Something like love

chapter14

I wake up and go take a shower, when i get out i look i the mirror and sigh.

"Hello sexy" i say and smile at myself and walk out of the bathroom. I dry myself off and put on a sweatshirt that says homie and black sweat pants with a snapback that says i love haters in white writing.

"Hey" Brooke says and puts a plate full of pancakes in front of me.

"Hey I got a date tonight with dereck" I said and smiled.

"Really?" she laughed.

"Yeah at seven" I say and laugh

"Well its five thirty now so go take a shower"  she says and points up stairs.

"Don't tell me what to doo" I say in a funny voice and make a face.

I ran upstairs and jumped in the shower. When I was done I wrapped a towel around my body and a towel around my head and walked out to my closet.

"hmmmmmm what should I wear?" I say and tap my chin with my finger. I actually did like dereck and I was so happy to be going on this date with him. I dont want to come off strong like I'm trying to impress him too much but I want to impress him alittle bit. So I went for somthing sassy and sweet, I put on black lacey underwear and bra with a thin long sleeved oversized black and white tiger cardigan with black leggings with black wedged sneakers, I put on my sterling silver music note necklace and go back to the bathroom. I put on some smokey eyeshadow and black eyeliner  I put on just a little bit of blush and clear lipgloss. I grab my flat irons and straighten my hair then put little spirals at the end. I look at myself approvingly in the mirror. I walk downstairs and text dereck.

me: hey

dereck: Hey

m:So when are you comming

d: at seven are you ready?

m: Yeah but don't rush

d: Okay I'll be there at six thirty

m: you don't have to rush

d: I am already ready lol

m: oh me too lol

d: I don't want to wait to see you

m: aww

d: I'm on my way

m: no texting and driving bye

d: Okay bye

I sit on the black leather wrap around couch staring impatiently at the slowly passing time.

"Hey" Scott says and sits next to me and puts his arms around the back of the couch.

"Hey" I say letting out a light sigh of impatience.

"Have a date?" He asks and tugs on my cardigan.

"Yup" I say and let out another long sigh.

he chuckles and smacks my leg "You're gonna get laid dressed like that"  He gets up and walks half way across the room then stops and looks over his shoulder "I'll tell B that you'll be home late" He walks down the hall and i hear him say 'Very late' in his mind.

I look after him then laugh 'Yeah right' i say to myself then slouch back into the couch. The doorbell rings and i jump back up, grab my phone and my purse and walk so fast to the door it almost felt like i ran. I open up the door and there he is. 'Dereck' i say in my mind, there he was staring at me with those deep blue eyes. he's wearing a black leather jersey jacket with sleeves rolled up to his elbows, a gray and black shirt, and beige jeans with black and gold adidas. He smirkes at me and grabs my hand and walks me to his Black jaguar XJR. He opens up the car door for me, I look around to see if anyone was watching then quickly sat down in the car. He sits in the drivers seat, starts the car and pulls away from my house. I wait until we are past my neighborhood to ask.

"So, this your parents car?"

"No, Its mine" He says with a side smile

i laugh "So your parents just bought you this super expensive jag?" i ask

"Yup. I get a preasent like this almost every year" He says

"Oh my gosh my song is on!" I yell and turn the song "Timber" by Ke$ha and sing to it and dance in the seat. He looks at me and laughs. I grinned as he started to sing along. When the song stopped, a heavy, awkward silence fell over us and the car as filled with a cloud of awkward and nerves. The rest of the ride was silent other than the radio. We pulled up to a large, victorian house and my jaw went slack.

"Wow this is beautiful!" I breathed. "Is this yours?"

"Yeah."

"Its amazing."

"Thank you." I looked over the house again before he spoke. "Shall we?" I noded and he jumped out of the car, before walking around and opening my door. I smiled and slid out.

"Follow me." He grabbed my hand and I drew in a sharp breath, the electricity that shot through my arm when he touched me had surprised me.  He didn't seem to notice as he lead me towards the back of the house. Once we got there, he paused and turned around, waiting for my reaction. I gave him a curious look then turned to face the backyard and my jaw went slack, again.

"NO FREAKING WAY! YOU LIVE ON A BEACH?!" My hands flew over my mouth when I realized how loud I was being. He chuckled and I smiled sheepishly.

"Yeah, come on." He said, leading me towards the water.

"It's a beautiful night." I said, as I ran my fingers through my hair, which was blowing back in the gentle breeze.

"Yes you are." He said smiling at me. I blushed  and looked down at my feet. He suddenly stopped and I looked at him with a curious expression. He smiled and nodded to his left. I nodded up and my heart melted. There, laid out in front of me, was the most romantic pinic I had ever seen, complete with lit candles and a vase full of roses in the middle.

"Wow, its beautiful."

"Thank you. Sit, sit." He said, gesturing towards the blanket. I smiled and sat down. He started putting food on a plate for me and I looked out at the sunset.

"That veiw is amazing."

"Something else isn't it?"

"Yeah." I breathed. He looked at me and I turned towards him, coming face to face with a serious expression.

"Destiny. I like you."

"I know."

"No. You don't know. I really like you, God who am I kidding? I freaking love you. I love your smile and the way you laugh, the way you walk is just so cute, everything. I love you and everything about you."

"I don't know I mean- I just- I've heard that story before. I just don't know if I can trust it again. I'm sorry."

"Its okay. I will prove it to you. I will find a way to prove to you how much I love you." The determination and sincerity in his voice scared me a little, so I just nodded. He pressed his lips to mine and I accepted the kiss willingly.

After dinner he started to show me around the house and holy crap was it a gorgeous place. He was currently showing me the upstairs I had seen multiple rooms, each even more intriging than the next one. We finally reached the last room upstairs and he opened the door.

"This is my room, it might be a little messy." He opened the door and the first thing I noticed that he was right, but only a few clothes on the floor.

"Its nice." I said stepping inside.
