Wear something nice ;)
(Y/n)
Like something fancy?
Joj
Sure
I put my phone down and looked through my closet. I pulled out two dresses and tried them on. After a good fifteen minutes of going back and forth between them, I settled on a nice black dress that came to a little lower than mid-thigh and had a multi strap neckline. It looked beautiful on me and could fit a fancy restaurant.
6:03 pm
I was checking myself in the mirror one last time when I heard someone knock on the door. I assumed it was George so I grabbed my bag and threw my phone in it. I smoothed down my dress, took a deep breath and opened the door. Sure enough, there was George standing on the other side holding a rose in his hand. He had on a dark navy blue extreme slim fit suit and his hair was actually styled. It still looked the same, just neater. I couldn't take my eyes off him and it seemed he couldn't take his eyes off of me, either. He finally broke the silence.
"You like what you see?"
"What? Oh, ha, um," I began to blush, "yeah... I never thought I'd ever see you in a suit."
He laughed.
"Well, I'll wear one for a special lady." He winked and then handed me the rose. "You look absolutely stunning. You're so beautiful. You know that, right?"
I felt like my face was a tomato at this point. I just looked down at my shoes and mumbled "thank you" through my enormously large smile. He took my hand and said,
"Shall we go?"
"We shall." I giggled.
I was expecting him to lead me down the hall, but we walked a single step over to the door of his apartment. I was a little confused when he started to open his door, but everything made sense when we stepped inside.
There were candles leading to the dining room, and we followed them. Then came into view a beautifully set table for two. There were a few rose petals on the table cloth and of course some candles in the middle. He already had set out our food. It looked like we were eating beautifully plated dumplings. He pulled out my chair for me and I sat down, still astonished that he did all this. George sat down across from me.
"Well, I hope you like Japanese, cause we're having dumplings." He smiled.
"I love Japanese! Did you make these?"
"Yeah. I hope they're ok. I mean I'm not a chef or anything, but I learned how to make these when I was a kid so..."
I took a bite and they were actually really good.
"Joji, they're amazing!"
"Ha, uh, thanks." He rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
6:46 pm
We finished eating and we sat down on the couch.
"I can't believe you did all of this! Why?" I asked.
"Well, I was thinking, and today has been a month since we first met. I know this is a lot, but I really like you and, um, I think you'd be a pretty cool girlfriend." He laughed nervously and looked down at his hands.
He had asked me earlier to be his girlfriend, but it hadn't really sunk in until now. I looked at the adorable man sitting next to me and smiled.
"I think you'd be a pretty cool boyfriend."
George looked up. He had a wide grin on his face. I was admiring his features when before I knew it his lips were on mine. He hungrily kissed me, more aggressively than earlier that day. He layed me back on the couch and climbed ontop. He kissed my neck, jawline, collarbone and then came back up to face me. He kissed my lips and then pulled back. He obviously saw that I didn't want him to stop. He put his hands on my waist.
"I wanna take my time with you." He said as he leaned down to kiss me again. "So I think it'd be best if you left before I got carried away." He leaned back down to kiss me one more time.
I giggled. I cupped his cheek in my hand.
"I guess so." I said and kissed him one more time.
We got up, hand in hand, and he walked me to the door.
"I had a great time tonight, Joj."
"I did too. I'll text you."
He released my hand and I walked out and entered my apartment. I sat down on my bed, this time expecting that text.
Joj
I miss you
