Chapter 4 The After Show:

" So how was the view this time?"

" The view was amazing but I don't know I kept getting distracted by this one guy" Cadence said glancing up to Chen

Chen turned around as if he was going to go find one of his members who were back in the stadium " Tell me which one, ill make sure they wont distract you from the real guy here" he said jokingly

"You wouldn't want to beat yourself up would you now"

Chen took Cadence's hand and stirred her into a little restaurant and before Cadence could ask anything Chen said " I know I promised you coffee but it's a little late so how about normal food this time and coffee another day"

Which I think was just a smooth way for him to get another date. They sat down at a little table next to a big window; there was barley anyone inside except for 4 other people on the other side of the room minding their own businesses. The restaurant was small and old fashioned; it reminded Cadence of the little truck stop she was at a couple days before. Cadence's stomach was flipping for some reason so she decided on just a milkshake instead of food. Chen ordered one as well, they talked not caring about how much time was going by, soon it was dark and a waiter had to interrupt them to tell them they were closing. Cadence looked up from her empty milkshake glass she was still fiddling with as Chen asked "So where too next"

"What" Cadence said standing up

Chen followed her up, laying money down on the table and placing the cash Cadence left back in her purse secretly "Where to next, I picked the restaurant now u pick somewhere and we'll go, come on anywhere in Atlanta"

"Alright but after this I gotta get back to the hotel its late you know!"

Chen bowed jokingly "sorry forgot you had a curfew princess" and laughed, "ok ok ill get you back soon but where are we going now?

Cadence grabbed his hand and they took off running, a short while later they were at a small park with a sad little swing set and a streetlight illuminating the small play area.

" I normally don't run you know I'm surprised I made it here with out falling or tripping" Cadence got out while catching her self on the swing set. Chen took the swing next to her and they both sat and talked for a long time. They seemed so perfect for each other; talking endlessly with no effort, it was the perfect day. " I've been meaning to ask you if you wanted to …" Chen didn't get to finish his sentence Cadence fell out of the swing and slammed into the grass beneath her and busted out laughing. She didn't bother to stand up she stayed on the ground and Chen joined her and yes it was the whole clique looking at the stars together moment.

Chen stood up after 20 minutes "ok gorgeous I gotta get you to your hotel"

"Next time we should bring a car …"

Chen smirked "so there IS a next time?"

"You did promise me coffee" Cadence said smiling

They started walking back " oh I see how it is, in it just for the addictive caffeine "

"OYYYYII not just for the coffee" Cadence said hitting Chen's arm

They made it back to the hotel, and up to Cadence's room. The hotel worker who had brought Cadence coffee passed by them in the hallway with a smirk and continued his job. Chen leaned up against the doorframe as Cadences opened the door with her key

"Alright gorgeous get some sleep and try to rest you took quite a fall"

"Yeh yeah im fine " Cadence said entering and rolling her eyes

"Ill text you tomorrow" Chen turned away and went back the way he came, this time without anyone side. Cadence closed her door and quite joyfully jumped into bed (might I add that she looked like an overly happy penguin trying to fly ) processing the day she had and how much time she had just spent with him. Seemed like the perfect day huh?
