Christian saved the contact and couldn't believe that actually worked. It had been years since he had been on any dates because his hero work took up so much of his free time post law school.
Avery waved goodbye to him as he dazedly made his way out the door. He had a bit of a hard time concentrating on work after that but he muddled through as best he could.
When he got home, Liam looked up at him expectantly. "So, did you talk to her?"
"Yes. We're going out on Friday," he said in disbelief.
"I knew you weren't completely hopeless deep down! Just make sure you don't bore her to death on the date and you'll be golden."
Unfortunately, that was a very real concern. He had no idea what Avery liked or what she would find interesting. At the very least, he needed to take her somewhere decent so she would enjoy the food if worst came to worst.
Christian wasn't good at this. Handling villains was worlds apart from handling women.
