Scott and Wanda walked towards Scott's car, which was a silver jeep. Scott reached out and took Wanda's hand in his as they walked towards the car but soon had to let go when Scott reached into his pocket for the car keys and opened the door. Scott held open the door for Wanda who climbed in and thanked Scott.
Scott got into the driver 's seat, placed the key into the ignition, started the car, buckled his seat belt, put the gear stick into drive, looked in his mirrors and left Wanda's apartment, and drove to the restaurant.
The drive there was rather quiet and Scott took those quiet moments to glance at Wanda who was looking out through the window and was oblivious that Scott was looking at her. Scott reached out and took Wanda's hand in his and rested them by the hand break and Wanda turned from looking out the window and smiled at Scott and held on to Scott's hand and Scott gave Wanda one of his dazzling smiles.
Scott pulled the car to a stop when he parked , Scott let go of Wanda's hand and undid his seat belt and got out of the car and walked round to Wanda's side of the car and opened the door for her and he even extended his had to help her out of the car.
"I hope you like Italian?" Scott said locking his car and took Wanda's hand in his own and they walked to the restaurant only to see a large line of people waiting outside to go in.
"I think we might be waiting a while," Wanda said seeing the large line.
Scott smirked hoping reserving a table would score him points with Wanda.
"Hey, I have a table for 2 for tonight under Scott " Scott asked greeting the door man warmly only realizing it was his good friend Sam.
"Sam, how the hell are you?" Scott said shaking his good friends hand.
"Scott good to see you, the usual Table for 1?" Scott shook his head "I have someone special with me tonight, table for 2 " Sam looked over at Wanda and smiled " Of course come this way" Sam said gesturing for them to follow which they did and they were now inside and being led to a nice table by the window looking out at the fantastic view of the town all lit up.
"Thanks Sam" Scott said placing his hand on his shoulder.
"No, problem, I will be back in a few minutes" Sam said cheerfully before he walked away.
"Wow, how this place is lovely" Wanda said looking round at the rather packed restaurant.
Scott pulled out Wanda's chair, Wanda sat down, and Scott tucked the chair back under the table as a true gentle man would.
"This place must cost a fortune, you didn't need to bring me to a place as posh as this," Wanda said placing her bag on the chair.
"I wouldn't take you anywhere else this is the best Italian food in New York"
"How did you get us a table that quick, I mean people were queuing to get in here?" Wanda said glancing out the window at the group of people queuing to get in.
"I come here all the time and well I got to know Sam the owner quite well and he's a good friend," Scott said smiling.
"Well I love it thank you," Wanda said smiling at the true authentic Italian decor.
"Any drinks for you?" Sam asked walking back over to Wanda and Scott.
"Could I have a ... Vodka and Lime soda please," Wanda asked
"Of course you can and Scott?"
"I will have a beer please Sam "Scott said smiling.
They both picked up their menus and looked at all the appetizing food.
"Fancy sharing a starter?" Scott asked putting his menu down on the table.
"Ok sure, but promise you won't laugh at me when I say I would like garlic bread" Wanda said hiding behind her menu.
"Why would I laugh at you for ordering garlic bread" Scott chuckled and shook his head in confusion.
"I know Garlic bread is pathetic but, I love it" Wanda chuckled.
"Garlic bread it is for my lady" they went back to looking at the menu.
"Here you go guys, Vodka Lime soda and One Beer" Sam said placing the drinks in front of them "have you both decided what you would like?" Sam reached over and lit the two little candles in the middle of the table.
"I have, Wanda?" Scott asked closing his menu.
"Yeah I think so..." Wanda said not sounding too sure.
"Ok, could we get garlic bread to share but could you possibly throw in a few extra" Scott asked politely and Sam nodded "Of course"
"I would like for my main the large steak, Medium rare please Sam, with pepper corn source"
"Ok" Sam said not bothering to write it all down "And for the lovely lady?"
"I would love the roast chicken pasta in the tomato source please"
"Of course" Wanda handed Sam the menu and Sam thanked her before he walked away leaving them alone again.
"Wanda, I have something I want to say" Wanda took a sip of her drink.
"What is it Wanda?" Scott asked concerned.
"What, oh no it's nothing bad" Wanda said reasurring Scott who let out a sigh of relief.
"I just wanted to that I'm sorry if I keep pressuring you to move in with me" Wanda said looking down at her hands.
"I want to move in with you at some point but I just think it's a bit to soon and I didn't mean to upset you" Scott said taking a sip of beer.
"I love you Scott" Abby quietly and Scott reach out and place hand on top of Wanda's.
"I love you too Wanda " Scott said giving her hand a small squeeze.
Sam brought over the garlic bread and placed it in the middle of the table and Wanda picked up a slice and took a bite.
"This is so good"
"See I told you the food is good here"Scott said chuckling
Half an hour later their main food arrived and they both tucked in straight way.
"This awesome, you have to try this" Wanda said putting some of the food on the fork and fed Scott the food.
"You're right, it's delicious, you have got to try this steak its crazy good," Scott said cutting small piece and fed Wanda the piece of Steak.
"Wow that's delicious"
Once they had finished their meals, Sam took them away and left Wanda and Scott alone once again.
"So, what you want to happen with us after tonight?" Scott asked
"I don't know, do you?" Wanda asked taking a sip of her drink.
"I was hoping we could go steady for real this time" Scott shrugged and Wanda smiled and looked into those deep blue eyes that she was now falling in love with.
"Yes" Wanda said blushing slightly
"You won't regret this Wand?" Wanda loved how Scott called her Wand it made her heart skip a beat.
"I'm so glad I met you Scott" they both smiled and Scott reached out and took Wanda's hand in his own.
"You know I am rather excited about us making a life together," Scott said rubbing his thumb over the top of Wanda's hand in a soothing away. Wanda was not sure how to answer Scott's last question so she did not say anything not wanting to spoil the moment.
They did not fancy a desert so they paid the bill and thanked Sam who gave Scott a good discount off the bill. Scott opened the door for Wanda who shivered the minute she stepped outside when the cold air hit her. Scott noticed Wanda shiver so; he took of his suite jacket and wrapped it around Wanda's shoulders.
" Thank you" Wanda said sighing from the warmth of Scott's jacket.
"No problem, my lady" Scott said seeing that the jacket really was not keeping Wanda warm so he opened his arms and wrapped them around Wanda who snuggled into his embrace and they walked along the pretty street all lit up brightly.
