His heart was racing as he sat in his car, the smooth leather of the car seat against his back. He rested his head on the steering wheel. He had to be crazy to be doing this; anyone would tell him so and be completely right. So why exactly was he doing this when he knew everything would and could be at steak?

He himself not even knew the answer to that endlessly quizzical question. He was getting himself into one hell of a mess and he knew that he wouldn't be able to get out of it as soon as he got into it. He would already be in too deep.

"Andrew this place is absolutely stunning!" Serena squealed as they were seated.

Andrew smiled back at her admiring her beauty. He could tell just from looking at her that she had tried hard to pull this off and that she had help from her friends, the girls.

Serena sat there looking like a delicacy that could never be touched or obtained. She was a shoe-string strap pink dress that hung down low enough at the front for him to see enough of what he liked without her being indecently exposed. Her dress went down to her knees, while her feet where dressed in silver strapped heels. How she made him quiver.

Her hair was done in a bun that looked as if Mina had created it. Soft curls of loose hair fell down the sides of her face, hardly anywhere near the length of her true hair.

She'd had her eye lashes curled and looked as if every inch of hair on her body had been plucked, waxed and other. She was perfect.

"Only the best for you" he purred as he leaned over the table, taking her hand and lightly kissing it with his lips. He could feel Serena's heat rise as he did this. She was his; there was no doubt about that.

Serena blushed immensely as this romantic gesture but somehow felt uneasy about the whole occasion.

'Just what is on Andrew's mind?'

"You know Serena, I've been attracted to you for years" Andrew said with a slight grin on his face. "And I didn't just ask you out to get revenge on Darien for the way he treats you. I also asked you out because I couldn't contain my feelings for you any longer"

Stunned at first, Serena managed to choke out some words, any words before Andrew began to think that perhaps she didn't feel the same way. "Wow, that's…that's pretty confronting" she said.

Andrew laughed at her remembering just how young she really was and that she'd probably never had a boy or a man confess his true feelings towards her.

A waiter approached them and cleared his throat loudly, making both Serena and Andrew avert their gazes and look up to the man that stood at their table. Serena gasped at the sight of them. Apart from looking deadly gorgeous in a tuxedo here stood an unwelcome man that she did not expect to see.

"Daren" she grumbled loudly enough for only her table to hear her. "What on earth are you doing here!?"

Andrew looked up at his best friend, the same question spread across his face. They both wanted answers and they wanted them now.

"Just looking around for a new job" Darien lied. "I'm on a trial here tonight, so wish me luck" he said winking.

Andrew laughed at his best friend and shook his hand. All Serena could do was glare at Darien and assume the worst. Something wasn't right and she was going to get to the bottom of it.

"So what can I get you two friends tonight?" Darien asked still smiling as he pulled out a note pad and pen.

Just as Andrew was about to order Serena cut in. "We're not here as friends Darien. Andrew and I are here together on a date. A very romantic D-A-T-E!"

Darien blushed but tried not to show it. Had he really been that obvious?

Trying to ignore Serena's deadly gaze, Darien scribbled down all of the courses that Andrew ordered onto a piece of paper on the note pad.

"See you guys soon" the he said as he whisked himself away, rushing between tables and back towards the kitchen. Andrew turned his attention back to Serena who was lost in confusion.

He smiled at his date as he leaned forward and said softly. "Serena, you have the most beautiful eyes that I've ever seen"

She blushed slightly. "Oh Andrew, you don't really mean that"

Andrew shook his head as to reassure her. "No I do, and I need you to believe me. And I need to tell you something else" he said as he leaned closer.

'Oh my god, I can't believe this is happening!' Serena's mind cried as she leaned closer to hear Andrews's words. Their eyes were locked on each others, their gaze so intense their hearts began to beat faster.

"You look stunning tonight." He said breathlessly.

Serena felt as if she was going to melt, as Andrew moved that inch closer, his lips almost touching hers.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Darien watched from behind a corner as he saw Andrew lean in towards Serena. He couldn't let this happen. He couldn't let them kiss. But how was he to stop them, he couldn't just barge over there.

Darien quickly looked around for something, anything that he could use to his advantage. His eyes lit up as he saw it. The fire alarm.
