I put on a final coat of lipstick and admired my reflection in my mirror. I wore an off the shoulder black top with some black skinny jeans and black stilettos. For make up I did some foundation, eyeliner with wings, some nude eye shadow and some pale pink lipstick. It all seemed to go together well and for the first time in a while, I felt happy with my appearance. I smiled.

The time was just before six, Calum was due at six to pick me up. We were going to this fancy Italian place a few blocks away, on the 'good side' of town. I told him I'd be happy with Nando's or even just a pizza at home.

"No. I'm going all out." He had told me with a reassuring smile.

Calum stood at the door in a black suit and tie with flowers in his hand. My jaw dropped, quite literally. He looked amazing. It was different from his ripped jeans and band t-shirt look, which I liked very much but he looked different tonight. And very very hot.

"You'll catch flies." He told me, making my blush take over my whole body. Oh what a night this would be.
