Synopsis

BECKHAM: 
I have one rule – I don’t do love, romance, or relationships. 
That is, until I find myself softening… for her. 
RINOA: 
I have one rule – I promised myself I would never be in a relationship again. 
I’ve been there/done that. 
There is no way I’m falling for the darkly menacing, alpha male, hot as sin… Beckham Stone. 
---- 
RINOA: 
After I get home from seeing the girls, my phone pings. It’s a text from Beck. 
Beck: Send me your address 
Beck: I’ll pick you up at 7p tomorrow 
Me: Where are you taking me? 
Beck: Where do you want to go? 
Me: Where do you normally take your DATES? 
Beck: I don’t DATE 
Me: Ok where would be your usual pre-hook-up dinner? 
Beck: I have a few places in mind 
Me: Great. I don’t want to be anywhere near any of those places 
I see dots appear, but disappear. Then appear again, then disappear. It takes a few minutes, but my phone eventually dings. 
Beck: Change of plans 
Beck: Not doing ‘dinner’ 
Beck: We’re going on a date 
Beck: This is nonnegotiable 
Me: ? 
Me: On one condition…. Are you finally going to tell me why you call me Opal? 
Beck: Re-read my previous text. This is nonnegotiable 
Me: Re-read MY previous text. I want to know why you call me Opal 
Silence 
Beck: Fine. 7p tomorrow
