Luke POV:

Chapter 11: Dinner For Two Pt. 1

I was getting ready for my date with Bridget when my phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Luke? Where the hell are you?"

"Kenny, look I needed a break so I took one. I promise I'll be back with a finished album. Just chill okay?"

"Luke, you can't just leave like that! The director for the movie wanted to meet with you to figure out dates that you can shoot! When we got back to the studio you were gone! What the hell were you thinking?!"

"I told you, I was thinking I needed a break! So let me have a break!" I yelled into the phone and hung up on him. Leo open the door and walked in.

"Dude, who you yelling at?" He asked going across the room to sit on my bed.

"Kenny. He's pissing me off."

"Kenny? Your manager? Isn't he suppose to do everything he can to make you happy?"

"No, not really. That's usually just a bonus."

"What was he pissing you off about?"

"The album, wondering where I am." I started to tie my tie. Frustration makes that kind of hard, you know.

"Did you tell him you needed a break?"

"No, I just told him I was done and won't do another album or movie." I told him sarcastically.

"Okay, so you told him that you needed a break. Why did he flip out, then?"

"Because I just left without telling him where I was going. And the director for the movie wanted to meet with me to talk about the movie. What's bad is he just realized that I was gone. All he thinks about is his paycheck. He's pissing me off." I told him giving up on my tie, so I threw it down.

"Hey man, chill. Just think about your date tonight. You know the one you're having with Bridget?" He said as he grabbed my tie. "Just let me help with this. I actually know how to work one." He joked as he finished tying my tie.

"Man, I bet if you just walked in here while you were doing that it'd look real weird." I told him. He shrugged and walked over to my bed again and sat down.

"You bet that looked real weird." A voice said. I turned to see that Drake had walked in.

"Told ya." I said and started laughing. Leo and Drake joined a little after.

"So...you ready for your date?" Drake asked.

"Yeah. What time is it?"

"It's seven and are you sure you are ready?"

"Yes and I got to go get Bridget." I said as I ran out the door. Drake ran after me.

"Hey! Before you go you probably want to know something." He said. I stopped and turned around.

"What do I want to know, Drake. I'm already late!" I said grabbing my jacket and keys.

"Man, you need shoes!" I looked down at my feet. They only had the socks on them.

"Crap!" I yelled as I ran back through the hall to my room and found Leo still lying on my bed. I shook my head and grabbed my shoes out of the closet. Going back down the hall they yelled at me.

"Be nice to that girl!"

I laughed and walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the lobby. I put my shoes and jacket on as the elevator went down. When the doors opened I was finally ready and walked out. Walking to the doors I saw Bridget standing there talking to one of the employes. She turned her head and smiled when she noticed I was coming. Man, she looked beautiful. I told her to dress nice and she dressed nice. In a blue strapless dress and black converse. The blue in the dress brought out her eyes even more than they already were. Her hair was down and curled. By the time I got to her I couldn't breathe.

"Y-you l-look...Wow." I tried to say. I didn't sound to cool just then.

Man, keep it together! She's just a girl. A girl I can't get out of my head but just a girl. Oh, who am I kidding. She's not just a girl.

"Uh. Thanks I think." She said and started laughing. I joined in with her.

"Ha ha. Yeah. It was a complement. Or I tried to make it one. You look beautiful." I told her. She blushed.

"Thanks." She said smiling. SHe has a beautiful smile. A very beautiful smile. I grabbed her hand and walked to Leo's car.

"Let's go," I opened the passenger door for her, "My lady." She laughing said thank you and got in the car. I smiled knowing that what I just did made her laugh. Leo always tells me that I'm not funny.

Ha! Take that Leo. I am funny! Alright. Time to be cool. Let's go. Date time.
