Great, she thinks it's nice that I have a date. So much for hoping for jealousy. Well, she's my *friend* so of course she is all for it.
"I have to admit I was a bit surprised when Ashley approached me yesterday and asked me out." I tell her, maybe I can get her a bit jealous. Or worried like a sister at least. "It actually took me till this afternoon to call her back and agree. I guess I have to actually thank you for that."
"Me?" Isabel asked surprised.
"Mhm. Afterall, Jake hurt you a lot and yet, you aren't stopping from going out and have fun so ... it made me realize that I'm too young to be shying away from women because I had a bad experience."
What the hell am I talking about? Maybe I#ve read too many Cosmopolitans lately? I just hope that Isabel will think that Lonnie is the bad experience and not my non-existing luck with her.

With another tight smile towards Alex, I take another sip of my wine. Oh God, its my fault that he is going out with that redhead, what a horrible thought. Maybe I should warm him about her. A woman’s intuition is never ever wrong, especially when it comes to the scheming of redheads named Ashley.
Ugh and he’s thanking me. I’m so tempted to point out that Jake didn’t actually hurt me as much as everyone thinks. Okay, it stung a little to know that he had taken me for a ride but whatever, he was barely even a beep on my radar. Is it any wonder that I bounced back so quickly.
“That’s so sweet, Alex” I say and it is sweet. Alex had told me a little bit about the Lonnie chick that screwed him over a while back and I’m glad that he is getting over his issues. He deserves so much better then that skank Lonnie and way more better then Ashley. Should I say something to point that out? I don’t know. What about if he really likes Ashley? I should talk to Liz about it later, she will know what to do. “I’m sure you guys will have a great time,”

sorry that it took me so long with the Kyle reply, morpheus
KYLE
"Favourite beer? Hm, a Budweiser is nice or a Guiness but ... honestly, I drink almost every beer." I answer after thinking about Tess' question for a moment.
I wonder why Tess asked - is she maybe a beer girl? That would be like ... a gift from heaven. Finding a girl who prefers beer over the fancy stuff.
"Why did you ask? Do you like drinking beer?" I ask.

Did I really think I could get Isabel a bit jealous? Stupid Stupid Stupid Alex! Of course she is happy for me, she's my friend after all. Ugh!
I wonder what Isabel is thinking about. She really seems to be mulling over something. Probably about her own date. Yuck! Well, she certainly looks cute while she thinks about ... whatever it is. I could watch her for hours.
"Yeah, Ashley is a nice girl and I never went out with a redhead before ... let alone in a totally foreign city." Since I went to college in Chicago which isn't too far from my home town and my previous dates always being blonde, it should certainly be interesting.

“Yeah, Ashley is a nice girl and I never went out with a redhead before ... let alone in a totally foreign city.” Alex says
“Hmm,” I murmur my agreement. This is so awful. Really, its quite unbearable listening to Alex talk about his date with Ashley when I know that this is all going to end badly. That Ashley didn’t seem like a nice kinda girl, she looked like a shark and it seems like she has got her teeth firmly planted in Alex.
“Its hard to date a redhead when you’re use to the best and blondes are the best,” I joke, halfheartedly. So, only joking a little because you and I both know that blondes rock.

"I'm not even going to try and argue with you about that." I say and can't help but laugh. "But then again, let me tell you as a guy, it is very hard to find blondes who are willing to date me."
Wow, that did sound desperate even for me.
"And I didn't mean it to come out like I have no self esteem or anything." I add after a moment. "I mean, ... uh ... come on, I'm a stud after all." I heave a heavy sigh. "And I so did not mean to sound so .... well, lets just say that we really have great weather today, don't we?" I finish with a hopeful grin. Hopeful because I hope Isabel won't start talking about stripping cops because of my *I the stud* comment.

I grin in amusement as Alex starts to ramble about the weather. He really is just too adorable for words.
“Yeah, the weather is really great.” I agree, “And Alex, I’m pretty sure that any blonde would be happy to go out with you and if they don’t want to straight away, show them your handcuffs,” I grin wickedly and raise my eyebrows suggestively.

I don’t know if this doesn’t fit, but I tried to get this written. Feel free to disregard anything that doesn’t seem to fit in. I figured that Izzy didn’t whisper that just because it wasn’t written in, and since Liz, Alex, and Iz are sitting near each other, I felt that Liz would over hear since she was listening in on their conversation.
<center>~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Liz ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~</center>
I smile, mostly because I don’t know what else to do, let alone what it is that I should say. Everyone is naming all these drinks, and I don’t know one thing about any of them. All these different suggestions on what to drink and even an opening from Max to simply abstain from it all, but I don’t know what it is to do. It would be simple to not drink. That would kinda get rid of the big “momentous” part of this birthday. There are just so many drink names whirling around and whizzing past that I can barely catch a name before a new one takes its place. Although that mango margarita sounds like it would be an interesting pick. Does the restaurant have a drink menu that I could look off of and pick from?
I make the decision to ask for a drink menu the next time the waiter comes in, and turn to Alex and Iz who seem to be having an interesting conversation about Alex’s date with Ashley. Well, that’s definitely a new development, and I don’t even know if I’ve met Ashley. Wait. Is he playing hard to get now? I must have missed that memo.
I see the waiter come in with the appetizers and I get his attention and ask for a drink menu. Max sees the whole thing and I smile at him before saying, “Maybe pictures will help.”
“—don’t want to straight away, show them your handcuffs.”
What?? I really missed something there. I tap Alex to get his attention and ask him quietly, “What is Izzy talking about. Your handcuffs?”

I'm about to reply something about blondes who don't want me when Liz asks about Isabel's handcuffs comment. Isabel looks a bit surprised herself at first but then there's a dangerous gleam in her eyes. If I'm not very careful, the whole table will know about my stripping.
"Honestly Liz, I'm not sure if that's a conversation for right now." I reply quickly and quietly. "The handcuffs stuff is ... a code word, you could say. Right, Iz?"
I turn to the blonde, raising my eyebrows and giving her my best puppy dog look. Oh please, don't tell Liz.

No worries, Trude, I'm usually the one that's lagging in replies 
TESS
I ask Kyle which type of beer he likes and he immediates perks up. Wow, guess I asked the right question because he's looking at me with this hopeful gleam in his eye and then a second later, I realize why that gleam is there when he asks me, "Why did you ask? Do you like drinking beer?"
Uh-huh, yeah, cuz he's been paying attention. But whatever, I have had beer before, and it was ok. I repeat as much outloud for his benefit since he obviously can't hear me talking to myself. "Um, well I haven't really found it all that wonderful, but I guess it's ok. I think I had a Budweiser one time while camping with some friends. Well, part of one anyway. My friend ended up drinking the rest of it. He always was a bit of a mooch," I finish with a small chuckle.
The waiter comes in to change out our chip baskets and after I hear Liz request the drink menu, I ask for a re-fill of my own drink.
