Our Eternal Love

THE FRESHER'S

CALVIN'S POV

The last few days have been dreadful. I had almost lost Sophia because of my stupidity. It was quite an eye opener for me as I realised that I can't live without her. Just the thought of losing her made my chest constrict. But it's all water under the bridge now. We talked about everything that happened this week and how we'll not let it happen again. We have to trust each other with everything and not let jealousy get the better of us. We decided to talk about everything without worrying about anything. We'll also make sure that we see each other atleast once everyday may it be in the morning before work or after work. She also talked about the night she got mugged and I felt uneasy just listening to her. How could I let that happen? I also convinced Sophia that if in case I can't come to pick her up after work, Liam will. I told her that I pay him for his services and she shouldn't hesitate to use them. She was quite reluctant about it at first but agreed eventually.

She also told me about her upcoming Fresher's party that she was quite excited to attend. She asked me to be her date and I was happy to. We laid under the stars with her in my arms. I finally felt complete.

I had planned everything with the help of Michele. I was miserable and was drinking quite a lot. I had lost all hope of getting her back but Michele pushed me back on my feet and didn't let me give up. And finally I got her back. I'm never losing her again.

I had also planned a candle night dinner in the hotel itself but Sophia liked this view so we had it arranged in the room itself. Dinner under the stars. It turned out better than I would have imagined. We had Caprese salad, Chicken Parmesan meatballs and Risotto with Pinot Noir. For dessert we had a slice of cheesecake which we shared. We were so impressed that I personally thanked the head chef for the delicacies.

Tomorrow we have to go back to our normal routines so we called it a night and I drove her back to the apartment. We were kissing goodbye but it turned more into a makeout session. She invited me to spend the night with her and even though as appealing as it sounded I had to reject her offer. There was nothing more I wanted than to spend the night making love to her but I didn't wanna give the impression that I was in this relationship only for sex. I wanted to give her time and show her that I've complete trust on her. I didn't wanna drive her away again. So I left after dropping her.

Time flew by fast this week. We saw each other every day even if it was for an hour. We worked hard and also made time for us. Even though we saw each other everyday, it wasn't enough for me. I wanted to see her, hold her and kiss her every moment of the day.

Sophia was doing great both at the University and also at work. The Fresher's party was this weekend and I wanted to gift her a dress to wear on the occasion. 

I made some calls and arranged an exquisite cocktail dress for Soph from one of the top fashion designers in NY. It was a one-shoulder floor length rose gold dress with little embellishments on it. It was fitted at the waist and then flowed freely down to the toes. Sophia would add grace to this dress.

I bought a 3 piece black suit for myself. I also bought a simple diamond pendant that went perfectly with the dress and decided to give it personally. I sent the dress to her apartment with the help of Liam. I hope she likes it.

SOPHIA'S POV

That night went great and the following week was awesome. I loved every moment of it. Calvin was considerate and affectionate and didn't make me regret my decision. We needed a second chance at this and both of us were at faults. I shouldn't have lied and hid things from him and he should've trusted me. But it was all in the past now. We've moved past it and life's been great since then. We try to fit each other in our busy schedules and spend quality time with each other.

I have the Fresher's party this weekend and after that we're spending the whole weekend together. Calvin bought me a gorgeous dress for it and I'm sure it must've cost fortunes. I swear to God he spoils me a lot. It looked like the kind of dress that a princess or queen would have in her closet. I would've returned it if I could find a way to stop gushing over it. Emma was also a bit jealous on seeing it. It was that good.

I had taken a half day leave from work to get ready for the partay. My happiness knew no bounds at this point. I was in my apartment getting ready with immense help from Emma. She did everything from hair to makeup while I just sat in front of the mirror. She's a Godsend.

Calvin was supposed to pick me up at 7 so he would be here any moment now. I felt the butterflies in my stomach already. He picked out this beautiful dress for me and I wanted to live up to his expectations. The makeup was minimal because that's what I liked and Emma did a wonderful job on my hair. She gave me a messy bun and left out a few locks that fell on my face. I was eagerly waiting for Calvin and to see his reaction. We heard the intercom buzz while I was wearing my heels. Emma buzzed Calvin into the building and I grew more nervous/excited.
