Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 58 - Let's Go Beautiful

April panicked she was now all dressed up and on her way to a date with Dean. He was the Cities most eligible bachelor and she knew any woman would literally kill to be in position. But as a girl who was now living her life for the second time and she had never been on a date before she had already decided that she didn't intend on going on one... Ever.

The thought of falling again and tasting bitter betrayal filled her heart with dread, "Let's go back then."

Dean glanced in April's direction and had noticed the worry written all over her face, did she not know that he could be trusted. He would never let her down or hurt her, he would rather carve out his own heart than see her in pain.

With a smile, he responded, "Sure what's one more meal together? We are out now anyway... You have got to eat anyway so we may as well eat together?"

April knew he was right, she had cooked for him and had had a few meals together so far anyway. She thought it over for a moment, even if she did go home she realized that this shameless man would probably talk her into inviting him in and cooking for him again regardless. She bit her lip, "Okay, sure. If we go home now I'll only end up cooking for us anyway."

Deans smile grew, "If you would rather cook for me I don't mind chilling at yours tonight." There was a hint of teasing in his words.

"No no no, wherever you picked is fine." April cheeks heated up, she did not want this man anywhere near her condo, he was causing chaos in her heart and now corrupting her mind too. She gave up and looked out of the window,?concluding that this man was pure temptation.

It wasn't a long drive before Dean pulled up at The Ivy. He parked himself as the thought of the valet eyeing up April and stealing his job of helping her out of thr car just wouldn't do. He turned off the car engine and looked at how adorable April was as she pretended that the scenery was the most interesting thing in the world. He took off his seat belt and got out quickly to get her door for her.

Reaching her door he opened it and put his hand out to help her out, he grinned and decided to tease her a bit more, "Let's go beautiful."

As expected April rolled her eyes at his flattery and took his hand as she got out of the car.

Dean was sure his hand would be ignored as usual, but she surprised him. His heart leapt at her small action, they fit perfectly together. He intertwined their hands and lead her into the restaurant with a genuine smile on his face.

April didnt notice that she still was holding on to Deans hand instead she was too busy fighting her nerves and holding his hand had helped to calm them. She took in their surroundings as Dean walked them inside the restaurant. She noticed how everyone's eyes followed Dean once they were inside. She moved slightly behind him but he didnt let her hide he pulled her to his side.

"Smile... Your smile could light up the night sky with its beauty." Dean whispered in her ear.

She felt his warm breath near her ear and heard his gentle whisper both did unspeakable things to her. But his words had made her laugh. Where did he get these pickup lines? Did the City know the number one hottest bachelor was actually this cheesy?

The building and decor were charming and rustic, with elegant modern touches. You could relax by the cosy log burner in the corner, which April thought would be perfect for winter evenings. Dean then lead her to a private room that had a stunning view for them to enjoy. It overlooked an open pretty courtyard filled with flowers and twinkling lights in the trees.

Dean didn't want to let go of her hand, but he resolved his heart hoping that now she had done it once he would be able to do it again. He let go and pulled out a chair for her, she sat and continued to glance outside. He was happy she appreciated the view. He had spent hours researching where to bring her as this date was too meaningful to mess up. He then took off his leather jacket and sat down facing her.

April smiled and turned her head to see Dean just gazing at her, she nervously tucked her hair behind her ear and glanced at the menu, "So do you know what's good to eat here?"

'You' was the thought that ran through Deans head but he didnt utter it aloud. Instead, he cleared his throat, "It is all homemade, there's some delicious Italian dishes, seafood, steaks, and pasta. So order whatever you like?"

April glanced at the menu, she wasn't fussy and doubted she could eat with her nerves, "You pick for me." She then put down the menu and looked anywhere except at the man sitting opposite her.

Dean nodded and when the waiter arrived he ordered drinks and food for the both of them.

He wanted to know more about her, her likes, her thoughts, her dreams and wishes but he was at a loss. Not one for dating himself he had very little knowledge to rely on. April was nervous so he had to break the ice.

"What's your favourite colour and why?" Dean asked.

April looked at Dean and smiled at the question, realizing what he was doing and she knew they couldn't sit in silence all night, "Black is my favourite colour... Do you know what giving someone a black rose means? Black roses are known to represent optimism and hope. Basically telling them you believe in them. Many people think that giving a black rose would represent the opposite."
