DT 10: A normal date. For real this time. I hope.

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed May 30, 2012 12:48 am

Trev led Chloe into a small restaurant that had gotten pretty decent reviews online. It looked like some sort of Asian fusion, and they seemed to have a pretty decent selection of vegetarian items on the menu, so Trev hoped that the pace would work pretty well for Chloe. His date.

Date? How the hell did he wind up doing this again? The last time he asked out a girl she made an ass out of him in public and then turned into one of the Horsemen of the Apocalyspse, so really, he was hoping for ANYTHING better than that this time around.

"So, the reviews said this place was pretty good. I'm hoping they don't turn me into a liar," he smiled.

"It smells good, at any rate." Chloe said as they walked in.

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed May 30, 2012 12:59 am

"That's usually a good sign, yes," he grinned.

Trev was wearing a pair of trendy jeans and a black button down shirt, and even showed up at Choe's door with a single rose. The host took them to a small table in a corner and took some drink orders before leaving them alone.

Chloe was wearing a light purple dress, very simple, but very flattering "you look nice." she said, smiling at Trev.

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed May 30, 2012 12:16 pm

"Thanks," he smiled, "you look fantastic. Really like the color of that skirt...Dress. ...uh. Honestly...What's the difference between the two?" Trev asked with a chuckle.

by **Chloe Grant** » Wed May 30, 2012 12:36 pm

"If the top is attached or separate." Chloe said.

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed May 30, 2012 7:06 pm

"Is it sad I didn't know the difference?" he laughed.

by **Chloe Grant** » Wed May 30, 2012 10:18 pm

"Very sad." Chloe said, "But I'll forgive you. This time."

by **Trev Anderson** » Thu May 31, 2012 12:56 pm

"I'll try to brush up on women's fashion for next time," he smirked.

A waiter came and took their drink orders, and returned fairly quickly with their glasses.

"Here's to a fun night," he toasted.

by **Chloe Grant** » Thu May 31, 2012 3:53 pm

"A fun night." Chloe repeated "Oh, this is very nice." she said after she tasted her drink.

by **Trev Anderson** » Fri Jun 01, 2012 3:03 pm

"Yelp said the Mai Tais were pretty much the best in town," he nodded in agreement. "I'd say they weren't too off base. This is damn tasty. Any thoughts on the menu? And how hungry are you? A bunch of the appetizers sound really good."

by **Chloe Grant** » Fri Jun 01, 2012 10:59 pm

"That sounds really good to me too." Chloe said "I'm not starving, so something nibbly sounds great."

by **Trev Anderson** » Fri Jun 01, 2012 11:12 pm

"Order the hell out of some appetizers it is," he smiled. "So, I won't pretend to know the UK very well but where are you from?"

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Jun 02, 2012 12:47 am

"Do you reckon you know where London is?" Chloe asked with a cheeky grin.

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 12:49 am

"nope," he said straight faced, before breaking into a grin.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 12:51 am

Chloe giggled "Well, thats where I'm from. I was born in Australia, but Mum and I moved here when I was a baby."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 1:08 am

"I've always wanted to go to Australia. Have you ever been back?"

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 1:24 am

"No, I haven't." Chloe said "I never knew I was born there, until Mum told me. I was puzzling over why it was that I turn into a galah."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 2:55 am

"there's a lot of beautiful animals from there," Trev nodded. "I bet you look gorgeous even as a bird,"

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 11:44 am

"Thank you." Chloe said, preening a little at the compliment "I've always thought that the colour scheme looked rather nice. I'm glad that I have the same one as a dinosaur."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 1:10 pm

"This might sound weird, but it would be really cool to see you like that sometime," Trev said a bit bashfully.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 1:32 pm

Chloe giggled "Its ok. I don't think you're a creeper. I'll tell you what, next time we go out, I'll fly over, and then I can change before we leave."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 1:49 pm

"Well I guess that answers a question I had saved for later," he chuckled.

The waiter came and took their order--pretty much every appetizer on the menu--and left them again.

"So...I haven't scared you off yet and you might actually want a second date?" he grinned--somewhat nervously.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 9:09 pm

"Not yet." Chloe said, grinning, "But the night is still young."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sun Jun 03, 2012 10:39 pm

"So I should save the shrine I constructed for you for the second or third date," he laughed.

by **Chloe Grant** » Mon Jun 04, 2012 2:14 pm

"That depends." Chloe said "If it involves candles I'd say leave it until the fourth date, but a tasteful scrap book would be fine for the first date. Unless its not a joke, and then I'm going to run away right now."

by **Trev Anderson** » Mon Jun 04, 2012 9:06 pm

"Totally tasteful!" he laughed. "I mean, what do you take me for?"

by **Chloe Grant** » Tue Jun 05, 2012 1:14 am

"A perfectly nice person!" Chloe said "Why else would I be here."

by **Trev Anderson** » Tue Jun 05, 2012 10:16 pm

"Maybe you just like free meals from a fat guy--I mean, you've gotta trust my taste in food at least," he chuckled.

"Thank you for this, by the way. It's been one hell of a summer so far, so being able to just go out and enjoy myself in the company of a charming, funny, and very pretty girl is a treat."

by **Chloe Grant** » Tue Jun 05, 2012 11:23 pm

"And its nice to spend time with someone who enjoys my company, and wants to be more than a friend." Chloe said "Not that having friends is a bad thing. Not at all. I like my friends."

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed Jun 06, 2012 12:36 am

"I can drink to that," he smiled, hefting his glass again.

The food came not all that long later, and the waiter had a pretyt hard time fitting all of the serving dishes on the table. While there was a fair amount of food, it wasn't far too much--there was just not nealry enough room for all of the plates on the table.

"Try the spring rolls. They're fantastic," Trev suggested after a swallow.

by **Chloe Grant** » Wed Jun 06, 2012 12:58 am

"They are very nice." Chloe agreed.

by **Trev Anderson** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:33 pm

Some time later, they'd at least made an impressive dent in the food they got.

"You save any room for dessert? I found a couple places that sounded good if so," Trev asked cheerfully.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 12:37 am

"I could eat some icecream." Chloe said "Or cake. I really like cake."

by **Trev Anderson** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:05 pm

"I think I'm feeling ice cream a bit more than cake. Feel like it takes up less room, you know?" he chuckled. "Do we want pretty good and moderately healthy sorbet/frozen yogurt, or do we want the good stuff that's going to destroy my diet, but be totally worth it?"

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:08 pm

"I said I wanted ice cream." Chloe said with a giggle.

by **Trev Anderson** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:21 pm

"Well then," he grinned, "I like your style, Miss Grant. I like it indeed."

Trev left some cash on the table with the bill, including a decent-sized tip, which he honestly couldn't remember if was culturally appropriate in England, but at that point he was eager for a walk through the nice evening air with a cute girl at his side. Hell, maybe there'd be some hand-holding.

And hopefully, there'd be no crotch-grabbing or extremely public humilation unlike his last dates.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:37 pm

As they walked out the door, Chloe smiled shyly and took his hand.

by **Trev Anderson** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:43 pm

Score!!!

Trev accepted her hand gladly, but not too eagerly to seem creepy. He pulled out his phone with his free hand and looked up where they were going. He showed Chloe, where he was thinking of taking them. "If you have any suggestions for shortcuts or scenic routes, let me know. I still barely know where the hell I'm going without GPS," he chuckled.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Jun 10, 2012 1:40 am

"No, the gps route looks good to me" she said
