Chapter 6: Justin and Dayna's date

A/N: I'm trying out a new POV cause it would be awkward to drag Lord Death on a date soooo it's going to be Dayna's POV.

***Dayna POV***

"So...where are we goooing?" I asked Justin, as he lead me to his motorbike.

"Somewhere spppeeecciaalll." He said. "But I won't tell ya cause it will ruin the surprise. But it's Italian, so I hope you like it?"

"I love Italian! Can I know the name?" I teased.

"No."

"Address?"

"Nope." He said, handing me a helmet.

"First letter of the title."

"No, now put your helmet on, curious one! I won't ruin the surprise!" He said, gently helping me with my helmet.

He climbed on his bike with grace, and I clambered on, less than graceful. He tried not to chuckle, and then I glared at him and he burst out laughing.

"Yea, yea laugh it up. Just cause I can't get on a bike." I huffed, faking annoyance.

"I'm sorry!" He said, falling for my act.

Justin's face was completely apologetic, and then I giggled. He rolled his eyes, realizing I had acted the whole thing, and then started the bike.

"Hang on to my waist!" He yelled over the engine, and I held on for dear life, blushing at the contact of our bodies.

Justin took off, going a reasonable pace through Death City. After a while I began to relax, enjoying the fresh night air and sights some more. He pulled up close to an Italian restaurant, and I finally knew the name.

"Lenny's Panini & Pizza." I read aloud, as Justin helped me off the bike.

He held out his elbow and I grabbed it, and he lead me in, even held the door like a true gentlemen. We came up to the host podium and a young lady looked up and smiled.

"Reservation?" She asked, a slight Italian accent in her voice.

"Private table for two, under Justin Law. Give my regards to Lenny, would you please?" He answered, and she lead us away.

"Private table?" I whispered to him, and he looked down and winked.

"Anything for my lady." He answered, and the girl turned around.

"Here's the lovely table for the beautiful couple. Sir, shall I ask Mr. Lenny to come out here?" The girl asked, and I finally got a glimpse of her name tag.

"Yes please Valerie." Justin asked, and helped me into my chair as she walked off.

I glanced around the room, admiring the decor. The walls were a brown, with red curtains leading into the private room and over the windows. There were plants and statues in the corners. The table we were sat at had a red table clothe, with a tall candle in the middle with a few rose petal scattered around the table.

"You like it?" Justin asked, seemingly a bit nervous.

"It's amazing, no boy has ever done this for me!" I said, still in awe.

I heard the curtain's rustle and watched as a shorter man walked through, and came up to our table. He had a gentle face, with smile lines and a thick moustache. He was heavyset, but not to much. He had a suit on, with a red tie and a rose peeking out of his pocket.

"Justin m'boy! How are ya? And who's the lovely lady? A date perhaps?" The man said, nudging Justin and winking.

"Lenny, this is Dayna, my lady of the evening. Dayna, this is my great uncle Lenny!" Justin introduced us and we shook hands.

"Is it the usual tonight lad? Spaghetti and meatballs with ice cream to follow, with tea?" Lenny asked, whipping out a notebook.

"Yes please, but double it. Are you ok with that Dayna?" Justin asked me, and I nodded.

"Perfect!" I smiled at him.

Lenny smiled gently and slipped quietly from the room. It was Justin and I alone in the room together. He smiled at me, and nervously took my hand. I blushed at the feeling of his hand on mine, clasping it gently.

"I hope everything's been good so far!" He mumbled, looking up at me through his eyelashes.

"It's been perfect. No boy has ever gone through such effort for me. Thank you!" I smiled at him, and he sat up more confidently.

"Your welcome, and we haven't even gone through half of the night yet, we have a concert to go too." Justin winked, and I got excited all over again.

"Any hints?"

"Nope!"

I sighed, and Lenny reappeared with our tea's in hand, and I smiled for the fiftieth time tonight. He set them down, and whispered something to Justin, who turned tomato red, and Lenny walked away chuckling.

"So what's it like being a death scythe?" I asked, sipping my tea, and Justin looked at me, a little less red.

"It's pretty good, good perks, but having to be on call all day all night can be killer sometimes. Lord Death excused me from call tonight, he understood." Justin answered, holding his tea cup also.

While we were waiting for our food, our conversation topics wandered. I felt as if I was talking to someone who completely understood me, an old friend. Justin and I had become friends over the course of my stay at the D.W.M.A., but I wanted more and I hoped he did too. Lenny quietly came in and set our plates down, bowed a little and walked back out. We spent most of the dinner telling funny stories of our childhood, or weird perks about us. He had me laughing til I swore I was getting a six pack, my sides aching. Then the topic of music came up and I found out Justin and I love the exact same bands! Thew dessert came, and I enjoyed every bite of the ice cream I had. Lenny came in again, and waited until we noticed him standing there, still chuckling from the last of our story.

