Knox: We’ll be on that forever.

Dylan: Alright you two, let’s be nice and get back to being friends, and let us get back to the matter that has been brought to our attention.Anderson, who’s the lucky woman?

God, did these guys not know how to behave themselves?I let out a sigh and began typing.How had I become the one who was in a crisis?

Levi: It’s nothing really, just a little dinner date.

Colton: Dinner or sex?

Lucas: Is that all you think about?

Colton: What food?Don’t you think about food?

Lucas: Really?Food?You think we don’t know you?Haha

Colton: That’s right.I think about food all the time.You all should know that.

Levi: He’s right, he has a bigger appetite than Knox

Knox: Says who?My sexual appetite is pretty large.

Colton: Not as large as mine.

Knox: Care to put that to a test?

Dylan: WHOA….ANYWAY…where are you taking the lucky lady?

Levi: I was thinking of taking her to The Orchid Lounge

Dylan: Oh, that new Japanese place?Supposed to be excellent.

Knox: Let’s not tell Aurora or Lorelai that, I know Lorelai has been hinting to me that they both want to go.

Dylan: Same here, Aurora hasn’t given up yet, she left one of their menus on the dining room table tonight.

Knox: Levi, please come back with some horrible reviews.

Colton: Shit, this girl can’t just be any girl if you’re taking her there.Have you seen the prices?It’s fucking expensive as shit!

Levi: It’s not that bad.

Colton: For a first date it is…jesus, how about you date me then?I’ll even put out on the first date!

Levi: *eye roll* I saw the prices, and I’m not interested in your offer, thanks Colton.

I thought for a second.Did I make a mistake by telling them where I was planning on taking Scarlett?Was the cost of the meal really too much for a first date scenario?

Clay: *whistles, cough cough* You must really like this girl a lot….

Levi: Why do you say that?

Clay: I don’t know.I wouldn’t take a first date to a place like that…

Knox: Are you telling me you wouldn’t take Peyton there?

Clay: Not what I said.

Dylan: While I’d agree with you on that Clay, maybe Levi is trying to impress the girl and just doesn’t want to tell us.He is entitled to his privacy as well.
