Rene kisses her cheek softly and guides her to his car. "As much as I would love to lingerin front of the fire, I think we have a date to finish." "To start." Celine corrects as Rene holds the door for her. She sits in the car and they make jokes and catch up while they head to dinner. Celine tells him everything he's missed out on while being with Jean-Pierre. Some of her siblings stopped by and teased her about her crush on him. She had to shovel snow when her father's back went out, and she slipped and ended up eating more snow than she shoveled. The whole time, Rene's hand never leaves hers. He plays with her fingers, encourages her to tell him more whenever she thinks she's said too much, and they enjoy the meal entirely. Of course he would choose her favorite restaurant to make up for the delay in their date. As if he needs to make up for anything at all. Once the finish, Celine bites her lip. She doesn't want the date to be over. She doesn't want to let him go, not even for a moment. "Can we go for a walk before we head back to the car?" "Anything for you, mon amour." He purrs before kissing her temple. They walk through one of the many parks, taking in the lights that are still up from New Years. In Celine's mind this is far better than any party. She'd rather be able to actually hear what Rene has to say, to share this walk with him, to be able to hold onto him every moment. Noparty can compare to the love in his eyes, the tender way he holds her or anything else. "Celine..." Rene starts. "We don't have to end the night right away. If you'd like ... you can come over to my place and we can continue this. "I'd love to." Celine whispers, her cheeks catching fire again. She knows that whenthey're alone, in private, their passion is going to ignite. And she can't wait to make the most of it. 


Rene 


 Bringing Celine home is a gift. Rene savors it. He holds her hand on the ride back, even

as she smiles and sings along to the radio. She brightens his whole life and doesn't seem to need to try. She does it just by being who she is without compromise or attempt to change. When they arrive, Rene grabs his suit and makes sure to escort Celine inside. He knows its her first time here, and can't imagine what is going through her mind. She looks over her shoulder as she dares to go deeper into his home.She touches the occasional decoration, runs her hand over the couch and then spins quickly. "This is beautiful, Rene.""More beautiful with you in it.""You're cheesy." She giggles. "But it works since I know you're sincere.""At least something saves me." He teases. "Take a look around. There's nothing off-limits to you.""Even the bedroom?" Celine asks, her eyes staying on a side table.Rene nods. "Even there.
