{this is meant for the date that Lorina owes Lex}
"I don't get what's your angle here Lex. I mean what exactly is your use for that odd girl I'm mean she is pretty and all but you never go out with someone just because you always have a reason. so what's your reason or is there something up you dont want me to know about" Julian was interrogating Lex as Lex was making some preparations.
Lex was in his in Jeans and a loose fitting dress shirt being measured by his tailor
Eve sat in the corner watching quietly wanting to know why Lex was going out with this new girl.
"Julian there is plenty I do I'd rather you not know about, but in regards to Ms. Tetch my interests in her are romantic that is best word to describe it. She makes me smile a real smile and that is a true rarity so I'd like to see how far I can take it" Lex said to them "I know its surprising but I do want companionship and I do from time to time take an interest in certain women. It's just that I am very discerning in my choice of partner."
"You actually like a girl that isnt Eve or Talia? that is unbelievable well I guess have fun and good luck" Julian said in return then went and sat next to Eve. Putting his arm around her silently comforting her.
the tailor finished and left the room to go to work. Lex walked over to his dresser, picked up his cell phone and dialed Lorina's number.

Lorina was underneath a large vehicle that was shaped like a Rabbit. She heard her phone ring and went out from underneath to answer it. She was absolutely covered in grease, and wore a white t-shirt which read "we're all mad here" and a pair of cut offs. She didn't recognize the number, but answered. "Hello?"

"its Alexander Frost I'm calling to collect on that date. There is this trendy new restaurant in williamsburg, I know you'll enjoy." Lex responded with an uncharacteristic look of anxiousness but keeping his normal regal tone of voice.

Lorina looked at her project, she had wanted to finish working on it that evening. But she was getting hungry. "Well...I'm in the middle of something but I could spend some time away. What sort of dress is this?"

Lorina looked at her project, she had wanted to finish working on it that evening. But she was getting hungry. "Well...I'm in the middle of something but I could spend some time away. What sort of dress is this?" "Well not to spoil too much of the surprise but it is a themed restaurant, so something along the lines of what you were wearing to the fundraiser would do nicely. perhaps something slightly more comfortable though Let me know where to pick you up" Lex said eying a bottle of absinthe he bought for the occasion

Lorina gave the address of her home. "Just give me two hours to get cleaned up. I'll see you then."She hung up her phone and began covering up her vehicle. "perfection, see you then darling" Lex hung up smiling. Lex spent the next hour or so getting ready. then at the specified time a sparkling white Bentley State Limousine pulled up to address Lorina gave Lex. The driver beeped then stepped out and open the door for Lex who stepped out wearing a white victorian-esque suit with a long frock coat double breasted vest.(think gary oldman in dracula) white gloves a walking stick that looked like a royal scepter and a white top hat accented with a decorative and royal looking medallion made of polished electrum.

Lorina stepped out of her front door and gave Lex a small wave when she saw him. She wore her hair in an updo, with a small red headdress with a veil that covered her left eye. Her dress was sleeveless and red, with a heart brocade design on the fabric. Her bustle skirt trailed behind her. Lorina's arms were exposed, and she had the card suits tattooed on her arms. "Nice to see you again Lex, the wood carving is extraordinary."

She laughed.

"a welcome addiction what a lovely Freudian slip. but I'm happy that my gift was so well received and I am planning to play on your obsession again tonight to further get inot your good graces." Lex said getting int the limo and pouring Lorina an absinthe. "This lovely placed called "Alice in magic world" opened up and its themed in Alice in wonderland and through the looking glass such elaborate and beautiful designs and decorations I figured you would especially enjoy it. Its why I am dressed so garishly tonight you dine with the white king" Lex said handing Lorina her drink and tapping the window to signal the drive to go.

"We shall." Lorina looked down at her waist and gently wriggled out of his touch. She still had a problem with intimacy.
She looked around with her jaw dropped at the restaurant. "This is...very cool I must say."

"We shall." Lorina looked down at her waist and gently wriggled out of his comics. She still had a problem with intimacy. She looked around with her jaw dropped at the restaurant. "This is...very cool I must say." "yes it, Glad you like it" Lex loosing his hold on her as they walk noticing her reticence. He hoped that by the end of the night she would be more comfortable with him and his touch. They arrived at there table is was painted to resemble a giant playing card. The king of diamonds of course that what Lex would pick. Lex ever the noble gentleman pushed out a chair for the Lady. "if it pleases" whilst he ordered drinks "I take scotch neat. the absinthe and the bottle of ace of spades I had special ordered" Lex said handing the bottle of absinthe to the waiter "they dint have absinthe at the ready so I brought my own"

Lorina took her seat. She smiled at the environment, looking completely pleased. "You make me sound obsessed with absinthe. No need to go to such lengths."
She looked over to him. "But they are appreciated."

"But they are appreciated.""no I just figure after the circumstances of our first meeting to make sure to have it would be a good idea." Lex noticed Lorina taking the scenery but he just concerned himself with her and her eyes he debated on whether or not to enter her mind. He decided against it at the moment reasoning she is more charming when she can catch him by surprise. "So while we wait for drinks lets chat I did so want to talk to you all night when we met but circumstances were such that that couldn't happen. So here we are in this wonderful place all to our selves and you have my undivided attention." Lex said shedding the top hat and gloves making himself more comfortable, and keeping his gaze on her's with a look of searching in the distance. He was looking at her searching wondering at every moment what is next and whether to enter her mind.
