At 4 the door bell rang, conveniently while I was in the shower. My dad wasn't home so I was forced to ask my little sister, Harriet, to answer the door. I pleaded with her, but she kept saying no. I had no other option than to run downstairs in my towel (embarrassing much?) and open the door.
Standing in the doorway was Alice, Luke and Brandon. Alice had a dress in her hand, that was covered up. She then gave it to me while smiling and dragging me up the stairs, tugging my hand vigorously. The boys, being boys, went in the living room and started watching TV.
Harriet watched the boys like a hawk, so there was no 'funny business'.
"I said to come at 5," I conversed to Alice, who was sitting me down and planning to do my hair and makeup.
"This is going to take a long time, beauty hurts!" she said, laughing. After an hour of torture where my face was being powdered with every kind of makeup known to man, Alice finally showed me the dress.
"OMG! I can't wear that, it's way too short!" I exclaimed, my eyes widening in shock.
"It's not that short, try it on."Alice reasoned, forcefully putting the dress into my hand. However, when I put the dress on, it was a perfect fit. Alice clapped her hands in delight, jumping up and down at how beautiful I looked. She rummaged through my closet and eventually took out a pair of killer high heels. I quickly placed them on my feet. She then handed me 2 bracelets, a necklace and a bag.
"You look wonderful!" Alice commented, "Let's show the boys downstairs," My heels made the most annoying noise in the world, as I walked downstairs. Clobble clobble clunk, clobble clobble clunk.
"What do you think?" I said giving them a quick a twirl.
"You look hot!" Luke said before quickly adding "Not as hot as Alice though." He didn't want to get in trouble with Alice, so he turned around, faster than the speed of light, and tried to avoid looking at me.
"You look fine," Brandon said looking up and quickly moving his eyes back onto the TV. Rude! This took hours of torture, and that's all he could have said?
While we we watching TV waiting for Ryan, Luke's hand was around Alice's waist. It was so sweet! Throughout the entire program Brandon completely ignored me, not looking, listening or replying to anything I said or did. It was almost like he was avoiding me for some reason. This awkwardness continued until my doorbell rang.
I ran up to the door, Harrie hot on my heels. Ryan was at the door and it was bang on 7. I loved guys who wouldn't make the girl wait. He told me that this would be a night to remember.
"You look amazing! He breathed, while checking me out.Then, he placed his hands around my waist and gently kissed my cheek. He was rudely interrupted when Harriet told him to keep his hands to himself, he laughed before holding my hand and leading me to his car.
Luke stood outside waving but Brandon was standing there with his hands in his pockets, not looking interested at all.
Alice bent down through the car window and whispered, "I'll pick you up from the date if anything bad happens and tell me every single thing that happened." I nodded and rolled up the window, before smiling widely at Ryan.
Ryan took me to his house. The inside of the house was massive! They had a balcony and a grand staircase. Ryan quickly gave me a tour of his house. The kitchen was three times the size of mine! The living room was absolutely huge and he had a little posh kennel for a little puppy. His dining room was the size of my kitchen! He practically lived in a mansion!
Ryan took my coat, like the perfect gentleman, and then told me we were going to bake together (a bit unusual for a first date). I wasn't prepared at all, until he handed me an apron. We made pizza and a massive cake. It was so fun. I got flour all over my hair and my dress, but who cared? We ate the pizza and cake then snuggled close together on his coach, feeding each other bits and pieces and laughing. Ryan's arm closed around my waist.
He then took me to my house and kissed me on the cheek, waving goodbye while reversing out of the driveway.
Alice ran up to me while the boys were sleeping and asked what happened. I told her everything about how romantic and fun Ryan was. We then tiptoed to my room and watched movies in the dark.
