Talking along the way, the group arrived at the reserved room with the guidance of the waitress.
Taking seats by the window, Jade patted the one next to him, eyeing Phoenix who was about to seat next to Troy.
Seeing the signal, she walked over and sat next to him.
" How could you sit next to my brother when am not a fossil yet?"
" I don't see a problem with doing that, you said they wouldn't bite me remember?"
Coughing a little, Jade shut his mouth and stared at her smiling face.
He remembered vividly that he was the one who told her that his family doesn't bite. Looking at her smiling face, he had the urge to plant small kisses on her tiny dimples. The wider she smiled, the more her dimples stood out.
Ignoring his mother and brother, Jade shifted closer to Phoenix. Poking one of her dimples, he whispered.
" How I wish you could smile at me like that everyday from now on. I wanna have you all to myself along with your cute dimples, small lips and sexy voice."
" Stop doing that Jade. Your mother is watching." At this moment, Phoenix felt her body becoming hotter and hotter. She wanted to sprint to a place far away.
Chuckling at her cuteness, Jade ignored the staring eyes of his mother and brother. Right now he only had his Butterfly in his eyes.
" Don't worry about them. It's just our 'you and me' time. Since they wanted to eat together so badly, let's make them flee from here huh?"
"What 'you and me' time and if you continue doing that, am going home." Phoenix turned her head the other way.
Her ears were tinted red and her neck wasn't any better. She wanted to flee away as she was dying of embarrassment. What would his family think of her after this.
Not minding her behaviour, Jade continued teasing her in a hushed voiced.
" You are blushing. Are you being turned on my love? You know I feel like kissing you right now seeing your cuteness. And it is just adding fuel to the fire."
Phoenix stiffened and slowly turned to face him. " I will skin you alive if you attempt doing that."
Laughing out loudly, Jade moved away from her.
" Shall we now order?"
Troy who had been watching a free show from his brother and Phoenix enquired.
Looking at the embarrassed Phoenix, he smiled before glancing over at Jade.
_ ' Had no idea that brother was this flirty and perverse. Is this how he got Lizzy too?'_ He wondered silently.
Mother Paulson broke free from her thoughts after Troy asked the question. Staring at his second son, she appeared as if she had seen a creepy creature.
_ ' only if my eyes could click pictures, I would be having a collection by now. Anyway there is still a next time."
Smiling, she took the menu, ticking a few food items and passed it on to Phoenix.
" My dear, you choose what to have. The man will select after you. They are grown ups after all. Select plenty and eat to your heart's contentment."
Taking the menu from Mother Paulson, Phoenix stared at it for a long time without ticking anything.
" Let's select together." Seeing as she was new to some of the names there, Jade shifted closer to her, placing the menu between them, he started ticking as he asked her.
