《Love on Top》Ch.9
Advertisement
I finished getting dressed and ready for my date with Samuel. I made sure that my hair looked good as well as me. My phone rings and Samuel's name flashes across the screen. I pick it up and press accept. I put it to my ear.
"Hello?" I said.
"I'm outside," He informed me.
"Alright. I'll be down in a sec," I replied.
"See you in a bit," He said.
"You too," I smiled. I hung up the phone and then I brushed any strands of hair off of my shoulders. I grabbed my clutch and placed my phone in there along with two tampons and my card. I grabbed my keys and walked downstairs to the front door. I said goodbye to Cristian and walk outside. Once the front and storm doors were locked,I walked towards Samuel who opened the door once I was near him. I smiled and got in. He closes the door for me and I buckle up my seat belt. He gets in and does the same before starting the car.
As we were driving,a comfortable silence filled the car until he broke it.
"So how about you tell me something about yourself that I can't read in a textbook," He said.
"Alright. Well I'm one of six children in my family,my favorite food is macaroons and donuts,my favorite movie is The Princess Bride,my favorite show is Scream Queens,and my favorite book is Red Queen," I explained,"Your turn." He smiled at me.
"Alright. Well I am an only child,my favorite food is Pan-fried bun and pineapple cake,my favorite movie is V for Vendetta,my favorite show is The Walking Dead,and my favorite book is The Life of Pi," He tells me.

"I read that book. The movie was good,but the book was much better," I stated.
"I can agree with you on that," He said.
"Who is your favorite band?" I inquired.
"My favorite band is Modest Mouse. How about you?" He asked.
"Panic! At the Disco," I responded.
"I've listened to a few of their songs. I Write Sins Nor Tragedies is pretty good," He said.
"Favorite artist?" I queried.
"I have to say my favorite artist is Kurt Cobain. Who is your favorite?" He looked at me.
"It's between Beyoncé and Rihanna," I answered.
"You don't seem like the type to listen to them," He tells me.
"Really? What did you think I listened to?" I asked.
"You seem like the type to listen to artists like The Rolling Stones,Led Zeppelin,or Blur," He answered.
"It just so happens that I do listen to them too," I said.
"Well then I was right," He said.
"Yes you are," I nodded.
"I didn't mean to offend you and if I did then I apologize," He tells me.
"It's okay. I know you didn't mean to," I smiled faintly.
"Good because I couldn't bear if a beautiful woman like yourself didn't want to talk to me at all," He complimented. I blushed with a smile on my face.
"That's very sweet," I looked down at my hands.
"Thank you," He said.
When we arrived at the restaurant,we saw people standing outside and an ambulance was parked a few feet away. I wondered as in to what was going on.
"Hey. I'll go ask someone as in to what's going on," He said. I nodded and looked out the window worriedly. Samuel goes up and taps a man on the shoulder. The man turns and they started to converse for a few minutes. Samuel walked back after what looked to be thanking the man. He gets into the car with a sigh.

"What happened?" I asked.
"The man said that the main chef had a stroke while cooking," He answered.
"Oh my God. Is he okay?" I questioned worriedly.
"I hope so," He replied. We drove off from the restaurant.
"I know another place that we can go to and it's called Marea," He tells me.
"Alright," I nodded.
When we arrived at Marea,the valet parked his car and we went inside together. He gave the maitre d'hôtel his name and he grabbed two menus so he could seat us. When we got to our table,Samuel pulled my chair out for me and I sat down. I thanked him and he pushed it in. He soon sat down himself across from me. The maitre d'hôtel set down our menus before walking away.
"This place is beautiful," I said as I looked around.
"I've been here maybe once or twice. The food is great here," He responded. I looked at him.
"Well I guess I'll take your word for it," I beamed. He chuckles. I looked over the menu. Our waiter approached our table.
"What would you like to drink?" He asked me.
"I'll have a water," I responded.
"For you,sir?" He looked to Samuel.
"A water as well," Samuel replied. The waiter walked away. We scanned the menus again until we knew what we wanted. Our waiter came back again with our waters.
"What will you have for this evening?" The water asked.
"I'll have the Ono," I replied.
"And I will have Vongole," Samuel tells him. Our waiter takes our menus and leaves.
"I was surprised by your confidence at the grocery when you asked me out," He said suddenly.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yes. I have never seen a woman be confident enough to ask out a man," He responded,"It was really sexy."
"Well thank you,but to be honest I was kind of nervous when I did because you're a really good looking man," I tell him.
"Thank you and you are a very beautiful and intelligent woman," He smiled. The rest of the night was filled with great conversation and a few laughs here and there. Samuel was so easy to talk to and he was a great guy. I can't wait until we have a second date. Now we were standing in front of my door.
"I had a great time tonight with you," I said.
"Me too," He said.
"Well I guess this is goodnight," I smiled.
"Yeah," He nods. He leans in and kisses my cheek. I blushed slightly.
"Night," I mumbled.
"Night," He softly said. I unlocked my door and went inside. I locked it then I watched him leave before slipping off my heels and going upstairs. I find Cristian sleeping on his big dog bed.
"Cristian," I said. He lifts his sleepily then puts it back down.
"I'll tell you about it tomorrow," I grinned broadly.
