Finally, a Real Date: Cam Attn: Haley

[Cameron Whitlock III]

Cameron took a deep breath as he looked at himself in the mirror. He'd gone to the Saks in Beverly Hills after school and had the people working there dress him. He wanted to look perfect for Haley. And he did...well, he thought he did a good job. He had black pants and a black vest over top a red button down. He normally didn't try with his clothing but he really wanted to look good for Haley.

He'd called her to tell her what time he'd be there and timed it all perfectly. He headed down to his car--a brand new Aston Martin, which he thought was the coolest car ever. He'd only just gotten his license in the past month but the car had been waiting for him the moment he did.

He drove to Haley's arriving there exactly on time. He parked the car in her driveway and headed up to the front door. His heart was pounding and he took a deep breath before ringing the bell.

[Haley Rowan]

Haley went home after school. She loved getting dressed up. she always wore the best clothes to school. Looking is good is something Haley did. She went through he closet not sure how fancy to go. It was Valentine's day so Haley decided to go all out and dress up. She picked a light blue dress with black straps. it was short. Haley knew it was cold so she would wear a black trench coat, but she did not mind a little cold. She liked to show off. Besides she could not wait to see Cam's face.

Haley heard the doorbell ring while she was finishing her makeup, so her father Glen answered the door. Haley's father was a tall man with glasses. He was a hefty man who looked like he was dangerous. Glen answered the door and looked Cam over. No smile. "You're Haley's date?" Glen was almost happy about that. "Come in son." Glen moved to allow Cam to enter.

"I admit you are not who Haley usually brings home. I was expecting buffer." He looked Cam over and nodded, "Just have her home by ten. It's a school night. No corrupting my daughter. No sex, drugs, or drinking. I know people."

Haley walked down the stairs as her father spoke, "Dad. You know better." She walked over to her dad and kissed his cheek, "I don't think you have anything to worry about. If anything I will be doing the corrupting." She smiled and laughed.

Glen gave his daughter a look, "I can believe it. have a good night."

Haley turned to look at Cam, "You look dashing. You ready to go." She walked over to grab a small black purse and her black overcoat. "I hope my dad did not scare you. he is a little....outspoken."


(OOC: I am not sure how to do the whole outfit of the day thing, but here is a link to a website where I found the dress I figured Haley would wear. www.edressme.com/irt6d634.html)

[Cameron Whitlock III]

"Hello, Mr. Rowan. I'm Cameron Whitlock," Cam said introducing himself as he followed the man's instructions and walked inside. He left out the III part because, really it was a bit unnecessary he thought. Cam wasn't sure what to say when her father went on. So he wasn't the typical guy Haley dated...he sort of already knew that...but it still made him feel a little bad about himself. He'd really tried hard to look good for her.

Cameron nodded when he told her when she needed to be home and about the no sex, drinking and drugs thing...he hadn't really been planning any alcohol and definitely no drugs. He'd sort of been hoping for the sex, but knew that his chances were probably slim there too, so it wasn't as if it was a huge disappointment. "You have no need to worry about that," Cam said, trying to sound confident even though he was slightly intimidated. "And I'll have her home by 10 on the dot." That only gave them 3 hours...he hoped that it was enough time. They wouldn't get to see as much of the music, but he supposed it would be okay. Perhaps they'd just do dinner and head home after that. He'd take Haley to the other place another time.

His eyes lit up when Haley came down the stairs. She looked so beautiful. He couldn't help but smile, snapping out of it when Haley talked about corrupting him. Okay, he kind of wanted to be corrupted...he was her boyfriend now and he wanted to have sex with her, but her dad didn't need to know that. But Haley's dad seemed okay with her statement. Maybe he thought she was joking.

Cam smiled again when she commented on his looks. "Thanks," he said, "I went shopping after school," he admitted. "You look...well, its hard to think of a word to even describe it, so I'll have to go with amazing, but for the record, you look more than amazing."

He said good bye to her father, telling him it was nice to meet him and all that polite stuff you were supposed to say when you first meet someone before headed outside towards his car. "Your dad was okay...just looking out for you," Cam said. Okay, he had been a little scary, but since Cam's intentions were all good ones, he was pretty sure he didn't have to worry.

