She had been so caught up in the planning, but she had at least managed to remember to tell Freddy when and where they were going to meet

Freddy had been getting nervous from the lack of the second date. Sure, he saw Anita constantly and she always had been in a good mood but when the talk of the second date came up she said she was working it out, but fuck if he didn't get antsy and think maybe she was putting it off. He'd used a lot of self control to not sigh in relief when she finally told him the time and place.
He hated the fact dates were impossinle to dress for. It was always over dressed or underdressed, and he'd figured he'd just compromise because there was no way he was going to look like an idiot. Just a pair of clean jeans, a clean non-logoed t-shirt and he felt presentable.
"Wow, are we to candlelit dinners already?" He asked, eyebrow raised and lips quirked when he came through the door, eyeing her with a faint grin. "I feel like I forgot to bring the rose mandatory for candlelit dinnes."
"Roses aren't necessary. And the candlelight is...well okay I couldn't think of another thing to put in the middle of the table." She smiled. "And it helps with the atmosphere."
She glanced up at the Karaoke machine. "I haven't bothered to look and see what music is offered. Between you and me I'm not singing, just to get that out there. But it'll be nice to actually want to listen to the music instead of wondering why it's playing that and doing your best to ignore it."
Atmosphere, atmosphere was a good thing. It meant progress, and while he didn't want to throw his mind into the gutter yet because he knew she was taking het time, his lips did twitch and he decided that progress was very good.
""I'll take a look, maybe just a little background music, nothing too flashy and turned down so we can hear each other." Because once again, atmosphere was good. He smiled, gave her and the table and aprecative look, and moved to look at the machine, which looked a hell of a lot different then anything he was familiar with and subsequently he just pushed a few buttons and tried to look at though he knew what he was doing. "It looks great Anita, a lot nicer than me dragging you out into nowhere." He glanced over at her with a grin.
She smiled. "I liked the whole going out to nowhere, but I figured this would be different." It had actually been fun dealing with the whole atmosphere aspect of it all; she wasn't likely to admit that though.
"Something in the background would be good." She took a glance at the table to make sure it was set up like she wanted and she took her seat. "It was harder than I expected trying to deal with all of this." She smiled. It wasn't be so bad sharing the responsibility.
