It was almost 6:00 pm. I had just gotten ready for my very first date. Luckily I was able to buy some new clothes. I wore a a little black dress with black pantyhose. I had some black high heel shoes to wear. I did a little make up but, not so much. I wore my hair in a elegant bun. I didn't have any jewelry but, I didn't mind. I heard the door bell ring. I grabbed my bag and walked to the door.

I opened the door to see Jasper in a nice suit. He had a very dark blue sue with a grey vest and black tie. He looked really handsome. He flatten his hair a bit. "You look very lovely this evening ma'am," he said in an accent. It made me smile. "You look handsome yourself," I said. He offered me his arm and I took it.

We went to eat at a nice restaurant. We walked inside the restaurant to the reservation desk. A waiter looked up to see us. "Do you have a reservation," the waiter asked. "Yes. Its Hale," Jasper said. "Ah yes. Right this way," the waiter said. He took two menus and led us to a private room. I didn't expect him to reserve a special private spot for us.

Jasper pulled out a chair for me. I sat at my seat and Jasper sat in his seat. I looked through the menu. The waiter came back inside the room. "May I take your order," he asked us. Jasper gestured me to go first. "I'll have the spaghetti carbonara with a side salad please," I said to him. The waiter wrote the order and turned to Jasper. "How about you sir," he said. "I'll have the steak extra rare," he said. "Anything to drink," he said. "We'll have water," Jasper said. "Alright I'll be right back," when the orders are ready he said and left the room.

Jasper turned his attention to me. I gave him a smile. He made me feel special. "Thank you Jasper for making me feel special," I said. He gave me a smile. "You are special," he told me. I shook my head. "Not really. I thought of myself as a nobody. There is really nothing special about me that is worth existing. There were times that I wanted to be invisible," I told him. He shook his head and moved his seat next to me.

He took my hand. "You are special to me. You have qualities that other people don't have. You are the kindest and selfless person I have ever met. Don't think your self as a nobody anymore darlin'," he told me. I felt my tears forming and falling down my face. I put my face down. I was feeling so much emotions at this point.

I felt a wave of calmness. I felt two fingers on my chin and forced me to look at him. "You are special Beverly," he said. He kissed my temple and moved a piece of hair behind my ear. He was very affectionate. I wasn't used to it, but I liked it.

Soon, our food came to the table and we started to eat. The salad and the carbonara was good. After we ate our food, we asked for the leftovers to be wrapped. Jasper excused himself to the restroom. I looked at the steak. It was really red. {I guess he likes his steak bloody.} He told me that he paid for the check and we could leave. I grabbed my leftover and we walked back to the car. It was a lovely dinner.

We got to my apartment. He turned the engine off and looked at me. "I had a wonderful time with you," he said. I gave him a smile. "I had a wonderful time too," I said to him. He took my hand and held it. "Remember what I said Beverly," he said. I nodded my head. Our heads were close. We leaned towards each other and our lips met. It felt so magical. He was cold, soft, and gentle.

After a while, we pulled apart from each other. I felt that we had an instant connection when we kissed each other. We gave each other a smile. He felt so special to me. He walked out the car and went around to open my door. He gave me his hand and I accepted it. He pulled me out and walked me to my apartment door.

I turned to him. "Thank you, Jasper," I said with a smile. He gave me a smile. "You're welcome darlin'. I will pick you up at 2 on Christmas," he said. I nodded my head. He came over to me and gave me a kiss. I felt the connection between us. He pulled away and I gave him a smile. He walked to his car and drove off.

I walked inside the apartment and leaned against the door. I put my hand over my heart. I felt it pounding rapidly. I realized something.

I loved him alot.
