@xjojox, I did 4 shots for the first task and only 1 for the second, so I hope that is okay since we are allowed 3 for the meeting and 2 for the gift-giving. I left some open questions for Reuben to answer and the choice of gift; I thought that would make it more interesting.
Task 1 - The Meeting
1. I came out of the limo and there he was standing on the red carpet looking my way. I had talked myself into approaching as if I were meeting a new friend, so I walked up confidently. On reaching him, he spoke in a deep, alluring voice…
“Hello, I’m Reuben Church the third and you are?”
“Hello, Reuben Church the third, I’m Kim Hastings the first.” We both laughed and then he kissed my hand.
“Tell me about yourself, Kim.”
“Well, I love spending time in my garden and yours is incredibly beautiful. Could we take a walk around, I’d love to see more?

2. “Of course, Madam," he said smiling. "After you.” He placed his hand on the small of my back and gestured which way to go and then led me onto the garden path.
“So, what about you, Reuben? Tell me a little about yourself. Why do you need to even be on this show? You could get a date anywhere?”

3. As we walked and talked he grasped my hand and his touch sent shivers coursing down my spine. I'm surprised my face didn't turn beetroot red. Reuben, however, was quite casual about it, and we kept walking. I broke the silence with another question.
"What sort of things do you enjoy for leisure or fun?"

5. At the end of the garden, he stopped and put his arm around my shoulder and I hoped he didn’t feel me shiver again. After that, we admired the garden together.
“Your garden is really beautiful, Reuben, it must take a lot of maintaining."
"Yes, but I have well-paid gardeners and they do a great job. So, Kim Hastings, tell me more about you?”
“Do you dance, Reuben? I love to dance, and I also play mixed basketball. I think I just like being active and spending time outdoors I have to admit, though, I’m quite competitive. What sort of sport do you like to watch?”

Task 2 - The Gift
5. “Let’s sit here for a minute.” Reuben guided me to a garden bench in the middle of his beautiful garden.
“Actually, I have a gift for you, but you have to make a choice,” I said.
“Oh, really? Sounds intriguing.”
“As I said, I am quite competitive, so I have two gifts for you that you need to choose from. One is a gift voucher for membership to my gym, the other is…well this is my favourite basketball and if you choose it, I have one condition; that you allow me to challenge you to a shoot-out.” I giggled.
“Is that so?”
“I noticed you have a basketball net over the back there. So, what is your choice, Mr Church the Third?” I smirked.

After our initial meeting, the producer came up and asked me a couple of questions.
"So what did you talk about after that?"
“We talked about how I love to dance, what the plans for his business were and then he broke out into a dance routine. It surprised the heck out of me.” I laughed. “Obviously along with his love of music he can dance as well.”
"Was your first meeting awkward, romantic or did you like eachother right away?"
"I can't speak for Reuben, but I felt comfortable when we were together. He is a lot of fun and has a great sense of humour.” I looked ahead into open space and smiled. “You see, I don’t get out much with my sports’ commitments, but it made me think I need to socialise a bit more. It's why my mum organised for me to be on this show, I think. I treated him as a friend at our first meeting and that helped stay my nerves. After all, I think it is important to be friends before anything else, but I'm looking forward to our next meeting.”
