Madison had just finished her shift and decided to head out to dinner. Sitting down she looked around the restaurant, sipping a glass of wine as she waited for her food to arrive. It had been a bit of a stressful day and she was planning on just relaxing and enjoying her evening, whatever happened.

Albert had had a good day at work. His job was not an easy one, it was actually crazy and sometimes even dangerous. He was lucky that he had enough experience those days, because if he had been a youngster, he would have probably asked himself why the hell he chose this job. There are sharks everywhere, trying to eat you alive if you don't pay enough attention. But that day, had really been a good one. He was tired, because he had been working like crazy, but he still loved this job and was ready to do anything for it. However, he decided that he could enjoy a drink and dinner by himself at an expensive restaurant. He entered his favourite restaurant and sat down to his favourite table there. He started to look over on the menu, even though he knew it too well.

Maddy looked over, blinking as she thought she saw someone familiar. "Al?" she asked with a smile, giving a slight wave.

Albert looked up from the menu when he heard not his name, but his nickname. He passed a hand through his hair as he looked around. He didn't mind having company for dinner, not at all. He was sociable and he liked being around people. When he spotted the person who had called him, he couldn't help a smile. He got up from his table and walked over to the woman's. "Madison," he greeted. When she held out her hand, he gently took it and kissed it slowly. "What a pleasure."

She smiled, gesturing that he was welcome to sit and join her if he wished. "I wouldn't have picked you as one to dine alone," she teased him with a smile. "Was expecting some stunning blonde or something..." She took another sip of her drink and asked, "Rough day?"

Albert nodded with a smile as he sat down across from her. He laughed lightly when he was told that he was expected to be with a stunning woman or something like that. "Stunning blonde, you say? Well, I was not very hopeful when I entered this place, but it seems like right now, I'm with a stunning brunette," he said with a wink.

When she asked about his day, he shook his head. "No," he said. "Actually a really good one. How about you?"

She chuckled. "You're such a charmer," she said with a smile, looking into his brown eyes and trying not to blush.

She gave a slight shrug. "It wasn't too bad. Got to chase after bad guys, lock them up, the usual. And then avoid paperwork till the end of the shift," she joked.

Albert gave her a charming smile. He was a charmer, or at least so he had been told. But he was not a player. He wouldn't have just sleep around with women and forget them, he wouldn't break hearts like that. He listened to her words about her day. "Well, after all this chase you've had, I guess you have really earned yourself a dinner at this expensive restaurant, right?" he joked. Just like he had that night.

Even though she'd only met him a couple of times, Maddy sensed that despite his charms Albert was different to other guys she'd known.
She grinned at his words. "I think so. And I reckon so have you," she added with a smile, taking a sip of drink and looking up at him through her lashes.

Albert smiled and nodded. "So have I," he chuckled and had a closer look at her. To say that she was beautiful, was probably not enough. He had met beautiful women before, but none like her. She had this charm of herself, she just was...different. And he could see that only after they saw each other a few times. "Should we order?" he asked suddenly.

She brushed her hair out of her eyes and gave a slight nod. "Sure." Her eyes flickered down to the menu, quickly scanning it once again. "I think I'll go for something Italian tonight... Chicken fettuccine please," she said to the waiter who was hovering nearby. "And you?" she asked Albert.

Albert handed the menu to the waiter. "The same," he shrugged and turned his eyes back to Madison with a smile playing on his lips.

Under the table, her leg brushed up against his and she made no attempt to move it. "What do you think of the bomb scare that happened last night?" she asked, remembering a piece of news that would get the conversation going. Just last night police had suspected that an unattended bag was a bomb. Hours later it was revealed to be a hoax.

Albert smirked to himself as he felt her leg brushing against his. However, she did not retire it and made no attempt to move. When he heard her question, he rolled his eyes, but with the same smile on his face. "Oh man," he chuckled. "I hate when this happens, especially because lately it has happened a lot, you know it."

She nodded. "I know what you mean. Seems like we can't go one week without getting called in... It's getting quite frustrating..." She grinned, "On the bright side, it's nice knowing that the threat's removed and it won't blow up a zillion people."

Albert chuckled and nodded. "Oh yeah, haven't thought this way until now," he joked. He took another sip of wine, looking straight into her beautiful, blue eyes.

She grinned. "Well, gotta find a silver lining..." A familiar song played on the restaurant radio and she couldn't help but smile. "Ooh I love this song!" She couldn't help but look over at the dance area as she said it.

Albert quickly got the moment as Madison said that she loved the song and also glanced over at the dance floor. THat was the best moment of all. He elegantly got up from his chair and went around the table and up to her. He held out his hand, like a really gentleman, a sincere smile on his face. "Wanna dance?" he asked.

She smiled as she took his hand. "I'd like that..." She adored dancing and had been doing it since she was young, but mostly competitively as it was her favourite way of staying fit. It was nicer doing it just for fun though, she thought with a smile, especially with such a handsome man as Albert.

He smiled as she took his hand. He lead her to the dancefloor , looking at her all the time. It was a slow song, just perfect for the circumstances they were in. Or at least, so he hoped.

Maddy couldn't keep the smile from her face. She looked into his eyes as the pair danced, then as he gently spun her said, "You're very good at this..."

Albert gave her a smirk. "Not all the time," he said with a slight shrug. "Depends on the person I am with," he added and winked.

She chuckled, ever so slightly blushing. "Charmer," she teased sweetly.

He chuckled as well. "Gorgeous," he told her back with the same smile on his face.

This time she couldn't help but properly blush. "Thank you..."
