~Tuesday (still)
Once Troy got home, he dropped his things on his kitchen counter and ran upstairs to his bedroom. It was already 5:45pm, which meant he had a little over an hour to get ready for his date with Gabriella.
When he got to his room, he went over to his closet. He scanned all the clothes in there and eventually found an outfit for his date. He put on a gray suit with a white button up shirt underneath, along with a black tie. He slipped on his black dress shoes and went downstairs to his house phone (A/N: Outfit on my profile). He picked up the phone and began to make reservations for him and Gabriella at a French restaurant called DANIEL (A/N: Real restaurant in New York City). DANIEL was one of New York's most expensivest restaurant.
Meanwhile, Gabriella had just arrived home. She parked her car in the garage and rushed upstairs to her room. When she got there, she dropped her bags on the floor and rushed over to her bathroom. She started to do her hair and make-up. It was already 6:00pm, which meant she only had an hour to get ready.
When her hair and make-up was finished, she dashed over to her closet. Her hair was down and over her shoulders, while her make-up was light. When she got to her closet she looked over at her dress section of her closet and found a black and teal dress. She also found some matching black pumps to go with the outfit. She decided to wear that and put the clothing items on (A/N: Outfit on my profile). She turned over to her jewelry section in her closet and put on gold cross necklace.
When Gabriella was finished getting dressed, it was already 6:57pm. She grabbed her black Abas Full clutch and put her lipstick, wallet, house keys and cell phone in there. She walked down her stairs and looked at herself in her hall mirror, before hearing a knock on her door. She smiled and fluffed her hair one last time, before going to the door and opening it.
"Hey," Gabriella greeted Troy, with a smile as she opened the door wider for him to step in.
"Hey," Troy greeted back as he stepped into her house, "You look absolutely stunning."
"Thanks," Gabriella replied, blushing as Troy smiled at her.
"These are for you," Troy replied as he handed her the flowers in his hands.
"Thank you! I love daisies!" Gabriella added as she leaned over and kissed his cheek. She then went to her kitchen and put the flowers in a vase, with Troy following.
"No problem, but let's get going because our reservation is at 7:00pm," Troy explained as she followed Troy out of her house. She locked her front door, before heading to her driveway to see Troy's Audi parked there. Troy unlocked the doors with a button and Gabriella climbed into the passengers seat. Troy took his seat in the drivers seat and started the car. He then drove off to the restaurant.
When they got to the restaurant, Troy parked his car and then went to Gabriella's side of the car and opened the door for her. Troy closed the door behind her and Gabriella grabbed onto his arm. They both then walked to the entrance of the restaurant.
Once they were inside, Troy walked over to podium where a man was standing and shook the man's hand.
"Hi Greg," Troy greeted.
"Hello, Troy! Welcome back!" Greg greeted back.
"I have a reservation for the min dining room. Table of two," Troy explained as Greg looked down the list of reservations.
"Ah, yes! Here we are. Just follow me this way," Greg announced as Troy and Gabriella followed Greg to their table. When they got to their table, Troy slid the chair over for Gabriella to sit in. Once she was in the car, he scooted the chair back to the table.
"Thanks," Gabriella replied as Troy went over to his side of the table and sat down.
"Here are you menus," Greg replied as he handed as menu to Troy and Gabriella, "You waitress will be with you in a second."
"Thank you," Troy and Gabriella said at the same time. Gabriella opened her menu and began to scan the menu for a drink.
"Do you like French food?" Troy asked.
"Yeah, I basically like all food," Gabriella teased as Troy smiled at her. He then looked over at the menu and started to look for a drink he wanted.
"Hello! Welcome to Daniels! My name is Helen and I will be your server for this evening," Helen greeted, "Can I get you two something to drink?"
"Okay, I will have a rose martini," Gabriella answered and then looked over at Troy, who was still looking at the menu. Helen wrote her drink down and looked over at Troy also.
"Um, I will have a bergamot martini," Troy answered as Helen wrote down the order.
"Okay! I will be back soon with your drinks!" Helen announced as she walked away.
"So, what are you going to get to eat?" Troy asked.
"Um, I think I'm going to have the grilled arctic char with spring garlic," Gabriella answered, "How about you?"
"Um, I think I'm going to get the yellow fin tuna a la plancha," Troy answered.
"Here are your drinks! Are you guys ready to order?" Helen asked as she placed the drinks on the table.
"Thanks and yes we are ready to order," Troy answered. Him and Gabriella then ordered their food. Helen wrote the orders down and then told them that will come out soon. Helen then walked away.
"Thanks for giving me another chance Troy," Gabriella said, randomly.
"No problem," Troy replied as he smiled at her. Gabriella then took a sip of her drink. A few drops of the martini spilled onto her dress. Gabriella placed the drink on the table and grabbed her napkin.
"I'll be right back," Gabriella replied as she stood up and walked over to the bathroom.
Troy was left at the table, alone. He took a sip of his drink as well and then heard Gabriella's phone vibrate in her clutch. He reached over and grabbed the clutch and pulled out the phone. He then answered it.
"Hello?" Troy answered.
"Heeey… Gabbrrriieellla," A drunken man replied. Troy didn't recognize the voice but her did know the man was drunk.
"May I ask who this is?" Troy questioned.
"It'sss Robbb," Rob replied as Troy's eyes widened.
