Niall's P.O.V.
I told Jonathan that I needed a special dinner. Let's hope this was special enough. Jonathan met us right when we got there.
"Ah, señor Niall. Welcome back! This must be señorita Ruby. Nice to meet you, señorita Ruby." Jonathan said.
"Usted habla espanol?" She asked in Spanish.
"Si." Jonathan spoke back.
"Gusto en conocerlo." Ruby shook his hand.
Jonathan smiled warmly, "Welcome to Casa de Salsa, where after you work an appetite dancing, the food makes you want to dance more and have the night of your life."
Jonathan did it too over the top, I told him a subtle introduction, but Jonathan, was Jonathan. Who could blame him? He owned this restaurant, not me. Jonathan was a short man with a black mustache and a chef hat. He dressed Italian yet spoke Spanish, weird. He seemed to hit it off with Ruby, really fast which was great.
Ruby looked at me, her eyes sparkled. You could tell she was excited.
"Ah, Señor Zayn, Señor Liam, Señor Harry, Señor Louis, and Señor Paul, welcome back! I trust you would like the same seats?" Jonathan asked.
I was about to open my mouth, but Harry replied before I could, "Yes Jonathan. Please make this special, today we have a guest."
Ruby seemed flattered, I on the other hand wanted to throw up. Stop stealing my girl!!! Well technically, she isn't my girl. . . awkward. . . anyways Harry is always stealing the show!! As Harry and the guys lead Ruby to our usual seats, I stopped Jonathan.
"Jonathan! You said you'd have the surprise ready, is it ready?" I whisper shouted.
Jonathan gave me a sympathetic face, "I'm sorry Señor Niall, but it is almost finished. We had a complication getting it ready. I will signal you when ready. You look good! Is she your girlfriend?"
I blurted, "No! We are just friends. . .she's really pretty, too pretty for me. . .I mean she's gorgeous. . I mean we just met! "
I sighed as I tried explaining how I felt, "Is it that obvious I like her, Jonathan?"
Jonathan chuckled, "Si. She's quite attractive, but you better hurry, Harry is on a roll it seems."
I nodded and followed Jonathan to my usual seat. Now we have to wait for the surprise, great, could this da-get together get any worst? When I got there Ruby was sitting by an empty seat and then by Louis, Harry beside him. Zayn sat in front of Harry and Liam in front of Ruby. Paul sat beside the empty seat. I stopped in front the table and looked at Jonathan who winked at me.
"Niall! I saved you a seat!" Ruby said bickering me over.
I took my seat beside her, "Thanks, I appreciate it."
She smiled, "Your welcome. You OK, you seem a little stressed?"
I was. I didn't want to tell her though. It would ruin it. I didn't want to be rude or mess this up. Stay calm Niall, stay calm. Keep your cool.
"No I'm fine. Just starving." I said taking some chips with salsa and munching on it.
Jonathan handed us our menus. We all knew what we were going to get, but Ruby just didn't seem to know what to eat. I decided to help her out. Her uncertainty evident as she read through all the menu choices. She was cute when she was uncertain. I think I'm falling. I think I'm falling hard.
"Not sure what to get, huh?" I chuckled at her indecisive face.
"Is it that obvious?" She said in a indecisive tone.
"A little." I giggled scrunching my nose.
"What do you recommend?" She said, cocking an eyebrow at me.
"Well I don't like spicy things, and I usually don't order seafood." I said in mid thought, tapping my chin.
Ruby imitated me, tapping her finger on her chin, "Hmm. . . oh, this sounds good. Enchiladas a la crema. . . haven't had enchiladas in a while."
I looked at her, "I've never tried that. It's sounds good. I'm going to order the fajitas mixtas. Those are delicious."
She laughed, "Well, that sounds good too. Hmm, how about we share? I can give you some of mine and you can give me some of yours, best of both worlds. Deal?"
My face brightened up, "Sure! Sounds great so then enchiladas mixtas?"
My Irish Spanglish uttered out. She couldn't contain her laughter and neither could the boys. I guess I'm not meant to speak Spanish.
