why me?

chapter 10

I closed the door behind me and looked at my clock. 12:30. I have 5 1/2 hours left till my first date with Steve. I walked over to my closet throughout clothes around. When I finally looked at my clock it was already two.

"Ugh where did the time go?" I asked myself as I picked a beautiful dress to wear. It was long in the back but shifter in the front. It was dark black with roses all over it. I smiled at the dress before laying it on my bed. Then I jumoed into the shower. I shaved and put extra  conditioner in my hair to make it shine. I got out and dried off. I wrapped my hair in my towel before pulling my dress on. I started to blow dry my hair. Once done I grabbed my curling iron and put luscious curls into my dark brown hair. I grabbed my hippy styled head band and put it on. I added minimum make up, I hate wearing make-up. I looked at the time; 5:45. Oh my god only 15 minutes. I grabbed a pair of blavk ballet flaps and slipped them on. By the time I checked myself in the mirror I heard a knock on my door. I glanced once again at the time; 6:00 on the dot. I smiled before opening my door. My smiled grew as I saw him. He had on a tan long sleeve dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearm. He had black dress pants on and black dress shoes. His shirt was tucked in revealing a black belt. His perfect blonde hair was styled in his old fashioned style he always has it in.

"Wow you look..." he looked at me oufit before his eyes returned to mine, "stunning." he breathed.

"You don't look to bad yourself." I complimented. "So where are we going?" I asked glancing at him as we left the house. He lokked at me and smiled.

"Its a secret." I sighed I don't like secrets.This time he got int the drivers side and buckled in. I sat in the passengers seat next to him giving him a questioning look.

"Uh Steve do u out know how to drive?" I asked still with that questioning look on my face.

"Of course I do they had cars in the 40's you know." he said glancing at me before starting the car and pulling away.

~skip car ride~

He pulled up to a restaurant and parked.

"I hope this is good I have been researching it all day." I turned towards him.

"Wait you we r on the computer?" I asked stunned. He scoffed.

"No the newspaper." I laughed before unbuckling. I was about to open my door when Steve rushed over and did it for me. I smiled at him giving him a small thanks before following him inside.

"Hi welcome to Rafele how may I help you? Table for two?" She asked us.

"Yes." Steve said before she grabbed two menu's. We followed her to a booth with multiple lighted candles. Steve pulled out my chair and pushed it in when I sat down. I mumbled a thank you.

"Your waiter will be right over." the lady said before walking away. Steve spoke as soon as she left.

"I never thought you would agree." he admitted picking up a piece of bread the waiter gave us. I looked up from my own piece to him.

"Why wouldn't I?"

"Because I'm just a friend, this is only a mission." he said his expression changing.

"Oh Steve you know we are friends." I said  sincerely but his eyes saddened. I reached out and grabbed his hand. Just then a waiter walked up. Great another slutty girl. Her eyes raked Steve's body as she chewed on a piece of gum.

Steve ordered and so did I. She returned a minute later with new bright red lipstick on. I sighed. This always happens when I'm out with Steve. She set down two cokes before winking at Steve. This time Steve noticed her actions and was blushing uncontrollably. He turned to face me still blushing and I laughed. His face was red as a tomato and he has a slight horrified expression. I couldn't hold in my laugh that seemed to catch the attention of a few tables around us. "Th-that wasn't funny." He stuttered out. I cover my mouth with my hand to conceal my laughter. "Oh, but it was." I say with my family's famous smirk. This caused him to blush more.

The dinner went by quick. A lot of talking between us filled the night. Most of it was just me explaining a cell phone. It was about 7:30 when we left. Its mid june and nice and warm. We decided to walk through central park for a while. As we walked through the park it seemed to glow with the beautiful setting sun. Not much was said between us but nothing needed to be said. I don't remember how or when we got back to the apartment but I know I fell asleep with a smile on my face. But every good thin must come to an end. For tonight the dream came back.
