That Summer

Date night

I opened the white rectangular box and found a card from Kyle.

'I didn't really go to the dentist silly, I have a "great" smile don't i? I bought you this for you to wear on our first date. I'll be round at 7.00pm to pick you up. Can't wait beautiful. Xo'

This was adorable. I didn't know what to do.

Well firstly I pulled out the silky dark blue dress which had long open sleeves. It was so pretty. Also in the box was a necklace and earrings wrapped in silver tissue paper. I immediately got up and pulled the silky dress to my body and stood in front of the mirror. I hooked the hanger it came with over my head and held the dress to my hips. I started panicking and wondering how to have my hair and makeup. I already had my outfit and accessories planned out for me so I only had to stress about my head. Was I going to curl it and have it down or half tie it up and add ribbon to my hair? I cautiously walked over to my dressing table and unhooked the dress from my neck. I sat down and places my head into my palms, mumbling to myself on how to look. I gazed into the mirror and played with my long brown hair. Switching styles and doing test runs on the ribbon. I took a cleansing shower and planned on what to talk about to Kyle on our date. I turned the shower off and stepped onto the mat, rinsing out what water was left in my damp hair. I wrapped a towel around my body and walked into my bedroom. I took out the hair rollers from my drawer and started to place them in my hair. I slipped into the dress and placed my arms into the sleeves. I struggled with the zip, tossing and turning, hooking one arm over my shoulder. After managing to get into the dress I started to apply my makeup. Wondering whether I should go all out or go natural.

I had done smoky eyes and nude lipgloss. This way it wouldn't be so noticeable if I got it on my teeth and cutlery. I glided the rollers out my hair and pulled some bobby pins out from my desk. I placed half my hair up and sealed it with a crystal clip leaving he bottom half of my hair to flow with the natural looking beach curls.

I heard a car pull up outside my house so I quickly jumped to the other side of my room. Peering out the corner of my blind I had seen a black limo waiting outside, and Kyle walking towards my porch. I grabbed a bottle of Chanel and sprayed it to my chest and wrists whilst rushing out my room. I snatched my purse and phone from my table as I shut my room door.

Kyle had knocked on the door as came to the top of the landing. My grandpa opened the door and kyles mouth had dropped. ' you look beautiful in that dress. I have a great choice of clothing.' He grinned.

'Careful Kyle, you might sound gay if you carry on.' I blushed as I walked patiently down the stairs trying not to break my ankle in the heels. My grandpa scooped me in for a kiss on the cheek as he said 'have a great night Anna. You go have fun darling.' I saw a look from Kyle to my grandpa as my grandpa carried on, ' 10pm and no later Mr. White.' Kyle seemed to smile and nod. 'I will have her home for 9.58pm sir. No problem.' He reached out for my hand and walked me to the car. Kyle opened the door to the limo and handed me a single red rose with a wink. He shut the door and wandered to the other side of the car and hopped into the back with me. He placed his left arm over me and pulled me into his warm body. ' how do you like my suit? It's Vera wang.' He joked. He really did look good in that suit though.

I had never eaten so much in my life. I swear my dress was going to rip. Kyle payed for the bill and tipped the waiter. I stiffly got my hips from underneath the table trying not to move. Kyle pulled the chair from out of the table an grabbed my arm to pull me up. His eyes met mine. His glistened. I don't mean to sound cheesy but they really sparkled. Like stars.

We were walking out the glass doors and stepped out onto the sidewalk. I heard my name being called and turned around. It was him.
