After weeks of hectic rehearsals and long hours at the bakery, Luke and Nic finally had time for a proper date night. Nic wanted to do something special, so she spent extra time getting ready, slipping into a sleek, black dress that clung to her curves in all the right places. She paired it with stilettos and bold red lipstick, giving her look a sultry edge.

When Luke arrived to pick her up, his reaction was priceless. His eyes widened, and he let out a low whistle. "Wow, Nic, you look...incredible."

Nic blushed, giving him a playful twirl. "You like?"

"Like? Nic, you're going to make every guy in the restaurant jealous," Luke said, stepping closer to her. "Including me."

Nic chuckled, feeling a surge of confidence. "Well, you're not looking too bad yourself, Newts," Luke said in a tailored suit, the jacket fitting his broad shoulders perfectly and his chest hair peeking out. His hair was tousled in that effortlessly stylish way she loved, and the smell of his cologne made her head spin.

They made their way to a fancy restaurant downtown, the soft lighting and romantic ambiance setting the perfect mood. As they sat down, Nic couldn't help but steal glances at Luke, feeling a surge of affection for the man sitting across from her.

"So," Luke said, breaking the comfortable silence, "any more plans for world domination with the bakery?"

Nic laughed, shaking her head. "Not quite. I'm just trying to keep up with the demand right now."

Luke smiled, reaching across the table to take her hand. "You're doing great, Nic. And I'm so proud of you."

Nic felt her heart swell, her chest tight with emotion. "Thanks, Lukey. That means a lot coming from you."

Their date was filled with laughter, teasing, and moments of quiet intimacy. Luke had a way of making Nic feel like the only person in the room, and she couldn't help but think that this—being with him—was exactly where she was meant to be.
