chapter 2

Riley left the house and approached the car, she paused for a second to take in how beautiful it was before getting in.

“You never told me you had a lambo”

“You never asked”, Zach jokingly responded.

“Hahaha, I guess I didn’t”

“You look absolutely stunning by the way”, Zach wasn’t lying, Riley had a beautiful figure hugging red dress on and it really flaunted her perfect body.

“Not so bad yourself”, Riley replied.

“Thank you very much. You ever been in a car like this before?”

“Nope, nothing even close to this”, Riley replied.

“We better get going our reservation is in 15 minutes, buckle up”

Riley and Zach got out of the car and the valet took it away, Riley immediately noticed how expensive this restaurant looked, it was Italian which was one of her favourite types of food. There was no question her date was of to a great start. They made their way through the restaurant to a lovely private booth and took their seats.

“Could I get you both some drinks while you look over our menu?”, asked the waiter.

“Could I have a strawberry daiquiri?” Riley asked.

“I’ll have a corona mate, cheers”, said Zach.

“Not a problem I’ll be back shortly with your drinks”, replied the waiter.

“Do want to get a starter?”, Zach asked.

“No way I’ll burst out of this dress haha, just a entrée for me, well maybe a dessert too, I do have a little tiny bit of a sweet tooth”

"No problem haha, I’m the same, can’t beat a dessert"

“I think I’ll get the carbonara”. Riley said.

“And I think I’ll just go ahead and copy you cause that actually sounds pretty good”

The waiter returned with their drinks and took their orders, now that was out of the way Riley had a lot of questions on her mind, like how is this 24 year old guy driving a brand new Lamborghini and why would he keep the fact that he clearly has money so quiet, most 24 year old guys with the kind of money he has wouldn’t be able to go 2 minutes without showing it off.

“So Zach, what’s your story, how on earth do you own a car like that at 24?

“To be completely honest I would say I had a bit of luck come my way, I was a brick mason back in England from when I was around 17, made alright money I guess for my age, around £500 a week. Basically when I was 19 I had about £10k saved and I put into the stock market, I invested £8k into some company I had heard some good things about and after 6 months my £8k had turned into £300k, I say I was lucky because at the time I didn’t really know a lot about the stock market. After that big win I did take a lot of time to learn and I managed the grow my money into 7 figures by the time I was 21. Since then I’ve expanded and do a lot of other kinds of business as well. Anyways enough about me, what about you, where do you work?"

“I’m just an office administrator, I barely make $40k a year, and it’s boring as fuck”

“So was that always your dream?” Zach teased.

“I’ve never really had a big plan with what I wanted to do for work, just kinda been winging it and seeing what opportunities present themselves, I’m actually from a small town in Arizona but me and my best friend Amy moved out here about a year ago, just to live that Miami life ya know, don’t get me wrong we have great fun at the weekends but it’s a long and boring week working Monday to Friday and hitting the gym every night”

“That sucks, but maybe things could turn around for you”

Right as Zach finished his sentence the waiter arrived with their entrees.

“That smells amazing”. Riley said as she enjoyed the aroma.

The portion size wasn’t enormous but when is it ever in restaurant of this calibre. It was obvious Riley wasn’t fully comfortable eating in front of Zach by the way she was delicately picking away at her food as if she was some sort of princess, I mean, an image oriented girl like Riley wasn’t exactly gonna make a pig of herself in public, slowly but surely however she did clear her plate.

“Did you enjoy that”, asked Zach.

“Yeah it was amazing, easily the best carbonara I’ve ever had, I’m so full now tho”

The waiter came to collect the plates, “dessert menu for the beautiful couple?”

“Yes please”, Zach answered before Riley had a chance to to respond.

“No problem sir, be right back”

“I don’t know if I’ll manage a dessert Zach”, Riley complained.

“It’s cool if you don’t finish it you don’t finish it, I’m paying anyways of course”

“Thank god for that, I could never afford to eat here”, Riley laughed as the waiter arrived back with the menus.

***

The waiter brought out their desserts to them, Zach had decided to get the strawberry cheesecake, and Riley got the chocolate fudge sundae. They both dug in and Zach had noticed that Riley had seemed to loosen up a little.

“God that was good, I really have a weakness for ice cream”, Riley said as she finished her sundae. She could feel how bloated her stomach was in her tight dress.

“You don’t strike me as a girl who eats a lot of ice cream”, Zach said with a laugh.

“That’s because I don’t, just on rare occasions when I’m treating myself”

“Would you not just love to be able to eat it every day tho?

“Of course, who wouldn’t but I'd get so fat”

“What if you were getting paid thousands to eat it everyday?”

“Ummm, as in thousands per day? Then yes that’s easy money”, Riley said while breaking out in laughter. “I guess I’d just need to up my workouts”, she continued.

“Well what about getting paid to specifically gain weight?

“I’d maybe up my prices a little but hell yeah”, Riley answered still laughing.

“So do we have a deal?” Zach asked with a smile.

“Hold up, your serious? I thought you were just joking and talking about hypotheticals, I can’t get fa..”

“Let’s go back out to the car”, Zach cut in.

They both stood up and Zach pulled out his wallet, he must have just dropped about $1000 on the table, easily triple the price of the check. Riley couldn’t help but notice that was only a fraction of the money in his wallet.
