Connor couldn't help but chuckle at the girl's response. She was acting so childish, like a little school girl fawning over her date. Usually, he would love it when girls acted like this around him; it meant they were probably going home with him. But not Paradise. She would hate him if he took advantage of her like that, and he wouldn't feel too happy about it either.
Connor climbed in the car and started to drive. Every few seconds his eyes would flash to Paradise. He couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he did convince her to stay with him. He'd lose the bet, that was for sure. And he was not planning on losing the bet. He wanted to rub it in Keith's face when he won.
It only took a few more minutes before they reached Paradise's parent's house. He quickly got out and opened the door for the girl. Offering his hand once again, he smiled down at the girl. He didn't say a word, it wasn't the perfect time yet. |

The ride home felt shorter then it really was, my eyes trying to focus out the window, but would occasionally start drooping down. Once the car stopped though, I opened my eyes, watching Conner as he walked towards my door and opened it for me. I smiled back at him before grabbing his hand much more confident then I had done as 'normal Paradise'.
[[You can power play them moving to the door since I didn't give you anything. I don't know why but lately I'm really failing a lot. It's weird. o.o ]]

[[ lul Okay. xD
And Vin finds CH's fail sexy, remember? ;D ]]
Connor helped the girl out of the car, smiling still. He gently grabbed her roses from the seat in his other hand and turned back to her. His fingers slid through hers, successfully completing the hand holding. Aw, so cute. He was walking her to the door, holding her hand and her roses. What a gentleman!
Right before they hit the door, Connor stopped, holding the girl back with him. He turned and faced her.
"I had a wonderful time tonight, Paradise," He said softly, looking only into her blue eyes. "I'm glad you allowed me to take you out." His eyes flashed down her body for a second before returning to her eyes again. "It's not everyday that I get to take out a gorgeous woman to show around town." |

[[... Oh yeah. ;) Hopefully you don't need Vaseline. Alright. That's enough. You're... You're rubbing off on me in a bad way. D: ]]
My smile never left my lips as Conner led me to the door. I squeezed his fingers gently once he stopped me. My heart wasn't beating as fast as it was when we left a couple hours ago. My cheeks didn't burn as badly as they would if he complimented me before the wine. I could actually look at him with out thinking of my father right in side the house. I could laugh at anything he said with out worrying that I was being too giddy about this whole thing.
It was then that I remembered I had allowed myself to have this one date, and one date only. Nothing else. I think it was the wine that made me not care.
"I'm glad I allowed you to, too."
I said, that giggle still in my tone.
"It's not every day I let a gorgeous man take me out. You should feel special now."
I said, giving him a crooked grin.

[[ Oh m Lord, CH. How dare you use that Vaseline comment on me? D: ... Hehe, that was funny, though. |D And no, I don't need it. >U ]]
Connor raised an eyebrow at her comment. Oh, he was the lucky one now? The special one? She must have had them confused. That man was never special because of who his date was. The date was special when she was with him.
Connor took a step closer to the girl, looking down at her eyes, and possible down the front of her dress. Just a little peek, nothing obvious. Years of practice made that possible.
"But, you see, Paradise," He started, pulling his hand from hers only to bring it back up to softly brush her arm, "I really, really liked doing this with you. I'd love to try it again." He lifted his eyes from the girl's arm to meet hers. Her big, blue eyes.
"What do you say?" |

But who cares. Right now, I'd go on another date - now.
"I loved it too."
I said, my blue eyes sparkling. "Let's do it again tomorrow."
I wouldn't have sounded so eager if I was sober.

Another brow raised. Tomorrow? Eager little lass, wasn't she? If she had been any other girl, Connor would have offered for the date tonight, in the romantic setting of his bedroom. Complete with clean sheets! But, not Paradise. You couldn't fall in love by making it, well, maybe he could, but not a girl like her.
"Tomorrow sounds lovely," Connor said, a grin playing on his lips. "But, for tonight, I must take my leave."
Connor lifted the girl's hand to his lips and kissed her knuckles softly. Bringing on the charm? Oh yeah. He was bringing it, hard. He gave her a soft bow, then offered her roses to her again.
Did he want to kiss her? That was on the bottom of the list of what he wanted to do to her, but it had to wait. Their first kiss shouldn't be when she was boozy. Because God knows she might regret it the next day, and he didn't want to be something that Paradise regretted.

