I wake up, opening my eyes to see Felix starring at me and my cheeks are in all shades of red.
I close my eyes because I don't know what to do but then after taking deep breaths I open my eyes and my eyes meet his.
We both let out a smile.
He has one of his arms around mine and I have one of my legs over him.
Weird positions but okay.
" Your mum invited me for dinner " he speaks hoarsely
" Yeah? " I ask him.
He nods.
" We'll leave together then?" I continue to ask.
" Alright," he says.
I go to my home after staying with him for a little longer.
I go into my closet, skimming through the dresses that I can wear.
I look in and decided to wear the emerald green long gown which had a knee-length cut.
I pick the dress up and place it on the hanger.
I then go to pair the accessories, I hopefully found everything since it was intact.
I was done with my chores and I look at the time, decided to start getting ready so that I would make it on time.
I have a long refreshing shower doing my business.
I walk out picking the dress for the night wearing it.
It hugged my body perfectly showing my curves off.
I look at my reflection stunned.
I pick the diamond necklace with emerald stones making it perfect for the night.
I wear that around my neck and then the earrings.
I sit down to do my makeup, I was doing it till I was interrupted by his call.
I look at the caller ID which was still Dickhead and I laugh at it.
"Hello," I say as I pick the call continuing to laugh
" Woah what's funny?" He asks me.
" Nothing. You called ?" I respond more like asked.
"Can you come over once you are done with decking up?" He asks me.
"Alright I will be there " I respond
" Which colour are you wearing?" he asks me catching me off guard.
" Umm Green?" that came out like a question.
" Okay see you here," he says and I hum in response.
I was done with my makeup, hair. And once I was satisfied with how it turned out I make my way to his home.
I ring the bell waiting for him to open the door.
I look down to check myself just then he opened the door.
" Damn," he says taking a step back.
" You look... You look gorgeous" he says
I look at him with an emerald tie in his hand.
His hair is perfectly done and his stubble neatly done.
I come out of my trance of checking him out and say " You look amazing ".
He smiles mouthing " Thank you".
He opens the door wide and I walk in behind him.
He hands me the tie and I grab it letting a small laugh shake my head.
I stretch the tie and am so close to him that our breaths are fanning each other.
I put the tie around his neck.
He was intently staring at me as I was tying the tie.
I am trying to play it cool pretend as if his stare does not affect me when it was.
My knees, I am not feeling them.
I feel his gaze on me.
I tie the tie perfectly " Perfect " I say.
" Thank you," he says and I give a curt nod.
He looks at the clock and so do I " We'll leave now?" he asks me to which I agree.
We walk out, he locks his home.
He held my hand and also helped me with my dress.
We were at the parking lot.
He opened the car door and unlike the other day, I did not run over and open the door for him.
Instead, I hopped in.
Once I was seated, he closed the door walking towards the driver's side.
He hopped in.
And the drive began we both were stealing glances of each other and did not look out even though we caught each other looking.
I don't know why.
It didn't feel awkward looking at the other person.
For the record
He was so damn good looking like when has he ever not looked good in the first place.
And the formal fit looks so good on him.
It's going to be one hell of a night with Felix by my side looking this beautiful.