"The meal was good?" Lenny asked.

"Amazing, the food was fantastic." I said.

"Perfect as usual, Great Uncle Lenny. Now can I get the bill please?" Justin asked, and Lenny shook his head chuckling.

"No you may not, because its on the house lad. Least I can do for my favourite nephew and his first date, a lovely lady at that. Now, enjoy the rest of you night!" Lenny said, laughing at Justin's protests as he gathered the plates and walked back to the kitchen, and Justin sighed in defeat.

"Stubborn Italian blood!" Justin muttered and I giggled. "Now let's go to the concert!" He said, grinning, looking at me.

He lead me out of the restaurant and to his bike. I managed to climb on gracefully this time, dismayed to find out that he had put a tinted visor on my helmet so I couldn't see where we were going. I made a noise of protest and Justin simply guided my hands to his waist and took off for the concert hall. We travelled for about ten minutes, by my guesses cause I couldn't see.

"We're here Dayna!" Justin said, guiding me off the bike and helping me with my helmet. I took one glance at the "Who's Playing" board and squealed...loudly.

"OH MY GOD! YOU ARE TAKING ME TO SEE LINKIN PARK?! SERIOUSLY?! Best date EVER!" I screamed and Justin laughed, showing me my ticket and I guarded it as if it were a jewel, in my eyes it was.

He lead me, I was skipping the entire time and fangirling, to the entrance, showed the lady our tickets, and lead us to our seats.

"FRONT ROW SEATS?! WHAT?! HOW?!" I screamed and he laughed.

"Death scythes have awesome perks, one being front row seats to most concerts playing in Death City." He smiled, and held my hand.

A huge security guard came up to us and motioned to us. I blinked, confused, and Justin smiled. He pulled out my ticket and pointed to a part of the writing I hadn't seen.

"BACK STAGE PASSES? Dude are you trying to impress me?"

"Well, actually yes..."

"THANK YOU!" I screamed and kissed his cheek. He smiled and the security guard helped me over the barrier, Justin following.

We got lead to the back room where the band was relaxing before the show. The guard knocked, and Brad Delson, the lead guitarist opened the door.

"So you guys are our special fans?" Brad smiled, and lead me in, Justin following. The guard stood right beside the door as it closed.

Rob was laying on the couch, reading. Dave and Joe were rehearsing, Joe helping to program the system for the concert. Chester and Mike we're talking on the other couch. They all stopped to look for who was at the door and jumped up. I was fangirling sooo much on the inside, and Justin laid his arm around my waist, trying to keep me from tackling them all. All the members came up beside Brad and we began shaking hands, and introducing ourselves. We all relaxed on the couch, the band still had an hour to relax. Turns out, they are awesome to talk too. We chatted for the entire hour, and they even signed my shirt for me, on the back. We went back to the seats as the show began. It was FANTASTIC! The began with In The End, then went on to do Don't Stay, Faint, Numb, Bleed It Out, Burn It Down, One Step Closer, A Place For My Head, Minute To Midnight...and on and on and on for three wonderful hours. The concert ended, and they waved goodbye to the crowd. The same guard came and gave me their e-mail addresses so we could keep in contact and I was ecstatic. Justin lead my by the hand, and I followed, my cheeks hurting from smiling so much.

We walked for a bit down the streets, and we came to a park. We lay down on a hill and began telling each other stories of the stars, and legends. We did this for hours, and then it happened. I was getting up and accidentally tripped, sending myself into his lap. I blushed furiously, and attempted to get up, but he held me there gently, and I finally surrendered. He and I were face to face, and I was unsure what to do. I had never been kissed before, the guys I like were all jerks. But Justin isn't, and I think I am falling for him, hard. I snapped back to reality and I realizing he was gazing at me. We both leaned in and closed our eyes. I felt his lips press against mine and I kissed back. It was...amazing. Sparks flying and warmth shooting through me as we enjoyed the first kiss I had ever had, and it was with the perfect guy. We pulled apart, and he leaned his forehead against mine.

"That was amazing Dayna!" He said breathlessly.

"For my first kiss, yes it was." I said back, and he nodded.

"Mine too. Dayna I have to tell you something..." He said to me, leaning back and looking away.

"Anything.." I said back, leaning my hand against his cheek and leading his amazing blue eyes back to me.

"I really like you Dayna, and I want to become more than friends..." He lead off.

"I like you too, so much." I said back and he smiled a bit.

He took a deep breath, stared me straight in the eye and said.

"Dayna Ferro, will you be my girlfriend?"
