Pairing: Sean/Isabel
Will also have a little bit of that and a little bit of this, Dreamers and Candies for sure
Rating: MATURE just to be safe, but no smut here…nope
Summary: Takes place during/after Off the Menu. Instead of Sean asking to go out with Liz he shocks everyone by asking to go out with Isabel. Told in Sean’s POV
A/N: This is dedicated to Annie. Hope I make you proud. Thanks to my kick ass beta Tracie, who won an award BTW! WOOT! I was tossing this idea around for while and then Annie posted on her LJ about a challenge, and yes I know I don’t need another story but I do like the idea of challenging myself…and what could be more fun then this? Also dedicated to all the BNA’s out there, you are cherished and never forgotten

SEAN: “(to Liz) Give me one reason why I wouldn’t tell the cops. “
LIZ: “Because I’ll go out with you.”
SEAN: “ Liz I’m flattered…you’re a great girl but I would really like it if I could go out with Isabel”
Liz: “What?”
********************
“What?” Liz asked again
I hear Liz but I couldn’t tear my eyes off Isabel’s face. She looked scared, annoyed and something else… my heart began to beat a little bit faster…was that interest I see deep within her eyes?
“Sean, no offence but on principle, we generally don’t pimp out our sister – but what we can do is make you forget.” Michael says cracking his knuckles together.
“I’m not asking you to pimp her out, I’m asking for a date…you know dinner, a movie. Nothing more, besides she’s an alien right? She could just blow me up or something.” I insist.
Max stares at me, and then over at Liz, “He has a point Michael, however it’s up to Isabel.”
Michael looks at Max with abject horror “You’re just being agreeable so he won’t want to go out with Liz! This is bullshit, just erase his freaking memory already!”
“Michael, we can’t go around erasing people’s memories,” replies Liz
“Well we can…” Tess answers smirking, then glances over at Max “Well, you can’t but I can…”
“Sean I never knew you had a thing for Isabel?” Maria whispers to me.
“I don’t have a thing for Isabel, I just think she would be fun to take out on a date, you know aliens, even the hot ones have to enjoy life. Why is this such a shock?” I answer getting irate and loud.
“It’s not shocking, okay, yes it is! I thought you liked Liz. You know the whole good girl and bad boy thing?” Maria questions.
“So the bad boy can’t go out on a date with someone he thinks would be interesting? It’s not really that big of a damn deal! You asked me what I wanted to keep your secret, well I don’t want anything! I won’t tell…forget I said anything.”
By this time I’m pissed, Ok I know I don’t have a great track record but didn’t I just take a knife for these people? They’ve never even tried to know me. They look at me, and all they see is Sean Deluca, the juvenile delinquent. They’ve never even bothered to find out who I really am.
Isabel has been very quiet thru everything, I watch her out of the corner of my eye as as she stands there, trying to absorb everything.
“I’ll go out with him.” She answers simply before turning and walking out of the UFO Center.
Liz walks up and looks into my eyes for a minute, I really hope I haven’t hurt her feelings, I think she’s great. I just don’t think she has eyes for anyone but Max even if she won’t admit it yet.
"Maybe I'm the last one to be giving you advice, mostly because I jumped into the abyss with both feet, but don't let it consume you. Because it can and will if you give it the chance. Be careful and don’t hurt her, she’s not as tough as she seems.” Liz says to me with concern for both of us
“Liz, it’s just a date, I’m not asking for her hand in marriage,” I answer making sure to roll my eyes
“Ok, but if you need me I’m here.” She states and walks off
You can’t tell me that one date with Isabel is going to make me look at her the way Max looks at Liz, or Hell even the way Michael looks at Maria. Okay, maybe I should admit something right now. I’ve come to visit Aunt Amy and M quite a few times and yes, I’ve seen Isabel several times. I can’t believe I’m saying this but she’s always had this surreal look to her, of course now I know why. Then again she’s also always had a bitchy type attitude that I admire, and I know from experience that people like that are that way for a reason…which in turn makes them interesting, right? Who knows she could hate me.
This might be harder then I thought.
**********************
I will never forget that day, you could hear a pin drop in the Alien themed museum, well except for the cops breaking the door down, and the sound of a breath intake by Liz and Isabel. I also think I heard a silent “WHAT?!?!” coming from Michael and Max. The police took everybody’s statements and told us we were free to go. I wasn’t really sure what I said to them. I kept hearing Isabel’s voice in my head saying she’d go out with me. I can’t believe it. I have one chance to make her see the real me – to see past the juvenile delinquent label I earned and they weren’t willing to forget. God, she’s beautiful, I hope I don’t screw this up. What can I say, the whole alien thing is just a bonus as far as I’m concerned and come on people, if you had the chance to get a date with Isabel Evans, wouldn’t you? Ok I know most of you may not know who I am or you may even think I’m a jackass. Well I’m not going to lie I can be. But overall I’m a pretty decent guy. I’ve been in a little trouble here and there, but I would never hurt anyone. At least not on purpose, I’m actually like most people. I’m just looking for someone to share my life with. I’m not going to give away all the good stuff but I do have a story to tell, how I got a date with the Isabel Evans and what happened after that. It was quite a ride…ready?
TBC... I know it's short