Getting into his car, he smiled at her. "I hope you are hungry," he said. "The place I'm taking you...it's right across the street from this other place I wanted to take you...this music venue, but since you have to be back at 10:00 I'm not sure we'll make it there," he admitted. "Stuff doesn't really start there until later, like 9:30, so I guess let's just do dinner and we can have part two of the date another time."

Cam waited for Haley to get into the car before heading out.

[Haley Rowan]

Haley smiled when Cam said she looked better then amazing. She did a little twirl before him. Kay Haley was a little vain. She never got tired of compliments. She loved them. Haley walked out to Cam's car. "That's one hell of a car Cam. Very nice." An Aston Martin....wow....she had yet to be in one of those. Haley smiled as she got in. The first thing she did was bring down the mirror and add on more peach lip gloss. One of her favorites because it had a hint of shimmer.

Haley laughed and buckled her seat belt when Cam said he would have her home on time, "My dad is going to love you. I have never been on time for curfew since my first date." It was true. On her first date the Brent kept her out until 12:30. "Its okay if we break my curfew. Unless you have one. I will tell you a secret. My dad is wrapped around my little finger. If I am happy then so is he."

Haley was aware she was spoiled. She was very spoiled being an only child. It was part of the reason she thought she could keep her relationship with both boys a secret and still be popular. Haley was use to getting her way. "I am starving. So let's go. I can't wait to see where we are going. I love surprises." She was happy. She was curious what Cam had in store, "oh and as for the corrupting comment....iI assure you its all true." She winked.

[Cameron Whitlock III]

"Thanks," he beamed, glad Haley liked his car. He'd picked it because it was what James Bond drove in a bunch of the movies, including the most recent ones, but he wasn't going to admit that to her. Bond or no Bond, it was still a really awesome car. He opened the door for Haley first before walking around to the other side of the car and getting in.

"No...no, he said 10. I think it's best to stick to the curfew. Maybe we can do something over the weekend where I can keep you out later," he suggested. The Hotel Cafe would have to wait for another time, but they still had reservations at Ketchup and he was excited to take her there.

"I'm not complaining," Cam said. "Just how do you plan on corrupting me though?" he asked, giving her a look as he started to drive. The restaurant was in Hollywood so it wasn't a far drive. He drove up to the restaurant and pulled up to the valet. "This is it," he said with a smile. "It's one of my favorite places because its really nice but you can still get a burger and fries," he grinned as he got out of the car and handed his keys to the valet.

Once his car was taken care of, Cam walked over to Haley and took her by the arm. "Shall we?" he said with a smile as he headed towards the restaurant.

[Haley Rowan]

Haley laughed, "Oh yeah. My dad is going to love you. Which is why I must corrupt you." Although Haley knew all about being corrupted. Brent was a bad guy and she vowed never to talk to him again. Sex, drugs and drinking was how she had been corrupted. She had a different corruption in mind for Cam. Something much more innocent. A few parties, and breaking a few rules.

She smiled at him, "Just wait an see. I have a few things in mind, but first we can start with a party. Friday night. Aly invited me to a party at the Standard Hotel for some guy she knows. We can start there." Haley offically invited Cam to a popular party, with the popular crowd. She got out of the car and looked at the place.

"I have never been here before. Very nice." She took his hand and looked around. She liked the layout. The white chairs and the red like atmosphere. Very nice. "Oh the night of the party we might want to get a hotel room in the same place. It all depends if you plan to drink or not. Sometimes its a good idea just in case." Haley had honestly not thought about Cam and sex. Not because she did not want to, but more because he seemed so innocent, she did not want to scare him by her experience. "Do you have any ideas on how I should..." She emphasized the word should, "corrupt you?" She laughed a little at the idea.

[Cameron Whitlock III]

"You don't want your dad to like me?" Cam asked. Maybe it was a rebellious thing...either way, Cam hoped he could find a way for both Haley and her father to like him. The last thing he needed was Haley's father trying to break them up or something. He finally had Haley and he was going to do whatever he had to in order to keep her.

"Oh great," Cam said. "I went there for a banquet thing with my parents once--it's really nice. I will book a suite for us there," he confirmed. He hadn't really thought about drinking. To be honest, he hadn't really drank before...just a few sips here and there.

