My greatest thanks to .RenabelleGal. for editing (oh, and people? You should like totally read her cov story, For Better Or Worse, so much better than mine) …blah, blah, blah, ok. R and R!

Caleb took a few deep breaths before knocking on her door.

"Coming!" a voice called.

The door was opened to a beautiful sight. Caleb couldn't help but stare. Regina had donned a skin-tight black dress and she barely had on any make-up, her natural beauty was enough to take any guy's breath away. Currently, it was Caleb's breath that was being taken away.

"You look… great," was all he could stammer out.

"Am I over dressed?" she replied worriedly.

"No, you look perfect." Caleb said with a small smile.

Walking to the car, they, unfortunately, met the other Sons of Ipswich.

"Oh no," Caleb moaned.

"What the fuck," was what came out of Reid's mouth when he caught sight of Regina. "How come you never wore outfits like that when we were dating?" he complained with a frown.

"We were NEVER dating, you idiot." Regina said with great annoyance.

"Guys," Caleb, said, aware that Pogue and Tyler were both too, staring at Regina with interest, though Pogue with less keenness than Tyler. "We got to go if we want to make the reservation."

And staring fixedly at the ground, Caleb grabbed hold of Regina's elbow and steered her into his car.

It was not before they were at the entrance to the restaurant that someone had broken the silence. And that someone happened to be a passing waiter whose plate had fallen off his tray.

The soft sound of tinkling was the only thing that told them the plate had broken, or at least cracked badly. The restaurant was rather dimly lit and it was hard to see. The floor was also thickly carpeted, muffling many sounds.

Regina reacted the fastest and bent down to pick up the broken pieces. But when she stood up again, it was a plate that she had in her hands, not pieces of glass. Caleb's eyebrows shot up - he could swear he heard the glass break.

Passing the plate back to the waiter, she said, "I'm starving, what do you recommend?"

Still a little suspicious, he said, "The steaks are good."

--

After a satisfying dinner of, well, steak, Caleb took her out to the restaurant's garden for a moonlit stroll. The stars were twinkling and the moon was bright that night, its silver rays lighting their way.

"Caleb," she said softly.

"Hmm?" Caleb couldn't think properly as she had slipped her fingers through his.

"Thanks, it's been a great night. A really good one," she said, placing her head gently on his shoulder.

His heart was hammering. It had been a REALLY long time since any girl other than Sarah had even thought of doing that. He unraveled his fingers from hers and instead, placed them around her waist. He liked it better that way. Apparently, she thought so too, because the next thing he knew, they were kissing on a bench.

"Caleb," she giggled as he nibbled her neck. "Come on, it's getting late."

"All right." Reluctantly, they both got up and headed back to his car.

--

"Goodnight, Caleb." Regina sighed, as he gave her one last kiss at her door.

As she was about to skip in, Caleb called out to her from down the hall. "Regina?"

"Yes?"

"If any boy asks you out as of now, tell me and I will kill him." The look in his eyes almost seemed to suggest, Even the other guys – Reid and Tyler.

"All right." Regina's smile couldn't have been wider when she walked into her room and flopped onto her bed.

I am his girlfriend, she thought, almost delirious with joy, girlfriend.
