Brendon grasped my hand and we headed for the restaurant. It was very busy inside, nothing I didn't expect. Brendon lead me over to the reception desk.
"Hello, we have a table booked for two. Under the name Urie please." His gentle voice could make any women go insane.
The receptionist who had curly ginger hair lead us to our reserved table and we thanked her kindly. Not once did she look at me. Her eyes were fixed on him and him only. Brendon helped tuck me in, a gesture the receptionist didn't appreciate.
"Here, I'll go to the bar and order us some drinks whilst you choose what you'd like to eat. What drink do you fancy?" He asked me very sweetly.
"Could I have a coke please?" I smiled.
Brendon replied to me. "No Lola, it's too sugary. Pick something else please."
We stared at each other for a second until he burst into laughter.
"Lola, I'm just joking!" He giggled a little more. "I'm not your dentist right now, I'm your date." He winked at me and walked over to the bar.
About two hours went by...
We'd finished our drinks and dinners. It was lovely! Brendon had a steak and ale pile whilst I had a chicken curry. We'd talked so much throughout the night that I was exhausted. I'd found out that Brendon was 23 years of age and I found out all about his routes to becoming the great dentist he is today. I took a large yawn and Brendon scooped my up into his arms. He left the money on the table for the waitress to collect. Once again, he was carrying me bridal style.
I must have fallen asleep in his arms because when I awoke we'd just got in his house. He was carrying me again which I didn't seem to mind.
"You're so tired Lola. You can stay at mine tonight if you wish." He gently whispered, not trying to startle me.
"Okay" I sighed.
I had no clean clothes with me so Brendon helped me change into a t-shirt and pair or shorts that belonged to him. They were very large on me but they smelt amazing!
"I'm ready to sleep now" I told Brendon in a subtle voice.
"You can't go to sleep without brushing your teeth!" He reminded me. "Here, let me help you."
There were no gloves or mask this time. I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He propped me up on his bathroom counter and steadily squeezed a pea sized amount of toothpaste onto a clean toothbrush.
"Open up Lola!" He announced, prepared for the brushing.
I was so tired I followed his instructions without a question. I opened my mouth wide enough for him to brush my teeth. He used his thumb on my chin to keep my head steady and after 2 minutes, he rinsed my mouth with water.
I was already half asleep when he finished up. Brendon scooped me up into his loving arms and placed me into his bed, tucked me in and kissed me goodnight.
I must have fell asleep then...
