Martijn POV

We look so cute, dressed in the same way but each with their own style. I love this.

We are walking into the restaurant, Miné holding onto my forearm. Once inside, the owner of the place greets me and I ask for a table with some privacy.

"This place is so beautiful...." Miné whispers in my ear as a waiter leads us to our table.

It's behind bamboos dividers and red curtains, I doubt that someone will come to bother us!

"Is the table ok?" the waiter asks.

"It's perfect, thank you"

He leaves the menu on the table and leaves.

Tonight I really want to be a gentleman, so I help my girlfriend to take off her jacket and leave it on her chair's back. Then I move the chair from under the table and make her sit down, leaving a kiss on her cheek.

Once she's ok, I take a seat too.

"Martijn.... You don't need to be this perfect"

"But I will anyway.... So..... How about a full sushi tray to share???"

"Yes.... And I want to try the noodles too. Oh my goodness, too many options!" she says looking at the menu.

In the end we got a 50 pieces sushi tray, a cup of noodles and some shrimp jiaozi. I can't wait to eat.... Mhhhhhh!

About ten minutes after we ordered, the waiter comes with our food. I hope we didn't order too much, but my girl eats as much as I do, soooooo.....

"So, I'm curious about your Kilimanjaro experience"

"Uhm! Yes. It was some years ago already. We decided to do something crazy with the team and..... Someone came up with this idea.
We arrived at the top in seven days. It was the most beautiful view I've ever seen. It didn't look like it was part of this world "

"Was the climbing difficult?"

"Mh, a little. It was super cold..."

We keep on the conversation while eating this delicious food. From Kilimanjaro to partying in Las Vegas.

And then.... She asks me the worst question she could ask right now. This date might flop because of this.

Really.

The question was

"Martijn.... But.... Did I tell you when my birthday is?"

My palms are sweaty.

"Ummm.... Heh.... Erm.... No"

I was expecting a really disappointed face, but instead I got a nice laughter.

"Oh my gosh.... This is so funny"

"You must be so disappointed because of me forgetting to ask you"

"No, it's just.... Weird. It's usually the first thing you ask"

"Do you know when my birthday is?" I ask her.

"No, but I have the feeling that it's in between May 13th and 15th....."

"Then you know! Ughh..... Don't tell me that I've missed your birthday....."

"No.... You haven't, it's in November, the 7th"

"Thank goodness. I thought I was going to die because of my stupid mind. I'm going to make up for my deficiency"

We are now over with our food, but..... I'm.... Still hungry? How???

I shake off the thought of ordering more and ask the waiter for the bill, planning something for tonight.

"What do you want to do tonight?" I ask Miné, looking at her beautiful eyes.

"I.... I don't know...."

"The night is still young.... Club?"

"Sounds good! But I'm not going to drink.

"You can drink everything you want. The club is not so far from my house"

"Ok, so we are leaving the car there and go by foot"

The bill arrives, and I pay without Miné complaining. Maybe she knows that she's not going to win and pay for her dinner.... Obviously.

I also leave a tip for the waiter and leave the restaurant holding hands with my girl.

I love to hold her hand. It's a simple gesture that makes everything more intimate. It means a lot to me.

"First time in the club with a superstar dj...." she says opening the car and getting in, as I do the same.

"I was looking forward to it since that night at Tomorrowland"

"Wow, you are right. Damn Peter.... Go fuck yourself and our relationship!"

[...]

She drove us back home and we both take the chance to go to the bathroom. I'm definitely not going to the bathroom in the club.... I don't want to see people mating into the stalls.

While I'm waiting for Minerva to be ready too, I check my phone to see if someone called me. There's a message from Watse, but it's not that important.

I hear some footsteps coming from upstairs. Minerva is about to walk downstairs.

Ughh! Imma get jealous now.... She changed into the black dress I love and that high heeled over-the-knee boots that we bought together.

"Miné.... Hahaha, you didn't have to.... You are going to be so cold"

"I'm almost naked and you can only think about me being cold? Damn, I thought you were going to bitch me out"

"I could never. Now, sexy girlfriend.... May we go?"

She nods and puts on her jacket, and so do I. After checking if she has everything she needs in her bag, I grab her small hand and head outside, locking the door behind me.

"Are you sure that you are not jealous??"

"For sure that I'm jealous.... But you look stunning and that makes up for it"

I offer her my biceps to hold onto, since she is wearing such high heels that she is probably taller than me.

The fact that she only wears boots with high heels makes me think that she doesn't want to expose her legs. Why tho? She's perfect. At Tomorrowland she wore short pants everyday and I don't think she was uncomfortable with showing her legs.

I push the button to call the elevator, and it immediately opens because we were the last ones to use it.

"May I ask you something?" I ask once we are inside and about to go down.

"Sure!"

"Why do you always hide your legs when wearing high heels?"

"Because high heels cause me to show how muscular my calves are. I look like a man"

"Oh..... I thought you were uncomfortable or something...."

"No potato, I'm perfectly fine with these looks. It's just appearance"

"Good. And I surely don't mind because these are so sexy"

She tightens her grip on me and kisses my cheek, leaving her head on my chest.

She's as sweet as honey.....
