Chapter 6

I looked at myself in the mirror one more time. My hair was down on my shoulders.  I had a nude colored cropped hoodie on and a short black skirt. 

I bit my lips as I walked back to the bed to get my bag. I didn't know why I was doing this but I know I was waiting for Miguel to come to pick me up.

I told him I didn't want to go out but it was just a little date.

 It's not going to be so harmful. 

I looked at myself one more time in the mirror. My white socks were neatly arranged and my feet were stuck in white Nike sneakers. I looked good.

I had earlier told mom that I would be going out for dinner with a friend and all she said was. 

"Okay baby but remember you have a curfew and do make sure to come back before your dad gets home." 

The honking of a car came in sharply and I walked to my window to see Miguel's car. He got out of the car and he looked so good. Finally peeling my eyes off him I walked to the mirror did my hair well and.

I just wanted to look okay. I didn't want him to think I was a dork.

I walked out of my room and headed down the stairs. 

"Where are you going?" The very muscular voice of Uncle Grey asked.

I turned to see him sitting in the main room. What was he doing here?

"Uncle Grey. You frightened me." I laughed a bit.

Walking towards him I placed a kiss on his cheeks as he sat. "Bye Uncle Grey. I have a dinner date."

"You have what?" He asked and I stopped moving.

"A dinner date." I turned back

"I thought we agreed to talk this evening Bailey?" He asked and I furrowed my brows thinking of when I had said that.

"When did we agree to that? You forgot about our conversation, didn't you?" 

"I told you to come back home early. I had a surprise waiting for you." I thought back to earlier today in the Assembly hall.

"Shit!" I cursed 

"Don't curse!" He ordered.

"I'm sorry Uncle Grey. I didn't know you meant it." I replied.

"Have I ever said something that I didn't mean?" I thought he was getting agitated. I ditched my uncle for a guy. He must be so upset.

"I'm sorry Uncle Grey. I promise to make it up." 

"Goodbye." He said nothing. All he did was watch me walk out of the pack house.

Getting to the car park and noticed Miguel standing by the side of the car as he waited for me.

"I was about to call you." He said not putting up with his eyes off me.

"Oh."

"You look very beautiful Bailey. Who would have thought you looked this beautiful without the school uniform." He said and I smiled, creeps of blush forming on my face.

Was I blushing because I was getting a compliment from Miguel?

Miguel is a gentleman, he opened the door for me and I made sure I had my seat belt on before he drove off.

We got to one of the fanciest restaurants here in Dark moon pack and I didn't expect it. I thought we'd go to some normal take out place but damn! He was taking this dinner seriously and I was glad that I dressed properly for it.

I and Miguel selected what we would eat and then he called the waiter to come to take our orders.

Had he always been a gentle guy or was he just putting up a charade?

I'd always thought that he was a very hot-headed or rude guy because of the way he didn't speak to people and the one time he spoke to Jennie and insulted her. 

So I had to think he was rude and maybe a rascal but since that day he had been rather calm and quiet like he always was.

The waiter returned with the food and the whole time the waiter was away I couldn't take my eyes away from Miguel. I kept looking at him.

I was short of words.

Did I forget to say that he looked hot? He looks so damn hot in his outfit and his hair was brushed back

Being asked out on a date isn't something you see everyday but then I couldn't help but worry about uncle Grey. I couldn't believe that I forgot about our planned section because my crush asked me out on a date!

He must feel so lonely. I had kept that man company since I was born. He's been so single since I knew how to speak, so I guess he'd feel lonely.

"Are you Okay Bailey?" Miguel asked and I sighed inwardly. I wondered off thinking about uncle Grey. It's such a bad thing to do while you were on a date.

"I'm sorry I was just thinking about something."

"I hope it isn't something to worry about?" He asked and I smiled.

"It isn't."

"Then let's dig in. Shall we?" He asked and I nodded looking at the food in front of us.

"Sure we shall."

"So I was wondering why you said you don't like fighting for yourself Bailey because what you meant was you liked to be bullied. Why? Is it because you're so pampered by your mom and dad?" He asked and I frowned.

I thought we dropped this issue already.

"Miguel. I don't want to talk about it. I don't come to this dinner to be reminded about earlier today." I blurted out.

"I was just asking a few questions Bailey, it's not going to hurt you." he pressed on

"Please can we not talk about it." I held onto the fork as I stared at the food I'm front of me.

"I just want you to learn to stand up for yourself. Don't let them bully you."

"I'm fine Miguel please," I begged.

And he nodded. 

The classical song playing in the room made me feel so light-headed.

The environment was very calm and the restaurant was beautiful.
