"Yeaahhhhhh boii.... Rachel's gonna get soooomme! *Winks at Rachel* Use a condom this time! Hmmm...... I wonder about Patrick, I really do... Poor kid, being stuck with that bi'atch (who, by the way, makes me want to scream and throw a chair at.... well, you know who). Jeez, I really wonder how he got to her... Watevs, shouldn't take Adam too long to figure at that Patrick looks suspiciously similar to, oh I don't know, RACHEL! God, I swear that sometimes I just want to magically pop into the story and be all "Okay, this is what y'all are gonna do, whether you like it or not. Rachel, go take your son. Adam, go fall off a bridge. Juliahna, meet my good friend, Freddy Kruger. Sierra, here's your medal for best pimp of the year. Kia and Drew, here's a marriage license. Everyone else can do whatever the hell they want. (And Mark can get some)." ~Peace Out, Homies~" -longtime321 (Wattpad)

"Adam's quite brainless, no offence :D I mean, doesn't he know there's a thing in the hospital called theDNA test? Pluck Patrick's hair, pluck Juliana's (? I'm thinking I got her name wrong) hair, pluck his hair, bring it to the hospital, and ta-da! The results are out! And it proves that the slut is a lying whore: D and come on, does Patrick EVEN LOOK LIKE JULIANA?! IS ADAM BRAINLESS OR WHAT. Oh wait, he is." -TwinklePro (Wattpad)

..............................................................................

"Omigod I have nothing to wear!"

Sierra's eyes lit up. Did I just make a huge mistake?

"Shopping time!" she grabbed my arm and we rushed to Barney's.

Barney's is like, our home!

"Okay, we have only one hour to find you the perfect outfit! We have got to put it in gear! You have to look even more amazing than usual, R! Let's go, go, and go!"

Why couldn't I have said I had something to wear?

After one grueling hour, we finally found something suitable.

Then we rushed home, and I got my hair nearly pulled out of my head by Sierra while she was doing my hair.

"S, are you trying to murder my hair?"

"Pfft! No! You're not going to be cracking so many jokes or making fun of my styling expertise when you see the end result!"

And she was right. My hair looked awesome!

I finished getting ready just as the bell rang. I had called Mark yesterday and we agreed to have dinner at seven 'o clock today at La Bernadin, a fancy French restaurant.

I ran to the door after giving myself a last once over.

He smiled widely when he saw me.

"You look... amazing."

"You look pretty nifty yourself!"

"May I?"

He offered me his arm.

"You may."

I took his arm and with one last squeal directed to S, I left.

He had a sweet car. A black Lamborghini was parked outside my loft.

Not right outside... like, outdoors... you know what I mean.

On the way to the restaurant, we talked about my lack of knowledge concerning anything French.

"Don't worry," he told me. "I'll order for you."

I smiled gratefully, and after a minute of thought, I told him in a menacing, (well, as menacing as I could manage) voice, "You better not order me any snail, 'cause I watched the second Bean movie, and I'm paranoid now!"

He looked at me for a second and just started laughing.

"I'm serious!" I wagged my finger at him. "No disgusting choices allowed!"

He just started laughing some more, and before I knew it, we were there.

He swiftly got out and opened my door for me.

He took my hand and helped me out of the car.

"Hmm. Maybe chivalry isn't dead!"

He smiled at me and we walked inside, arm-in-arm.

"Reservation?" the man asked in a French accent.

"Mark Lodgings," Mark told him."

"Ah, Monsieur Mark, follow me."

We did as told, and he led us to small table for two.

I smiled politely at him.

I saw that people were staring at me, and I sighed.

"You might as well take a picture! It'll last longer!"

I should not have said that.

Mark and I were bombarded with flashes of light until the manager came and silenced the fans.

"Leave Miss Anderson and her date alone, or I will have you escorted out."

He left swiftly afterwards, but I heard him mutter to himself, "Must this happen every time we have a celebrity here?"

At least I'm not the only one.

I smiled sheepishly at Mark.

"Sorry about that. I should've known they'd take me seriously when I said that."

He shook his head. "You're apologizing for being famous and loved?"

I grimaced, and nodded. "I guess I am..."

He laughed and soon after a waiter came to out table.

He nodded, and Mark spoke. I am still just as clueless about French as I was five years ago.

"I'd like the Ménage A Trois for myself and the Langouste A la Crème for the pretty lady."

Aw! He called me pretty.

He spoke with impeccable French, and I felt a twinge of jealousy.

No fair! Why must everyone but me know how to speak in French?

"How do you speak French so well?"

"I went to school in France. I'm an artist; a painter."

"Really? That's so cool!"

"Maybe I could paint you sometime. I cannot think of a more beautiful muse, nor do I think anybody else could either."

"Wow, your gallantry shocks me! Almost all of the guys I've known are pigs."

"My mother taught me to respect women, and treat them how they deserve."

"You haven't met Juliana," I muttered under my breath.

"Hmm?"

"Nothing!"

The waiter came at this point, and gave us our orders.

"Ooh! Lobster!"

He is so awesome. He ordered me lobster! I love lobster!

"I take it you like lobster?"

"Mmm-hmm," I mumbled, not speaking since my mouth was already filled with lobster.

He laughed and dug into his food.

"You know," he said to me. "You're different than I imagined."

"I am?"

"Yeah, you are. I was completely shocked when you accepted my invitation. I've never asked out any other celebrity, you were the only one I've ever had such a huge crush on I was willing to take that risk."

"Why were you shocked?"

"Because celebrities are usually stuck-up, you know? There are a lot of them like that. I had a feeling you were different, but with all of the bad blood with celebrities, I wasn't sure. My brother once asked out Ashley Tisdale, and she laughed in his face and walked away."

"Wow that was mean!"

"I know. But you... you don't let this whole famous thing get to your head, do you? To you, you're still old Rachel, aren't you?"

"Yep. I promised myself I wouldn't let fame get to my head. I like being me- I like being different. What most people would call weird, I call unique!"

He laughed, and told me he agreed.

At the end of the date, I was sad. I didn't want the night to be over yet.

I was in his car and he had just parked.

"I had an amazing time, Mark. Thank you for the best date in a really long time!"

Er, the only date... but I don't have to tell him that, do I?

Didn't think so.

"I did, too. Which is why I have to ask to see you again; I really like you, Rachel."

"I really like you, too. And I'd love to go on a second date."

He smiled, and said, "Cool!"

I gave him a kiss on the cheek, and he looked a little shocked.

"Good night, Mark."

"Good night, Rachel."

I got out of the car and with one last 'Call me!' from me, I entered the building.

I shuffled to our loft, and the minute I entered S attacked me.

"Spill!"