I smiled as Conner kissed my knuckles, a part of me wishing he would do the same to my lips. No matter how much I wanted him to now, I knew I was going to regret this whole night tomorrow. I took the roses from his hand, letting them tickling my skin on my cheek as I gave him a charming smile.
"Good bye, Conner."
I said before grabbing the door handle and disappearing in my parent's home. I pressed my back against the door once it was closed, feeling like a high school girl who had just gotten her first kiss from her crush - uncontrollably giddy.
[[ It's going to be so awkward once they see each other the next day. Maybe they could run into each other at the cafe or hospital again? I have no other ideas. I already told you how my creativity is lacking lately. D: ]

[[ ... Oh gosh, yes it is. xD
And sure! Oh. Paradise could be like, in the Cafe, waiting for Connor to come around so she can cancel the date, or attempt to. But Connor... He's not gonna have any of it. xD ]] |

Connor ruffled his hair back into its usual messy state as he took off his helmet. He shoved it on the back of his cycle, not even worrying about theft. Everyone around town knew it was his, and knew not to mess with the little beauty. And if they did? Consequences were in order.
Connor walked into the cafe, the same one he did every morning. He ordered his usual, coffee. Black. He tipped his usual 3 dollars. He sat at his usual seat. Routine. This was the only place where he did it. After this, he'd go to work. He had three people lined up today, all just outlines. The life of a tattoo artist... So easy.
Something caught his eye. No. Someone. What in the world was Paradise doing here? Was she stalking him? Well, he could only hope so...
Grinning like a goof, Connor walked over to the table the girl was sitting at. He couldn't stop smiling because the image of her in that dress, or lack thereof, kept flashing in his mind. Woah boy. Down.
"Hey Paradise, fancy seeing you here," Connor said, slipping into the seat across from her. He flashed her a grin before sipping on his coffee. "Are you excited for tonight? Or is that just me?"

I had woken up this morning with a bad headache, but at least I remembered last night. I remembered every embarrassing thing I did and said, and everything Conner said. It was as though someone else was on that date though, in my body and I couldn't control anything. I regretted having that glass of wine, and regretted even more the scandalous thoughts of me and Conner during the whole date.
"Hey Paradise, fancy seeing you here,"
I jumped as though someone tickled my side - yes I was very ticklish. My blue eyes widened to look up at Conner.
"Are you excited for tonight? Or is that just me?"
I swallowed, saving what I was typing on my computer and shutting it off. I slowly reached my hand out to close the screen so I could see Conner better. I avoided looking up at him, not wanting to crush my dreams by seeing that lip ring back on his tempting lips.
"Listen, Conner..."
I started, leaning my arms on the edge of the table and intertwining my fingers. My voice was polite and professional, no friendship involved.
"I think it was a bit obvious that I shouldn't have had that drink last night."
I admitted, finally looking up to meet his eyes.
"I didn't act myself and I'm not very proud of that. So, as flattering as it is that you'd like another date with me, I'm going to have to decline. I'm sorry for leading you on, Conner. It wasn't my intention. I really shouldn't have drank that glass of wine."
I looked back at my fingers once realizing that just looking at him made my cheeks burn. Especially when we talked about something like this.
"I just got over a break up back at La Pointe so I'm not even ready to put my heart out there. And I'm not one to have my heart on my sleeve either. So, I think you need to find a girl that's a bit more easy. I think you're attracted to those types anyways."

