~James Edwards~Michelle's House > The Road > Chez Hans | Dublin, Ireland
Overthinking a little, he suddenly began wondering if he went overboard doing so. A gift on a first date? Then again, it wasn't like he was getting any younger. And it wasn't gonna be long until his forties was gonna be on his doorstep. Edwards wasn't bothered by it though. Unless he's paralyzed or facing any career-ending injuries, he was mostly content. If he had brought flowers, that probably would have been too much. Not to mention he wasn't sure what kind of flowers she liked. But at least he somewhat hit the nail on the head.
While she went to put away the box of sweets, Edwards checked his pockets for his car keys. Thankfully it didn't take very long for him to find them. Looking back at his car, he grinned a little. Sure, that car could go fast, had a strong engine and above all, reminded him very much of home, so it did mitigate the feeling of homesickness for the most part. He then made a mental note to write another letter to his Father as he heard Michelle coming back.
He proceeded to open the passenger for her. Once she was in, he moved to close it before getting into the Driver's seat and turning the key in the ignition, prompting the engine to roar to life. "The night's relatively young, so I hope you're ready." He said as he disengaged the parking brake and shifted the car into gear. "It's probably gonna be a long night."
It wasn't long until they were on the road. Rather then going fast like he had on the way here, he ended up going maybe a little over the speed limit, unwilling to put Michelle...and himself...in danger in the name of recklessness. After all, she was the Boss' Daughter. If she were to get hurt because of his recklessness, that would not be a very good look for him and he'd be out of a job if not going back to America in a body bag.
After a reasonably long drive, they arrived at their destination. Although he did consider taking her to the Oak Tree Restaurant, Edwards ended up opting out of that because chances where she's already been there. But as far as choosing to go to Chez Hans, Edwards was hoping for them both to trying something new. After parking his car, he proceeded to shut off the engine before helping Michelle out of the car. It was probably gonna start getting awkward here soon. Then again, Edwards was just overthinking because of the simple fact that he hasn't been on a date in several years. Dinner, then stargazing in the field. "So start with dinner, then we can go lay in the field, stargaze for a bit. Not sure where else to go from there, but we can figure it out as the night progresses." He said, scratching the back of his head.
Upon walking inside, the couple was greeted by a fancy dining room and it wasn't long until Edwards started feeling out of place. Compared to a few other patrons, Edwards felt underdressed, but shrugged it off because he wasn't entirely expecting the place to seem so fancy. Oh well. Thankfully, since it was a little emptier this evening, it wasn't all too noisy. Aside from feeling out of place because of how he looked, it was relatively peaceful in here. Moments after entering, the two were seated and the server left them two menus and two empty wine glasses. "Hopefully I didn't go too overboard." He said, kinda breaking the ice.

"Precision is something I am good with." He responded, chuckling as he remembered that the box of sweets was in his hands. "Oh, these are for you." He said as he handed them to her, which was enough to put a smile on her face.Michelle said:“Hi, perfect timing, I just finished getting ready.”

"Well, that is the goal." He said, smiling when she winked at him.Michelle said:“Why, Mr. Edwards, I believe you’re sweet on me.”

"Yeah. Let's get going." He said before they walked towards his car.Michelle said:“Shall we then?”
