Never Date a Genius

Chapter 19

Sophie sighed as Mason left. She knew deep into her heart that she wanted to go to the party. Yasmin, Mason and her used to go together. She didn't particularly enjoy the drinking games but she had loved dancing with Mason.

She may not be into sports but dancing was her thing. Her parents enrolled her in a dance studio since grade school and had pushed Mason to be her dance partner during recitals. They work well together especially in dancing. It was as though their bodies are attuned to each other and people had often given them space and applauded them during parties.

It seems weird that she would not be going to the party. She finally called Jason after internally debating with herself for an hour. Jason picked up her call after two tries.

"Hi Sophie! What time should I pick you up for our date?"

"Ummm, about our date..." Sophie said in an uncertain manner.

"Yes? Uh oh, are you cancelling?"

"No! Of course not. But would you terribly mind if we go to Chris' party for our date?" she asked in a rush and waited for his reply. She can hear him breathing heavily.

"I didn't think you were into parties Sophie but we can go to the party if that's what you want. Just promise me one thing." he replied solemnly.

"I'm sorry. It's just that I have forgotten I have promised Mace and Yas that I'll be there. What do you want me to promise you?"

"Promise me that I get to choose our next date. I want it to be special." he replied earnestly.

"Sure as long as it's not some dingy hotel." Sophie said teasing me. "And that it would just be at PG level."

"Aww Sophie, it would be a 5 star hotel and you would be begging me to make it R18." he replied, laughing at her.

"Ewww, please do not corrupt me. So pick me up by 7?"

"Yep. I'll be there. Wear something sexy and I promise you that you'll have the best party with the sexiest man alive."

"Whatever Jason! I much prefer your brain over your body."

"That's because you haven't seen the goods yet Sophie." he said with a very husky voice. Sophier burst out laughing. "Oh please, you are corrupting my innocent mind. See you later Jason and please cover your goods when you get here."

Sophie called Yas and said that she will be going with Jason to the party. Yas insisted that they should prepare together. She was at her house by 5 pm.

Yasmin opened her closet choosing a dress for Sophie to the party. Sophie said that jeans are fine but Yas tsked and told her to leave it to her. Yasmin finally decided on a red dress she bought on whim. It hugged her curves and flaired just above her legs. She also partnered it with her red stiletto sandals.

Yasmin opened her make up kit and worked on her eyes. Sophie wanted to check it out but Yasmin said it was a surprise. After more than an hour of preparation, Yasmin finally showed her to a floor length mirror. Sophie's eyes widened at what she saw.

Her eyes were smoky and her lips were full with the bright red lipstick. She had always been quite demure and she was surprised that she looked very sexy and sophisticated. She looked like a model in magazine.

"Wow! Yas. This is amazing! I don't know what to say!" Sophie exclaimed.

"I know, right? I bet Mason would be drooling!"

"You mean, Jason." Sophie replied looking at her sternly.

"Sorry, I mean Jason. Hahaha." Yasmin replied, looking at her strangely.
