What time is it? It's Date Time!
For about the three hundredth time, Wendi checked herself over in the mirror.  It was just supposed to be a casual date (a post-holiday follow-up to the coffee from after the Christmas party), though it had gotten pushed back a bit after everything that had gone on.

God.  Poor Mickey.   Wendi still couldn't believe she'd run off like that.  The pep talk from Jerry had helped some, but she'd been skittish about showing her face around the brownstone ever since.  

She swallowed.  That wasn't what tonight was about.  This was about having a life.  About moving on and getting back to normal.  About being Wendi Tyler and not just Hourgirl.

She checked the clock.  Zack should be there to pick her up soon.  

She checked the mirror again.   Did she have time to change?  No.  She was just going to have to go with it.

"WENDI!" Belle shouted into the back of the house, "your date's here!"

"She'll be down in a minute."

"Thank you." He smiled politely and waited.

Sparing a glare for Belle as she came to the door, Wendi smiled when she saw Zach.

"Hi," she said. "I apologize in advance for anything she's done, or will do, or anything any of my other sisters or brother will do."

Zach laughs a little and offers Wendi first the flowers and then his arm. He's a little formal, perhaps.

"She didn't do anything terrible or requiring an apology. Nothing embarassing, I promise. Are you ready?"

A definite gentlemen, Wendi reflexes, taking both. "Thank-you," she says.

"Yeah, well, I'm used to either her or Danette embarrassing me. So I like to get it out of the way."

"I am."

"Excellent." Zach lead her out to his car and then opened the door for her before going around and getting behind the wheel.

"I don't have siblings myself," he offered. "But I can see how they'd be a little embarassing."

"Would you like to borrow some of mine?" Wendi laughed. "I have three sisters, a brother, and a player to be named later."

"Nah, I think I'm good. I'm not sure the world wants me to have siblings. I'd probably torment them a great deal by running circles around them at great speed."

Wendi laughed at that. "Trust me, it doesn't help that much when you can actually do that."

"Well, so far, I'm the only one who's got an active metagene," Wendi said. "So at least we haven't escalated into super-powered sibling warfare."

"Yeah," Wendi agreed. "It'd probably be pretty bad."

Zach blinked.

"Seriously?"

"That's..interesting. Well, good for her. There are people in the world who like that type. The rest of us..." he glanced over to Wendi and smiled.

Wendi felt her cheeks redden as she blushed.

She looked over at Zach and smiled. "Artsy's good."

"Yeah it is. So, tonight you have the options of Italian, Mexican, or Chinese. What's your pleasure?"

"Chinese sounds good," Wendi told him.

"Then Chinese it is."

Zach turns left, then right and parks in front of an older-looking building. It's quiet, kind of unassuming. He gets out first and is quick to the door, opening to let her out of the car and then opening the restaurant door for her as well.

"This place is great."

Okay, yeah, Zach was definitely a total gentleman.

"Thanks," she says, as she gets out.

"It looks nice," she added. "You've been here before?"

"A couple of times, but usually I just do the take-out." He waited for them to be shown to a table and then he pulled out Wendi's chair.

"I don't really eat out too much. But I can't cook, so..."

"Really?" Wendi asked as she sat down. "I can cook. Some stuff, anyway. I still do, sometimes, when the folks are away."

She skewed up her courage a little bit. "Maybe I could cook for you some time."

"I would really like that," Zach smiled widely and his eyes lit up. "You'd really do that?"

"Oh, sure," Wendi said. "Um, assuming pasta's okay. Because that's mostly what I can do."

Wendi giggled a little at that. "Yeah, I guess not."

Wendi giggled at that. "You know, I think she just might have."

She smiled. "Nobody better to have in your corner though."

"I definitely wouldn't want her NOT in my corner. I'm surprised she brought me to your party. That took some trust."

Wendi herself had been kinda surprised by that. "Yeah," she admitted. "Though really, not that many of us have secret ids or anything... and those of us that do aren't really celebrities.'
