Ryan's POV
"So where is this place Calleigh?" I ask her
"You'll see." she said with one of her charming smiles, I cant help but drag my eyes down her body, for what seems like the millionth time tonight. She is just so beautiful. That dress fits her so well and shows her curves in the just the right way. Its mind blowing.
"Why are you still staring at me?" she asks me
"Because you're beautiful"
I noticed that she blushes at that, and she shifts her self in her seat.
"Thank you. Here we are"
"That's an interesting name"
'the saxophone' i've never heard of a club being named after an instrument, what next, are all the Irish pubs in New York going to be named 'the fiddle'?
I open the door to the club for her, and as soon as I walk in I hear the music...
i you give your hand to me
And then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me /i
I've never really been big on jazz, but if she likes it, I love it. No, not jazz, her, I love her
We are seated, and we look at the menus. Our waitress comes by and I order a red wine, and she orders a white Russian
"So" she says
"So" I echo, "I didn't know you like jazz"
"I do. I like all kinds of music. Especially stuff I can play on the piano."
"I didn't know you played piano" I say
"Yea, how about you, do you play anything?"
"Yea, I play cello, drums, and bass...both upright and guitar
i no you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
Oh I am just a friend
That all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me /i
Wow this song really says how I felt before tonight
i I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy
I let my chance go by
A chance that you might love me too /i
"Do you know who sings this?" she asked me
"Uh, I think its Michael Buble'?"
"Wait you just said you never really listened to jazz, I'm sorry, how did you know who it is?"
"My friend, Zack listens to jazz. I'm more of a punk rock guy, but I don't exclude anything. In our opinion, a good song is a good song, whether its blue grass or death metal, it's a good song"
"I like that philosophy" she says with a chuckle
"Do you want to dance?" I say
"Umm, i'm not really a dancer" she says, as I take her hand
"That's ok. I can teach you" I say smiling
"You dance?" she says, returning the smile
"My friend Amy, and her mom, bribed about seven of us, four guys and three girls, to take lessons. So I know just about everything from a standard waltz to the tango"
"Wow I'm impressed. What did she bribe you with?"
"Free food" I stated
"Of course" she says starting to laugh
I lead her around the dance floor, she only stepped on my foot once, and when she did she blushed and tripped, but I covered it by dipping her.
in the car
"I had a lot of fun, Ryan"
"Yea I did too. Id like to do that again"
"Hey umm, today, alexx told me that when you broke the beaker, you were thinking about me?" se said, but it was more of a question than a statement
"Yea. Umm, DC told me that you were talking to your niece about me."
"How did he know that?"
"Oh, well, he had to retrieve something from the data bases for Eric, and he said your IM popped up by accident."
"Why do I have the feeling that everyone wanted us to start dating?"
"He told me that Eric, Alexx, Val, and he himself were behind it."
"Yea, Alexx told me that she and Eric have been telling H to put us together"
"Doesn't surprise me"
"Yea me neither"
We pulled up to her flat
"Umm, Ryan would you like some coffee?" she asked hesitantly
"Sure, id like that a lot" I replied with a small smile
