Before Ace could reply, there was an abrupt commotion, Dewey fumbling with the door before flinging it open. He didn’t have any broken limbs but using his arms put some strain on his ribs, so he clutched his hide as he leaned against the doorframe for support.

“DAD (something Dewey seldom called him), can you take a hint PLEASE.” Dewey practically wheezed with exasperation.

Ace was a little taken aback, and flushed slightly. In his humble opinion, this nurse was devastatingly adorable. She was plainly funny and witty, but Ace has been out of the game too long to even read signals let alone drop his own hints. Was he missing something?

Darla flushed, but gave a bark of laughter at Dewey’s sudden appearance and reaction.

“I thought I was being pretty obvious, but I guess maybe not, huh?” She said.

“I’m sorry, he’s a little slow to the draw. You’re gonna have to help him.” Dewey explained to the nurse.

Ace remained flushed. “Oh I guess I must be, I’m sorry??” He chuckled, unsure how to recover.

“That’s alright, you can be slow so long as you’re pretty too.” Darla smiled before offering up her hand. “I’m Darla.” She introduced at last.

Ace smiled softly, reassured.

“I’m Ace.” He said as he shook her hand. “Nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you, too. So am I going to have to outright ask for a number or will you ask?” Darla teased.

“I think you kind of just did.” Ace laughed but pulled his phone out of his pocket and offered it to her. “But will you do me the honor ?” He asked.

“Only if you promise to call.” Darla said as she took the phone.

“Scouts honor.” Ace laughed.

“Were you a scout? You don’t look like you were.” Darla teased as she put her number in. She went ahead and called her own phone so she’d have his number as well. “I’m usually off in the evenings and I almost always hand Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays off.” She explained as she handed the phone back.

“Well we’ll be in touch.” Ace smiled.

There had been some coordination over text for a little more than a week. Ace was consistently impressed by Darlas humor and wit, he felt increasingly assured of their chemistry and that their date would undoubtedly go well. He had originally planned something casual, a little cliche even. Ace hadn’t been on a real date since he was a teen, so he still thought Coney Island and streetfood was romantic.

Dewey was mortified when he heard.

Aces son was a tried and true romantic. He had been wooing Dimitra since they met and showed little evidence of letting up. The young boy thrives on romantic gestures and felt Darla deserved that. He immediately did some coaching and organizing, leaving Ace overwhelmed, but grateful. He certainly didn’t want to mess this up. There was a great and incredibly exclusive restaurant that hosted Kardashian’s and politicians, there was a dress code and most menu items had some form of edible gold in it or on it.

Dewey thought it was perfect.

He had his Dad fit for a new tailored suit which he was helping him with the night of, making sure his new cuff links were polished and gleaming.

“Okay, so the reservation is under your name. But your going somewhere else for dessert.” He explained.

“What if she wants dessert at the first place?” Ace asked.

“This dessert is better.” Dewey shrugged.

“Okay, but what if she wants dessert at the first place?”

“Then she gets two desserts.” Dewey sighed.

Darla was in the process of finishing up her hair and makeup when she decided to send Ace a quick playful text of whether or not the place he was taking her to was the kind of place she should be wearing stretch pants to (ala buffet or junk food).

They’d been talking for the better part of a week and so far... well she liked him. He was quieter, but still pretty witty himself. He wasn’t traditionally handsome but handsome nonetheless.

Ace heard his phone go off, he smiled and chuckled as he read it.

“Hm?” His son quizzed.

“Oh Darla, made a joke about wearing stretchy pants.” Ace shrugged with a chuckle.

Dewey paused. “You DID tell her it’s formal attire? Right?” He asked.

Ace paused. “I mean...No, not plainly so...?” He answered slowly, that felt like the wrong answer.

“Give me that,” Dewey sighed, snatching his phone out of his hand before dialing Darla.

Darla was poking through her closet, trying to find an outfit, when she heard her phone. She went to grab it from her vanity and quirked a brow with grin.

“Couldn’t wait for our date?” She teased.