"Listen, Connor."
Connor shrank down into his seat. Oh, he had heard those words before. Too many times for his liking, too. Rejection in three... two... one...
"I think you need to find a girl that's a bit more easy."
Blastoff.
First of all, Connor was seriously offended. What? She was too good for him? She thought he only dated girls who put out on the first date? Well, the nerve of her! That was only mostly true! He had to go on at least three dates with Becky before she put out! And Samantha... God, it nearly took her a month. But it was worth every, delicious second...
Connor snapped back to reality. Definitely not the time to be thinking about that. Especially since Paradise was telling him to get lost. And a break up? Honestly, from everyone he called, Justin sounded like a flat out jerk. One of those guys who pretended to be good, but deep down, he was just like Connor. At least Connor had the decency to be honest about what he was.
Connor slid back his chair noisily as he stood up. Okay, this was not how he expected his morning to go. At all. He took in a deep breath before looking at Paradise. She was blushing. Probably because she knew she hit below the belt. Oh, did she feel guilty for hurting his feelings? What a sweetheart...
"I'm sorry."
Connor picked up his coffee from the table and looked down into its murky brown depths. He looked back up to the girl.
"I'm sorry that you think you're too good for me. But, I'm not sorry for anything else... Except for trying to make this work."
Connor dropped his cup on the table with a 'thud' and walked calmly to the door. He wasn't freaking out right then, but he would be later. That was for sure. He would probably go binge drinking and find some girl to hook up with. Just like Paradise wanted him to...
Connor pulled his jacket in closer as a cold breeze swept past. He didn't want to go drinking... He wanted to fix this. He wanted Paradise to see he just wasn't some low life scum bucket who didn't deserve her. No.
A thought crossed his mind, and the man smiled. If wanting to get to know a girl, who should he ask? Why, her mother, of course! Connor grinned as he mounted his cycle, pulling on his helmet before speeding off to go to the hospital.
[[ Dun dun dun! ...
That was my fail idea. |D
Just got you all hyped up for no reason. xD
I'm evil. ;-; ]]

My heart hammered in my chest as he spoke. Even, once his back was toward me, tears pooled in my eyes. Did I really make it seem like I thought I was better? I searched my heart, and I couldn't find one bit of proof that I felt that way. I mean, it's obvious that I thought I was better then the girls that he dated - who gave themselves to him easily with that sexy grin and strong arms - but it wasn't like I was a judgmental person, right?
I sighed. It was obvious, I was. I didn't like Conner from the start because I judged him on his appearance. My cheeks burned, and I turned in my seat as I watched Conner go, every pore in my being wanting to run to him and apologize. My stomach turned to knots and I wondered why. I mean, now I won't ever see him again, I won't have to worry about it. He could find the prettiest girl alive and convince her for a date easily, he didn't need me.
~<><><><><><><><><><><>~
I had let one tear trace down my cheek as I parked into the parking lot of the hospital. I had a loved boyfriend back at La Pointe, a great successful career I had to give up, a mother deathly ill, a father that critiques everything I do and say, a sister that absolutely hates me...
And now I have to deal with a guy that actually wanted to give me the time of day, and how I could have just hurt his feelings.
I wiped my cheek angrily. This wasn't the time for my heart to be out there. I said that. But why had I gone and said that he got the easy girls? I sighed. I guess it was just because he had such a big ego, and I felt like he was thinking I was easy, from the wine last night. He deserved an apology. But thankfully, I'll never see him again.
I walked into the hospital, signed my name in the visitors page, and walked to the hallway that led to my mothers room. I opened the door to hear a masculine laugh, and my mother's laugh as well. I scowled, expecting it to be my father as I opened the door.
"Hey mo-"
I stopped dead in my tracks, my blue eyes widening at the visitor in my mother's room.
"Conner?"
I whispered, my jaw clenching. "What are you doing here?" I asked, my tone angry. My mothers happy face immediately turned to a frown, waving a pointed finger at me. "Don't you talk that way to him." She looked back at Conner, her blue eyes just like mine unblinking. "Finish the story dear." She said, the laughing back in her tone. I scowled at Conner before leaning against the wall by the door. Yeah, Conner. Finish your stupid story.
