Chapter 80: First Dinner Date

She was too embarrassed to tell him that at the moment.

"No, I'm fine," Ruby answered. She took her eyes off of his face for a moment and looked down at her hands. She was trying to think through the buzz that was going through her head.

Steven looked down at her and looked at Ruby again. She could tell that he was also a little bit shocked and surprised that she was looking down at her hands.

"Do you want to go eat?" he implored, his voice barely audible.

"Yeah, sure! " She said, 

"I'm starving! Come on, let's order the food," he said.

Ruby sat there quietly, looking down at her hands as Steven told the waiter that they were going to order dinner. Steven looked at Ruby again as he spoke. Ruby could tell that Steven was looking a little bit at her lips as he talked. She felt herself blush all over again. It felt like her cheeks were on fire. She had never felt this way before. She was so attracted to him. She felt like she was in a dream, like a dream about how wonderful he was, how handsome he looked, how nice he sounded. She could feel herself more attracted to him.

She came out of her daydream when the waiter left, he had returned with two menus. They both looked down at it.

"Your choice," The waiter said. Ruby looked up at Steven in confusion.

"I'm going to order for both of us," Steven said. His voice was so loud and clear that Ruby could hear him.

"Oh, okay," Ruby said. She finally looked up at Steven.

He ordered two dishes and red wine and asked the waiter to send it fast. She was about to ask him why he asked her to come to dine with him. But she was interrupted by the waiter.

"Excuse me," He said. "Your order is ready."

The waiter placed the plates of food on the table and left. Steven and Ruby looked at the food. Steven looked at Ruby, she looked back at him. A nervous smile came across his lips.

"Ruby," Steven said, "Could I… Could I talk to you for a moment?" Ruby nodded, her head nervously.

Steven looked back down at the food he was eating. 

" Thanks for coming..." he said.

She smiled and asked him, " why do you ask me to come for dinner? Why me?" 

" You are hardworking and sincere. You are the one who respects me but not seeing my status. I saw many women trying to take advantage of my generosity but you are different from others," he replied.

Ruby was surprised by Steven's answer. She was happy that he saw her as hardworking and sincere but she was very confused about why he came to see her.

She was too nervous to eat but she could feel that Steven was also enjoying himself. He was so confident around her and he was making her feel special. She couldn't help but smile.

"If you weren't dating a guy like me, then who would you be happy with?" he asked. 

Ruby felt her stomach drop. "I don't know," she said. " I was never into guys in my life."

It was the first time she had said those words to him. Steven was surprised. He had not expected her to say it. It was some of the nicest words he had ever heard her say. Steven couldn't help but be impressed by her.

"How about we slow dance..." Steven said. He was enjoying himself.

Ruby was nervous and she didn't know what to do.

She thought about it carefully before saying, "I… I don't know if I can."

"Why not? I know you can't dance. I can help you," Steven said.

"Oh, I don't know," Ruby said. Steven could tell that she was nervous.

"I don't want you to feel uncomfortable, Ruby. I just want to be with you. Please forget I am your boss but your friend. I want to make you feel special," Steven said. He was getting closer to her, he was standing in front of her now.

She could feel her face getting hot, it felt like it was on fire. She felt aching down her chest.

"If you say so..." Ruby replied. She didn't know what to say.

Ruby was about to say something when the waiter came back, Steven had finished his dinner. He placed the red wine and served it in two glasses.

"Enjoy," the waiter said.

They both took a sip of their drinks.

Ruby was overwhelmed with joy. She was nervous but a little bit of alcohol had started to kick in. She was feeling a little better.

He extended his palm and took her to the dance floor where a few couples were already dancing to the slow music. He placed his hand on her waist and started moving along with the music beat. 

"So why did you pick me out of the whole lot?" Ruby asked. She was teasing him. 

" I have my reasons," Steven said.

Ruby was taken aback by his answer. She was trying to figure out what he meant by that.

"What reasons?" she asked.

Before he opened his mouth to explain, at the same time he got a call from his house. Still dancing on the floor, he talked over the phone. When he ended the call, he noticed she placed her face on his chest. Then he sensed that she cannot tolerate alcohol. She could not stand properly on her feet. 

He gently took her to his car and made her sit in the front seat. He sat in the driver seat and patted her cheeks with his palms slowly as she was sleeping.

She lazily opened her eyes and smiled at him.

He drove the car to drop her safely at her house. He quickly drove the car in between staring at her. He woke her as soon as they reached her house.

" We reached your house. " He informed her by patting her cheeks.

" Thanks for taking me for a nice dinner. " She said.

" Then we can go again …" he replied with a smile.

" I forgot to thank you properly on the day you saved me from that client" she informed and leaned closer to him.

He cupped his face and kissed his cheek . He was shocked by her kiss. He pulled her closer as he could not control his attraction towards her. She leaned in towards him and let her lips touch his. His lips were the first to touch hers. Ruby felt a tingling sensation from his lips. She felt like she wanted to keep kissing him all night.. Slowly, he laid his hand on her shoulder.
