Now that he was not as drunk he could think a bit more clear. "I slept fine" he said quietly. He just needed to get over that but he would work on it he felt. Now however he was awake but he did not mind it. Plus there was the issue of his clothes, he really should get dressed but he would get to that in a minute right at the moment the cover was enough though the feathers were a new thing to him but not one that he minded in all truth. "I did not mind to wake you I just was out of my drunk phase and I remembered the things that we spoke of and just wanted to make sure it was still okay." He blinked a few times and shrugged. "It's not a big deal though." Alice Seraphim

Alice didn't really do bathrobes and that was something he'd find out in time. "Off course it's still okay. And things will develop in time" she softly replied before she got out of bed. She at least kept her panties on and selected a tennis style dress that was short as her way of coverage. Now dressed she suggested "do you feel up for orange juice and waffles?" She was anyway along with some pain killers. Then after the first cup of coffee she'd be fully awake. She had to go to work and most likely have to explain what happened at the dive bar as soon as she got in. Not just to her partner as she gave her section chief quite a headache most of the time.

He honestly hated himself for being such a gentlemen at times but it was fine. "Yeah that sounds fine I can help?" he said. "Or we can do it together or which ever way it is that is easier for you," he said as he finally found his clothes and began to get dressed. It felt almost nice though he had still been drunk and he was still figuring out the lines of the relationship, of the friendship. He shook his head. "You should sleep in my bed next time," he said. "I just think that it would be nice and stuff like that." Alice Seraphim

Lucas did sound like a gentleman last night as they had tangled before sleep took them. She'd get properly dressed later as she couldn't go to work in just a tennis dress. He also offered to help with breakfast as basic as it would be. She could have ordered some in but she didn't like bothering the staff this early in the morning. So kept enough basic breakfast items to get herself organised in the morning. She smiled and cheerfully replied "if you want to help you can. And you hosting next time sounds good to me." She was using a french press to make her coffee and a toaster to brown and heat the pre-made waffles. She was also looking round for the syrup. "I will be able to cook better once I get my own place. Those gated apartments are probally nicer than the room I have now". As she started on the coffee that left Lucas the waffles to toast. She did have another question to ask of him. "That wasn't exactly a date but it felt like one at the end. So what do you want to do next time?" Lucas Roberts

"Okay," he said. He knew how to say more than okay it just seemed like the easiest word to say now as he finally was dressed appropriately enough and followed Alice. "Yeah I hear they are real nice but they take forever to get into but worth the wait." He needed to set up getting one sooner rather than later. He carefully put the waffles in and watched them as he listened to her speak. He agreed that it was not a date as he thought. He'd never been the type to go forward and take a girl on a date but that was because he was awkward. "Well," he said quietly. "How about you tell me a date that you do not want, regardless of if you have already had it or just do not like it and then I can plan around that?" He thought that might be easier. "Would also depend on if you want it to be inside or outside, I am good with either." Alice Seraphim

"I've just got to be patient" Alice replied shrugging her shoulders. It would happen eventually but she had zero control of how long that would take. Lucas then had something to say. "I haven't had much experience of dates and I haven't found one I disliked. However I've heard about this night time boat trip. It's also a bar and restaurant. Not super fancy but a step up from a dive bar" she curiously posed. Going super fancy would be something they could build up too given she hadn't much experience of that kind of thing never mind dates in general. She'd have to wear a dress to it but it wouldn't have to be a high end one. She wore pants a lot of the time so a dress was a change for her. Lucas Roberts

"Hm," he said as he took a second and grabbed the waffles with tongs once they were done. He handed Alice some on a plate and spoke. "That sounds good. I am sure I can find something to wear that is appropriate for the occassion." He thought that might require flowers too but he would study it a little more. "I think it will be fun and nice." Lucas liked nice but he liked different too and that seemed different. "I'll try to shoot for a few days from now if we are both able to go, need a reservation I would think but that should be easy enough." Alice Seraphim

