Chris pulled up outside a smallish restaurant, it looked a bit More modern than where they were staying, and as they walked inside they were immediately greeted by a young man dressed in smart clothing with a name badge that read 'matt'. "hello how can I help you?" he asked as he approached them at the front of the restaurant whilst holding an important looking clipboard. They could see the place wasn't at all busy, just a few tables taken up, but it was still early. "we'd like a table for two please," chris asked, their arms were now interlocked. "well as you can see we're not very busy so you've got a lot of options, how about the one by the window over there?" he said pointing in the direction toward the back of the restuarant, the table was almost isolated from the rest but it looked cosy, it was situated right by the fire which was on. "yes that looks lovely, thank you" chris replied as they were soon directed to the table. "would you like to order a drink for now? I'll be back with a menu in a second""yes please I'll just have a diet coke for the moment please""and the same for me thanks" "so where did you find out about this place then" Karen said as they held hands across the table. "like I said, I know people..." he said leaning over to kiss her."ok here's your menu for this evening and two diet cokes for you both..." matt said as he placed the two drinks in tall glasses into the middle of their small table, and passed them both a menu, which was printed on parchment paper and written in a scrolly font. "just call when youre ready to make your orders" he said and then walked away. "hmmm what are you having baby" chris mused over the menu carefully."I don't know...I'm thinking the steak and kidney pie.."

Chris called the waiter over about 10 minutes later after a long musing over the varied menu."have you made your decisions now" "yes please I'll have the steak and kidney pie""and I'll have the rump steak please... And a glass of red wine for the lady, whatever you recommend... Thank you""thank you... It'll be about. 40 minute wait I hope you dont mind we seemed to have filled up a bit and short of staff tonight" he explained apologetically."oh no worries at all, honestly it's fine" and with that he walked away the order tightly in his hand. "this is amazing..." Karen said again, she couldn't get over it."I know you keep saying it baby, and you're very welcome you know, what do you say we come back here when dancing on ice has finished eh..." "I'd like that a lot" she admitted."well there you go then... It's a date, I promise" he said leaning over the table to kiss karen. They chatted while they waiting for the food, getting all romantic together, their hands still held together across the table, and occasionally they'd take a few sips of their diet cokes in the long glasses, with specially requested straws. "I love you so so much baby girl do you know that" chris said as they kissed intesly. Karen kicked off her shoes under the table and her beautiful slender feet lifted into the air, she wandered her feet up and down his thigh, playing happily and cheekily."sorry for interrupting you..." the waiter had arrived with their food, clearing his throat subtly. "ooh,erm, I'm sorry" chris said slowly breaking off the kiss, and they both awkwardly turned around to stare at the waiter who was also looking a little awkward. "thanks ever so much" Karen said blushing slightly and taking the plate gladly, the smell of the wonderful food making them both suddenly hungry. "thank you" chris said kindly taking his plate and they both watched the waiter walk away."chris this is delicious" Karen said with her mouth watering, and chris agreeing.

The dinner was beautiful; they passed on dessert though, between them they had drunk the whole bottle of wine of the finest kind, about 3 medium sized glasses each. "Chris I think you've drank far too much you've gotta drive back" Karen said taking the last gulp of her wine and looking at the bottle in front of her, not quite believing it was totally empty already."Oh I'll be fine don't worry we've only got to go down the road haven't we, it'll be fine" he reassured her, the wine hadn't gone to his head yet so it probably be safe to drive. "can we have a bill please" Chris asked the waiter beckoning him over. "yes here you go" he said 5 minutes later placing the bill on the table, with two little mints on the side which Karen took one of. "Make sure you leave a tip" Karen reminded him as Chris put some cash on the little plate and then took his mint as well. He didn't even like them but he always took them just for the sake of them being there. "okay are you ready to go babe?" Chris said standing up behind his chair and putting his coat on, then taking Karen's coat off the back of the chair whilst she stood up, then proceeded to drape it over her shoulders, a true gentleman on a date, thought Karen. "Yep, quick before all that alcohol goes to your head, i know what you're like," Karen said chuckling. "Okay okay" he said hurrying her to exit and ushering her towards the car. They were back to the house in about two minutes, it didn't take them long at all, and they both took their coats and shoes off and sat in front of the warm open fire again, switching the television on to see what was on - there wasn't much so they just stuck to the music channel Magic, and were much more interested in kissing and pleasuring each other both giggling like mad, but still having lots of fun. "Can we move it to the bedroom pretty please..." Chris said playfully in between kissing his girlfriend."Sure baby, i love you" And then he carried Karen up the stairs again, putting out the fire first this time, he'd a feeling they wouldn't be back downstairs till the morning. He laid her down on the bed and laid himself down next to Karen, stroking the side of her smooth face, placing kisses down her neck and chest. His hands wondered over her body over the chiffon fabric of her beautiful dress, resisting the temptation to rip it off her glowing body. "i love you so, so much" he declared proudly, still giving her tender kisses as she laid and stared at him fondly, giving him the odd kiss back. "i love you too..." "you are so so amazing"
