Chapter 5
"Hey Guys." I said as I walked in Emily's house.
It's been two days since Jake turned into an wolf, and tonight I am going on my first date with Paul. I don't know where we are going, since Paul is keeping it a secret. The guys mumbled a hello back and I sat in Paul's lap. Jake looked at us and raised an eyebrow.
"What's going on?" Jake said then shook his head.
"You hurt her Paul, and I will be your worst nightmare." Jake threatened Paul.
Paul responded developing a smile on his face, "I don't plan to hurt her, from what I heard, I am more afraid of what she will do to me first."
Jake laughed. "Good answer."
I jump up from Paul's lap and tell everyone that Emily is going with me to find an outfit for the date. "We will be back in a couple of hours." I kissed Paul and walked out the door with Emily. We drove to Seattle and walked into the first clothing store we could find. We searched the whole store, and we settled on a black woman's shoulder chiffon rosette dress, and a pink corset top with dark faded jeans.
The next store we came to was a jewelry store. Emily saw a bracelet that reminded her of the first date she had with Sam. She purchased the bracelet and I bought a heart necklace and hoop earrings, with a ring. We drove back home so I could get ready for my date with Paul.
We spent thirty minutes getting ready. When I looked into the mirror, I barely recognized myself. My eyes had that smoky look to them and I had dark pink lipstick on. The outfit we decided on was the dress, and I had black flats on.
The doorbell rang, signalling that Paul was here. I practically ran downstairs, and threw open the door. Paul laughed at my eagerness and gave me the lilies he was holding. How did he know my favorite flowers were lilies?
"Jake helped me plan tonight." Paul said, and I understood. Jake knew what I loved and what I hated. I shook my head and laughed. So typical of him.
"Shall We?" Paul held his hand out to me.
"Certainly." I replied. He led me to his car and I was in heaven. "No Way!" I said looking at his car. It was an Audi R8 Spyder, and I loved that car. "How did you get this? It's really expensive." I continued.
"A gift from my uncle, who is a movie director." Paul said.
"Oh." I replied.
We got into the car and drove to the place we were going. Along the way, we just talked about the old times, when things were simpler and before any of us changed into wolves. We pulled in front of La Bella Italia. Guess that's where we are going. I looked at Paul and told him I always wanted to eat at this restaurant, but never had the chance until now. We walked in and the hostess took us to a reserved table. I looked at Paul and smiled.
I ordered the mushroom ravioli and Paul ordered the PESCI di GIORNO. We ate and talked for what seemed like hours. Paul looked at his watch and told me it was time to go.
Paul paid the check and we went to the car. We drove for a couple of blocks and we stopped in front of the movie theater. I noticed Black Swan was playing and I told Paul that I wanted to see it. Paul purchased the tickets and we stopped at the candy counter for a large bucket of popcorn and a couple of drinks. We handed our tickets to the ticket booth and went into the theater to our seats. I wanted a good spot so we sat somewhere in the middle of the theater. A few minutes later the movie started and I edged closer to Paul so we could share the popcorn.
He put an arm around me, and I felt comfortable in his arms. We sat through the whole movie, and I jumped at the scary parts. When the movie was over, Paul drove me home and parked in the driveway. I said goodbye to Paul and kissed him, getting out of the car. I walked to the door and watched Paul drive away.
