Elixe eyes barely opened and he stretched his window shutters opening he looked at the sky. The light show the son had just now sunk below the horizon. He looked down at his feet to see a snoring bull dog and he smiled. “Lazy bum” He sat up and stretched pulling up his cell phone. He saw a message from Brinn and smiled.
“Just woke up, give me about 15 minutes before showing up”
Last time they were together they talked of her using her Date winning to come cook for him. While to him that wasn’t much of a date but he would take it all the same. He would of rather done the cooking for her for some reason. Seemed more prize worthy. He looked around the place he had purposely left it clean as possible since that day just incase she popped in. “hey wake up bum, we going to have guest got to look our best right” he had the cute voice people had when they addressed pets. As he rubbed bear’s belly and in returned got a face of dog slob. “Appreciate the help…” he laughed and stood removing his t-shirt. Tossing it in an open hamper right outside the door that lead to his bathroom. In a few short minutes he was showers and dressed.
When he came out Bear dropped a toy at his feet and looked up at him and Elixe laughed a little going to pick up the toy and begin the tug of war match between the two. A few minute in he heard the knock and looked up. “One Second!” he shouted at the door as he got the toy away and tossed to the side for the dog to chase. Then went to get the door opening it for her

Brinn took a deep breath, letting her fingers doing a once over her outfit before raising them to the door and knocking. She had a few bags of groceries with her, she had stopped by the market place to grab everything she needed rather than assume what he would have or wouldn't for that matter... She couldn't even remember how long it had taken her to decide what she was going to cook, and if it should be a short meal, long meal or whatever other question her brain could bring up to only make her more nervous. Brinn was doing her best while she waited for him to come to the door not to fidget or pace.... but it was failing as her fingers teased the sheer fabric that was the bottom of her dress.
Brinn smiled when he answered the door and she grinned " Hey" she would lean down picking up the three bags of groceries before heading in when invited. Kicking her 9 inch heels off to the side and she would grin a little bit sniffing the air " nice place, but you know you didn't have to keep it clean for my sake"

Elixe smiled as she came in. Before she had time to even set the groceries down The English bulldog came running around the corner barking but in a more excited and friendly way jumping up on her knee with two paws to get the attention he desired. “Bear! Down at least let her get in the door” He laughed a little and tugged bear by his collar gently and smiled petting the dog. “Brinn, this is Bear…The lovable lazy bum I live with” He stood back up and smiled. “Actually the most I kept clean was the dinner table I mostly just through mail and old newspapers there, and instead of dropping a shirt to the floor when I was done I actually remembers I had a laundry hamper.”
He walked with her to the kitchen and looked around a little nervous. “Soo cooking tools wise I have nearly everything…except a Wok I’ve been meaning to buy one of those” He laughed and moved around the Island counter in the kitchen trying to grab a peak at what was in the bag. “So what we making?” Bear had taken to sniffing around Brinns shoes and then her. Elixe shook his head. “bear go lay down” he spoke in a command but not mad voice he knew the dog was just looking out and making sure the strange woman was safe to have around. “c’mon ill give you the grand tour of the place…As you see you’re in the kitchen.” he took her through the dinning room and living room and show her where the restroom and the bedroom was and then walked with her back to the kitchen grabbing his laptop before they left his room.
When they got back he set his laptop down in front of them and smiled. “So you said you weren't tech savvy. And that got me thinking of some of the more wonderful things you missing out on of a Computer…one of my favorites…Pandora.” He pulled up the website and logged in then clicked a tab that said create a new station. “What’s your favorite type of music to listen to?” he smiled looking at her and left her the key board to type it in. For the website to play for her.

