WHO: Heather & Sam, then everyone! WHAT: A birthday outing, a proposal, and a party. WHEN: Starting in the early evening. WHERE: An over-the-top Italian restaurant; back at the house later. RATING: TBD. STATUS: Incomplete. NOTE:As soon as I post the mini-starter within this thread, anyone invited to her party can tag in! I'll edit this to let you know when that is. :D TAG IN, DUDES, TAG IN!
What had started out as a drive-in movie with butter-soaked popcorn and fizzing drinks had turned into a fancy dinner at an even fancier restaurant. That had definitely been unexpected, and Heather found herself hoping she was dressed up enough. Because she hadn't known where Sam would be taking her or what they would be doing, she decided to wear something a little more upscale than normal. Okay, so a black skirt and a grey sweater wasn't exactly upscale, but it was moreso than what a t-shirt and jeans would be. As she looked around, though, she didn't see people in gowns or anything, so she felt better about her own appearance.
"You really know how to pick a place, don't you?" she asked him across the table, smiling as the waiter left them to glance over the menus they'd been given.
Before flicking her gaze down to the laminated mini-novel in front of her, she eyed Sam for a few scrutinizing moments. He'd been a little strange tonight. Nervous, even. Everytime she tried to ask him about it, though, he was quick to mask it and she just forgot about it altogether. However, as they sat there, she couldn't help it anymore. He looked even more antsy than before.
