It's 6:03pm and I'm currently waiting for Shohei to arrive. I look at myself in the mirror to make sure that everything looks good. Shohei never told me what we were doing. He just said to dress a little nicer than usual and don't eat dinner. So I'm assuming he's taking me out to eat. He wanted it to be a surprise but he didn't leave much to the imagination.

I just put on a cute little dress with some white heels. I kept my makeup natural and did loose curls. He didn't specify how nice I should dress so I kept it simple.

I check my phone and see that he should be here soon. I start to feel nervous. I don't know why  I care so much. It's ridiculous how nervous I am right now. I'm pacing back and forth and my hands are sweating.

Get a grip!

*knock*
*knock*

Fuck!

I rush to the door and look through the peephole. It's him. He's here. I take a couple deep breaths and then I open the door. We both look at each other and smile.

Shohei is wearing a blue button up shirt with black pants and black shoes. He looks good. He's not wearing anything special but for some reason he looks so good. Maybe everything this man does or wears is attractive.

"You look amazing," he says.

I blush and say, "Thank you. So do you ."

"Are you ready to go? Or..."

"No, I'm ready! We can head out now."

The walk to his car was a little quiet but it wasn't awkward. I wasn't too worried about that because it wasn't even a long walk. It was the car ride there I was a little worried about. We talk fine but I just don't see him the same anymore and I'm sure he doesn't see me the same either.

The start of the drive was quiet. We didn't talk much and most of the time it was just music playing in the background. I take this time to really look at Shohei.

He really is beautiful.

He doesn't necessarily have the prettiest eyes or the best hair, but something about him. Something about him is just so majestic looking.  I think he realized I was staring because I noticed a smirk appear on his face. Well shit.
