Riley had been looking forward to the musical immensely and maybe even a little bit more since Jace had asked, well, told her to come out with him afterward. She liked him, she did but she had been hesitant. Everything with Wyatt, or everything on her end and that was it anyway, had made things complicated. She hadn't dated since she had run off back to Boston and seeing him again and trying to decide if she really wanted to get back into the dating game, it was hard. But as the days went on, it because increasingly more apparent that she did need to move on. And that was exactly what she was going to do.
After her own show had wrapped, she actually took her time in changing and even redid her hair and makeup. Not only that, but she even dressed up a bit for the occasion. She couldn't very well go out with the star from the show and look like a bum now could she? No, of course not! So after getting ready and hurrying over to the theater, she sat back and waited to be amazed, which she was. The whole show had been hysterical and she couldn't remember the last time she had laughed so hard.
After the show, she waited for everyone to funnel out and deliberately made sure that she didn't somehow accidentally bump into Wyatt along the way. When she spotted Jace, a bright smile lit up her face and she leaned in to press a kiss to his cheek. "I don't know how I feel about being a cougar, but you're cute so why not?" she joked in reference to his having played a teenager. "This is cute by the way," she said as she reached up and touched the lightning bolt on his forehead. "I think you should leave it. Shall we?"
