She had to admit, she was alittle nervous, this was her first "date" with him...her first date ever. *I suppose I couldnt have picked a better person to have a first date with* She tried to reason the feeling away; It was Shand, he loved her, she loved him, no doubt about that but why did one word, "date", make her nervous to see him? Was it the fact that she didnt want to make a fool of herself and blow it all? No, that wasnt it..she felt pretty confident in their relationship and doubted one date could ruin it. Then why? The thought hit her just then. Not only was she going on her first date but she was "meeting" his father as well. Now, she had met Dolan before..several times actually but their relationship was that of a brother and sister that could never agree. She didnt dislike him and she didnt think he disliked her, if nothing else she had a great respect and friendly love for the man, but still, she was worried that she'd say something then he'd disagree, throwing the whole date off. Quickly, as she was putting on the necklace she never left the house without, the necklace Shand gave her, she went into her room, grabbed a pen and wrote on the inside of her wrist, "Watch what you say." She figured that would be enough of a warning, she really didnt want to ruin this date for anyone, especially Micaela who was Dolan's date. A smile formed on her face; *A double date..Me and Shand with Micaela and Dolan* She actually found herself laughing out loud and then covered her mouth shocked at herself. She looked around the room quickly to see if anyone had heard...No one was around, they had left her to get ready an hour ago. Sighing, she grabbed her purse and walked downstairs. "Well, how do I look?" She looked around at her people before her. Pharris examined her closely, "Eh, not the dress I would've picked, but it'll do." Locke laughed, "It concerns me that you just said 'the dress I would've picked'." Pharrsi shot him a glare, "You know what I meant." Chantelle walked up to her, "You look great." Samantha smiled and looked around at the others who nodded in approval, or, occasionally, gave a thumbs up. The sound of a throat clearing brought her attention back to Locke, "Alright, you know the rules." She rolled her eyes, "Get back no later than ten, you'd prefer no touching at all but you know how stupid I thought that was so you limited the kissing to no more than three seconds, which you consider gracious on your part, and all leftovers go to you. Yes, I know the rules, father."She smiled at Locke who simply sighed and rolled his eyes, "Listen, I'm not trying to be all fatherly, alright? It's just fo-" "For my safety, I know. Seriously, though? I'm going to be with Micaela,Shand and DOLAN, what could possibly happen?" Everyone laughed except for Locke who crossed his arms infront of his chest and looked at the clock, "They're late." Everyone sighed then Sidra spoke up, "Give them a brake, they dont exactly live close." And, as if it were cued, the doorbell rang. She couldnt help the smile that formed on her face upon hearing the noise. As she went for the door, Locke went ahead of her and beat her to it. There they were, all three of them standing on the from porch, Shand slightly infront of Micaela and Dolan.Locke eyed Shand from head to toe then took in a breath. Slowly, Locke halfway shut the door and turned back to Samantha, "I change my mind about the three seconds, no more than one second." She rolled her eyes, "Locke, please, it's Shand, you know him, dont worry." After he eyed her, she reached around him and yanked open the door all the way to see the trio standing there slightly shocked.
