I have been getting anxious all day. I went on dates before, obviously. But I never felt this way about anyone, not even Logan. I don't know what was happening in my classes, I was thinking about the places where he can take me. Hayley even teased me saying that I act like a schoolgirl. Maybe I am. I'm going insane.

I somehow managed to attend all my classes and even finish my assignments. Diana was trying to get the details of yesterday's screaming match the whole time. Finally I shut her up when I pretended to send a voice message to Ethan saying that she likes him.

I look up from my studies and check the time. It's six already, I have an hour to get ready. I don't know where we are going or what I should wear. I guess I want to wear a dress because it's a date. Do I want to look sexy or more casual? I don't want to overdo it otherwise I'll end up doing something that I shouldn't.

I choose a white silk dress with thin straps that make an 'x' on the back. It goes just below my knee but has a cut on the left side, so that when I walk, my thigh peaks out. The neckline is not too low, just better not to bend down in front of him. The thought makes me laugh. I curl my hair slightly and apply light makeup, but more than usual. I put some blush on my cheeks and even apply some contour with bronzer. I also apply silver eyeshadow to match with my dress, a little highlighter and I choose a very light shade of pink as a lipstick. I look more chic than usual.

"Which shoes should I wear?" I ask Diana, turning to look at her. She's reading a book while sitting on her bed. She puts a finger in the air to tell me to wait until she finishes the sentence. As soon as she puts down the book her eyes go wide and she gasps at my looks.

"Oh my god!" She exclaims. "You look amazing Kat!"

"You think?"

"Are you kidding me? You never looked better girl! I mean you always look good, but this... It's not too revealing, yet it's enough to make a guy insane!" She explains and I feel my cheeks blush.

"So which shoes? Should I wear my silver Jimmy Choo's?"

"Hell yes!"

I walk back to my wardrobe and take out my silver heels that have a strap around my ankle and the heel itself is pretty thin. These shoes are actually very comfortable, that's why they're my favorite. I'm going to be at the same height as he is probably or even taller. I don't want to be taller than him. I hope it will be fine. When I look in the mirror,  I can't do anything but smile. I look good, really good. I hope he thinks the same way.

I know that I said I don't want a relationship with him, but how can I hide the feeling inside of me? It's not fair to me or to him. I have to admit that I wasn't expecting him to go through all of this. But he's trying so hard and I have to give him a chance. Although I'm scared as hell that he'll turn out to be just like Logan.

A knock on the door brings me back to reality. I walk to the door and take a deep breath before opening it. When I do, my eyes go wide. He looks so hot in a black button down shirt and black pants with a chain that I really like and of course those black converses. He left a couple of buttons undone on his shirt and he also rolled up the sleeves, so I can see the muscles and veins on his forearm as well as he's tattoos. His dark hair is pushed back as always. I notice that he looks at me with wide eyes.

"Wow." He manages to say after taking in my appearance. "You look incredible." He gasps and I feel so much better now.

I turn to look at Diana, she gives me a smile and a nod, before I take my purse from the dresser and leave the room. I'm so glad that we are on the same height now, it's only four inches but I was getting worried a bit.
