I won't lose you.

Chapter 3.

Chapter 3:

-Melanie's P.O.V.

I checked the clock. It was 5:30. Alice was coming over to help me get ready to dazzle James. There was a knock on my door. I quickly answered it.

"Hi Alice. Thanks for coming to help me."

"No problem, Melanie. This date may be the most special one in your life. If things work out between you two..." Alice smiled thinking about the possibilitities. 

We headed up to my room and began to work on my hair. I had showered before Alice came, so I was good to go. Alice began to brush out my naturally straight hair. She took a curling iron to it to give it some bounce. Eventually, I had the perfect waves in my hair. Next, we headed to my closet to pick out the perfect outfit. I finally decided on white jeans and a Warehouse Pink Floral Tunic.

"Well? What do you think, Alice?" I asked, posing to show her every angle.

"You look fantastic, hun! He's going to be salivating immediately."

"That good?" I replied looking at myself in the mirror. Smiling, I knew I was ready.

I looked at the clock again. 6:51.

"Well Melanie, I better go before your date gets here. Don't want to stick around when he  

gets here."

I hugged Alice tightly. "Thanks so much for your help! I could not have pulled this-" I said gesturing at myself, "off without your help."

"Anytime. Let me know if maybe Carlos is interested in a girlfriend," Alice responded, giggling.

"Of course I will!" I said, walking Alice to the door. "Bye."

"Bye, call me when you get home and give me the details."

I closed the door and waited. James should be any minute. I heard the doorbell ring. I answered to see James standing there, looking as hot as ever.

"Hey, you look really...amazing," James said, staring.

"Is it too much?" I asked and looked at myself

"It's perfect." James said, smiling.

"Shall we?" asked James, linking arms with me. "This is ok, right?"

Almost breathlessly I replied, "Yeah...of course." I smiled up at him. God...he's so tall. This is coming from someone who is reasonably tall for a girl. I'm five foot nine. He must be six-two.

We walked out to James's car. He opened the door for me and slid in. He opened his door and sat beside me. He turned the keys in the ignition. Slowly, we pulled out of my driveway and onto the street. Our date was just beginning and I could tell it was going to be perfect.
