Elliot went home to get ready for tonight. He was going to pick me up at 6:00, so I had an hour to get ready. I went and had another shower, rinsing the sweat off my body.

My mind raced while I was in the shower. I felt guilty having sex with Luke, it made me feel sick sometimes. How would I feel if Elliot was having sex with some other girl? Im basically being a prostitute.

I finished up in the shower and wrapped a towel around myself. I sat down at my mirror and applied some makeup. I never left the house without my eyeliner and mascara, but I never left the house with lipstick, it didn't appeal to me. Only lipgloss.

I finished up with my blush and went to my walk in wardrobe to pick out a dress. Elliot said not to dress too fancy, but not too formal. Thanks for the help. I chose out a dress I bought last summer.

It was a light peach colour from the sleeves to my waist, but black from my waist down. It went a third way down my thighs and had a small diamond cut out just below my breast area. It wasn't very fancy, but I liked it and it suited the occasion.

I wore the necklace Elliot bought me when we first started going out, in Year 7. I pulled the top half of my hair back, plaiting the ends. Keeping it simple, I straightened the rest of my hair. Perfect.

I went back downstairs and sat at the kitchen bench. Nina came in and sat down next to me. "Meeting up with Luke?" she smiled. I looked at her in shock "How do you know about me and Luke?" Nina laughed "He came over looking for you, he said that he needed to tell you something."

Shit, shit, shit. I smiled and shook my head "Im actually doing something else." She nodded "So who are you meeting?" she raised an eyebrow. I stood up "I need to use the bathroom." I smiled and ran up the stairs.

I felt sick. She knew about Luke and I, did my dad. What if Elliot finds out? Oh my lord, Im fucked.

I went back down the stairs and Elliot was standing at the door. As I went to grab my handbag, Nina pulled me aside. Her voice was barely above a whisper "You're not as innocent as I thought...what if Im not either." She smirked and pushed me away. I scratched my arm and left with Elliot. I hope this goes well.

The car trip with Elliot was interesting. It was with his parents, so we sat in the back. His parents are the two nicest people anyone could meet. Melanie and Peter James. Peter is one of Queensland's finest lawyers and Melanie is a well known doctor, I guess thats how they get their money.

Melanie was always talking about anything "How have you been Dakota?" she smiled. "I've been great thanks, how bout you?" I smiled as well. I loved this family so much. "I've been fine. Im so glad you and Elliot are together again."

I was slightly surprised by the way Elliot reacted. He jumped in "Mum, Dakota and I have always been close and we regret not staying together, ok?" Melanie laughed "Ok, Elliot," she looked at me "He needed you back in his life." I laughed "I never left actually."

It took us about half an hour to get to the restaurant we were eating at. When we did, Elliot helped me out of the car. As I stood up he leaned into my ear and whispered "You're wearing the necklace I bought?" I smiled and nodded.

We got our table and Peter finally spoke. Peter preferred to keep is voice to the courtroom. "How's your father?" he looked at his palms. My father and Peter worked together. They were an undefeated team.

"He's good. He was just over seas fighting for some guy who was accused of murdering his grandma. Turns out his grandma actually committed suicide in front of him." I bit my lip. Some of the cases my dad fought for were just plain stupid.

A waitress came over, she was really friendly. To Elliot of course. Every girl is overly friendly to Elliot, but I know he is mine...for now. I still worry if he will leave me eventually. Either he'll find someone better or he'll find out my secret.
