So, I don't know if you're avoiding me or we just keep missing each other but I want to apologize for yesterday. I'll try to let you know ahead of time when I'm gonna bring someone home next time. Let me take you out for lunch or dinner or something to make it up to you, okay? Or buy you alcohol. Your choice.

I suck at this kinda stuff. What's the protocol for gifts for a guy you've been kinda seeing for a month, aren't sleeping with and who knows you've got a husband in another country?

- Lil

PS: It totally sucks that YOU are the one that I have to ask.

If we're going out to dinner, you need a date or Bishop's gonna look like some rap star with two hot blondes on his arms and I'm not letting that go to his head - either one, for that matter. We're getting you a date and that's final.

Oh my god Lil! I think Bishop will be able to cope, though I'm not sure you really want to suffer through what will probably be an incredibly awkward evening! I've just never been out with anyone before, on a double date or otherwise!

... Never? As in never ever been on a date with anyone?? You're shitting me.

And this doesn't have to be a real date; just friends going out. Think of it that way.

NEVER?!?

Well no! Dating wasn't really done back home, and since I've been here there hasn't really been anyone I've been interested in like that! And the guys at college are... mostly jerks.

... I think I can do that. Just friends! And you make sure he knows that as well!

Yes, really never!

I told you, perfect gentleman or I rip off his man bits... unless of course, I made an assumption and you'd rather me find you a girl dinner partner instead?

I'm just trying to be a good suitemate and didn't want you to think I was judging or anything if that's what you preferred.

I'll find a guy for you whenever we decide to have this little dinner party.

No no, it's fine! I guess it is a little lame that a girl my age has never been on a date, and that's a perfectly good reason why!

I really don't think it's necessary, but I'm not going to be able to change your mind on this one, am I?

<3 Amara.

Virgin, I figured. Naive... yeah (but in a good way!). Never been on a date? Nope, never would have guessed.

And no, you're not. Head is as hard as a diamond, too, sweetie.

It's not something that usually comes up! It hasn't ever really bothered me at all, before I came to America I always just assumed my father would find someone for me to marry.

Well I HAVE heard that the only thing that can damage a diamond is heat. ;D

Woah, what? Okay, this has officially become a conversation we gotta continue face to face. I'll be back at the mansion in about a half hour. Will you still be up? Are you even there??

And not this diamond, it doesn't.

... I never did tell you much about Nova Roma, did I? And yes, I'm in my room! I was trying to study.

I will keep that in mind! :D

No, you didn't. There should be a bottle of wine in the fridge if you wanna pull that out. I'm just coming up on Harry's now so I'll see you soon.