"Is that what you call Irish Spanglish, Niall?" Louis teased, looking at Liam.
Liam added, "It was a nice try, Niall."
Harry commented, "Stick to talking English, mate. Let the angel in red enlighten us."
Harry waved at her, giving her a dreamy face, his dimples prominent. Gosh, why is Harry so darn handsome and flirtatious! Why? Why Harry? As Harry sent a wink at her, I got stiff and she only rolled her eyes. At least the feeling wasn't mutual for Harry. That was the bright side.
Ruby smirked, "No lo creo."
Harry smirked, "Does that mean, that you love me? I knew it! I knew I was going to get to you one way or another."
Jonathan responded, "Actually, no. It means she doesn't think so."
Harry looked at her, his smirk going away. Hate to burst your bubble Harry, but just stop and back off! All of us began laughing.
Louis, Liam, and Zayn said in unison, "Burn! Jinx!"
We chuckled as we told Jonathan what we wanted for dinner. While we waited, we all talked, the music began to play. None of us were interested in it till later. Right now, we needed something to satisfy our hunger. We munched on chips and salsa while we waited, crunching noises echoing throughout the table. Jonathan brought our drinks. Suddenly, Jonathan brings a large beer glass with some yellowish, red substance. He set it in front of Ruby. Her face immediately brightened up as all the boys directed their attention towards her drink.
"Thanks Jonathan!" Ruby cheered.
Liam asked, "I thought you said you didn't drink any alcoholic beverages. "
Ruby took a sip, a smile forming on her lips as she kept slipping the drink up the white and red striped straw. The smile on her face got bigger the more she sipped her drink. It seemed tasty, maybe I should ask if I could have some. . .no!
"I did say that and this is non alcoholic. It's a mango strawberry smoothie margarita mix. So I won't get drunk. This is delicious!" She chirped.
I wanted to try, but it would be weird to ask. She noticed. She seemed to be able to read right through my thoughts.
"Do you guys want some?" She asked as Jonathan brought us our beers.
"Let me have a try love." Louis said sticking his straw in her drink.
As Louis drank the smoothie he grinned. Ruby only smirked.
"I think you like it." Ruby said stating the obvious in her normal cheery tone.
"It's amazing!" Louis chirped sticking his straw back in his beer.
Liam and Zayn then tried some of her drink. I guess Louis made Zayn and Liam want some mango smoothie drink. They looked at each other and grinned. Zayn's smile was more devious than loving. Liam's smile seemed like he could get addicted to this stuff. Its mango, mango is delicious.
"Yummy!" Liam said sipping some more.
Zayn began chugging away, "Yup."
Ruby took her drink back, when Zayn and Liam had drank her drink to the half way point. She didn't want to be rude, but it was her drink and if they wanted some they needed to get some of their own! I really wanted to try some though.
"Hey!" Ruby whined taking her drink protectively.
Harry cleared his throat as Zayn and Liam apologized. Harry came beside Ruby and took a sip. He smiled and then took the opportunity to kiss her cheek. His lips pressing her cheek softly. I crushed the chip in my hand, leaving it into pieces when I saw what he had done. The chip was now crumbs, at least it didn't have any salsa on it. I quickly cleaned my hands off before she noticed. Back off Harry!!!! Ruby blushed as Harry winked, giving her a flirtatious smirk, his dimples more prominent and deeper than ever.
"Harry Edward Styles!" Ruby said standing up, shocked.
Harry chirped, "Yes love?"
Ruby crossed her arms avoiding his gaze, "Stop it! Don't ever do that again!"
Harry whispered in her ear, "Save me a dance?"
Ruby punched his shoulder, "Hmph."
I chuckled and grinned at the reaction. Harry only rubbed the spot where she had punched him.
"Ouch! Fine, after dinner. Maybe you could crash and stay at my place for the night." Harry said, taking his seat winking.
I looked at him shocked, Paul put his arm at my shoulder. He kept me from moving. For being our body guard, Paul was more like a good friend than a body guard.
She only mumbled, "I'm gonna. ."
I calmed her down, "Don't worry Ruby, Harry can get to his head sometimes."
