Wooow. That was the best kiss ever. And it was only on my cheek. All by ex boyfreinds should be ashamed. I could feel the softness of his lips and how plump and juicy they were. Hmm. Delicous. I wanted his lips on mine. I wish I would have gotton his number. Siighh. How on earth am I supposed to marry a man like Liam, when a man like Rick can make me feel like..like that? Someone with more knowledge than me please tell me. I know my mother would never approve of him. He doesn't have a lot of money...I'm assuming. I mean he could have money...i don't know. I just know my mother wouldn't approve of him. Maybe he'll be my taxi driver again. I should totaly go on a date with Liam again so I can see Rick. Hmm, maybe I should call Liam. I will, I'll call him.
"Annabel?" He sounded surprised....and out of breath.
"Hello, Liam. I just wanted to tell you I had a lovely eavening. And would love to go out with you again...to the Red Lobster. I love that place." I said quickly.
"Um...alright. Tomorrow?"
"Sure thats fine...same time as today."
"Okay," I could hear him smile. Poor boy. Right when I was about to hang up he continued talking. "Annabel, I'm glad you're taking a liking in me...because i see a good potential in us..."
"Me too," I lied
"Have a good night, Annabell."
I sighed sadly, "You too, Liam."

I clutched the phone to my chest and fell back on my bed. My mom burst in my room just as I closed my eyes. She was almost jumping with excitited. She was even clapping. She was snooping. She plopped on my bed and rubbed my hair.
"Oh sweety! I knew you'd start liking him!" She kissed my forehead.
I shrugged. "What can I say? Moms are always right." I smiled.
She kissed my forehead and rushed out of my room and down the stairs. What was I going to do? I barely like this guy as a friend. He's annoying. Well, I might as well get a good nights sleep on it.
"Hello Liam," I smiled politoly. I had dressed up because I planned on seeing Rick again.
"Hello Anna,"
I cringed. "If you don't mind. I like to be called by my full name."
"My apologies."
I nodded. We went to the same place as the last date and were seated in the same spot.
"So, Annabell. I would like for you to come over my house tomorrow...I will cook dinner...I think you'll like to go to the next step in our relationship. As in...become more comfortable with eachother. We've been taking things kind of slow...and well..." He trailed off not wanting to offend me.
"That will be fine, Liam." I smiled.
He seemed shocked then a little cocky. "Good," He smiled.
"So, Annabell. Tell me everything about yourself...your life."
Well, basically im 18, living with my parents and only dating you to accomadate my mother...and promise that I made to her. "What do you want to know?" I smiled taking a sip of whine.
"Well...let's start easy. "When's your birthday, love?"
"You do realize we've been on plenty of dates and not learned a thing about eachother? What have we talked about on out dates...?"
"Nothing really..." He admitted. "I was just trying to get a feel for your personality and not going to lie it wasn't very pleasant at first...you seemed very hostile. But, I gave you time and you seemed to have warmed up to me." He smiled.
My eyebrows shot up, "Well, maybe if you would let me have a feel for your real personality instead of this standoffish kind of rich guy, who thinks he's perfect, then maybe i would have warmed up quicker instead of thinking you were a dick head which infact i do still think you have a little bit of a big head but don't let me continue I wouldn't want to come off as hostile." I said cooly, smiling.
He backed up in his seat, his smile disapearing. "I'm going to pretend you didn't say that..."
"And I'm going to pretend your not a dick head and continue this date all though if you were anyone else i would have never even went on a second date with you." I sat back as well.
He smiled at that for some reason. "What makes you come on yet another date with me? What is it about me that draws you back?"
He was so getting the wrong impression. Maybe because I made a promise. "Well, it's certainly not your personality." I raised one eyebrow and before he could contie the food arrived. "Don't think I didn't notice that, Liam."
His head snapped up from the waitresses ass. "Notice what?"
"Don't play dumb."
"I honestly don't kn--"
I stood up interupting him. "Excuse me. I have to use the ladys room." I left without another glance into the bathrom. What a prick. He's so conceited. If i was going to have to marry this man I might as well change him. If i can. Let him be his self. Not such a stuck up prick. I would have to make him treat me well. Not just some lady to have his kids and spend his money. I walked back and sat down quickly. "Look Liam. If this is going to work we're going to need to make it. Let's get real, we're not compatable so let's try to be okay?"
"I'm listening," He leaned forward.
"I don't know why you've stuck with me this long, but it's impresive so I'm willing to give you a chance. Tomorrow at your house we're going to get to know each other. Really get to know eachother and try realy hard to make this work, Okay?"
He smiled, "Okay,"
The rest of the night went with ease he even made me laugh a little. When the taxi came it wasnt Rick. Unfortunatly.
