"I know you don't want to rush me or pressure me and thank you for that, but that's not it at all. I haven't been on an actual date in a long time and I am ready. I'd like to date you, too." Ali smiled at him and blushed slightly as he mentioned that she and Bree each had the other's lipstick on their face. She did her best to wipe it off of her face and just smiled a little bit. "Oh...you noticed that, did you? Nothing's changed. Bree's not very experienced and she was insecure about some things so I was helping her find something out. One thing kind of led to another. I'm still very much interested in you, Jim." Ali didn't want to tell him that she was actually feeling a lot of things for her best friend because she felt as if nothing would come out of it. With Bree, Ali would take what she could get and if one night was all that would happen..she was happy with that. She thought that focusing on someone else, not using Jim because she'd never do that, would help get her mind off all those pesky feelings she'd had for Bree during their friendship.
