Earnest Plea

[Later that night.]

Lillian agreed to Blake's idea of having a

dinner outside, but what she didn't see coming was how it ended. 

The duo made their way to a high end restaurant of Blake's choice. At first, Lillian had her own doubts, but they all began to dissipate when Blake assured her. 

She was taking it to be another one of those high-end fundraising dinners where she would have to mingle with people. It wasn't her thing to have a smile plastered across her face as she greeted the other guests one after the other. And that was how exactly it went every time she was with Blake or Katherine. Sometimes she even wondered how these two cope up with the glam of it all. 

It was a big sigh of relief for her when Blake disclosed it to her that it would be just the two of them in a fancy restaurant, doing nothing but enjoying their meal. 

"So what's the occasion?" She looked up at him as she walked beside him, meeting his every step with her own.
