Chapter 6 - Date Night

On Saturday

Demi’s Pov

Tonight is my first date with Joe, I am so excited. I looked at my phone, it is now 3pm and Joe is picking me up at 6pm. I better start getting ready. I go into the bathroom and have a shower then I come out and open my closet deciding what to wear. After a while, I chose a black strapless knee length dress. I dried my hair and put on the dress then did my make-up. Then I looked at my phone again, it was half past 5. I have half an hour and I am already ready. I walk into the living room and sit down next to my mom.

“Where are you going all dress up?”

“On a date with Joe”

At this she smiled and said “Well, I hope you have a good time. What time is he picking you up?”

“6”

“Are you going anywhere nice?”

“I dunno, I told him to surprise me.”

“Oh, I hope you have a nice time.”

“Thanks Mom”

We sat there and watched TV together until the doorbell rang. I walked and opened it, it was Joe.

“Hey Babe”

“Hey Joe”

“Are you ready to go?”

“Yeah”

I shouted to mom “I’m going out mom.”

“Okay Dems. Be back by 10”

I closed the door and then followed Joe out to his car.

“Where are we going?”

“Ahh, you will just have to wait and see.”

Joe’s Pov

I got ready for my date with Demi and then got my car out of the garage and parked it in her driveway. Then I knocked on the door. Before she left she shouted “I’m going out mom” and her mom shouted back “Okay Dems. Be back by 10”

I walked her to my car and opened her door for her, let her get in and then closed it before walking round to my side and getting in. She asked where we were going. I wasn’t going to tell her after she asked me to surprise her, so I told her to wait and see. 

I turned on the engine and started driving. When I pulled up outside Olive Garden, she said. “Joe, Olive Garden is like my favourite restaurant!” I was glad; I had made the right choice.

We went in and we were shown to our table, we ordered our food and then just sat there. Demi had her hands on the table, I reached over and intertwined our fingers, and she looked up at me and smiled.

10 minutes later our food arrived. “This looks great!” I said “Yeah it sure does” Demi agreed.

We both sat there and ate our food; the waitress then came over and took our plates. We paid for the meal then got up and went to get into my car.

I started driving back home, I knew Demi had to be back for 10 and I didn’t want to break her mom’s trust only after a day. Demi took out her phone, “What time is it babe?” I asked “9:30” she replied.

When we got to our road I pulled up into Demi’s drive, I got out and opened the car door for her, let her get out, then shut the door and locked the car. I walked her to her front door. She turned around and looked at me. We stared into each other’s eyes. I started to lean in, I wasn’t sure whether she wanted to kiss, but she started to lean in to. We kissed passionately, which turned me on, I felt shivers down my spine, but I pulled away. We are not ready for that yet.

I love Demi, but I wouldn’t want to hurt her, I don’t think I could live with the memory if I did. She is so precious to me; I don’t know what I would do without her.

Demi’s Pov

Joe is amazing, how did he know that my favourite restaurant is Olive Garden? He must have just guessed. Tonight was special, when we had ordered our food, he held my hands and intertwined our fingers, and it made me feel special.

When we got home he walked me to my front door and we kissed, it was magical, just like our first kiss, but deeper. Just as the kiss was going to turn into a make-out session he pulled away. We have only known each other for a little while and I don’t think either of us wants to rush into things; especially outside my house, in full view of the neighbours.

He then pulled me into a tight hug, his strong arms made me feel secure. I love him, he makes me feel special, and he is different, not like my past relationships.

They didn’t end well, I needed to away from all of that, and so mom and I moved states, I wasn’t sure at first, but now that I have met Joe, it just seems right.

He released me from the hug and we both said goodbye, and I said “I’ll see you on Monday” “Yeah, see you on Monday” He replied. He then turned around and got into his car, backed out of my driveway and moved his car across the street to his house.

I turned around, opened my door and went inside. I shouted “Mom, I’m home!” “Did you have a good time sweetie?” She shouted back. “Yeah, sure did.” I replied.

I went up to me bedroom and took off my dress and got into my PJs before lying on my bed. I suddenly got really tired, so I feel asleep.
