Lost in Dallas [COMPLETED]

ADRIANNA

I found myself throwing away all the clothes in my closet. I couldn't find anything to wear. Anything at all. And i was pissed off. Chris will be picking me up in two hours and i don't have anything to wear.
From dresses to skirts, i couldn't find anything appropriate to wear in our date. I didn't wanted to look like i over dressed or like i didn't. I wanted to look casual, but chic, but simple, but i wanted to take his breath out. I shake my head. I'm overreacting but it was probably because i really want to impress this guy. I guess something inside me wants to forget about everything and start over letting everything behind.
I sat on my bed holding my knees on my chest closing my eyes. I remembered the day he took me to his safe place. I remember how he opened up with me. The things he told me about him and why he used to act like he acted. I remembered his kisses on my neck, my hands in his hair, his hands on my waist making his way to my chest. I feel like missing him but i quickly shake those thoughts out of my mind. Sometimes i think about Cameron and everything that happened. Its been a few days but it feels like forever.
I grabbed my phone and looked for his name on Instagram. I have never stalked him though, but today i felt like knowing how he was doing. He hasn't posted pictures in a week which was weird because i realized he's constantly active on his social networks. Shaking my head, i lock my phone and go back to my dressing issue.

After at least 45 minutes trying to find something to wear i decided to use a midi black skirt with a red glittery shirt and black mid high heels. I curled my hair, put some make up on and minutes later i was ready. 
It was 7:55 when the door bell rang. ''Mom! Can you get that?'', i asked her. ''Yeah, sure honey'', she replied. Excited, i grabbed my purse and took another look at myself at the mirror. For the first day in days. Or weeks, i must say, i feel confident. I feel pretty. I smiled at my thought and decided to go downstairs.

As i was walking towards the living room my mother gasped. ''Oh, Adrianna! You look so beautiful!'', she snapped. I smiled and said ''thanks Mom''. 
When Chris heard that he quickly stood up and waited for me to go downstairs.

When he saw me, his reaction filled me with confidence. His eyes widened and he just said ''whoa''. I laughed at his silliness. ''You look so... Whoa, Adrianna... You look stunning'', he said and i giggled. ''Thank you Chris, you don't look so bad yourself''. He laughed a little. He looked so handsome. To not say smoking hot. He was wearing a suit with the jacket open. I'm so glad i decided to dress classy because he's so formal. ''Shall we go?'', i asked. He nodded. I waved my mom good bye and walked to Chris car. He rushed to open the door for me. It was a beautiful gesture that i obviously liked. It was clear he was nervous. I could feel it.

As he reached his seat and started the car, i asked him where we going. He smiled and said it was a surprise. I noticed Chris smiles a lot. It's not a bad thing though. His smile is beautiful. His teeth are perfectly aligned and perfectly whitened. 

Something inside me really enjoyed watching him smile. He seems to be such a positive, well-centered person and i need someone like that in my life right now. 

While we were on the road i noticed Chris was tightening his hands around the steering wheel. ''Hey'', i said while squeezing his shoulder softly, ''don't be nervous. It's okay''. He nodded. ''I'm sorry is just that i'm really excited, i don't know why, i don't want mess this up'', he honestly said. I let his right hand free from the steering wheel so i grabbed it and squeezed it. ''It's okay, we will have a nice evening, you'll see''. He smiled again and so i did.

We arrived to a beautiful restaurant in the beach. I've always thought dinner at the beach was romantic. The place was really pretty. I looked around and the walls were made of wood with lighting across them. They were playing soft classic music which made the restaurant way more romantic. 

We walked inside and a young lady stopped us, asking if we had reservations. ''Yes'', Chris answered, ''look for Chris Gonzalez''. The lady nodded and typed on her tablet. After a few seconds she smiled at us and said ''C'mm on in, let me show where your table is''. 

As we sat on our chairs, Chris looked at me and asked:
''Do you like the place?''

I nodded. ''It's beautiful. Thanks for bringing me here''.
''You don't have to thank me. It's a pleasure''.

We shared a few smiles and before i could say anything, the waitress assigned to our table came to ask us if we wanted anything to drink.
We both ordered a coke which came seconds later after we ordered.

''So'', Chris started, ''do you like college so far?''

''Yeah, actually i do. How about you?''

''Yeah, me too'', and smiled.
I didn't wanted to spend the whole night in silence so i decided to throw a random topic.
''What type of movies do you like?'', i asked him.
''Action movies, how about you?''

''Romance are my favorites''. 
He smiled and said ''we should see one of your favorites someday''.

I felt my cheeks heating up and an smile filled my face. ''I'd love that''.

The night went wonderful. We ordered pasta. We talked about of favorite movies, about politics, sports, we made a few jokes, we talked about our families and even about hair product. In fact, we talked about a lot of stuff and i was glad because i didn't wanted to make our first date awkward. 

Actually, Chris is very outgoing and he's easy to be around with. It's like you don't have to try to hard to impress him or you don't need to act like someone else. He will just accept you as you are and he will enjoy your company as well.

It was almost 12am when Chris drove me home. When he parked his car front my house, my head got filled with questions. ''Did i did alright? Did he enjoyed our date? Will he ask me out again? Will he kiss me good night?''. My hands started to get sweaty and my pulse increased even though i tried to remain relax. 
We reached to my front door so i turned to him and said:
''Thanks for this beautiful evening Chris. I spent a wonderful time.''
He smiled widely. ''I did too. I'm so glad you had good night, too''.
I smiled and noticed how he came closer.
This is it.
He's going to kiss me.

I looked at him straight in the eyes. He looked into my eyes. Then my mouth. Then my eyes again.
He leaned in, letting an small space between each other waiting for me to fill it. So i did. I leaned in too. He planted an small, soft kiss in my lips for at least 13 seconds. His lips are full and soft, just how i like it. 

He grabbed my hand and said ''can i take you out again?''. I nodded and added: ''I'd like that.''

He kissed my cheek and said ''good night gorgeous'' as he smiled and walked towards his car.

Once i'm in my bedroom i throw myself in my bed and smile with joy and happiness.
And for the first time in days i felt genuinely happy. I felt like things will finally get better.

Chris is a good guy. He's good for me. I won't let that one go away. I won't make the same mistakes.

This was my moment and i forbid myself from wasting it.
