Narrator's POV

Luis walked y/n to her hotel room so she could shower and get ready for lunch with Fergal and Vero. He was nervous about it. Although he couldn't understand why after all Fergal was a close friend but he also meant a lot to y/n and well y/n was slowly but surely meaning a lot to him too.

"Um. So uh y/n. Do you have plans tonight?" asked Luis.

"A pint of Ben and Jerry's and something on Peacock probably. Why?" she said.

Luis rubbed the back of his neck "Well maybe we could go out for dinner. You know just the two of us and then maybe we can go out dancing?" he said "There is a little dance club not far from here and well we had fun yesterday at the club and we-" he stopped as y/n put a finger on his lips.

"Take a breath. I would love to join you for dinner and dancing," she said with a smile.

"You would?!" he asked with her finger still on his lips.

Y/N removed her finger "I would," she said placing a hand on his cheek "Luis if you haven't noticed I enjoy your company and I am enjoying getting to know you. A nice dinner is a great idea to get to know each other better with good food, a great conversation and and an amazing dining partner," she stood on tip toe and kissed his lips "I will see you later for lunch," She unlocked her door and went in but before shutting the door "By the way. I will be wearing a purple silk dress to lunch," she smiled and closed the door, locking it from the other side.

Luis practically floated over to his door. Their first proper date was only hours away. Now only if he could get through lunch without screwing something up. He wanted to show Fergal he was worthy of loving y/n.

Damian's POV

I finished getting ready for lunch. I wore a long sleeved black button down and black slacks. I finished off with black dress shoes. I look in the mirror on the back of the bathroom door and snapped a quick photo before sending it to Demi.

Does this look okay? Having lunch with y/n, Fergal and Vero. I want to make a nice impression.

On Fergal?
One of your closet friends?
Dude. This isn't a job interview
to be y/n's beau.
This is a casual lunch
with friends.
Take a breath and relax.
You will be fine. I promise.
Go have fun and
enjoy y/n's company.

Thank you Demi. I do appreciate your honesty.

Dude! DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!
Now you're going to be late.
Stop texting me and GO!

I took a deep breath before grabbing my purple dress jacket pulling it on. I opened my door pulling it close behind me as I stepped out of the room. I walk across the hall and knock waiting for y/n.

A few moments pass and my heart is thudding against my chest that I am convinced everyone could hear it. When y/n opened the door. I couldn't help the breath escaping my lips.

"Wow. You're beautiful," I said.

She blushed "Thank you. You look very handsome," she said stepping outside of her hotel room as Fergal and Vero came out their hotel room.

"Aww. Babe. Look. They're matching," she said as Fergal pulled the door closed.

He looked between us and smiled "You do know this isn't a job interview to be y/n's boyfriend right?" he chuckled "This is just lunch in the hotel restaurant," he wore a short sleeved button down and black pants. Vero wore a simple green dress.

"Well I just wanted to look nice for y/n," I admit.

Y/N blushes "And I wanted to look nice for you," she said looking at me.

"Oh lord. We are just players in your love story aren't we," said Fergal.

"No," we both said quietly. But anyone with eyes and half a brain could see otherwise.

"Uh huh. Sure. And I am an actual part demon," he said offering Vero his arm.

Y/N and I exchange glances both of us blushing before I offer my arm to her "Mi amor?" I said. She smiled lacing her arm with mine.

"Sweet talker," she said.

"I will always be with you," I said as we fell into step with one another and follow Fergal and Vero to the bay of elevators.

At lunch.....

"So y/n. What was Fergal like as a kid?" asked Vero sipping a margarita.

"Well. Eeriely how he is now. Just a bit less muscles and well shorter," said y/n sipping her margarita.

"Hey. I wasn't short!" said Fergal taking a drink of his beer.

"Ferg. You and I were the same height until you were thirteen and then you hit a growth spurt," said y/n.

Vero smiles at Fergal "You're not short anymore," she said.

"And what was y/n like as a kid?" I asked taking a drink of my beer.

"A shorter and more annoying version of her now," teased Fergal.

"Hey!" said y/n "I was never annoying!"

Vero and I exchange looks "They're really like siblings," I said.

Vero laughed "Yep," she said.

Fergal and y/n look at one another before smiling and laughing "We really are," she said.

Fergal nods "We are," he said.

"But seriously what was y/n like as a kid," I said.

"Quiet, shy, sweet. Unfortunately she was a target of bullies," said Fergal "Sucked getting her letters in Ireland and she was in the US. Broke my heart even as a kid to hear what she was going through. No one ever took the time to really get to know her. Had they. They would have gotten to know how sweet, kind, smart and funny she actually is. A lot of people lost out knowing her. But I am so grateful I did and still do. And you're lucky if she let's you into her orbit because she values you."

Y/N smiled softly before looking at me and I at her "I am very lucky," I said "Guess I got the luck of the Irish on my side."

Fergal groans and y/n playfully rolled her eyes "You didn't just say that?" she laughed placing a hand over mine. My heart began to race "I think it's all you Luis."

I took my hand from under hers before taking her hand and lacing our fingers. I kissed the back of her hand "Luck. Me. I don't care. All I do care about is I get to stare into those y/e/c eyes for as long as you let me."

Fergal gagged "Yuck. I am trying to not throw up over here," he teased.

"Oh hush," said Vero "I think it's sweet."

Y/N smiled at me "And if I get to stare into those beautiful brown eyes for as long as you let me. I will be one lucky lady."

Luckily for Fergal our lunch came and the mushy stuff was over for now. He really was like a brother to her. Happy when she was happy but also didn't really like when his sister got mushy with a romantic interest.

We ate and talked. Found out y/n had major crushes on all the late eighties and early nineties teen heartthrobs. From Joey Lawrence to Joey McIntyre and of course like every other 90s girl, JTT. Also found out Fergal had an irrational fear of frogs. Oops to the margaritas. I was quite enjoying getting to know more and more about y/n and finding out some stories about my good friend Fergal.
