Alexander
I can't believe I agreed to a date, with someone I don't even know, or even know what they look like! I started to wonder who she is, if she will even like me for who I am once she knows that I am Alexander Williams, sometimes I hated being 'me'.
At least I knew she would be wearing a black dress, with red heels. I mean honestly, how many women would be out tonight wearing the same? I told her that I would wear similar, black suit with a red tie.
Well dinners at 7, I guess I should start getting ready.

I arrive a little early, since I don't like anyone waiting on me.
Considering I chose the restaurant, Maurice, the head waiter, had my table ready and waiting for me. I had a clear view of the door and now I wait.
At the moment I noticed Sierra walk in. Hmm she must be here on a date as well, I thought to myself. She is standing by the hostess table looking for her date I presume. I can't help but to think how beautiful she is as I look down her body, her black dress that stops right above the knee to show off her gorgeous legs that finished with-- is that-- oh no-- red heels??? Sierra is SW1234?!
Sierra
I can't believe I let Jamie talk me into going on this blind date. I mean, what if he is a murderer? At least I'll die in a fancy restaurant, that I hope he pays for because there is NO way I can afford this place.
I walk in and start looking for Mr. Black Suit Red Tie guy. I scan and scan when I notice Xander sitting at a table, alone.
Maybe I should go say hi? What if his date is just in the bathroom? I don't want to bother him.
All these thoughts flooding my mind when I noticed his gorgeous green eyes. I can't help but to let my eyes wonder as I walk over to say "Hi", but then something else caught my attention, RED TIE.
No it's just a coincidence, but even the black suit? I start biting my lip nervously as I stop and turn around and run towards the exit.
"It can't be my boss, of all the people in this world, ALEXANDER WILLIAMS, REALLY?!" I start yelling to myself as the night air hits my face. I pull out my phone call an uber when I feel a body stand next to me.
"Just going to leave without saying hi?" Xander says with a chuckle. I turn to meet his green eyes that always pull me into a trance like I am being hypnotized.
"I-I'm sorry, I um, this is gonna be weird but, are you XanWill123?" I say as I'm screaming in my head-please say no, please say no!
As Xander clears his throat, "let me guess, SW1234?"
I stood there in shock that he knew my username.
"Well that confirms that," I said with wide eyes, "I take it we should just go our separate ways now, acting like this never happened. I will see you on Monday Mr. Williams." As I started to walk away, I felt a hand around my wrist,
"who says anyone would have to know," Xander said with a wink. "Let me at least treat you to dinner for your trouble?"
I looked deep into his green eyes. There was something there, something I never noticed before. I smiled slightly, not trying to seem too forward, "okay."
Xander
I can't believe she agreed to dinner. Was this risky, yes, did I care, heck no. She was gorgeous and I wanted to just sit with her. I wanted to do way more but I wanted her to feel comforter with me. We sat and talked for hours and we may have flirted some too.
I learned more about her that night than I've known in the last 3 weeks of working with her. We ate and had some wine, making sure we didn't have too much that it would cloud our judgement. I was looking out for her.
About that time, Maurice made his way to me letting me know that they were closing.
"Well I guess this is where our night ends," Sierra said with a forced smile.
"Well, it doesn't have to be? Would you like to take a walk with me?"
"I would like that." She said with a smile as she reached for my hand that I was holding out for her. She interlocked her fingers in mine as I led her to the nearby park.
"Tell me Sierra, why LA?"
"Well, I just needed a new start. I didn't have a good life in Colorado and I wanted something, someone good in my life."
She seemed sad, maybe I shouldn't have brought it up. "I'm sorry," I tell her with a regretful look, "I didn't mean to pry, I just wanted to really get to know you and,"
I was cut off by her locking her hands around my neck. My hearts was thumping, I wanted to do this since the day I met her. Could I be reading into this wrong? As I looked into her longing eyes, I decided to just go for it.
I leaned down into her kiss. Our lips locking together, like they were meant for each other. My hands fell to her hips, pulling her in closer, deepening the kiss. My tongue begging for her to allow me entrance, which She does willingly, and our tongues began searching each others.
She let out a moan that weakened my knees. I wanted her, I wanted more. I felt her hand on my chest slightly pushing me away. Both of us breaking the most amazing kiss ever, and wiping our lips.
"Well, that's a way to accept my apology." I said laughing.
"I'm sorry I just wanted to do it for so long and I thought you wanted the same?"
I looked at her, debating on my next move. She had a gleam in her eye and I was just going to roll with it.
"Miss. Wright," I said while giving her my arm, "would you like to accompany me back to my place for some drinks?"
With her taking my arm, I took that as a yes.
