“Well first of all the gentleman offered to pick me up which I was so bowled over by I was like, ‘Sure.’ That’s a gentlemanly thing to do, and then we were going to go all the way downtown to this long dinner. Everyone says when you go on a date with someone don’t do the dinner, do a drink. But I don’t know better,” Drew said.

Austin replied, “I like the dinner. Then you know if it doesn’t work. You get to actually talk, and yeah you’re gonna have a great time.”

Drew asked what to do if she gets weird vibes. Callum said to “run.” Austin said, “Yeah you go to the bathroom and you call a friend and you have them give you a surprise call.”

Austin volunteered to be the one Drew can text if she needs!
