Adonis is seen waiting at the entrance of the sect. You can see him moving his body around quite a bit. Adonis was nervous.
'Do I look good enough?' Adonis was currently wearing a button-up shirt with dress pants; along with it, he was wearing a regal coat. Overall, Adonis looked very well dressed; his handsome looks only complimented it more.
Adonis was waiting for Lena as today was their date. Adonis was surprised when Lena told him that; it took him about 30 seconds to say yes.
This was Adonis's first date; he didn't know what to expect as Lena was the one who planned it. For him: he just didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of her.
'Man, this relationship of ours moved far more faster than expected.'
It would be a lie to say that Adonis didn't feel attracted to Lena, but it wasn't enough for him to try to date her, especially since he is focused on his training. But since Lena was the one to ask him out, he decided to give it a try.
Adonis was doing his best to calm down and say to himself 'A date is just hanging out with a friend it is not that serious.'
"Adonis!"
Adonis looked forward and was stunned by Lena speed-walking toward him wearing an off-shoulder short chiffon dress. The dress was filled with a few shades of green, making a pattern along it. The breeze was making her dress and blond hair flow like water, it only made her look more beautiful.
'%^#$#%^*$&%##@!@!'
Adonis's brain short-circuited, Lena at this time was already the most beautiful girl he had ever met, but now she looked even better. On the outside, Adonis was staring at Lena with surprised eyes.
When she was close to Adonis, she noticed this and decided to tease him about this.
"Adonis, you look shocked? Did I look so good that your brain can't handle it~?"
"Yes"
That was the only thing Adonis could utter.
Lena was a bit surprised by Adonis's honesty, but a second later, simply smiled as she knew Adonis was a sincere person.
"Hey, don't just stand there, you can stare as much as you want while the date is happening."
Lena took Adonis's hand and pulled him out of the Sect. There was a carriage waiting for them and both of them got on.
Adonis's brain was finally working and inside the carriage questioned Lena "Hey, couldn't we get to the Viscor city faster by running there?"
Viscor City was the city closest to the Green Valley Sect.
"I don't want to use our cultivation during our date, so we are going to do this in a normal way."
Since it made sense, Adonis didn't say anything to that. The carriage would arrive in Viscor in about an hour, so Adonis and Lena decided to talk about simple stuff, like favorite foods, music, and hobbies.
Adonis suddenly thought of a question "Hey, you're part of the Aluvre family right?"
"Yes, what about it?"
"Well, I was just curious why you decided to go to the Green Valley Sect instead of one of the 5 Grand Sects. I mean, with your talent you should've been able to join one of them?"
"Aaahh, there's a simple answer to that..." Lena then explained to Adonis her situation and how it all led up to her joining the sect.
"So, you're a runaway then?"
"I wouldn't say that, I just didn't like my life before, so I joined a fairly unknown sect to not be spotted by my family."
"...That's kinda what runaway means."
"Whatever, it's not like this will last forever anyways. My family is bound to find out the truth eventually plus, I don't want to be stuck in the Green Valley Sect for the rest of my life."
"What do you plan on doing when your family finds out?"
"Runaway again"
"So, you admit you're a runaway?"
"Look, I know if I ever return to them, they'll make me practice trade again, or worse, you use me as a political bargaining tool."
"That does sound bad."
"It is bad! I want to live my life however I want it, even if that means running away for the rest of it."
"..."
Adonis didn't know what to say, he doesn't know what it's like for Lena.
"Anyways, enough about my family, what about your-" Lena stopped herself when she remembered that Adonis was the trash of his family.
"Ah...I'm sorry." Lena apologized as she knew that Adonis probably didn't want to remember his family.
"No, no, you're okay." Adonis consoled her.
There was an awkward silence between them for a few moments before the carriage stopped. When they looked outside, they were at Viscor. Lena paid the carriage driver and they both went into the city.
When they entered, Lena immediately grabbed Adonis's hand and started to drag him to a restaurant.
"Wow! Lena are you that hungry?"
"No, just excited about the date and I wanted to reach the first place as fast as possible." Lena lied, in truth, she just wanted to get away from the awkwardness that she made.
They entered the restaurant and both took a window seat. The waitress approached them and gave them the menu, Adonis chose a lasagna, and Lena chooses a medium-well steak.
They both talked about other things like famous people and the Areas they would prefer to live in. While talking, people who entered the restaurant would admire Adonis and Lena due to how good they both looked by themselves and together. Adonis heard the other customers talk about them; he felt a bit embarrassed about it: Lena also heard it but ignored it and instead focused on Adonis's embarrassment and teased him about it, making Adonis more embarrassed.
The food was brought to them and both of them enjoyed their meals. When they were done, the waitress went up to them and said "We have free dessert if you two want." Lena and Adonis were not the types to pass down a meal, so they accepted it. When they got their dessert, it was a huge sundae with one spoon.
Adonis was confused about why there was one spoon until Lena took the spoon with some ice cream on it and pointed it at Adonis, she then said "Open wide" with a mischievous smile on her face. Adonis was immediately embarrassed and was gonna just ask for another spoon until Lena shoved the ice cream in his mouth.
"How is it?"
"...It's...tasty..." Adonis looked down with a blushing face
Lena couldn't help but love the reaction Adonis had and continued to feed Adonis while giggling.
All the single people in the restaurant had a few thoughts about this:
'Fuck off and get married already!'
'I hope you both die with your lives full of love!'
All the other couples in the restaurant simply giggled and enjoyed the sight, as from their perspective, they looked like a cute couple that just started dating.
Once they were done eating, they split the check and went out of the restaurant.
"Where are we going now?"
"You'll know once we get there."
They both made their way to a theatre.
