"AJ it is gorgeaus..." Chia walked out of the dressing room and twirled in front of the mirror.
"Chia I am speechless." AJ admired the way the chocolate brown dress clung to Chia's curves, the way the straps settled in the hollows of her shoulders..."
"It is too expensive AJ, I cannot let you buy this for me..." Chia protested.
"It is already paid for...now go get dressed." AJ pulled Chia in close and kissed her...He had an evening planned that would help Chia get her mind off of her for a couple of hours..

"Frick...I really like her...."
"Nick, she is involved with Howie...man you sure know how to complicate your life.." Brian felt for Nick.
"I can't stop thinking about her, shit.." Nick knew he didnt stand a chance with Allie but he also could not control the way he felt..."I know Bri...I know, I just have to suck it up and look for some other girl...
Nick hung up and walked over to the tv and turned it on, he flipped through the channels and di not find anything that interested him. He reached for his phone and dialed the hotel where his brother, who was on tour was staying..."Dammit he isn't in..." Nick missed his little brother like crazy, with both of them touring they had not seen each other in over 7 months...Nick laid back on the couch and was soon asleep.

Allie was dressed and waiting for Howie when the phone rang.
"Hello..Hi Chia...no Howie will be here in about 5 minutes...Yes you can borrow my black strappy sandals....ooooh well have fun and be careful. " Allie smiled as she hung up the phone. Apparently AJ had a surprise planned for her sister..."Crazy..they are both crazy they deserve each other." She realized that she didn't have her watch on and ran upstairs to get it..On her way back down she heard the doorbell..
"Coming" she screamed and rushed to open the door.
"Oh hello.."Allie was surprised to see a florist holding a long box..
"Are you Miss Allie Simons?"
"Yes I am.."
"Please sign here.." The delivery man watched as she signed the sheet and then handed her the box..
"Thanks.." Allie waved goodbye and shut the door.
She opened the box and saw a dozen calla lillies. "Oh my god they are beautiful" Allie smiled when she read the card..
"I know these are your favourite flowers and I wanted to start our first date off with a smile...see you soon...Howie"
"How sweet" Allie walked into the kitchen to arrange them in a vase and while she was arranging them she saw Howie's jaguar pull into her lane way. She smiled and hurried to finish the arrangement. She pulled at her curls and went to meet him at the door.
"Hi Howie." Allie smiled as she saw howie dressed in fitted black jeans, black shoes, a black shirt and leather jacket.
"Wow, I didn't even ring the doorbell..." Howie was shocked to see Allie waiting for him in the doorway.
" I saw you pull up..."Allie leaned over and kissed his cheek..."thank you so much for the flowers, they are beautiful and you definatly made me smile"
Howie smiled "I am glad you liked them, so are you ready?"
"Yes I am excited to see Sarah in concert, do I look okay, you told me to dress casual, I hope I am not to casual."
Howie examined her well worn, fitted jeans, her black fitted shirt and the wooly blue sweater tied around her waist. "You look great..let's go."
Howie opened the door to his car and Allie slid in.
