"My Invitation"
"Hi, you get home ok" he said trying to sound enthaused.
"Yeah, my dad's still asleep" she said reaching into her cupboard for the Raisin Bran box. "So I have to go in at noon today but i get off early, and I figured since you did go through so much trouble letting me crash at your place..." she was interrupted.
"No trouble at all," his face began to light up all over again. **Will was right about that one thing** he thought, looking at the reflection of the glass lamp on his dresser, noticing his glow.
"Well either way, i wanna thank you so i had this idea...you wanna go for dinner tonight, my treat?" she asked curiously.
"How about my treat?" he replied as a smile curved his lips.
"Ah Ah Ah, see Scout you already treated me, my injury i mean..and i already KNOW you have money so just humor me." she finished pouring the milk into her bowl.
"Alright, your treat, but i get to pick the place," he raised an eyebrow.
"Deal, i'll call you later, i think i just heard my dad step outta bed," she said quickly.
"Ok, later then...bye Bella."
"Bye Scout." He clicked his phone closed and got up. Thoughts raced through his head about the night ahead, the restaurant he would pick, what he would wear and what she would wear. His thoughts then hit a harsh stop, remembering that he shouldn't be expecting anything from this. After all, it was just dinner...right? At this point he reallly didn't care, he wanted this evening to be perfect just to give into the hopes that maybe something would happen between them. Scout glanced at his black digital watch, which read "10:30am" and then proceeded out of his dorm room to go scout (pun intended) out the restaurant for the evening ahead. He was lucky, his dad had decided to pay for half for a car and Scout had finally saved enough to continue putting down payments. He russeled with his keys and hit the small alarm box off before getting in his forest green Jeep, closing the door behind him he powered up the engine and began driving, he rode down the small Rawley path and turned onto the main road. The sun beamed in his eyes a bit so he pulled down his visor glancing from side to side at all the passing diners and stores. Reaching the end of the main road he turned off onto Runners Lane where a big sign with hot pink letter blarred "GRAND OPENING...NEXT LEFT" he took this as a sign and kept going, making a left as stated, what he saw after that was pure perfection. **This is it** he thought as yet another grin came over his face.
