C ya-C
The mayor is coming over for diner, my dad works as a counsel men so they work together. But since it's the mayor I have to dress up all Fancy.
Apparently he has a son my age, Tobias I think his name was. apparently they live right next door.
I put on a black sleeveless dress with a sweetheart neckline and it hugs my waist and flows down after that, it goes down to my knees.
I put on some black Flats then start on my hair. I curl it in little ringlets and put in a black headband with a big black flower off to the side on.
I put on some eyeliner, mascara, lightly dabbed on some grey eyeshadow. I put on some clear lipgloss and look in the mirror.
I actually look a bit pretty.
I hear a knock at the door so I go down the stairs and open it. And I see him.
Hello, I'm Beatrice Prior, You must be Marcus and Tobias Eaton please come in." I say trying to hide my shock that four is Tobias eaton.
"Please let me take your coats." I say.
Marcus basically throws his jacket on me and Tobias hand me his.
"Beatrice?" He asks shocked that's my name
"Tobias?" I say
"You gotta point...." He says I shrug "I kinda like it." I smile and walk to the closet and hang up the coats.
I walk back to the kitchen and set the table. And get everyone drinks. And I sit down when mom brings out the dinner.
We have chicken, peas, greenbeans, mashed potatoes, and salad.
Me and Tobias are the last to get our food.
We are silent as we eat and do no speak unless spoken to. The only conversation at the table is Marcus and my dad talking about politics.
"Beatrice, why don't you Take Tobias on a tour of the house?" My mom suggests. I nod and show him around and then we get to my room.
"Well four." I say "looks like we're neighbors." I say and close the door.
"Seems so." He says "oh and could you not calm me Tobias around anybody?" He asks
"Only if you don't call me Beatrice around anybody." I reply
"Looks like we have a deal." He says and smiles. Gosh I love that smile.
We shake hands and my skin tingles at his touch. We stare into each others eyes. For a minute.
We get so close, inches apart.but then I remember something.
"My mom wanted me to serve desert after showing you around." I whisper
He nods and we slowly walk away from each other.
I walk downstairs and serve cake to everyone.
I think I have confirmed my crush........
