A World Of New Beginnings

Shopping Date

"So about that date, Alex." I smile and go sit by him on the bed, so our shoulders are more than just barely touching.

There we sat on my bed. "What about it?" I asked, wanting to know if he was serious or not. That'd be cool if he was. Haha! What am I thinking?! That's not right! Why would he want to go out with me?

"Well, we can go get you some clothes just to get you by for now, and then I was thinking we could go out tonight. That's if you had no other plans." He laughed at his own words and looked at me.

"Sure. Let's go." I stood and headed for the door. What was I doing, allowing this?! We just met last night and now you're going out with him? On a date! Aiden wouldn't like this.

We went to the mall and shopped in all different kinds of stores, getting all sorts of clothes, shoes, necessary makeup and hair things. The last store we went to was a dress store. I looked up at the sign.

"Joon, this is too expensive. Maybe we should go somewhere else." I started walking away, but he grabbed my hand. "Oh no you don't. We're going in." He pulled me into the store and started throwing dresses at me, having me try them on and show him.

I tried on every dress he threw at me until I came to it. A long black dress with off the shoulder straps and a slit on the left leg, exposing my whole leg. I put it on and stepped out of the dressing room.

The expression on Joon's face, as I stepped out, pushing hair behind my ear, was priceless. He sat there, mouth gaping open in awe. "You're beautiful." Was what came out of his mouth as he stood.

"Thanks." I blushed and he took my hand twirling me around. I didn't know what to do or say. I didn't even know what I looked like in a dress. I'd never worn one before.

"Would you like to see it?" Joon asked. I nodded and he covered by eyes, bringing me to a mirror, most likely. He uncovered my eyes and I was shown what I really look like in a dress. It was beautiful. I was speechless, but Joon was not.

"Would you like to go out to eat with me tonight?" He asked, taking my hands in his. I had no idea whether to say yes and be happy or reject him and go straight home. But my mouth spoke for me once again

"I would love to go out with you!" My face beamed with life and happiness as I accepted his request.
