It was 1pm and I was laying in a hot and relaxing bubble bath with a book in my hand and a face mask on. Even though we have known each other for 3 months and dated for 2 months, it is our first date and I feel like I need to look perfect.

I was reading words off the page as I threw grapes into my mouth every once and a while. I was utterly and peacefully relaxed. I then was awoken from the Pride and Prejudice world when my phone rang. I put my bookmark in and reached over for my phone. Ryan.

"You missed me already?" I smiled even though i knew he can't see me.

"Mmm, so sassy" he replied.

I smirked while giggling.

"What's up" I said while putting a grape in my mouth.

"Just woke up" he laughed.

"Ry, its 1pm" I laughed.

"So?" He chuckled "you?"

"I actually woke up at 11. I am taking a bath right now" I told him.

"Damn, I am on my way!" He said.

"Alone! I am taking a bath alone" I blushed.

"You are no fun" I could imagine him pouting "next time call me, okay?"

I rolled my eyes playfully while giggling "whatever"

"I was actually calling to tell you that I am going to pick you up at 7" he said.

"7 like on the dot or your 'fashionably late' 7?" I said into the phone.

"Ha ha" he sarcastically laughs "hilarious"

"No I'm serious. Imma try to be punctual this time" he said.

"Alrighty" I smiled..

"See you later baby" he said.

Him calling me baby always makes my heart melt. Always.

"See you later, Ry" I sweetly smiled.

He then hung up.

I ate another grape while putting my phone back down.

"I should probably get out soon.." I thought to myself.

"Mom, I am getting ready for a date can I call you back tomorrow?" I said as my shoulder and ear held my phone while I searched for a dress.

"A date? With who?" She said with a shocked voice.

Oh crap. I have forgotten to talk to my parents about Ryan. Every time we talk it is always about school work and stuff. Basics. It has always escaped my mind. I do want to tell her but it is 6:29pm Ryan will be here in 30 minutes. I am not even ready!

"My boyfriend" I finally answered.

"You have a boyfriend!? tell me more" She said, not trying to hid her excitment.

"Yeah, I'll tell you later i am kinda running late. Call you tomorrow?"

"ohh darn. alright" i could imagine her pout.

"okay" i laughed lightly "Bye mom. Say hi to daddy for me. Bye" I hung up and threw my phone onto the bed.

"This one?" I stared at a dress.

"too formal" "too casual" "too tight" "ewh no" "too colorful" "too old" "too short" "too long"

I sighed then find the perfect one. It is a white lace -don't judge, I happen to REALLY like white lace..- strapless dress with a red bow. the dress ends right above mid-thigh and is great for a dinner with Ryan. I bet he'll love it!
