After 15 minutes, i finally reached at Monet's. Fortunately Ian wasn't there. This gave me a bit of time to go to the washroom and fix myself. I was a mess from running all the way from my house to here. I usually get here at exactly 15 minutes by walking but i just wanted to make my life complicated and run all the way over here just so i could have 5 minutes spare time to look good for Ian.
"We are just grabbing coffee as friends nothing else" i whispered at least 5 times while looking at myself in the bathroom mirror.
After that i sat down at a table waiting for Ian. He was really taking his time while i literally ran over here. If i order right now would i be rude? I mean come on he was supposed to be here 20 minutes ago.Finally i saw Ian walking through the door looking around hoping to find me already sitting at a table. I waved signalling him to come. He saw me and came to sit at the table. "Sorry i'm late i had to look after my mother" he said. "Oh what happened?" i asked. "Nothing" he replied trying to avoid the question. I found it extremely weird that he doesn't tell me anything about his mother but on a second thought why should he?
I somehow felt lost while sitting there. Ian was talking to me but i couldn't hear anything. I was too busy admiring him to listen to his words. "Heyy!" i heard Ian say while waving at my face. "Uh-h heyy" i said while giving him a slight smile trying to hide my embarrassed face. "Did you even hear what i said?" he asked while chuckling. "Not really" i said while blushing so hard. "Let me guess you were too busy admiring my gorgeous face?" he said while ginning. "Don't flatter yourself" i replied rolling my eyes . "Well if you keep staring at me looking like you're about to eat my face off then i think i should flatter myself" he replied while grinning.
"Hey there, are you ready to place your order?" i heard a waiter say to us. "Caramel macchiato with steamed hot almond milk and extra milk foam" Ian replied."Okay. And what about you miss?" the waiter asked while looking at me. "A white chocolate mocha please" i replied. "Coming right up" she said giving us a smile and walking away. I found Ian staring at me like he could devour me right now.
"What are you staring at?" I asked him while i enjoyed the attention he was giving me. "Oh nothing just looking at my future girlfriend" he said. Omg he said his "Future girlfriend", he just gave me butterflies from just saying that. "Future girlfriend?" i questioned him. "Yep" he replied.
"Here is your white chocolate mocha and your caramel macchiato" the waiter said while placing our drinks on our table. "Thank you" we both replied at the same time. "Your welcome" the waiter replied with a smile. I immediately started drinking my white chocolate mocha like i never drank it before. I was interrupted with Ian's laugh. "What are you laughing at?" I asked him while glaring at him.
"You just look so cute right now while drinking that coffee" he replied with a smile on his face. "Oh my god stoppp" i replied while smiling. "Let's get out of here babe" he replied giving me a wink. "Babe?" I questioned him while grinning. "Yes" he replied. "But you haven't even drank your coffee yet and we were supposed to talk about why you hate your father and why your name isn't Ian Anderson" i replied while chuckling a bit at the last part. "Well the coffee place isn't the only place where we can talk Valerie. Let's go somewhere else and for the coffee, forget it i don't want it" he replied. "Okay" i replied giving him a slight smile.
He was weird but i liked him. I liked the way he said my name, the way he called me his girlfriend and the way he called me babe. He gave me butterflies from just saying all of those things. I wonder what would happen if he did something else with me rather than just calling me babe. No Valerie what are you thinking, its way too early for me to be thinking all those things, i mean we just met each other and i'm already thinking stuff like that?
"Where are we going?" i asked curiously. "You'll see. Hop in" he said while unlocking a dark emerald Rolls Royce. I immediately hopped in and sat across the driver seat. He then closed the door and hopped in his seat. He was such a gentleman. "okay seriously now where are we going?" i asked Ian as he started driving. He sure was handsome but i just met him. How do i know that i can trust him? Even though i just met him and know nothing about him, i somehow felt safe with him. "Jesus Christ Valerie, will you just shut up and just enjoy the cool breeze? Here i'll put on some music for you so you can relax. What song do you want me to put on?" Ian asked me with a soft smile on his face.
"Doja Cat!" i screamed as soon as he finished his sentence. "You like Doja Cat too?" Ian questioned with a big grin. "Too? Do you like her too?'i replied immediately. "Let's put Nee-"i was still talking when Ian cut me off. "Need to know!" he replied. "Yessss!!!!" i replied. Yep he is definitely my soulmate, i already know it. Hey then proceeds to put on the song and i relaxed. a few moments later i was woken up by Ian's voice. "Valerie...Valerie...Valerie wake up". I soon woke up to see Ian so close to my face. I i could practically smell his breath. His breath was minty. "Hey beautiful" Ian said when he realised i had woken up. "Hey" i replied softly while rubbing my eyes and adjusting my position.