Louis added, "He's an idiot for dames."
She giggled as Harry said, "Am not!"
Ruby replied, "You are too. If it wasn't that I was wearing a dress or that we are in a nice restaurant and that your a star, I would of spilled this smoothie all over your curly locks! As for staying the night, I will not do such a thing! I have morals and I don't stay the night with people I just met.
Harry gave her a gaze, "I would of kissed you. "
Her cheeks got red again, changing from their normal caramel tan, to a crimson red. She was about to get up, but me and Louis held her down, grabbing her arms. My hands accidentally slipped down to her hands. I blushed at feeling our fingers intertwine with each other's. Ruby noticed and I quickly let her hand go, looking away. Paul only chuckled at my reaction. Suddenly, a particular sizzle captured our attention. Ruby let the anger go. Once she saw the food, the anger immediately left and her smile returned. It is true what they say, "Food makes everything better!"
As Jonathan set down every bodies plates and food, my attention went to a certain persons plate of cheesy goodness. The enchiladas had colorful tomatoes and veggies on top. The scent was so good. I really wanted to try that enchilada. As Jonathan set down the piping hot fajitas, Ruby directed her attention towards my plate. I smirked as her mouth opened.
I imitated what she had said earlier, "Close your mouth or you'll catch flies."
Ruby closed her mouth and gave me a teasing glare, "Very funny."
I laughed, "Don't worry, we can share. After all sharing is caring."
She blushed, her cheeks a rosy pink. She then smirked making me smile at her. I could stare at her all day. . .
"A deal is a deal." Ruby said.
I replied, "Yes mother."
She hit my shoulder playfully, "Niall James Horan, I am not your mother! I'm trying to be nice."
I replied, "I am too, but your making this hard."
She looked at me, "Me! Look at you! I try to be nice, but some people like Harry just make me angry. "
I smirked, "Do I make you mad?"
She thought about it, "If you don't share you fajitas, then I'll be mad."
I rose my hands in retreat, "You win, I'll share if you share some of your drink too. "
Ruby looked at me in a "are you serious face".
"Fine. Only because you've been really sweet today, Niall Horan." Ruby sent me a smile and passed the drink over.
I passed my drink to her. She gave me a concerned face.
"No beer, Niall, remember." Ruby said pushing the beer in my direction.
I whined, "Not even a sip?"
I gave her my best puppy eyes. I felt my bottom lip stick out, sort of like she did earlier. Ruby only stared at her drink, every once in a while looking at me and my beer. I gave her best my best cheeky grin. I begged and begged until she groaned and gave me a indecisive look. I smirked at her expression. She was thinking about it. . . I could tell. For the first time in a long time, I felt devious, like I was getting something much more than just what I seemed.
Ruby thought about it, "One sip. "
I immediately squealed like a girl, getting laughs and chuckles from the boys. A devious smirk played on my lips. Ruby only rolled her eyes at just getting a look of my face. They all directed their attention towards her. All eyes on Ruby and the beer.
"Hand me the beer." She mumbled as I handed it to her.
She took a sip and that was it. Her face changed from a normal face to a disgusted look. Her cute little noise scrunching as she cringed at the taste of it.
"How do you even drink this?" Ruby said, giving a disgusted face, scrunching her nose again, the bridge of her nose wrinkling up. Her glasses making her look silly.
"The more you drink, the more you get you get used to it love." Harry said giving her a goofy smile.
"There just a sip. It's alright. " She passed my beer back, her lipstick stain now imprinted in the glass.
The guys bursted laughing at the sight of her face. She was adorable. I only laughed, well we all did. Laughter dominating our whole table. She gave me a sheepish face. I chuckled as she gave me a tiny smile. Aww, she broke a rule for me! Here comes Harry.
"If you broke your rules on beer for Niall, then you could break a rule for me." Harry said getting closer to her.
As he went to kiss her, she put her finger on his lips, "Nope. Keep dreaming Styles."
