Yeah. She just got in. Better don't mess this up!" I warned.

"Yeah, yeah. Like you could do better,"

"What did you say?"

"Shut up. I think she's here,"

"Hello, Cameron," she said as she sat on the chair.

"Hi. Nice to see you once again," Adrian replied.

"Yeah. I must say, those sunglasses by this time of the day is seriously - awkward,"

"I'm feeling better than ever," he replied clumsily and I just hissed.

"So, what are we ordering?" she asked as she grabbed the menu.

"Anything,"

"Okay. You order. I'm not hungry" she returned the menu and stared.

"Okay, let's just talk. Okay?"