Alice knew this would depend on their schedules lining up and she looked cheerful and happy when Lucas said he'd look into it. With it a slightly higher level of venue they should be able to dine, perhaps have some music and a dance and finish it off with looking out at sea with a cocktail in hand. Then once back at his place they might get a bit further on regarding knowing each other. It all sounded good in her head as she finally located the syrup and let Lucas use it first. The reality might well be different but they know by doing. So advancing to a few days down the line things looked quite likely for them. She was looking through her dresses the night before so she'd know what to wear if Lucas confirmed the booking. Lucas Roberts

Everything would work out as it needed or so he had always hoped. As the next few days went on he had a lot of work but luckily he was able to get enough done so that he was able to confirm the booking. He took a minute to take a break from his work that night. It had not been a lot that day but he needed and wanted to get it done. He had decided to give her a call that night to let her know as he dialed her number and the phone rung. Alice Seraphim

The phone rang and she seen who the sender was. A little smile followed as she answered. "Hello Lucas. How are you?" she posed sounding cheerful even over a phone signal. Having gotten time to get used to Lucas she had happy thoughts of him and a bounce in her step. Things had clearly moved on past pool and beer. Lucas Roberts

He was busy but happy. "I'm doing well, how about you?" he asked. He did not question himself as much when it came to Alice but he still had yet to really iniatie anything but he felt that would come in time. "I am simply calling to let you know I did manage to get a reservation for the night if you still wanted to go on the boat trip. I'll need to swing by and shower at my apartment but after that we can meet up and see how it turns out if you'd like." Alice Seraphim

How are you? A question everybody had a different answer to but in her case she'd had to do CSI at the general store bloodbath. Even with all she'd seen so far this took senseless crime to a whole new level and she felt really bad for the little asian girl once she would wake up. She didn't seem to have any other family on the island. That was two days ago and she'd been juggling that case along with others since then. So a night out seemed really neccesary. She couldn't and wouldn't talk about cases in detail but she did answer the question in a positive manner. "I've had a rough case but dealing with it. A reservation sounds good to me and I can still make it. So what time do I need to be ready for?" And before you'd know it was date night and she was getting ready. She had settled for a two piece look that was a light pink halter top and a black wrap round short skirt. Casual but smart and it felt warm enough to not need a jacket. Add in little flat shoes as she didn't do heels and her look was complete. Lucas Roberts

"I am sorry to hear that but we can talk about it over dinner if you want" he said. "Around 8 or 815 should be fine" he said. "I'll see you then and I am sure you will do great on the case." Lucas had no reason to encourage people but he traced it back to having parents who were entirely too encouraging though he liked it now. Finally he had gotten around to getting ready and meeting Alice. He had promised himself that this time he would be more calm and maybe his camflauge would play nice but he did not know. As he spotted her, he handed her a white rose and sighed. "You look nice" he said. "I was going to go with a whole dozen roses but I did not want to overwhelm or over do it so one won out in the end." Alice Seraphim

Alice smiled seeing the single white rose and hearing what Lucas had to say. The last couple of days had been hard but hopefully tonight they could do something without her needing to draw her revolver again or be on duty. It felt wrong to always be armed but she couldn't do anything about that. Her outfit would give him plenty to look at for starters and perhaps give him encouragement to advance things further tonight. "Thank you Lucas. One rose is plenty for me" she happily replied and gave him a kiss. And off they went after she closed her door over. It wasn't fully dark yet but it wouldn't be long till it was. Her cute buckle up sandals made the walk feel comfortable and he was well dressed too. She slipped her hand into his while during this short walk and the sea breeze kept things nice and cool. They weren't the only ones out tonight and you also had the marina people looking stylish and out on the town. She did wonder when the island would get to the point of being able to have cruise ships put into port and that would give a new variable to island life. More proper tourists than they had already.

Lucas was trying to always discover new things so as he walked and they held hands he looked too. He wanted to know about everything but not to the point where he was not doing well by others, besides it felt nice to hold Alice's hand as they walked. Ships coming in if the island got to that point would always be a welcomed sight. He turned to her as they were waiting to be checked in. "This will be a first for me but I find that I am not as nervous as I thought. It's so" he paused. Romantic was the word that he wanted to use but he stopped. "It's just very nice is all" he said as he tucked his lip in for a second as he thought. Alice Seraphim
