"Come in"

"Is that something wrong sir"

"Oh no Ms. Adelson, do you remember nicholas?" I nodded

"I want you to be his plus one for the ball next week" what?!

"But sir" before I can say something his phone start ringing and I know that like it or not I don't really have a choice.

If you're wondering did I tell emma or not about Nicholas visit 3 months ago, yes.

But I regret it because I told her when we were ate our dinner and she sit across me, she is spurt her food when i half way telling her the stories and it was reach my food, totally gross and i regret everysecond of it. I know I have to tell her about the plus one, I start collect my things and head home. Im telling emma as soon as she open the door -because i dont want her to spurt something again-,she look numb for a second then she drop her bag, start screaming and spinning me around until I feel dizzy.

"Emma stop"

"Oh my freaking god, I am so gonna choose the dress for you" I just mutter whatever to her because I need to drink something and she need to take shower. Emma say that I should wear something that can amaze everyone because my date is Nicholas salvai and the ball is one of the most important event in town, and I think im going to be sick before it happen.

The week pass by and all I know that the ball is tonight, Mr. Olsen said that Nicholas will pick me up at eight and he allow me to home earlier. I have four hours to prepare myself, well I think its more than enough. I check my phone and there is no missed call or message from anyone including james, I change my number 2 months ago because he didn't stop calling me and because of that gina told me to change my number, I remember her message telling me to stop trying to seduce her husband and change my number or die. So I did.

I start preparing myself at 6, I take a shower, do my make up and hair. I didn't really a fans of make up so I just wear a simple one but put on red lipstick so it wasnt too simple, I remember emma telling me that every woman needs a man that will ruin their lipstick and not their mascara, I bet she read it from tumblr. I style my hair into classic side swept, because its simple and im too lazy to style it any other way. I love the dress emma choose for me, I need to thank her later. I make way downstair to pour some wine because its only seven thirty and I need to kill the time before I chicken out, but before I take a sip someone is knocking the door, so I walk towards my door to see who is it. When I open it, i see Nicholas is standing there with a bouquet of pink and red rose

"Hello"

"Hi" I feel my cheek is getting warm, I don't even know why im blushing but hearing his voice really make my heart melt. His voice is like a dark chocolate melted and I love chocolate that's why

"Here, ready to go?"

"Thank you for the flowers, emm wait here I need to grab my clutch" I go back to my kitchens to grab my clutch and put the flowers on vase before heading out with him. I see him already open the door for me, I smile before I get in and when he closed the door he walk to the other side and get in.

"You look stunning"

"Thank you"

"Wear this" he handed me a mask

"Why? Is it a masquerade ball? I don't remember Mr. Olsen told me this"

"Just wear it Theresa, you will know soon" I take the mask from his hand and wear it. Well maybe he is ashamed that his plus one is me.
