Thread: Love and Hate (jaceyboo & Google)

When at first Jenna had approached him about going out with a friend of hers, a blind date, Dominic Strauss had been a little bit skeptical about the entire set up. Why would he want to go out with a girl who couldn't find her own date? To Dominic it sounded like the girl would come with some kind of baggage, maybe a bad relationship she just got out of or she was just a little bit crazy.. People just didn't do blind dates anymore, there were apps that existed to let people find someone to spend time with based entirely around their physical apperence. Of course when he had raised those thoughts Jenna had assured him that the girl she was setting him up with wasn't crazy and when he had seen a picture from Jenna's phone he was able to see she was rather attractive. He was still suspicious but he had just finished a good long workout he knew Jenna from the gym they both used and wasn't seeing anyone at the time so he figured why not. Jenna said the girl was new in town and could use a night out on the town for some fun... and from the look of her Dominic knew just what kind of fun he wanted to have. That night when he had gotten home he had texted Jenna a movie time for later on that week, letting her know where she should have Sydney go for the actual date. It had been chosen very carefully, Dominic planned to give himself every single possible advantage from the movie choice to the location of an upscale and trendy bar nearby that wasn't too strict when it came to making sure that everyone who had a drink was of legal drinking age. On the night that he was going to be taking her out Dominic got home from work early, having passed his case files off to an intern for the weekend to makes notes on and brief him come Monday morning, when you were thirty one and on track to be made a junior partner before very long you could occasionally get away with taking some liberties. Before getting home he had stopped off at the gym for a nice long workout and then, feeling rather relaxed, he made his way to his apartment. A nice long shower, a bit of work done grooming his nails and the rest of his body, followed of course by the application of an appropriate amount of cologne sandalwood with a hint of vanilla. It was only when he was convinced that his body was clean and groomed that he took the time to get dressed, selecting a collared shirt and a matching pair of slacks, his favorite black lowtop Converse completing the look. The movie theater was only a few minute walk from the building his apartment was in, the reason that he had chosen that particular theater, and Dominic enjoyed the slight edge of a chill in the air as he made his way down the sidewalk. Already he had been sent a text to let him know exactlly what his date would be wearing, his eyes open and searching for a lovely red head in a black dress. He didn't have to wait very long, he could see her even as he was rounding a corner on the way to the theater, punctuality was one thing that he liked in a young woman. Actually there were quite a few things that he enjoyed in a young woman but the fact that Sydney had arrived early was a good sign. It had been a while since he had last been on a date, more often then not it was as easy as swiping his finger one way or the other on the screen of his smart phone in order to find himself some night time companionship... this though was the potential for something different and while Jenna might not know the particulars of his tastes what she had told Dominic made her sound promising. Approaching her, moving through the few people that were moving around like a wolf stalking towards his prey, eyeing her as if she was an isolated young doe just waiting to be dragged down and ravaged. From behind he drew closer to her, admiring the way the dress framed her body before reaching out and laying a hand on her shoulder. Sydney right? He asked as she turned around, a single look at her face making it clear to him immediately who she was. I'm Dominic, the picture Jenna showed me really didn't do you justice. It was true, she was an absolute vision, already his mind raced with possibilities... the potential she represented.
