Eden

~Emblem City, Antarctica~

"Hello Sarah, table for two." I tell the hostess while twisting my bracelet Tess gave me to help me relax while Daniel was in the hospital those five months.

"Yes right this way Eden." Sarah says leading me to a cozy corner of the restaurant.

"Is Day going to be coming soon? Or do you want me to bring your drinks now?" She asks while glancing around excitedly. Rolling my eyes in my head, I reply "Oh no, Daniel won't be accompanying me tonight. But could you please bring me a bottle of your 1979 Chono Reserva and the menus please?"

"Yes they'll be on their way Eden." She says while walking away a little dejectedly. I'm used to it by now but every time someone finds out Daniel and I are related they start acting all fake and like they're interested which is why I don't like dating anyone, because I never know whether they want to go out with me because I'm Daniels brother, or simply to just get close to Daniel. Don't get me wrong I love my brother but his fans are what I can't stand. That is also why I like Sarah because even though she's just as starstruck about Daniel, she also seems to take a real interest in what I have to say and the inventions I create. Daniel teases me and says that, that's because she's has a crush on me, but I know that's not possible.

"Here you go , Carmenéne straight from Chile. Enjoy your wine." Sarah says with a wink as she pushes her strawberry blonde bangs out of her eyes. Yeah, nope not a chance she's interested, besides she's like a older sister to me.

"Hey um, Eden?" A soft voice startles me out of my thoughts. Turning around I come face to face with a gorgeous curly haired brunette with bow shaped lips and the most dazzling green eyes I've ever seen. To prevent further looking like a gape mouthed idiot I stand up and offer her a seat.

"Thank you. I was a little nervous coming here because I wasn't sure if my going on a date with the Eden Wing was real or not." She says with a adorable pink blush.

"I mean, you're a genius! Those insulated snow boots that you invented when you were 15 that allowed you to trek across snow almost as if you were gliding was just-"

Cutting her off with my laughter and staring at me curiously I say

"I'm sorry but you just don't know how nervous I was. I mean usually people want to hang out or date me because of who my brother is but you want to because of me, and my brain." I state grinning.

"Oh. Haha well when you put it that way it makes it look like your brain is all I'm after." She says grinning back.

"Hello my names Sarah and I'll be your waitress tonight. Do you have your orders ready or would you like another couple minutes?" Glancing at Sarah I nod my head and say

"Yes I'll have the usual and Miss… I'm sorry I don't think I caught your name." I apologize to my date blushing a little. Smiling at me in response she says

"Frankie, and I'll have the Chicken Fettuccine."

Frankie…for some reason that name sounds familiar.

"Okay it'll be on the way, oh and Eden?" Looking back up at Sarah questioningly she says "Later on you'll tell me more about your newest invention yes?" Then glancing at Frankie and smirking she turns away without waiting for an answer.

"Well that was certainly awkward. Is she one of your ex's?" Frankie inquires with a raise of her eyebrows.

"Haha, no Sarah's just a friend, she's one of the few who doesn't just see Daniel when she looks at me." I reply back.

Her eyes go wide when I mention Daniels name.

"No way you're the little brother of Day?" She squeaks out and glances around as if Daniel will pop out from behind the potted plants. (A/N I know she said "The Eden Wing" but in this story she never used Days real name let alone his last name so she didn't put the pieces together yet.) Well I guess I shouldn't be surprised, Daniel maybe you should've went on this date instead. Even though she started acting like this I can't help but find myself drawn to her. Her adorable reactions and the way she twirls her hair when she's thinking. Realizing I haven't replied yet I quickly answer her expectant eyes.

"Yeah, Day. He's my older brother." Something makes me wonder why she reacted like that though. "Where did you say you were from?"

"I came to Antarctica last week from the Republic. I'm just researching a few things and then I'll return back in a month." Frankie says. The Republic…

"Did you…Do you know Daniel? " I question starting to come up with why she looks familiar.

"Umm…sort of." She says glancing up at me and then back down to where she's rubbing her wrist. It looks like she has a tattoo of a flag on her wrist. A Patriot flag?

"Chicken Fettuccine and Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes with a side of potatoes skins and a baked potato with everything on it. Is that all or did you need anything else? Maybe a to-go box for you Miss?" Sarah says giving us both a break from that dangerous topic. Frankie glances at me raising her eyebrows with laughter in her eyes and replies

"No thank you I think we're fine."

"I had fun tonight. You must really love potatoes huh?" Frankie says as we walk out the restaurant together a little while later.

"Mmm yes you could tell?" I joke back.

"I swear if I didn't know any better I'd think you were Irish." Laughing she twirls and hooks her arm through mines.

"Yeah? Me too, I have to be honest with you I didn't really expect a lot because I'm use to people only going after Daniel and they'll use me to do that. But you, your different from anyone I've met before." Hesitating on her front steps I turn towards her and step closer.

"You know you seem like a different person than I was expecting too. I figured you'd be just as cocky as your brother." Frankie says rolling her eyes and laughing. As she says that I take another step closer and suddenly were kissing. She sucks in her breath and tenses up at first but gradually she starts kissing me back and parts her lips giving me better access. It's unlike anything I've ever experienced. Too soon were pulling apart and I take a step back trying to catch my breath.

"Wow." She whispers looking at me a little dazed. Her lips swollen from our kiss.

Laughing I grin back. "Wows right, you really are something else. Maybe next time it'll be better timing though cause I just realized how late its gotten. Can I call you?" I ask a bit nervous she might reject me.

"Yeah of course here let me see your phone." I hand my phone over to her still reeling at the surrealness of this situation.

"Okay here you go, and good night Eden." Frankie says giving me a quick kiss on my cheek and turning around towards her front door.

"Good night Frankie." I say after her door already closed. Turning around I head back towards the house. Well Daniel, I gotta say I'm glad you told me what to do on this date cause otherwise I would've blown it after I saw her face. Grinning like a idiot and rubbing my lips I make my way slowly towards home.

Annnnd Eden got his first crush. I know I know you thought I was talking about Tess when I said former ex-patriot but I figured Tess was to old for him ;) Don't worry I have plans for Tess that may involve Pascao. Next chapter will be when "Night" gets into a little trouble with the Antarctican government and June hears about it. Also Im stuck on how to begin Chapter 4 any suggestions will be appreciated.

Until next time!
