Levi: Thanks, Dylan

Dylan: No problem

Lucas: I don’t know.Maybe something else is going on and he’s been hiding her from us.

Levi: Okay, then where would you guys suggest going?

I grabbed my water and took a drink while I waited, and those three little dots bounced around.These guys were ridiculous, as if the place I’d been planning on taking Scarlett was too over-the-top for a first date.In my mind, nothing would ever be too over-the-top for Scarlett.

Colton: I don’t know.Maybe cook the girl dinner at your apartment for a first date.That is what I would do.

Clay: Even if you want to impress her?

Colton: What’s that supposed to mean?

Dylan: I’ve seen your cooking, let’s just say that was a fair question.

Colton: I’ll bring you lunch or dinner next week.May not look great, but the shit I cook takes fucking amazing.

Dylan: I’ll take your word for it.

Levi: Look, I’m gonna go relax, I’m open to suggestions when you guys have any…

Knox: What about The Lighthouse?

Levi: She’s allergic to seafood

Dylan: What about The Sunset?

Levi: Okay, I’ll entertain that one.

Clay: I’m sure wherever you decide to take her she’ll love it.

Lucas: I’m with Colton.Make her dinner.Or better yet, hire Colton to make dinner for the pair of you.

Colton: I’m not a chef…

Dylan: we know ;)

Knox: Yes, we know that.

Colton: Kill it…lol

Levi: I could make her dinner, but Mia…

Lucas: Shit, I forgot about the little one…

Colton: Plus, he can’t just take her back to his bedroom after dinner with that little peanut running around.

Levi: My god, guys, it’s a first date…jesus…what do you think I am?

Colton: stopped no one before…a little wine…a little candlelight, soft music and the girls melting in the palm of your hand…or better yet, you’re melting in the palm of hers.

Dylan: That could be true, if she isn’t throwing up after she ate what you cooked, haha

Knox: Sure is, all that romantic stuff gets Lorelai every time…

Levi: I’ve got to go, Mia is up.
