March 17

(A bit after 8, Lynnon and Ezekiel hear the door knock)

Lynnon-" I'll get it"

(Lynnon gets up and walks to the door. She opens it to see Mei and Akira dressed up nicely. Mei wore a cute pastel pink flowing dress. It was strapless and had a very faint flower pattern on it. Akira on the other hand a bit more of a sophisticated look. She wore a black skin-tight dress that went down to her knees. It had very short sleeves and a collar that went up and covered her neck. Mei passes a bag to Lynnon)

Mei-" Ezekiel said you needed a dress. Here, you can keep it. I also put some earrings in there"

Lynnon-" Ok thanks"

(Lynnon takes the bag and heads to her room to change. Mei and Akira walk in. Akira looks around since this WAS her first time in the apartment)

Akira-" I should've known your brother had a house like this. You guys are loaded"

(Akira and Mei make themselves comfortable and sit down in the living room with Ezekiel. After a bit, Ezekiel could tell that it was probably time for the girls to leave but Mei and Akira didn't seem to mind that Lynnon was taking a while to get ready. He suddenly gets up and walks to Lynnon's room, the girls don't notice as they were both on their phones. He knocks on the open door)

Ezekiel-" Bear?"

(Ezekiel hears Lynnons faint voice respond from the bathroom in the corner of her room)

Lynnon-" Sorry I'm coming"

(Lynnon walks out of the bathroom holding the shoes that she would wear and the necklace Ezekiel gave her on valentines day. The two of them make eye contact and Ezekiel blushes)

Lynnon-" I had trouble making my hair look good..."

(Lynnon was wearing natural makeup and a short white dress with slightly puffed sleeves. The sleeves were translucent and the fabric that covered the bust was cut low. Around her torso, the fabric was made to seem like it was wrapped around her and tied at the waist. Her hair was slicked back into a low ponytail. She wore the less expensive diamond earrings that Mei gave her along with the dress. Ezekiel walks into the room while Lynnon sat down and put on her heels. They were also white and had a strap that went around Lynnons ankles. She finishes putting them on and she stands back up and gives the necklace to Ezekiel)

Lynnon-" Could you?..."

(Lynnon turns around and moves her ponytail to the side. Ezekiel puts the necklace on her and looks at the back of her bare neck. He leans down and kisses it which made Lynnon blush)

Ezekiel-" I can finally do that now"

(Lynnon turns and looks in the big mirror on the wall with Ezekiel)

Ezekiel-" You look lovely, babe"

(Lynnon turns fully towards him and he gently pulls her close and holds her waist. Lynnon looks up at him)

Lynnon-" Next time. Let's go to a restaurant, just the two of us. Then I could dress up for you all over again"

(They both softly smile)

Ezekiel-" I like that idea"

(The two leave the room and meet up with the girls)

Akira-" You ready to go Lynnon?"

(Lynnon smiles)

Lynnon-" Mhm"

(Mei and Akira get up then grab Lynnons hand. They rush over to the door and Ezekiels walks to them after. He holds either side of the door while talking to the girls out in the hall)

Ezekiel-" I'll see you"

(Lynnon gives Ezekiel a quick kiss before leaving with the girls)

Ezekiel-" Bring her back before midnight"

Mei-" We will!"

(The girls walk away and their giggles slowly become less recognizable until they became silent. Ezekiel closes the door. The two girls get into the restaurant and it really was fancy. Lynnon wouldn't have survived if she didn't wear a dress. The girls sit down and the waiter gets their drinks)

Lynnon-" A waters fine. Thank you"

Mei-" Shirley temple"

Akira-" White wine would be perfect"

(The waiter finishes off their drinks while Lynnon and Mei sat dumbly, wondering why Akira got WINE. She looks over and sees their surprised faces)

Akira-" What?"

Lynnon-" Wine?"

(Akira scoffs and dramatically flips her hair)

Akira-" I'm 20 so I'm legal to drink. You two CHILDREN can't"

Lynnon-" You can drink at 20 here?"

Akira-" Mhm. Americans start drinking at 21 right?"

Lynnon-" Yeah"

Akira-" Well I promise if you and Ezekiel aren't still a thing by the time you turn 20, I'm taking you out to drink"

(Akira points at Mei)

Akira-" You'd have to wait a few more months though Mei"

(Lynnon look over at Mei)

Lynnon-" You're 18 aren't you?"

Mei-" yeah, barely though. I was 17 when we met"

Lynnon-" What?! Really? I should've asked you when your birthday was. I'm sorry"

Mei-" Nah, you're good. So I don't make the same mistake, when's your birthday?"

(Lynnon smiles nervously)

Lynnon-" In a few days actually"

(Both Mei and Akira freak)

Akira-" What, when?"

Lynnon-" On the 17th"

Mei-" That's St Patricks Day right?"

Lynnon-" Yeah. Lucky me?"

(Lynnon giggles)

Lynnon-" I'm joking but really, that's my birthday"

Mei-" Does Ezekiel know"

Lynnon-" Of course he does. He wants to do something but he won't tell me what"

Akira-" He's probably going to buy out a whole art store for you or something"

Mei-" No, a whole mall!"

(The three girls laugh)

Akira-" But really, with how close you guys are, just seeing you two together makes me think he definitely wants to do something special for you"

(The waiter comes back and hands all the girls their drinks. Akira takes a sip of her wine)

Akira-" He treats you like a princess"
