Beating Hearts

"Red dress"

Completely starstruck and unable to stand on my feet, I feel his arms climb from the back of my back to hold me closer and tighter to him. We kissed, Our very first that I only wished would've been never ending.

"I couldn't help myself" I hear a tough manly tone sweeten as he whispers to me when every atom within me shivers with excitement and happiness.

"Glad you didn't baby" I smile back at him and go into the changing room to try the long backless long-sleeved red dress Chad pulled out for me with Joy.

I tried it on, it was still unzipped and I needed his help but it was absolutely beautiful, it made my hazel eyes pop out and suited my pale skin tone that I never adored.

"Are you done yet?" I hear him say showing that he was impatient when it came down to shopping, although he enjoyed it.

"Yes, I just need your help"

"Sure Babe, come out and show me how beautiful my girl truly is inside out"

What if he doesn't like it? Is it too much for this occasion or will he love it as much as i do?

I opened the door seeing him standing with one leg crossed over the other and his head leaning on the wall which made his hair look messy, the good kind.

His jaw drops on the floor and his brown eyes grow wider than ever, he gets up straightening himself and heads towards me.

He kisses my cheek and moves down to my neck, making me feel the love i've never received, I hold his neck with both hands and pull his face closer to mine and kiss his lips with force, he's my one and only, and he forever will be.

I push myself away knowingly of what he's capable of doing if I stay near him for long. He comes closer and zips up my dress for me, I look at myself in the mirror in awe, I love everything about this dress.

He curls up behind me and hugs me from behind, I hold his arms with my hands and look at how perfectly we fit each other, he kisses my neck again and unzips it.

"Go change, i'll have a look around", He scratches the back of his neck which makes him look so attractive, beyond words.

I run out to pay the two hundred fifty dollars knowing that the dress is worth every cent.
Heading towards the cashier that was eyeing Chad earlier and I hand out the dress. She places it in a bag and hands it to me without asking me to pay or gesturing a smile.

"Um, wasn't I supposed to pay?" I ask completely confused by the way she's acting.

"Your boyfriend paid the amount needed, you shouldn't worry"

"My boyfriend?"

"Yes, the one waiting for you outside that stressed on the fact that you're the only girl he sees and the only one with the so-called beautiful eyes full of love, as he stated, yes that guy, your boyfriend." She says with rage in her eyes.

I smile at her and carry my bag as I run out the store with a huge grin on my face, he called me his girlfriend.

Realizing my surroundings I run as fast as I can and as he turns around, I jump and hug him so tight that I feel myself suffocating him

"Thank you thank you thank you baby" and I kiss him with delight.

"If this is how you'll repay me, I'd buy the entire place for you my love" he says rather hinting to me.

4 p.m the same afternoon

we got home and he unlocks the door to his apartment, I smile at him as he drops the bags to the floor, i move closer to him.

"I repaid you for the dress, but not for loving me today" I unbutton his shirt and he smiles and carries me to the bedroom.
_______________

I wake up in-between messed sheets and clothes on the floor, I look at my phone to read the time and it's 6 p.m. not wanting to run late to the wedding, I kiss his back then go up to his neck gently.

"Wake up baby, we have to get going."

He turns around happily and pulls me closer and kisses my cheek, then we both head to the dressing room.

He watches me from the corner of the room applying my makeup and then comes towards me, he picks out a red lipstick and pulls up my hair to tie it in a messy bun, I won't blame him it was his first attempt and it didn't end up that bad, after all he wanted me to work comfortably.

I look up to him and smile with butterflies flying rapidly in my stomach.

He begins wearing his belt and shoes and then struggles with his tie, so I go and help him with it, feeling like a married couple, he looks down at me with his beautiful brown eyes as I finish doing his navy blue tie that matches his grey suit perfectly.

"I want to wake up to your pretty face everyday" He says and I blush.
