When Leon arrived to pick her up, she had chosen to wait for him over in the parking lot.
His eyes widened as he saw her in the famed "little black dress" that most women tended to have in their closets.
She slowly stood up and walked over to him in her black open toed heels.
The dress fit close to her body, making his eyes see the delicious curves she possessed. There were no sleeves and the top part was a sweetheart neckline with the thinnest of straps holding the dress up. He opened his car door in order to open hers when she continued over to his side and wrapped her arms around his neck.
For the second time in the span of a minute, his eyes widened at her action.
"Do you like the dress?"
He was a little distracted by the sensation of her nails lightly scratching the nape of his neck.
"I had thought you would go for color," he murmured, taking in the smoky effect of her eye make-up.
Her lips made a strange smile. "You thought wrong."
He raised a brow at her words, but shrugged it off and bent his head down for a kiss. She released her hold on him and backed away from before he could do so. He blinked at her retreating figure walking around the front of his car and to the passenger door.
"Let's get going then, shall we?"
She did not wait for his response and let herself into the car.

He had his hand along her lower back as they were taken to a table.
She had initially flinched at the contact, but soon relaxed against the touch. He stole a glance over at her to see if she'd sheepishly laugh at being startled, but she did not do so.
Her face stayed forward; she did not even steal one glance at him.
He frowned a little at that.
It wasn't that he was conceited enough to think that she should be looking at him, but rather that she tended to look at him every so often when they were in each other's company. She wasn't even playing with the ends of his hair, which, again, she tended to do when she was close enough to him to do so.
The change in behavior slightly bothered him.
The server pulled out her chair. She gave the man a small smile and a nod and primly sat down. The little smile was gone when the server disappeared.
"Are you alright?"
Her lips pursed a little, but then they went back to normal. "As fine as I could be."
He continued to look at her from across their table. When she opened up the menu and kept her eyes on it, he inwardly sighed and followed her lead.
