~*~*~*~ New Year's Eve ~*~*~*~

Today is finally the day.

After 3 long months, and this last week stretching on forever, it's finally New Year's Eve.

And you're feeling every emotion under the sun.

Considering you love sleeping, you got such a small amount last night because of your nerves for today. You're sure there was excitement in your system as well that made it difficult to stay asleep, but all you know for certain was that every time you woke up your heart was racing.

You think you probably got about 6 hours in total, but you were waking up every hour or so and when you saw that it was 8am you just decided to get up because there was no way you were getting back to sleep. And you willed the hours of the day to disappear, but time seemed to be moving agonisingly slowly.

Getting ready early is never really a thing you do but today after you showered, you started getting ready at 12:30 for your date which is at 4:30. It's probably one of the stupidest things you could have done because you had already planned your outfit with Amelia the day before and it doesn't take you a long time to do your hair or make up.

You were ready by 2 o'clock, but you held off from putting your outfit on because you didn't want to crumple it as you sat lounging around waiting for the time to tick away. And today time seemed to be moving even slower than it had done the past week.

How you wish you had both decided to go out even earlier so you weren't wishing your day away.

The only thing that made the time pass a little quicker was the text you received from Matty at about 2:45 saying, If you stand me up I'm coming to your flat and making you pay for it xx

That eliminated some of your nerves because in the back of your mind there was always that seed of doubt that this date might never happen and you'd get stood up. You'd been burnt before a few years ago and the worry never really left on each actual date you'd been on since.

To keep things lighthearted, you remind him of your words from a few months earlier, Like I said I'm a professional, I'd never stand someone up x

Think of my reputation, I wouldn't damage it. You know far too many people... You also quickly add, and just to tease him that little bit more before you see him again, you send, How would I ever get my date with George?? xxx

You can picture the way he probably bites his tongue and shakes his head when he reads that last one come through on his phone. And you're certain it probably happened like that because his response is, You're a little bitch xx

Thank you, I know x You reply, giggling the entire time.

God, you really can't wait to be in his presence again. It's bad just how much you're craving it at this point.

You decide to tease him just once more before your date because you know you're just putty in his hand when you're in person, so you reply, Although, depends on what the payment is because sounds interesting xx

But even his response now makes your cheeks heat up and you want to squeal into your hands, Don't tease or we won't make it to the date x

Grinning like a Cheshire Cat, you text him back saying, Exactly why you're not picking me up and I'm meeting you there xx
