"Not now." He said. "Tomorrow."
"Why?" I whined.
"Because we have a date."
I smiled. I almost forgot. Almost.
We went outside and started walking. It was hot, so I took off my jacket of and held it. Then suddenly, cameras swarmed around us like a bunch of bees. We pushed our way through the crowd and he ran into an alley. I had no idea where we were going; I was trusting Paolo on this one.
And in the alley, was Paolo's motorcycle!
"Get on!" He said.
I had already tried dating someone famous, Frankie, and it didn't work. I was determined to make it work this time, so I got on, even though I felt a little sick.
We drove all over the city, and then he stopped at a building that looked really ancient.
I took off my helmet and got off. I climbed up the step, Paolo right behind me. Then we were at the top of the stone building. The only ones there. You could see an amazing view of Rome. It was so romantic!
"Wow. This is an amazing place."
"Well, I wanted to bring you here." He looked deeply into my eyes again. "You know, there's a party tonight. I was invited, and I was hoping you'd be my guest."
I batted my eyelashes at him. "Maybe." I said playfully.
He moved closer to me. "Please?" He asked with his sweet accent.
"Uh..."
"Bring four people that you know, so I won't be the only one. Just come!"
Animated Lizzie: Oh, I will.
I smiled. "Okay." I said. "Four people."
He nodded. "Four people. That's it. No more."
I thought of who I would invite. Gordo, Danny, Kate... KATE? What? Well, she was being nice lately, so... maybe. Who would be the fourth person? Brooke? I decided that was it.
"See you there...I mean, here." I said.
"You're not getting rid of me that easily, Lizzie." He rolled his eyes. "I'll pick you up at 7 on my motorcycle."
I nodded.
"So, is this a date?" I asked all of a sudden, fearing the answer.
"Well, I'd say so. The wind in our hair, the sun shining, alone..."
I cut him off. "Does that make us boyfriend and girlfriend?" I whispered.
He smiled. "Yeah, I guess it does."
Animated Lizzie: He likes me! He really, really likes me!
"Good."
"Why?" I whined.
"Because we have a date."
