A/N: I only own the OC.

Thank you for reviewing!

I had to admit that I was nervous to go with Dash to a cookout. I had accepted, and it sounded really fun... but I was nervous now. We hadn't been talking long and I only knew a few bits and pieces about him. A lot of people seemed to like him and he didn't have any problems backstage. I had texted him about what to wear and he said nothing fancy, but have a swimsuit. I had thrown it into my bag as he knocked on the door. I opened it and he smiled at me.

"Hi." I said and he smiled as he handed me a small bouquet of daisies.

"You look nice." he said and I motioned for him to come in as I put them in some water.

"Thank you, I really wasn't sure what to wear." I said and he nodded.

I locked up and we left for his friends cookout. We got there and it was a NXT trainer having the cookout, so it was nice to see a few familiar faces. I had fun talking to different people, we swam in the pool, and lit fireworks as it got dark. I was having fun with Dash, but I felt a little off when Finn showed up with Noam. He smirked when he saw me and stated to come over, but stopped when Dash put his arm around me.

"I can't escape him at all." I mumbled and Dash looked over to see Finn and Noam.

"Would you like to get out of here?" he asked me and I shook my head no.

"No, this is your friends... I can just act like he doesn't exist." I said and Dash smirked at me.

"Fine, but if it's too much we can leave at any time." he said and I smiled. He really did seem to care if I was uncomfortable or not. I was talking with Dash and one of his friends from NXT, and they were discussing wrestling. I liked wrestling, but it wasn't something I could talk about for hours. I excused myself and slipped inside to get a beer.

"Having fun?" a voice asked me and I turned to see Finn standing there decked out in a lot of things that looked like the American Flag.

"Yes, he is nice." I said and he chuckled when he saw that I was eyeing his outfit.

"Jealous?" he asked me and I shook my head no with a chuckled.

"I just don't think I have seen such a unique outfit since living in Los Angeles." I said and he chuckled.

"I felt like getting into the spirit." he said and I nodded as he handed me a beer.

"Looks more like you have had one too many spirits." I said and he laughed as Dash came inside.

"I was getting us beers." I said as I grabbed another one and handed it to him. He smiled and took it.

"I was actually going to see if you were about ready to go." he said and I looked surprised before setting the beers down.

"Um, yeah, if you are." I said because it was his friend's party.

"I will say bye and we can leave out the front." he said and I nodded as he kissed my cheek. I felt myself smile as he walked out the door, and looked over to see Finn watching me with an amused look. I felt my smile turn into a scowl because I knew that something stupid was about to come out of his mouth.

"Shame I won't get to look at those nice legs the rest of the night." Finn said and I rolled my eyes as I looked at him.

"I think you enjoy my attention because you ever fight back." he said after I didn't comment.

"What's the point, Finn? You are just a jackass who has gotten off on his looks and is only decent about a millisecond of the time and that's only once every 6 months." I said and he smirked.

"You are about as charming as a bag of dicks, but speaking of dicks..." he said and I rolled my eyes again.

"Glad to see you haven't lost your charm." I cut him off and he started to say something, but Dash walked in and offered me his arm.

"I'm going to take Leela now so you can't harass her anymore... sorry Mr. America." Dash said in a sarcastic tone and we left with Finn trying to say something, but hte door closing before he could figure out what to say. We got to his truck and he opened the door before getting in himself.

"We didn't have to leave." I said and he waved it off.

"Finn wasn't leaving you alone, and I realized that since this is a date I would like to actually talk to you for a little while." he said and I chuckled as we drove back to my apartment.

"You want to sit out by the pool? The patio is usually deserted at night." I said and he nodded. We put our things in my apartment, grabbed some beers, and walked down there. I wasn't surprised that there wasn't anyone outside right now. They were probably all at the fireworks shows that were taking places in various places in Orlando.

"I hope you had fun." he said as we opened beers and I smiled.

"I did.. it was nice to do something that wasn't solely wrestling for once." I admitted and he nodded.

"You like the travel?" he asked me and I shrugged.

"I guess... it's more bearable because it's with my brother." I said and he nodded.

"I seriously had no idea you were Karl's sister until the other night." he said and I chuckled. I had the same brown hair as Karl, but I looked like my mother, and he looked like our father. We were talking when the fireworks started to go off around us, and Dash pulled me onto the lounger he was sitting on. I was leaned back against him as we walked a free show that went on for about an hour. I was comfortable in his arms as we talked a little longer before he got up to leave.

"Thank you for inviting me tonight." I told him as he grabbed his stuff from my apartment.

"I'm glad you came... I had been wanting to invite you out for awhile, but I always got nervous." he admitted as he rubbed the back of his neck and I smiled at him. I leaned up and kissed his cheek. He smiled even bigger and turned red.

"Night, Leela." he said and kissed my cheek before slipping out the door. I couldn't stop smiling as I locked the door. I walked over to my phone to text Karl and saw I had missed a text from Finn.

Hope you enjoyed your night, but if you want some real fun just text me your address ~ Finn

I felt the smile fall from my lips as I read that. He was such a douche and managed to ruin most of my days... I couldn't wait to stop being his PA.
