"you look dashing tonight Missie"
"Thanks..you don't look too bad yourself in your blue outfit"
"Hello Sara..I've been looking for you," a voice said and Sara froze.
Mr. Fred wore a blue suit and black tie. his hair combed neatly to the back.

"you're looking beautiful"
"thank you, sir"
"I much prefer Fred"

Sara didn't see max after the presentation they all had.   when she saw him, he was looking so handsome from afar that it took Sara's breath away.
when the party ended, she went together with Fred to a group of people chatting and saying goodnight"
"Your presentations were so wao!" Mrs..... Smith commented shaking hands with Max and tiff.
Sara noticed she wore a very short black dress and heels.
"oh thank you!" tiff replied ."I'm sure our private practice at his home is worth it!"
"Oh!"Mrs. Smith said back"I didn't know..you guys are a thing already!"
"no guys"Max eventually spoke up" it wasn't that way".
" Which way was it?" tiff challenged."we were in your home and we talked and did a lot of practice!"
Sara gasped.
"I don't want to know what kind of practice that was.. please bail me out"miss lavender laughed and walked away.
Sara turned and saw Mr. Fred talking to a Chinese man.
"I think I have to go".she said and walked away.
"Sara.. wait!"
Max called out to her but she walked out of the party.
********,,
Sara wait!"
Max ran and caught up with Sara.
"what is it, Max?" Sara said folding her arms.
"Why did you suddenly believe what tiff said?"
"suddenly believe? how? tiff said it. she said you and her  practiced something"
Max laughed so hard." Sara it wasn't anything.."
"but she was at your house right?"
"yes"
"and you practiced?"
"Sara..listen..she came to my house to practice a presentation nothing more. and it's worth what we did tonight"
"not even a kiss?"
"nope.. although there going to be one"
"what?" Sara gasped and Max drew her close. her heart fluttering.
"and what do you mean by that?"
"there's going to be one..right here..right now.."
"But.. what about our little secret?" Sara said looking around.
And he kissed her to shut up.
