| Savanna |

I decided on taking another shower even though I had one in the morning, I just thought I'd give my body a quick wash so that I smelled fresh and looked fresh, legs and all if you know what I mean. I got out of the shower and moisturised my body as if there were no tomorrow. I had to blow dry my hair and not let it air dry because there was no chance it would dry in time for when Jason came to pick me up. And he did warn me not to be late.

I did my makeup before drying my hair and I went for a soft glam. I already had a set of classic eyelash extensions which meant any eyeshadow was glam eyeshadow because of the wispy locks on my eyes.

I now stood in front of my bathroom mirror, oversized t shirt on as I watched my mom straighten the back of my hair for me. I always ended up missing out clumps of my hair and it was so annoying to see so I made sure my mom straightened it all out for me.

"So, where is he taking you?" She asked.

"Umm I'm not sure yet, a fancy dinner most likely" I responded, remembering the outfit.

I was in love with it.

"With those diamonds, I'm sure it's going to be more than fancy" She replied making me grin. I hadn't stopped grinning to be honest, I was just so excited to finally go on a date with Jason again.

"Right. You're done. Now go and get dressed" my mom said, excitement in her voice. I nodded, rushing off out of my bathroom before I picked up the bag which had the dress in it and took it in to my closet which is where I set it down. I took of my clothes before I carefully slipped in to the dress, not wanting to risk any tears of its delicate fabric. Once I had it on, I turned and looked at myself in the mirror, quite possibly almost crying because of how beautiful it was.

It fit me like a glove, hugging my curves in all the right places and the colour I felt fit so well with my skin tone. It was probably the best item of clothing I now owned, and I didn't even pick it.

I left my closet to meet my mom who sat on my bed but as soon as she took a look at me, she stood up from the bed, her mouth parting, "Wow" she whispered.

I smiled approaching her, "Do you like it?" I asked.

"Sav, honey, you look so beautiful" My mom gushed as she looked at the dress and back at me.

"Thank you mom" I grinned as she pulled me in for a hug. She was so soppy, I loved it. "I'm so glad you are happy. Do you remember the first time I met Jason? I never thought a year later I'd be imaging your wedding"

I laughed shaking my head as she pushed my hair behind my shoulders.

"Let me put the necklace on you" She said, picking up the necklace from its box before I turned around. I pulled my hair forward to make it easier for her before I felt the cold metal hit my skin, but it was diamonds, I wasn't complaining.

"There" she muttered as I walked over to the mirror to look at the shiny piece on my neck that I just didn't deserve but I loved so much. I smiled, "I'm in love. Is it possible to be in love with a piece of jewellery?" I asked turning to look at my mom as I traced the necklace with my fingers.

"Yes, that's why  I have a collection and not a man" she joked making me laugh.

Our heads turned to face the door as the sound of the doorbell going off echoed throughout the house.

Suddenly, I felt like we were going on our first date and my stomach started doing flips. I pulled on my heels as my mom left the room, I followed after and since she was not wearing 6 inch heels like me, she was at the door before me. As the door opened and I reached the bottom step, I looked up to see Jason approach me.

I couldn't help but stare at him, he wore a black suit and even though I had seen him plenty times in a suit, there was something special about him wearing it just for me and our date.

I watched as his mouth parted, he looked as if he had seen his favourite food walking towards him because his eyes lit up.

"Wow" I just about heard him breathe out.

"She looks beautiful right Jason?" My mom gushed in the back making me laugh as he stood in front of me.

"More than beautiful, Miss Montano" He continued as he took my hands in his as he pressed his lips against mine.

I grinned, "Well, you did get me this outfit" I replied.

"You like the necklace?" He asked, he spoke to me as if I was the only person in the room, somehow. "I love it" I smiled.

"Okay before you go, I have to take some pictures of you guys" My mom announced making both of us turn to look at her. "Moooom" I dragged out as Jason laughed.

"Sav! Just a couple! You need to show your kids how cool you were" She said as she held her phone up. I stood next to Jason, placing my arm around his waist as he pulled me close, placing his hand at the small of my back, letting my mom have her time to take the photos without them turning out blurry.

I looked up at Jason, seeing him smiling at the camera, his dimple popping out I couldn't help but smile up at him because he was just so handsome. He looked down at me catching me looking up at him as he smirked, I felt his hand slip down to my ass, grabbing it making me instantly look over at my mom who was now busy now looking at her phone, probably going through the tons of pictures she had taken.

I looked up at him as he smirked knowing full well my mom couldn't see him literally grabbing my ass which made me shake my head, laughing at how impulsive he was.

"We should go now" I announced taking Jason's hand and dragging him along.

"Right, have fun! I love you" My mom smiled as I kissed her cheek.

"See you soon, Miss Montano" and with a final hug, we left the house.

Outside on the drive was Jason's shiny black Rolls Royce that he never really used unless it was a business type thing since he couldn't really speed down the road with it as it was such a classy car. He had other cars for that purpose. And when he stood next to it, shiny watch and jewellery, suited up and looking so classy, I was sure I had fallen in love all over again.