Brinn would move inside, only a few steps when she heard Bear coming so she couldn't help but laugh when she was shown great love by Bear. He was truly a beautiful dog, so she knelt down, using her free hand to scratch lightly behind the ear, where it seemed most K-9's were fond of being scratched. " You just smell the treat I brought for you, isn't' that right... " she grinned turning to Elixe.
" Can he have a treat, I didn't know what kind he would like so I actually brought a small variety of them but I do not want to assume anything" she would wait for an answer. If he said no she would nod and move into the kitchen but if he said yes she would grin setting a bag down to reach in and pull out a large rawhide bone that was about the size of her forearm.
" Here you go big guy, the guy at the store said these were extremely popular and lasted a couple of days usually" she grinned giving behind the ear a rub before heading to the kitchen.
Brinn looked over to him shaking her head " that is for you to wait and find out, not to mention you are not helping! The whole point is I cook for you, and you get to sit and relax, be treated and if that is a problem well you can pop the cork on the wine so that you feel productive" she winked so that he would know she was kidding. Brinn grinned looking down as Bear moved around her feet and she couldn't help but giggle
" See, that is exactly why we need a dog around our table..... it would make life so much easier for the doggen" she chuckled moving some of the ingredient into the fridge making sure that he didn't see them before hand.
" Yeah that sounds great" she would brush her fingers along her dress before following behind him, her eyes taking in every corner of the place, nodding ever so slightly at random things so he knew she was observing. When they finally got back to the kitchen she would smile
" Its a really nice place" she would pause looking at the computer, her face staying neutral on the subject, and with much effort. She was not a fan of computer, in part because she probably didn't know how to use them... but the other there was so many other things to be doing but....she knew he was into them so she would try to remain neutral. Brinn moved into the kitchen looking over her shoulder shrugging a little bit.
" I like a little bit of everything, I like a lot of heavy beats but there are times I enjoy classical, I am more of a song by song kinda person...,but that is why they have cd's or why parents have kids so that they can load things up on the ipod things for them" she shrugged moving into the kitchen further pulling things out of the fridge and onto the counter so that she could start getting things ready, she had elected to serve a bigger meal... but looking at the computer she couldn't help but wonder if that was a mistake.

Elixe looked at the computer and smiled closing it. “I have those to” he laughed nervously and looked at his entertainment system walking over to it and scanning the cd from Recorded Classical collection to some more modern hip hop mostly stopped in the era of early 2000 music. “Ok so Maybe im not very good at this” he laughed still with nervous undertone and watched Bear took the bone and somewhere in the living room the slobbering and crunch of it could be heard.
He walked to a cabinet, she had mentioned something about wine so he got down two wine glasses. Then got out a cork screw. “This should be interesting, never really got into the craze of wine…so Cant say I ever had any of it…Red, White…any” He smiled and set the glasses and screw on the island counter and looked at her. Half waiting to find out what else he could help with not wanting to sit down or anything. He tired to peak into what was left of the bags to see what else she brought.
“Alright my kitchen is yours, and I can respect that. But could you at least let me help…something to keep my mind busy and less nervous” he rubbed the back of his head and looked her over in the dress and smiled. “and incase I failed to mention it. You look amazingly beautiful.”

Brinn shook her head as she glanced over to him, her nose twitching and she couldn't help but feel a little bad. He was really into these things and she was in to him so she was going to have to learn how to be interested or less intimidated by them anyway. Brinn would take a deep breath " Thank you, but you are doing fine... you have nothing to be worried about, I am just not a huge tech person but perhaps not on our first real date, like maybe our next hang out kinda date you can show me computers?" she figured she would extend that and assure him that at this point she was thinking about having another one.
Brinn grinned as she pulled out a cutting board, a nice knife and a big bowl before glancing to him " do you like cleaning mushrooms, I hate it, so if you would like to clean the mushrooms I would consider it a great act of chivalry" she chuckled as she passed him the brown bag full of mushrooms.
Brinn would start chopping up the various veggies into small little squares, and she wasn't chef fast but she was faster than the average individual, her eyes glancing to him without worry of cutting herself and she would shake her head looking back to what she was doing. " I cannot remember, you said you like..those game things that people play with controllers right?"
She would give him a moment to think about what she was talking about " maybe you can show me one of those, like an easy one that doesn't take a whole lot of skill and we can play"
