7pm at Bon Appetito

Gabrielle and André had arrived at the restaurant and were on their way into the restaurant. Anyone who saw them will say they match and were the perfect couple. That night, André decided to wear a cream white blouse shirt whiles leaving a button opened,a blacks tailored trousers with shiny black shoes. His hair was gelled back into a ponytail. To complete his outfit he added a necklace with the symbol Christ Cross. He looked ravishing and so did Gabrielle.

André had already reserved a seat upstairs for them. Upon entering the restaurant they were led by the waiter to their seats.

Lucas was already sitting at his seat waiting for Alicia. One thing he disliked was tardiness. Just as Lucas was about to leave he saw Alicia hurrying towards the entrance looking for someone and that someone must have been him.

So he called her and told her he was at the top side of the restaurant. He had to admit she was a beauty after all. With that petite form, light brown hair which held up and rolled, he couldn't actually define the colour of her eyes. She then saw him and made her way toward him. There he could tell she had a lighter shade of brown eyes, fair plumb lips. Her peach dress stuck to her like it was made for her. Lucas was suprised to see her wear sport shoes instead of heels like most women.

Alicia sat in her chair and resisted the urge to roll her eyes when he didn't bother taking out the chair for her. Truth be told, she had never seen such ravishing beauty and with such attitude. He had a blank face.

"So you are Lucas?"

Lucas being Lucas he just nodded.

Well as you know I am Alicia one of Carlos's friends. I would have said it's nice to meet you but the look you are given is stopping me."

"Looks like you are straight forward and I might say beautiful. Consider yourself lucky, I bearly compliment people but I am kind of interested in what you got to say."

Lucas said whiles smirking and looking her straight in the eyes with fond interes.

"Well Mr Sandoval, you are cocky much." She said with a smile. Lucas expected her to maybe splash water in his face and leave but she didn't. Lucas admitted he liked this girl. He wasn't always this intrigued to find out more about a person.

Just when Lucas was about to speak he received a call from Carlos, he excused himself and was on his way to the washroom when he bumped into someone.

André and I were seated at our seats and where conversing. Me telling him I saw Elijah today. Him telling me he was sorry for not making it for our outing and me assuring him it was fine. He made few jokes he laughed I laughed and that's how most of our time there was. A waiter came and we ordered and ate. For beverages I took white wine and so did André.

He was just about to order dessert when I felt a certain urge to use the rest room.

"André I will be right back. I'm gonna use the rest room . I won't be long so don't miss me too much." I smiled and left only for me to bump into someone near the restroom. I was really starting to think today was bumping day.

Not only did I get hurt I got no apologies either. I was just about to lash out on the person and I froze. "He" was ... So handsome I think I lost my tongue for a second but I recovered easily and...

"Could you watch where you are headed, Miss?"

"Me? You are so unbelievable, you knock me and you accuse me you-" To my utter suprise he just left like I wasn't talking to him. He looked handsome but I feel like that handsomeness had driven him to insanity. How dare he. He is lucky I am in no mood to chat, Ignorant handsome fool.

I decided to ignore him and go to the restroom but if I am to encounter him again, I will surely give him a piece of my mind.

And that's how they both met for the first time not knowing they were gonna meet again.

Lucas was almost done with his work for the day. Carlos had already come to give him details on the girl he was supposed to meet; her name was Alicia, she was Latino, she was 25 years and was quite a beauty and the fact that Carlos personally came to remind him meant he was serious so he wanted to hurry and ramp up his work and get over this "date". Lucas finished his work and drove to "Bon Appetito" the French Italian restaurant. He preferred this restaurant. Even if he didn't want to go for this date he could at least choose a place he liked.

Luca had his sombre look as as usual as he made his way towards the restroom only to collide into a woman. He became annoyed at once considered she wasn't watching were she was going. When she started blubbering he just ignored her and went his way.

And to his disappointment Carlos had only called to ask him how his date was going. Lucas said I was fine and cut the call. He went back to his table and his smile returned. Lucas didn't know why but Alicia was something else.

"You don't look so good Mr Sandoval Maybe you need a shot and music to make you forget your worries."

Alicia had soon seen the facade Lucas was pulling to hide his distress and she knew a place more relaxing for him.

Lucas had to be honest, Alicia hadn't been the type to be this nice going and entertaining not to mention beautiful. Though Lucas had seen beautiful women he was especially intrigued by Miss Gomez. So Lucas decided to go with Alicia to where ever she wanted to take him.

Lucas for the first time in a while felt the need to actually leave office work and venture into something different. So let Alicia lead the way out of the restaurant to ... .
