I tried to maintain a smile as I knocked on Dany's door. It flew open and Dany was standing before me in a bright green floral dress and her hair pulled back into a high ponytail. She seemed to glow, and I couldn't believe how beautiful she looked. I cursed myself as my thoughts wandered to Evan and how beautiful he looked earlier. Dany cocked her head to the side as I stood before her, speechless.
"Do I have something on my face?" She screeched, running back inside.
"No!" I yelled. "You look absolutely gorgeous. I was stunned!"
The floorboards squeaked as I stepped in her house. She was frantically checking her teeth.
"Dany... you're gorgeous," I repeated, wrapping my arms around her waist.
She giggled and leaned into me. Her body warmed mine. I loved how warm she always was, and how she fit perfectly in my arms. It was as if she was supposed to be my other half. We stood there for a while just staring at each other in the mirror. It was a moment that I wanted to last forever. Why did she have to be so amazing? It made it harder for me to let her go.
"I got you something," I murmured reaching into my pocket.
"Oh Mel! I thought we weren't going to do that."
"It's okay. I don't need any object in return. Just your sweet face will suffice," And right then I thought I truly meant it. Maybe I only needed Dany. Maybe she would suffice.
I pulled out a box and handed it to her. Her face immediately turned red. I could see her hands shaking as she lifted the lid. Inside was a real Tiffany necklace. It had a small butterfly hanging off the chain. The glow of the metal lit up Dany's precious face. Her hand flew up to her mouth in disbelief. I chuckled and hugged her as she started to tear up.
"Mel, oh Mel, this is beautiful. How much did this cost you?"
"Money is irrelevant. I only need to see your lovely smile."
"I love you!"
The words hung suspended in the air as I took in what she had just said. I love you. I love you. My mind was suddenly blank. What could I say back to her? Okay? Thank you? Something was stopping me from replying. I couldn't reply, but I did love her. I loved how she was my match. She fit with me perfectly. She would make my family happy; she would make society happy. She had so much warmth. She was always there for me. I should be yelling that I love her. I should be flying a plane and screaming my love for her to the world. I should be in love with her.
Before too much time passed, I whispered without much excitement or joy, "I love you too."
Dany did not notice the blank expression and hugged me so hard that I thought she would break my ribs.
"Let's skip dinner. We can snack later."
"What?" I said as she pulled me out the door.
Suddenly we were running. I could see my house and cursed the situation that I was getting myself into. She typed in the code to my garage and yanked me inside. Before we were even inside the house, her lips were on mine. Warm and small. Everything felt different now that I had kissed Evan. Dany was so submissive and melted into me right away. I forced open my bedroom door and pushed her onto my bed. She gave me the necklace box and I set it on my nightstand. Dany was already unbuttoning her dress and something about that small action was turning me off. I tried to shake off all my uneasy thoughts and pulled my shirt off. Dany's chest was exposed, and she had the most beautiful breasts. We had gotten about this far one other time, but this time you could tell something was different. Dany reached out for my hands and pulled me down on top of her.
