away.
Steven continued to stare down at the floor in disbelief, but as he thought about what had just happened, a smile slowly appeared across his face. He had a date with a gorgeous man. He wasn't mad at Thomas or even embarrassed anymore. He gave a slight giggle while he thought about his date, and then got back to work.
The next day flew by as Steven got ready for his date. He was so excited because he hardly ever met anyone outside the clinic and the ones that were there were usually sick. Steven knew that this was long overdue for him and that made this date all the more exciting. He was happy because he hardly ever got any male attention and although he hated to admit it, he often felt lonely.
When Steven got out of the shower and laid his clothes out to be ironed, he couldn't help but get a little nervous. Although he was happy he had found a sweet, sexy guy to spend some time with, he was feeling a little insecure. Steven hadn't been on a date or had a boyfriend in a long time and he didn't know how to act. He began to worry about how James would receive him on the date and if he was engaging and outgoing enough to keep his attention. He tried to shake the doubt and feelings of nervousness off but it stayed with him in the back of his head as the time for the date drew closer.
Steven had just finished getting ready when he heard a knock on the door. He looked down at his watch to see that it was seven fifty-nine. James was right on time. Steven took a deep breath and opened the door.
The door opened revealing a gorgeous James decked out in fine apparel. He felt a lump in his throat and his heart raced whilst he looked at the fine specimen standing in front of him.
"Hi," Steven said.
"Hi there." James smiled as he looked at Steven. "Are you ready to go?" he asked holding his hand out.
With a nod, Steven and James were off on their date, walking hand in hand.
While Steven rode in James's car he couldn't help but feel awkward, somewhat insecure and a little nervous around James. His thoughts from earlier started to kick back in and wear him down a bit. He spent most of the ride looking out the window at other cars and surroundings.
As they drove on the awkwardness seem to get worse and the silence was disturbing. "Is something wrong?" James asked as he alternated between glancing at Steven and the road.
Steven shook his head, however, that didn’t stop James from searching for Steven's hand as he tried to break the awkwardness in the car.
"You know, I'm a little nervous too," James said whilst looking over to Steven.
Steven turned his attention to James. "Really?" he asked, not believing someone like James would ever be nervous. "You are?"
James nodded. "Yeah, I mean it's always a little nerve-racking when you go out with someone for the first time. Especially if you haven't been on a date in a while. Not to mention when it's with someone as cute as you."
Steven smiled. Knowing that James was feeling the same way made him feel a lot better about the situation. He felt like they were on an even playing field now and that he could just be himself.
After a few more minutes of driving they came up to a restaurant called Scheherazade's. Steven felt overjoyed when he saw the restaurant. He thought it was great that he and James had something else in common.
"This is my favorite place," Steven said unbuckling his seat belt.
"Really?" James asked, a mix of happiness and shock in his voice. "It's mine too." He got out of his car and walked over to Steven and opened the door for him, then they walked into the restaurant, hand in hand.
Scheherazade's was one of the best restaurants in the city. The eatery was nothing but elegant with its red and white velvet décor highlighted by the chandeliers and fountain. Although it looked very expensive, it was quite affordable, at least compared to other restaurants in the area, not to mention the food was superb.
Steven and James walked to the hostess stand.
