Demetria's POV

Oh. my. god.
she was gorgeous. and smart. and had a smoking body.
wait no. stop thinking like that.
ugh. I can't get her off my mind. I'm not supposed to feel like this. but I do. I can't help it. after the interview I could not stop smiling. I tried to act cool and calm but she made my heart race and I felt butterflies every time she looked at me. fuck. stop thinking like this.
ugh.
she was just so interesting. I really tried to act cool but it wouldn't work. I've never had these feelings before. I've always been the one that never committed to anything. but she makes me want to change that. I've only known her for one day and I've already done something ive never done with anyone else. I invited her to dinner tomorrow.
I have no idea where we're going.
I have no idea what to wear.
this is so confusing. I've never done anything like this before. these are the strongest feelings I've ever had for anyone. at that interview I could barely keep my eyes off of her. she was gorgeous. all I wanted to do was ask her things about herself and get to know her better. but I had to be professional. just stick with what I was supposed to say. just be calm. like it was just another interview.
but it wasn't.
I don't want to admit it, but I like her.
I can never express my feelings out loud. or to myself. maybe because I've never had any. I don't know.
but she was so interesting.
i can't wait until tomorrow. but I'm scared.
yes. you heard it right.
Demetria lovato is scared.
I can't believe it either. I've never cared this much. but I can't admit it out loud. that would be pretty much the opposite of who I am. I don't get in relationships. just one night stands. but it's like I wanted to change that. change it for her. no. stop.
you can't feel this. you're fucked up. you're just gonna hurt her.
but she is just so intriguing.
I need to stop thinking about this and focus on where I'm taking her. this has to be perfect.
wait.
I've never tried this hard.
ugh. I'm so confused.
I grab my things and start walking to the elevator. I get to the lobby and walk to my car. the whole way back to my house I couldn't stop thinking.
I figured it out.
I'm going to take her to that fancy restaurant around the corner. it has amazing food and is classy perfect. now I just need to find an outfit.
I may not look like I care how I look, but I'm still a girl. I do care. especially since I'm going out with her. the girl of my dreams.
wait. did I just think that?
shit. it's been a day. seriously.
I need to chill.
I find a dress. it's black. it's tight. it's hot. so I'm gonna wear it tomorrow night.
I start getting ready for bed.
I brush my teeth and put on pajamas. as soon as I lay down, my phone beeps.
I don't know this number.

hey!

who is this? and how did you get my number?

um it's shay...

oh I'm so sorry shay I forgot I gave it to you.

it's okay Demi. i mean Demetria.

holy fuck. when she called me that my heart started to beat 2,000 times faster.

oh it's okay. you can call me Demi. I like that.

oh well I'm glad :)

What is you're address so I know where to pick you up for dinner?

she tells me her address and then we exchange "goodnight"s. I lay my head on my pillow. I can't sleep. she's on my mind. she has been since the meeting. I can't believe how nervous I am for tomorrow night. I need rest. I have to go in for work really early. but I still can't sleep. a few hours have passed since she texted me. but it feels like forever. I can't wait.
I decide to put on some classical music. because it helps me get to sleep. but that fails. I get up and start walking downstairs. the sun is up. what the fuck?!?! has it seriously been that long? I lost track of time thinking about her. oh my god. well I need to get ready for work I guess. I make breakfast, get dressed, and pull my hair into a neat bun. I grab my keys and my phone. only to discover I have a voicemail. from shay.
I open it and start to listen.

Um hi Demi. it's Shay. um good morning! I hope you slept well. I didn't really get much sleep. I was up late thinking about you. wait. shit. I just said that out loud. sorry. but um anyways. I was wondering what I needed to wear for dinner tonight. I didn't know where we were going so I had to ask. just let me know. you'll probably look amazing no matter what. crap. I just said that out loud. way to go Shay. um sorry. I'm blabbing but text me. um. bye.

then she hung up. her voice was angelic. she sounded so nervous. it was adorable. wow. I can't believe she made me think like this. or feel like this.
I sent her a text.

wear something classy. I'll pick you up at 8:00.

I got a text back immediately.

okay. thanks. have a great day.

you too.

i can not wait until tonight.
I started walking out the door and got in my car. I started the drive to my office. this is gonna be a long day.
