Miss Time Checker.

Ashton and I walked outside and followed Margie to the parking garage. Margie took her keys out of this beautiful yellow crossbody purse, it matched her hair ribbon perfectly. She unlocked her car, a nice bright yellow Jeep. She opened her trunk and took out a bag with a hanger sticking out of it, I'm assuming it's the dress...emphasis on "The".

"From the receipt, to the authenticity certificate, to the masterpiece itself." the moment she finished that sentence, there it was. The dress. It was stunning, gorgeous, even breathtaking and I couldn't believe I was going to wear it.

Ashton asked her for the authenticity certificate, he began typing things on his phone; I assume research. After 5 minutes of Margie chatting with me about how she got the dress and a bit of background on it Ashton gave me the clear and passed Margie his card and the purchase was complete. Dress secured.

"Hey, uh are you able to take this to the car while I sign and get situated with the rest here?" Ashton asked me handing me the bag with my shoes and the car keys. I looked at him and took the keys and bag and then started walking to the car and looked at Margie looking at him.

I finally made it to the car and decided to check the time, it was almost 11:30. I kind of am hungry right now. I wonder could I ask Ash to buy me something. He just spent like $9,000 or even 10 on me, I couldn't.

"He's the sweetest for this and so much more." I looked down and began smiling at the thought of how kind he actually is. I hear once again distant chatter and flashing, my favorite people in the world..the paparazzi.

"Ashton where are you?" I bent down so they wouldn't see me through the windows when I hear them screaming "Ashton!" and asking him crazy ass questions.

"Man, they're some fun huh?" he chuckled as he got into the car and pulled off. "You want a quick bite before we head back or did you just have to get back miss time checker?" he said with sarcasm whilst focusing on the road.

"Um, I could go for a quick bite, no full course just something really quick." I said scrolling through my phone.

"Nothing like a classic Mcdonald's grub." He chuckled. He left his left hand on the steering wheel and then took my phone from my hand.

"C'mon on Ash." I'm trying to get my phone from his grasp but I'll admit..he was too fast.

"You're too stuck on your phone, take a look around you and off of this." he said while waving my phone in his hand and then putting it in his pocket.

I rolled my eyes, but in a way, he was right at least as of right now. I'm no influencer and I don't live on the media but when I am on there I'll admit it gets tiring. He pulled into a Mcdonald's drive-thru and ordered a Big Mac meal with a Mcflurry and I ordered a Mcflurry and fries. Ashton pulled up to the window to pay and get food and to home, we go.

"So, how do you think the date will go?" Ashton asked.

"Um, I don't know he seemed interesting and funny...I'm hoping it goes well where there will hopefully be more dates." I start smiling looking through the windshield, the thought of there being more dates in the future gives me butterflies.

"Well then..here's to your first date love." he pulled into the driveway.

"Love?" I repeated in a teasing manner.

"You know, it's a form of endearment. I guess you're cool or whatever." he got out of the car with our food. "Don't forget your shoes and dress!" he went off to open the front door while I went to grab my things from the trunk and then head inside.

....................................

"Well that was good; I think I should go get ready now. Thanks for the food." I smiled at Ash and pushed myself back in the chair so I could go and get ready. Throwing my things away, I looked at Ash to see him nod his head in response for a "You're welcome"
