What in the world did he get me?!
- Thread starter birdie
- Start date
Andrew laughed. "Nope. Not gonna tell you." He stuck the tickets in his pocket and picked up his poster. "Let's go to dinner." He said simply and stood up.
Adelina was about to snatch the tickets from him when he put them in his pocket. "N... noooo...." she said quietly, almost whimpering. "Why must you torture me in this way, Drewy? Why?" she sniffed, and wiped at her eyes as if there were tears. There weren't, really, she was just hoping the crying act would make him feel bad enough to give her the tickets again.
She didn't mind going to dinner, though.

Andrew half laughed. "Not gonna work." He said, and extended his hand. "You sure you wanna wear that to dinner?" He said. "We're gonna go somewhere kind of dressy. Not too dressy though." He already had on a dress shirt, and he figured Addie might want to be dressed a little dressier to go to Les Miserables.
She had known it wouldn't work, but had the harm been in trying? She made a little fake sob and took his hand, pulling herself up. She wiped her eyes again, deciding to stop, and an eyebrow raised. "Why are we going to some place dressy?" she asked. It didn't make sense to her...
"'Cause it's Christmas. Andrew replied. Taking her hand, he led her to the stairs. "I'll meet you on the lawn in about 45 minutes, okay?" He said.
"Ok," Adelina said with a smile. "See you then."

Adelina came out onto the lawn, about forty-five minutes later, wearing clothes that were slightly more dressy but not entirely dress clothes. She was wearing a black skirt and a black shirt and sweater, and she waited for Andrew to come outside.

Andrew had been leaning up against his black truck[yes, his.] "Addie, over here." He called. He pushed the button on the key pad and unlocked his truck.
"'Cause I never told you," He said. He turned the key in the ignition and turned down the volume on the radio. "Okay, you ready?"
