Forever My Person

18. Perfect Date

Everly

I stand in my room looking into my large mirror trying to decide on what to wear for my date tonight with Cohen.

I hold up each dress against my body in the mirror trying to decide on which one I should choose.

"The red one. You need some pop of color you always wear black. You're going on a date not to a funeral." Avery tries to persuade me.

I hold the red body con against me. It is sexy. It comes to mid thigh and shows my curves perfectly. My favorite part of the dress is the thin straps that cross in the back. I guess I could try it.

"I like the red one too but I don't think I have any heels to wear with it." I tell Avery.

She gets up from my bed and heads to her closet. After a few moments she comes back holding a pair of nude Louis Vuitton stilettos.

"These will make your legs look incredible. Cohen won't want to take his hands off you. Now hurry up and go shower so I can do your hair and make up." She demands.

I take them from her as I place the dress on my bed and the heels on the floor next to it.

I rush to my bathroom and get into the shower. After I've shaved and washed every part of my body I get out and dry off. I leave my hair damp so Avery can work her magic. I wrap my robe around me and head back out to my room.

After an hour I'm fluffed, contoured, and highlighted thanks to Ave.She gave my hair a blow out giving it the volume and bounce it desperately needed and kept my make up simple but sexy.

After adding the last spray of hairspray I slide on the dress and stilettos. I pray we're not on our feet all night for this date or I'm going to need him to carry me home by the end of the night.

"Cohen isn't going to know what to do with himself."

"You don't think it's too much? Especially for our first date?" I question her.

"Definitely not. His jaw is going to hit the floor when he sees you." She gives me a wink.

"I never got to ask you if you and Liam are okay with Cohen and I. Especially after Liam found us at the engagement party." I blush remember Liam catching us in the men's bathroom.

She walks over to me standing in front of the mirror so I have her attention.

"Ev. If I could pick anyone for you to be with Cohen would be my first choice. I see the way he makes you smile and I haven't seen you happy for awhile. Go have fun you deserve it." She gives me a hug reassuring her answer.

"That's what I'm scared of though. I'm scared I'm going to be too happy and every thing is going crumble just like it did with Kyle." I look down trying to hide the tears that are almost coming.

"First of all there's no such thing as being too happy. You deserve to be happy and Cohen isn't Kyle. That is going to be your problem if you keep comparing them. Give Cohen a chance to prove himself to you."

Just as I'm about to reply to her there's a knock on the door.

"Come in." Avery calls out. We both know who it is before the door opens.

I've never seen a man make a suit look so damn good. Cohen enter the room in a classic black suit, white dress shirt and black tie. His tattoos peek through the white shirt.He looks like a god. His hair is styled to look messy in a perfect kind of way making him look even more delicious.