She lightly pushed Harry away and directed our attention back to our food. All of us did, even Harry did. We both began splitting the food on our plates. Ruby had three cheesy enchiladas of cheesy goodness. She used her knife to split the middle enchilada in half. The melted yellow cheese oozed out. I used my knife to split the fajitas the best I could. We would each eat one side and then switch plates. Ruby ate quickly, but with manners. Even after she finished she had some cheese on her cheek. I looked at her and laughed. She immediately stopped eating and swallowed her food.
"What?" She said.
I giggled, "Here let me get it. You sort of have something on your cheek."
I pointed on the spot where the cheesy goodness touched her delicate skin. I used my napkin and cleaned her cheek. As I did, I couldn't resist at staring into her eyes. They were full of curiosity yet they seemed like she had limits. Her eyes were filled with wonder. She began giggling, catching me off guard. I blushed. How long have I been staring?!?!?
"Sorry. It was my fault." I uttered as I made the cheese spread all over her cheek.
Great Niall! You ruined it! You ruined the moment!! We were a lips distance away and I blow it! What odds! I'm never going to get her now!! That's just great!!! My sarcasm is evident inside my head.
"It's OK I got it. I'll be back. Don't worry about it, its just cheese." She said calmly.
She got up and walked to the bathroom and minutes later cane back out and sat beside me. The cheesy goodness was now off her cheek. It was now squeaky clean.
Like always, Harry began his flirting, "What took you so long love? You kept me waiting."
Ruby rolled her eyes, "Oh please Styles, keep yourself together. I'm sure you've seen prettier woman than I. Now contain yourself or your cheek will be sore and will stay the color of my dress until you return to where your staying."
She sat in her seat, and silenced Harry getting chuckles from Zayn and Liam. Louis only advised him to do as she said.
"So Ruby, tell us about yourself." Liam said sighing putting his elbows on the table with one hand on his cheek.
Ruby smiled and replied, "OK. You ask me questions and I will give you the answers and Harry please don't ask in-depth questions. Now, do you guys have any questions for me?"
Everyone rose their hands, like little school boys in front of a teacher. Well a massively attractive teacher.
Ruby chuckled, she was spectacular, "Well then. Liam you can start. Then Zayn, Louis, Niall, and Harry. Paul your welcomed to ask questions too."
Liam only smiled, "Do you like school? We're you a straight A student? What was your school life like?"
As Liam showered her with questions about school, Ruby payed attention. She was very attentive to Liam.
She answered them one at a time, "Well yes, I am and almost always try to be a straight A student. I try to do my best in every class. I do like school. I love to learn and I love kids. I was always the innocent girl who wouldn't try to boss my other classmates around. My school life? Was normal, sort of. . .well I was bullied when I was younger. It was tough but my parents and people that cared for me told me not to listen. They kept me from doing anything I'd regret."
As we payed attention to her story I couldn't help but get butterflies in my stomach. She was something.
"Next question." Ruby said moving on to Zayn.
Zayn sat up, "Have you ever done something you'd regret?"
Ruby thought about it, "Hmm. . . meeting Harry."
She smirked and we all laughed at her joke. Harry only crossed his arms.
"You know you love me. You know, I like playing hard to get with you. You do an amazing job at not seeming interested, but I know you are." Harry managed to say.
Ruby smirked, "Don't worry Harry. You aren't so bad when you aren't flirting. Next?"
Louis looked at her and asked, "Which is your favorite One Direction song?"
Ruby smiled, "Well, I like Little things and One thing. I couldn't say that I have a favorite. I'm a fan and I like many of your songs. I couldn't possibly choose. If I did. . .I'll give you my top 10. Little Things, One Thing, Stole My Heart, Everything About You, Up All Night, I Would, What Makes You Beautiful, Rock Me, Live While We're Young, and Loved You First. I love many more. . .
Now it my turn. I didn't know what I was gonna ask. I crossed my fingers, I hope this is a good question. As I was about to ask my question Jonathan came up behind me.
He whispered, " It's ready. Would you like to see it?"
I looked at him, a gleam of hope shinning in my eyes. I had excitement in my soul and I really couldn't wait to see what Jonathan had done. I wanted this to be friendly yet romantic, but not in that serious way. Maybe I could still make this right for her sake. . .
