The Addison
5200 Del Mar Way
San Diego , CA
Teddy walked into the Addison wearing an all-black Armani suit. The Addison is easily the finest restaurant in San Diego. He still has a small bandage over his left eye, a memory of the 2x4 attack a week ago. The maître de attempts to sit Teddy at a table with no view. Teddy slips him a c note and he ushered Teddy to a 2 top with a stunning view.
Teddy: Thanks, when my date arrives, you’ll know it’s her, she’ll be the most beautiful woman you’ve seen in a while
(with that Teddy waits for Brooke to arrive.)

Walking into the spot impressed already by the location chosen. Some may like a low key dining location but not Brooke. She was a fan of the finest and most expensive places which Teddy had chosen. Stepping in wearing a very tight black dress with heels. Though she wasn't quite sure about Teddy yet, she was going to give him a shot. And there was no way she was going to be seen at a spot like this not looking her best. As she walked over to the table to see Teddy, the bandage a bit underwhelming. But at least matching up with his story on why he missed their last planned date. The rest of his ensemble impressed her however.
Brooke Bell "You look nice tonight."
Walking over to the table giving him a chance to prove he was something of a gentleman before going for her chair.

Teddy sprung to his feet, stepped in front of the maitre de and pulled Brooke's chair out.
Teddy:You look simply ravishing tonight. This was a five star restaurant before you walked in. It's easily 7 stars now. Thanks again for deciding to see me tonight. Last week was crazy, I think that score is settled now. I've ordered a bottle of Screaming Eagle Sauvignon Blanc ($8657/bottle). Let me know if you like it, if not, we'll get something you do. So are you coming back from a break? What was that all about?

Unable to hide the fact she is impressed by his drink purchase, Brooke looks across at him with a look of approval.
Brooke Bell "That sounds great..And yeah I had some injuries myself. And Tariq is my main focus now. His first run he came in when he was too young and too green. He is much more prepared now. Again I know you two had a rough initial meeting. But he is just protective. I am sure that it won't go any further than that."
Bell watches as her glass is poured full of the expensive wine, than watches as Teddy's is poured as well. Things going well so far.

Teddy doesn't notice, he is too fixated on Brooke, but one of the TV's in the bar is tuned to the local news story about the "Anti Violence Riot" that happened earlier.
Teddy: Sorry to hear about your injuries. Those are hard to avoid in our business. I can understand why Tariq would be protective. But I'm also sure that you can handle yourself quite sufficiently. I know you say that Tariq is you main focus in the ring, does your boy Suplex Trey know that? And on a different subject. When I literally bumped into you a few weeks ago, I asked you out because you are stunningly beautiful. Sitting hear talking to you, it's clear, the brains match the beauty.
Teddy pics up his wine glass and sips without ever losing eye contact with Brooke.

While she may have found his usual Dr. Seuss apparel to be a bit goofy. Brooke had to admit that Teddy was pulling out all the stops on this date. She was impressed.
Brooke Bell "Well I appreciate that. You aren't so bad yourself."
Not exactly having expected for this to be going as well as it is, Brooke takes a sip of her wine enjoying herself.

The meal is over, the dessert plates have been cleared and the second bottle of wine is half empty, of course Teddy sees it as half full.
Teddy:Tonight has been great. The conversation, the company, I could not have asked for anything more. You know, I'm not booked at Uprising. Would you like to share a car to the show?
As Teddy sips his wine, he makes subtle eye contact with the waiter and Teddy gives him a slight nod, upon which the waiter makes his way to the table. Teddy then refocuses all of his attention on Brooke. The waiter approaches and addresses Brooke.
Waiter: Would you like to have your after dessert coffee here, or would you like me to package it so that the two of you can enjoy it elsewhere?

Knowing exactly what is being implied by the waiter. Brooke can't help but let out a small grin at him as she nods.
Brooke Bell "Would love to go to the show with you, my son and maybe even Trey...
Oh we will take the coffee to go."
The night having gone better than she would have imagined. And the most impressive part all on Teddy's dime. Was clear that things were only beginning between the two for better or worse.
