*Half hour later*

Olivia emerged from her room wearing the gown that Elliot had bought for her. She saw Elliot sitting on the couch apparently ready reading a magazine waiting for her. She cleared her throat to make her presence known. When he turned around he was amazed, she looked absolutely gorgeous. The dress hugged every inch of her body and brought out her curves. Elliot was once again speechless for day because of Olivia's beauty. Elliot finally spoke,

"You look incredible",

"thank you, you look great yourself"

Elliot was wearing an all black suit with a red tie.

"Are you ready to go?" He asked.

"yeah."

She responded and they where out the door.

*15 minutes later*

Elliot pulled up in front the restaurant, and both of them got out the car and allowed the valet to park it, and went inside.

When they reached inside a waiter directed them to a table and gave them menus so they can choose an appetizer before the main course. Olivia chose the Greek salad and Elliot did as well. When the waiter left Olivia spoke first,

"Elliot you really did not have to bring me here."

"Olivia, you deserve it."

She sighed and said "ok" there was no use of arguing over the subject.

Elliot looked over Olivia's shoulder and saw a few couples on the dance floor.

"Olivia, would you like to dance?"

"I can't dance,"

" Come on it will be fun",

"okay,"

She got up and Elliot escorted her to the dance floor, a new song had begun to play, "The Light In Your Eyes, By: Leann Rimes

Elliot wrapped his arms around Olivia's waist, and she wrapped hers around his neck and they both began to sway to the music.

Life can take your dreams and turn them upside down
Friends will talk about you when you're not around
Reality can really cut you down to size
But don't ever lose that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes.

People make you promises they'll never keep
Soon you'll know why people say talk is cheap
And life resembles on big compromise
But don't ever lose that light in your eyes,

"I thought you said you can't dance?"

"be quiet before I sit down"

He smiled and continued dancing as he listened to the words of the song intently,

Keep on shining, Keep on smiling
Don't lose faith and don't lose heart
When you're crying
Just keep trying to remind yourself
You're a shining star, Yes you are.

Some where down the line you'll face the judgment day
When the angels look at you, what will you say?
They've got a way of knowing who qualifies
Just let 'em see that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes

Olivia listened to the song carefully, and thought of herself,

Elliot whispered in her ear,

Don't lose the light in your eyes,

She smiled and kept dancing

Keep on shining, Keep on smiling
Don't lose faith and don't lose heart
When you're crying
Just keep trying to remind yourself
You're a shining star, Yes you are.

Don't ever lose that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose...

The song came to an end, and they pulled away and Elliot looked in her eyes and said

"I don't ever want you to lose the light in your eyes"

Olivia smiled at him, but she was not expecting for him to do what he did next, he reached down and pulled her into a passionate kiss that felt like eternity to Olivia, she returned to kiss back with the same passion. They pulled away after a few seconds.

"wow" that's all that came out of Olivia's mouth following a smile,

"I have wanted to do that for a while" Elliot said

"me too" she replied.

Elliot smiled at her and said

"I think we should go back to the table,"

"yeah we should"

He placed his arm around her waist and led her back to the table. They sat there eating there salad with the biggest smiles on there faces.
