a sinner's saint

act 3

Laneys pov:

                     i take a deep breath and look at my friends, they either find out this way or they go with me to meet Eric. i turn my body to face my friends "guys, we can shut off the movie for a second?" Tatum got the remote from the coffee table. "yeah, you okay?" i nodded my head and start playing with the butterfly necklace that rests beautifully on my neck. "so, i've been talking to this guy" before i could even finish my sentence i heard the girl squealing and flooding me with questions. Finally Jaiden speaks up to stop the overwhelming inquiry. "guys let her speak before we bombard her with questions." i give Jaiden my quick thanks before i go back to speaking.

"his name is eric, im supposed to meet him at this park in 2 hours. so could ya'll stay here while i go drive to meet him?" lana looked like she was going to explode with enthusiasm but Tatum put her hand over her mouth to shut her up. ' yeah of course" i smile in gratituide and take the remote from Tatum and unpause the movie. Around 30 minutes i realized that i should probably get ready for my date.  i go upstairs and go into my room, i close the door behind me and go to my closet.

after what felt like 10 years i pick out a long seelve mini dress in the color pink. I go over to my dresser and get out a red lacy bra with matching laced panties. i put the matching underear set next to my pink dress. i start to pick up the silk dress up and over my head, throwing it on my bed. i then take off my used panties and put them next to the silk dress. i move my hair out of the way as i clip on the bra from the back, i pick up the mtaching underwear and slip them over my shiny legs and onto my hips. i grab the pink dress from the edge of my bed and carfully put it on my body and untuck my red hair from the back. i take my dirty clothes and go back downstairs and went into the hallway in front of my living room. i open the door at the end of the hallway and flip on the lights and put my clothes in the hamper, that i left in the laudry room.

i go to the bathroom to do my makeup. i decided to put on sparkly pink eyeshadow, i applyed my mascara and a small bit of pink lipsick on. i take out my hair curler and curl my hair to perfection. I go back to my room and take my phone off the charger and checked the time. As I checked MY phone one last time, a text from Eric appeared: "Hey Laney, I'll be at the park in 5 mins! Can't wait to see you :)" Reading those words made My heart flutter, and i grabbed my purse, ready to embark on the sweet date.

i decided that i was going to show up a little early, so i got my car keys and skip down stairs. I run out of the house as i yell a quick bye to my friends. i lock the door behind me and got into my Volvo. I start the car and drive in the direction of the park. I arrive with 10 minutes to spare so i get out of the car, shutting it off and walk inside of the park.

i sit on the park benches while the wind blowing my hair behind me, i get a tap on my shoulder and i turn around. I saw the blonde haired male, i stand up and smile at him. "hey, Eric" Eric laughs a little before hugging me, i hug backand we stand there looking at each other. we sitting down at the bench and start talking about anything that comes to mind, as well as a few compliments thrown in the converstation. As we were talking a guy sits down on the other side of the long bench.

Eric paid no attention to him since his back was turned to the guy, but i did. i looked closer and he looked like the guy from the mall, the black hair, and sharp jawline and those dark eyes. was he following me? No, he probably lives in this area and im just being paranoid. As Eric continuted the speak, i would look behind me every once in a while before flickering my eyes back to his face. I hoped that Eric didnt notice or at least didnt say anything if he did.

"you wanna go get ice cream?" my eyes switched from the guy to Eric. i smiled sweetly at him "yes, of course" Eric stuck his hand out when he stood up. i gently took his hand and i swaer i saw that guy clenching his jaw. maybe im imagining things. i let it roll of my back as i walk away hand-in-hand with Eric. Since we both drived here in different cars, me and Eric agreed to meet at the ice cream parlor.