"I'm glad you like it," Cam said about the restaurant. They only had to wait a minute before the hostess brought them to their table and handed them menus. "Like I said, its upscale but relaxed at the same time--that's why I like it. I mean...I could have taken you to an uber fancy place...but I thought you might enjoy this more. And like I mentioned before...the other place I had wanted to take you is across the street. But we will go there another time. It's supposed to be 21 and up but my dad knows the owner so they let me in anyway," he explained. He opened the menu and started to look it over even though he pretty much already knew what he wanted.

Cam looked at her from over his menu when she asked how he wanted to be corrupted. He could think of quite a few ways...but did he dare say? Well...she was his girlfriend now...right? That meant... Cam smirked, "Well, why don't we start with that hotel room tomorrow night."

[Haley Rowan]

Haley smirked and laughed, "I don't think you get it. You're so cute." She smiled and took a seat. She opened the menu and mouthed thank you to the hostess, "My dad likes who I like. Get it. He was just giving you a hard time to see your reaction. He likes to bug my boyfriends, but if I like you, he will like you." Haley explained.

"I like this place. Fancy is nice, but to be honest, I am just as comfortable here as I would be in a nicer place. Besides you don't have to impress me. I am already impressed." She told him. He was so adorable. Definatly the total opposite of her other exes. Which was a nice change.

"I am looking forward to going there. 21 or up is fine with me. So can you get in anywhere?" That was definatly cool. It opene dup a world pf possibilities for dates. She was intriqued with what Cam could do.

She looked at her menu and looked up already deciding to have the Shake'n'Bake. she looked at Cam and smirked, "And what does that mean exactly? What do you think will happen in that room?" Haley gave him a cutsey look, "I am sure I will come up with something."

[Cameron Whitlock III]

Cam blushed when Haley said he was cute. Cameron knew he wasn't terrible in the looks category but being on the lower end of the social totem pole he'd never exactly had a ton of girls trying to get his attention. So it wasn't often he heard that someone thought he was cute...and the fact that Haley was saying it was even better!

"Okay..." he said, but he was still hesitant. Haley's dad had seemed pretty insistent on the whole curfew thing. He wouldn't fight her on it now, but he'd already decided he'd have her home one time.

"I'm glad you like it," Cam said, really glad that he'd made the right choice. He'd been a little nervous when Haley had told him to pick something he liked. After all, he'd never really taken a girl out before so he was glad he'd gotten it right.

"I don't know about anywhere," Cam said. "My dad knows a lot of people though, so I guess it would depend on the place. I've only been to places where bands I like are playing and stuff, usually they don't care because they know I'm not really going to drink anyway...I go more for the music...plus, I'm usually on my own so...I guess its just different," he shrugged. Cam really hadn't had much in the way of alcohol...just wine with dinner sometimes. His parents didn't really care if he drank or not so it wasn't as if he felt the need to rebel either. He wasn't opposed to drinking more, especially if that's what Haley liked to do...but he wasn't about to go off and do it on his own just for the sake of doing it.

Cameron blushed again when she persisted about the hotel room. He didn't want to actually say the words...it was far too embarrassing... "I dunno..." he mumbled, "whatever....you wanted...I'm up for...any kind of corrupting you want to do...."

[Haley Rowan]

Haley sipped her water she ordered. Her father was wrapped around her little finger. Seeing him be hard on her boyfriends was fun. Haley asked him to play the mean dad just to see how they would react. Cam had reacted just as she expected. He wanted her home on time. Cam had a lot to learn about the popular life, but being on home sounded good. Having a guy be nice and not rush through dinner just to get to the special dessert was nice. This whole thing was nice and that why Haley was enjoying it. No pressure for once.

"What kind of music are you into?" She wondered. Haley was into pretty much anything. Maybe not rap but she would give anything a chance at least once. How would you know if you like something unless you try it out.

Haley laughed as Cam said the last part about being corrupted. She reached across the table and laced her fingers with his, "I can corrupt you in a lot of ways." she smiled, "But I am sure as you said I will think of something." She winked at him. That was probably the best part about Cam. he was so corruptible. She was not planning to turn him into some bad guy who broke all the rules, but this would be fun, and exciting. New and refreshing. "Listen.....there is no pressure here. So if you don't want to do something...or you are not ready to...then just let me know." she was referring to if he was ready for sex or not, but she did not say it since they were in public.
