The Boy With Blue Eyes

Part 3

*skip ahead a few weeks*

It had been a few weeks and Devan and I were closer than ever.

Every day after school we would go to one of our houses and do homework, play video games, or just hang out and talk.

On Saturday, I was hanging out around my house and not doing much when I heard the door ring.

Sighing, I got up off my bed to see who was at the door.

When I got down the stairs and opened the door, no one was around. But there was a package on the ground and I picked it up before going back inside.

I opened the box and inside was a note that said: Be ready at 7 tonight and wear this. ~Devan ♡

I eagerly lifted the dark blue material out of the box and held it up.

Inside was the most beautiful deep blue dress.

It had lace around the top and came down to just above my knee.

I grinned in anticipation and ran to my bedroom to get ready.

I quickly got in and out of the shower, then decided to put on some light makeup.

Because I wasn't sure what we would be doing, I kept my makeup simple and natural looking.

I grabbed a pair of silver heels and curled my long y/h/c hair.

As soon as I finished getting ready I went to sit on my front porch to wait for Devan to show up.

Devan drove up in his car a few minutes later.

He presented to me a single white rose with a nervous smile.

I beamed at him and gently took the rose from him and smelled it.

Devan was wearing a blue dress shirt that matched his eyes perfectly and a nice pair of pants.

He took my arm and gently guided me to the door of his car, where he opened and closed the door for me.

We left my house and went to a really nice restaurant on the other side of town.

On the drive to the restaurant, we listened to out favorite songs, singing loudly the whole way.

We walked inside laughing and Devan said,"This place has been booked for so long. It was so hard to make reservations. Somebody cancelled so that's how I was able to get a table."

After a really long wait, we got to our table and ordered our food.

Devan took my hand and got a really serious look on his face.

"Y/n, I want to ask you a serious question. Will you please be my girlfriend?"

I was speechless for a second and then I smiled.

"Yes! Of course I will!"

He laughed and said, "Good! I'm really glad you said yes. I'm so excited that we can get to know each other even better now!"

I laughed and said, "There's nothing I would rather do than get to be your girlfriend!"

As soon as we has finished our dinner, we went for a walk downtown and window shopped.

As we went through a particularly pretty area with lights strung through the trees, Devan reached for my hand.

At first I was super nervous because I had never held a guys hand before, but I started to relax after a few minutes.

*Devan's pov*

When I reached for y/n's hand, I didn't really plan for it to happen, it just kind of did.

We walked around for a little bit longer before we went back to the car.

I took her home and when I got inside my house, Collins almost knocked me over because he was so eager to hear what she had said.

He asked me so many questions that it was super late when I finally told him, "Collins, you know how much fun I'm having being questioned to death, but I would like to get some sleep before the sun comes up."

Collins laughed and said, "Ok bro. See you in the morning."

I went upstairs and as soon as I got in my bed I fell asleep.

*Collins pov*

I said goodnight to Devan and he went upstairs.

I'm really happy for him because he seemed more like himself than he had been since before our move.

I know that things have been really difficult for him recently so I hope that y/n will help him get back to his old self.
