You had 40 minutes until Jeremiah came to pick you up for dinner and you couldn't figure out which dress to wear. How was picking out a dress could be so hard? You put on the midnight blue dress that hugged your curves in all the right areas and realized that this was the one. Picking out the dress was one thing, but your hair was another. You couldn't decide on whether to flat iron your hair or wear it curly. You liked your natural curls so you kept it curly. You quickly did a natural makeup for your face and gave yourself a once over. Damn I look good. You put on a pair of heels and you heard a knock on the door.

Standing on the otherside was Jeremiah, in a button down shirt and black slacks. "Wow, y/n, you look amazing," Jeremiah said while eyeing you up and down. Thanks, you're not looking to bad yourself. You then grabbed a shawl, purse and keys and walked out the door. I thought you made reservations at 8pm. We don't want to be late, now. You both stepped out of your apartment and you locked the door. Once you both reached Jeremiah's car, you went to open your side but was stopped by Jeremiah. I see that chivalry isn't dead, thank you, as you climbed in. Jeremiah only chuckled as he got in and started the car.

You looked out the window as he drove. The silence between the two of you was comforting. You suddenly got out of your trance when you felt his hand take yours and started to caress it. You then looked down and back at Jeremiah and gave him a sly smile and looked back out the window. You both then pulled up at an oceanfront restaurant and you looked back at Jeremiah in awe. How in the actual hell did were you able to get reservations for tonight? This place is always filled and........Jeremiah put a finger to your lips and you instantly got chills. "Its my little secret, but if you must know, the owner and I are childhood friends and let's just say I was able to pull some strings," said Jeremiah as he helped you out the car. You looked at him amazed as the two of you walked in. The two of you were immediately seated with the view of the ocean and you couldn't help to notice how impressed you were. You both ordered and enjoyed each other's company.

This is amazing, I'm impressed how you were able to pull all this off. Thank you for doing all this. "Remember, I wanted to start fresh and I owed you a dinner," said Jeremiah as he finished the remains on his plate. You picked up your glass of wine and took a sip as you looked out towards the ocean. "I'm glad you enjoyed tonight and I hope I'm able to take you out again." As in another date? I don't see why not. Jeremiah smiled got bright from hearing those words. He then reached over and took your hand to caress it again. You smiled as your ears picked up to some music that you hear in the background. Jeremiah noticed how you were listening to the music and suddenly got up. "Would you like to dance?" he asked while extending his hand towards you. You graciously accepted as you put your hand in his.

The two of you began to sway back and forth in sync with each other as Jeremiah pulls you closer towards him. You sigh in content as you let the music consume you. You were so entranced by the music that you didn't notice that Jeremiah pulled you closer towards him. This pulled you out your trance only to have another trance put on you by his beauty. He really has gotten more handsome since we broke up. You looked up into his eyes and saw admiration and love in his eyes. You leaned in closer and slowly kissed his lips. Jeremiah was surprised at first, but quickly shook it off and kissed you back. Jeremiah ended the kiss and then pulled back, much to your dismay. "Do you want to go somewhere more private?" Yes, please.

You gathered your things and the two of you walked back to his car. Once settled, he drove back to his place since it was not far from the restaurant. Jeremiah helped you out of the car and the two of you entered his apartment. Once in, Jeremiah grabbed your wrist and pulled you close and kissed you passionately. You returned the kiss just as passionate as you wrapped your arms around his neck. After a few minutes, you broke the kiss to catch your breaths. Jeremiah then places his forehead against yours and caressed your cheek. "Did I ever tell you that you looked beautiful tonight?" You shook your head no. "Can I tell you how beautiful you are all night?" He asked. You shook your head yes again. Jeremiah then took your hand and lead you to his bedroom, where you were in awe.
