Love for the Heart

The Date

My heart was racing, my blood was pumping, and I felt like I was going to pass out! I had just kissed Nick, and was now going on a date with him tomorrow night! I couldn't wait for the time to come. I stayed up until 4:00 in the morning watching TV on the couch, hoping to get tired, but I couldn't. It was as if just the thought of  Nick made me feel everything I had felt that night before. Sometimes I felt as if the clock was going slow on purpose to mock me. Then, I came back to reality and noticed that's how time really is. Some how, at about 5:00 in the afternoon, I ended up taking a nap until 9:00. I quickly got off the couch, and rushed to my room. I took a shower, and then wrapped up my hair. I searched in my closet for something amazing to wear on a first date. I found it! It was a short red dress, that lit up the night with hotness when it was on me. I found cute black ballet flats, and some make up. After everything was in order, I got to work. I put my clothes on first, did my hair, and then the make up. After everything was completely finished, I admired myself in the mirror. I looked hot from to top toe! Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. I looked at my clock. It was 10:00 exactly! "Forgot about vampire speed," I said to myself. I checkecd myself once more in the mirror, satisfied, and then went downstairs. I opened the door carefully, wanting to remeber this whole night from beginning to end, with every detail. Finally, when the door opened, I saw him. The boy I had been waiting anxiously to see since the last time he left me. Nick was here, dressed handsomely from top to toe. He wore dressy shoes, nice black pants, and a gorgeous blue shirt. Blue is my favorite color. Suddenly he said "You look very beautiful tonight Maria. I dont think the stars are glowing with more beauty than you this evening."He smiled at me, and then handed me a dozen roses. I smiled, mesmorized by his romantic complimet, and the roses. Eventually, I snapped out of it, and returned the compliment. " And you look very handsome. I cant think of anyone more amazing then you right now." That was definetley me trying to be a helpless romantic. "Thank you. Shall we go?" I nodded my head yes, and he led me to the car. He opened the door for me, like a gentlemen, and then rode off. We got to the movie theater in record time, with five minutes to spare. We bougtht the tickets, and the snacks. The whole night, I couldnt stop starring at him. He looked marvelous, and he was so romantic! I knew in my heart, that I was starting to fall in love. After the movie, we laughed and made jokes all the way to my house. I didnt want this  night to end. In a way, it felt like a perfect dream come true. After a while, we came up on my house. He parked the car, I got my roses, and he walked me to the door. We stood there looking at eachother. It was like one of those movies where the girl stalls to get inside her house, hoping that the boy likes her enough to kiss her good night. Honestly, I wasnt worried that I'd have to stall, and I was right. All of sudden, in no time at all, he leaned for a kiss. I leaned in too, and it happend. The second longest kiss we'd ever had together, but I was sure this one was longer. Soon after five minutes, our lips unlocked, and we both felt satisfaction. "Well, I had better get inside," I said, " we do have school tomorrow. Plus, I dont think I will get any sleep." He nodded and smiled. " Yeah, I dont think I will get any sleep either." I looked at him puzzeled. " Why," I asked. " I will be too busy thinking about you." I stared at him. I was stuck. I was falling more nd more in love with him every minute. "Well," I started, " I'll be thinking of you too." We both smiled, and then said goodnight. He waited in his car until I was inside my house. Then, when I looked out the window, he was gone like a flash of light. I breathed a heavy breath of love, and went to the kitchen. I found a vase, put my roses in water, and then took them up to my room. I set them down on my dresser, and stared at them, remebering everything. I laied down on my bed. Suddely, my mom came in. " Hey sweetheart! How do you feel?" I looked at her and did another heavy sigh of love, and then replied: "I am in love."
