Jon said right away.  <br/><br/>"Hey, Jon, I need a favor."  Jason stated.<br/><br/>Jon sighed and paused for a second. "You need a table for two, right?  That girl is smoking hot, isn't she?"<br/><br/>"You know me all too well, man. Can you do it? "  Jason asked, hopeful. The last thing he wanted to do was start to beg while Sophia sat next to him wondering what he was doing or who he was talking to.<br/><br/>There was a pause on the other line while Jon looked around his busy restaurant.  "Fine...  you own me for this though.  I'm going to have to take the fall on this, and try to convince everyone here that you had reservations and I just forgot to write them down.  She better be worth it."  <br/><br/>Jason looked over at Sophia, and smiled "She is, Jon.  She really is.  Thank you.  We are on our way."  <br/><br/>This night had really taken a huge turn for the better. <br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>She shook her head. "No, you're right on time. I'm so sorry I'm late." She said softly when she had been rushing around. She laughed softly when he laughed about her comment about Steve, and suddenly she felt very stupid. His laugh was so incredibly infectious though. His smile and laugh resounded in her mind.<br/><br/>She turned, and her face slowly began to fall when he began saying how he had low expectations of a girl who knew Steve, and who was willing to go on a blind date. The last words that left his mouth after those two comments made her smile and blush.<em>'But I had too little faith in him, it seems.'</em>How sweet was that?<br/><br/>Sophia simply smiled after this comment and she nodded when he prompted their departure. She had a very big problem when she was nervous, she would usually talk very quickly and in various amounts of quantity. Usually her dates would want to shoot themselves by the end of the date, but she just enjoyed having a good time. He seemed so sweet and charming, she had to make a good impression. So, she attempted to stay quiet and only make a few small comments here or there. This did not promise to last long, though.<br/><br/>When he opened the passenger side door, she smiled at him and her eyes simply glowed and sparkled in his direction. She was very unique in this way, her eyes told a story that her mouth could never express. You could read her like a book through her deep emerald green eyes. "Oh, I'm.. quite simple, I promise.. Don't--" But he was already out of the car and she just shook her head, giving a soft laugh. She pulled down his mirror on the passenger site, opened the lid and the light shot into her eyes. "Ouch." It was around seven o clock in the evening and winter was quickly approaching, so it was already quite dark and the sudden change in light hurt her eyes for a moment. Her eyes adjusted, and then she wiped her eye gently, fixing her hair a bit, and she ran her finger along the bottom of her lip, wiping a bit of lip gloss that did not quite find her lip.<br/><br/>She closed it when she saw him hang up the phone and slowly flipped it back up to meet the ceiling of his car.<br/><br/>When he entered the car again, she smiled as she watched him. "Now, you don't have to change a thing. The company is more important to me rather than where we spend the time together. Wow, that sounds incredibly cliche`, I'm sorry." She gave a soft laugh and realized she was already talking too much. "Any chance I'll get you to tell me where we're going?" He seemed like the kind who enjoyed to surprise his dates, and it was also good that she enjoyed surprises, then, wasn't it? She loved surprises but more often than not, she was able to coax her date or boyfriend into telling her where they were going or what gift he had bought her for whatever the holiday may be.<br/><br/>(OOC:Long posts are just fine. I have the very opposite problem with my roleplay partner. She posts long at first, and then it slowly fades down into a few lines. Absolutely frustrating, let me tell you! lol But either way, I usually try to make up for her lack of creativity/long post. So far, you're a dream come true =) I feel very odd that anyone can come here and read our roleplay. Oh, it will be so nice when we are both approved. lol)
