The only one

Chapter 9: The galla ball

I put on my dress with shaking hands I was very nervous. I'm not good enough for this fancy up town ball. But if chuck wants me there then I guess i will have to go.

My dress is red with little crystal embellishments. I put my hair in a braided up do and apply gold eyeshadow with winged eye liner and dark red lipstick. I feel prepared.

I kiss nugget goodbye getting a little bit of lipstick on him.

I opened the door and I see Dan was behind it.

"What are you doing Dan?" I asked

"I was about to tell you I got the job" he said smiling.

"OMG" I screeched. I threw my arms around his neck and I hugged him. I pulled away from the hug and we made awkward eye contact. He put his big hand on my face and kissed me with big passion. I decided to go along with the kiss and I put my hand on his chiseled jaw bone. No one has ever kissed me like this. I pulled away realizing that chuck was waiting for me downstairs in a limo.

"Sorry" he said wiping his face to get the smudged lipstick off. I licked my finger to get it off his cheek.

"You're not mad?" He asked.

"I don't know what I am Dan" I said walking away.

I walked down the stairs to my limo. In shock of what happened. But I liked it. Chuck was mysterious and sexy. But Dan was straight up he knows what he wants. I don't know anymore.

"You look beautiful" chuck says kissing my cheek.

"Thanks" I say.

"Are you okay" he asks.

"Yes I'm just nervous" we get into the limo.

"Maybe this will help" chuck says and he kisses me for a very long time. Continuing to kiss it started to get hot in the limo. I felt flustered.

"We're not even there yet" I said pulling away.

"So" he says going in for another kiss. He tastes like liquor. I pull away again.

"You're drunk" I say.

"That's the point" he says touching my thigh moving it up and down.

"Chuck I can't do this right now" I say scooting away from him looking out the window.

"Why not" he asks.

"I don't feel good" I say.

"Are you nervous because it will be your first time" he says laughing.

"No I don't want my first time to be in the back of the limo." I say loudly.

It's quiet for a while. I turn form the window and see chuck crying.

"I'm sorry" I said hugging him.

"No I'm sorry" he said kissing my cheek and holding my hand using his thumb to rub my hand.

"It just reminds of Blair and how bad I was to her" he said.

"We all mess up sometimes" I say.

"Not you" he said. "Everyone has done something to hurt you but you haven't done anything" he said.

"That's not true" I said. "I have made many bad decisions".

"Now wipe your tears" I say smiling. "We're almost there" I say giving him a tissue and kissing his forehead.

The driver stops in front of a fancy building and we walk down a red carpet holding hands. Many cameras were flashing. I felt like a movie star.

"Ahh chuck who's this?" A guy probably my age asked.

"I'm Naomi" I say smiling.

"Nate" he says with a stunning smile that made me weak in the knees.

"Chuck" someone called.

" I have to go talk to someone" he said and kissed me on the cheek.

"So you just moved to the city?" Nate asked.

"Yes from LA" I said.

"I love the west coast" he said " I want to move there eventually".

"Yea I miss it a lot the beach and the beautiful sunsets" I say reminiscing how beautiful it was.

" I imagine" he says.

The first song came on " would you like to dance?" Nate asks holding his hand out. I accept and grab his hand. We sway to a classical song. I look around seeing everyone so fancy and classy. I never thought I would be here dancing with a handsome rich guy and a beautiful expensive dress that my other rich friend bought. What a crazy life.
