It took a while for me to get ready. I had to make sure my hair was brushed, the dirt was washed off my face, and I put on the best suit I had.
When I went to pick her up, I was absolutely speechless. I had no idea she owned the clothing she wore.
Her hair was swept back in a ponytail, and she wore a white dress shirt with a short black skirt that barely covered her thighs. How she made her skin glow, I have no idea.

The dinner was lovely, but not as good as the way she was. We laughed and talked, enjoying the delicious three course meal.
We ended it with dancing, though I was a bit clumsy whereas she graced across the floor with ease. That's when I finally told her, "You have no idea how beautiful you look, and how wonderful you are." I barely got the last word out before she kissed me, soft and sweet.
I would have stayed like this forever if not for the raucous laughter behind me.
"My God, Kilorn! What are you doing with that training dummy?!?" Cal wheezed out.
"I- I was- I was - wait, how long have you guys been standing there?" I asked, horrified that Mare was holding a recording device.
"Long enough to see you making out with that thing. I am soooo showing this to Cameron!!" She squealed before dashing out of the balcony.
"Mare! Cal! Get back here with that thing!" I shrieked while chasing after them, praying to whatever gods were out there that Cameron was in a bad mood.

Unfortunately, she wasn't, and now I'll never live this down.
Tada!! Did ya expect the ending?
First off, a shout-out to my friend Taylor for inspiring me to write this with the prompt: "How long have you been standing there?". Also to the people that are reading this collection!
This isn't my best, I know, but that's only because I rewrote this little bit in an hour and purely based on the original prompt I wrote that was very similar to it.
This is the guest writer speaking, always the guest writer when it comes to RQ. Have a good day🙂.
