There were no crimes or emergencies, but he did have a moment there where he thought he was going to be late, due to 'business' in the house. He had been waffling between being at ease and excited for this date, which was strange, and then to angry and snippy, because of others. Christopher told the others he had been mooning over a pretty girl at the bar who totally was a badass, and of course everyone had to inquire what was going on. It put him in such a foul mood by morning workout. And when he was getting ready, Marcus cornered him.
In his annoyance to leave, instead of taking the car he had intended form the garage, he swiped Marcus' bike, because he did totally remember that bike comment, even if he's not admitting it to himself.
When he gets there and pulled the helmet off he moved to fix his hair in the glass of a car near by, growled at himself for caring. "Get ahold of yourself, Ben. It's just a date." Except in truth, he hadn't been on a proper date in over a decade. DATES were different after all.
But he headed towards the front, and saw her there in white and being fucking beautiful. Damn, so it wasn't just drunk brain who thought of her as stunning. Shit. He smiled though, coming closer. He has on a leather coat still, because of the ride, and a black Henley shirt over comfortable jeans. Not as fancy as her, but he had a comfortable style to him at least?

"Hi to you too. I'm almost surprised you came."
