I hadn't been able take my eyes off Alice from the moment I had seen her today. I hadn't even realized how much I had missed her until she was so close and yet so far in some ways. When she had kissed me I had never wanted it to end. She hadn't tried since and I hadn't dared due to the current circumstances surrounding our relationship. After swimming for awhile we had changed back into the outfits I had delivered for tonight. Mine was a tight white dress that cut off at my mid thigh and exposed more of my cleavage than intended. I leaned back against the car waiting for Alice to join me and checked through my missed calls and texts.

~Hey, did you make it okay?~ Taylor

~Everything okay?~ Taylor

~DID THE PLANE CRASH?!~ Taylor

~I SEE YOU MADE IT AND THAT THE PLANE DIDN'T CRASH. WTF ARE YOU DOING AT AN AMUSEMENT PARK WITHOUT A SINGLE BIT OF SECURITY~ Taylor

~YOUR DATE IS TRENDING ON TWITTER, YOU BETTER NOT STILL BE THERE.~ Taylor

~Bruh if you don't answer Taylor soon she's gonna lose her fucking mind.~ Ben

~ANSWER ME~ Taylor

~Jesus Blair she's driving me nuts just send her a text for the love of god.~ Ben

~Hey, how are things going so far?~ Callie

~ARE YOU KIDDING ME?~ Taylor

~Taylor just called me asking if I knew where you were and if I knew why you weren't answering her~ Callie

~Ben just texted me about it too saying that "his life depends on you answering Taylor" so I'd answer her soon.~ Callie

~I WILL FLY THERE IF I HAVE TO!~ Taylor

I noticed I have 26 missed calls on top of the texts and shook my head as I tried to formulate a reply to Taylor.

~Hey! I'm okay and we're not at the park anymore, go easy on Ben!~ Blair

~Hey Cal, it's going really well and I texted Taylor.~ Blair

~Hey Ben! I hope Taylor didn't kill you yet!~ Blair

"You look stressed." Alice stated causing me to look up and lock eyes with her

My eyes quickly diverted to her body as I admired every inch of her. The dress I had delivered for her was exactly the same as mine but in Black and she admittedly looked far better in it than me.

"Wow." I mumbled out still scanning over her body

She laughed slightly as I opened the door for her and she climbed inside. I closed her door and then walked around to the other side and got in before closing us in together.

"So what had you so stressed?" She questioned glancing over at me as I put my seatbelt on

I handed her my unlocked phone and raised my eyebrows as I watched her read through the texts.

She looked up and couldn't help but laugh "Damn Taylor hasn't changed a bit."

"No she hasn't." I chuckled as I took my phone back

"So where are we headed?" She asked

I shook my head "That's a surprise so buckle up."

We drove about twenty minutes before I pulled into the parking lot of Chez Kandor.

"Holy shit this place looks fancy." She stated her eyes going wide

"It is." I grinned

We walked inside and I told them the name of the reservation before we were led to an upstairs table for two.

"Wow you really out did yourself with this date day." Alice smiled peeking up at me over her menu

"I try." I grinned

"Hello, my name is Christine and I'll be your waitress tonight." A blonde girl smiled as she pulled out a pen and paper"What can I get you girls to drink?"

"We'll take a bottle of the Dom Perignon, red with two glasses please." I stated as I set menu down and looked up at her

Her eyes went wide "H-holy shit, you're Aria BAC."

"I am." I nodded smiling back

"I'm so sorry I'm not supposed to swear, I'm I'll get that for you right away." She stuttered out scribbling something down before disappearing

Alice gave me a pointed look "Why do all girls have to react like that when they see you."

"I don't know," I shrugged "but you're the only girl who can get me to react like that."

A blush filled her cheeks "I see you've still got game."

"Till the day I die." I grinned

"Here you are ladies." The waitress said as she placed the bottle and two glasses in front of us "Have you decided on what you'd like to eat tonight?"

"I'd like the steak and lobster please, medium rare with green beans on the side." I stated with a smile as she took my menu

"And I'll just have Uh, a salad." Alice stuttered out seemingly unprepared to order

"Babe you can get whatever you want." I smiled over at her

She froze for a second and then looked back down at the menu before looking up once again"I'll just have the same as her."

"I'll get these orders in and bring it out as soon as it's ready." Christine smiled taking Alice's menu before disappearing behind the bar

"You were really gonna get a salad?"  I chuckled before opening the wine and pouring us each a glass

"I thought you quit drinking by the way?" Alice questioned

I shrugged slightly "It's a special occasion and I'm only having one glass, the rest is for you."

"A whole bottle?" Alice laughed

I smiled setting the bottle back down on the table "I want you to have fun tonight beautiful. You don't have to drink it but it's there if you want it."

"Well thank you." She grinned taking a sip from her glass

"Anything for you gorgeous." I smirked

"You know Blair, I really won't be upset if you still drink sometimes. I just don't want you to, well, you know what I mean." Alice stuttered out

"I'll stick to one glass for now, I'm driving us home anyway." I smiled

"I just realized that you're literally 18 and she let you order a whole bottle." Alice chuckled

"Hey I turn 19 soon." I grumbled crossing my arms

"You act 9 and the legal age is 21 either way." Alice stated rolling her eyes

After awhile Christine brought our food out to us and it was absolutely to die for. It didn't take long before we were finished and Alice had drank the entire bottle of wine.

"It was an absolute pleasure being your server tonight and it was great to meet both of you in person." Christine smiled as she set the check on the table

Alice went to grab it but I beat her to it and tucked it away at my side.

"Thank you so much and it was nice meeting you as well." I smiled as I watched Alice glare at me

She smiled over at Christine realizing how rude she was being "Thank you, I'm sorry if we were a pain."

"Not at all, I usually have to deal with stuck up rich people so this was a pleasant surprise." She smiled "Have a great night ladies."
