It was 6:30 pm already and had I not yet decided what I was going to wear on my date with Alex. When I thought of giving up, I heard a knock on my door.
"Yes nica! Finally! I need your help. I can't decide what to wear for my date with Alex today."I said.

"Well what am I here for babe" Veronica replied.

She went out of my room to bring a dress back in. It was a black one-shoulder dress just a little above my knee.
I went to washroom to get dressed, when I came out I saw Veronica looking at me as if I was a cheese cake.

"What, Veronica?" I asked.
"You look really good" she replied.
"Thanks " I said, blushing a lil.
I just hope Alex will like my dress.

I don't why but I just couldn't stop thinking about what Aaron told me earlier, I know I decided I'm going to trust Alex but something in my mind said that I should listen to Aaron.

"Alina!?" Veronica broke my reverie.
"What are you thinking Alina?" she asked.

"Nothing, just a little nervous." I replied.

I should just forget about it, now. I'm gonna a good date with the guy I've liked since I was a kid. I'm not gonna spoil just because some guy told me otherwise.

I heard the door bell. God! This is it, my date with Alex. I'm going to have a good night. enjoy! And hope that Aaron just minds his own business.
Mom called me to come down stairs.

I walked down the stairs minding my steps so that I don't trip. I see him looking at me. I just hope I'm looking fine.
"Wow! Alina you look beautiful." he said looking at me.
I blushed a little" umm.. thanks Alex"

"You guys look so good together" my mom said being all dramatic.
" Mom!" I said in a little high pitched voice.
" Okay okay. Alex bring her home before 11 " she said in a stern voice.
" Okay mrs. grey" Alex replied calmly

We walked towards his car and he opened the door for me. I have him a smile and sat in the passenger seat. He quickly got to the drivers seat and started the car.
"You look beautiful Alina" he said glancing me look while driving.
Oh boy! My cheeks got a shade darker."umm.. thanks"

" I love it when you stammer" he said with a giggle.
" I do not!" I responded
" Ya sure ,sweetheart"
Was it just me or we both got awkward on that term " sweetheart" nobody ever called me that.

" So, where are we going Alex?" I asked

"Umm you'll see in a bit"
" Ohkay."
In 10 minutes we outside sea-view restaurant. It had the most amazing view and I had never been there. I was about to open my door, when Alex did it for me. I smiled again and said thank you this time. Why was he being so sweet to me and then again Aaron's words got me thinking what if he was just playing with my feelings.
We walked in the restaurant when he held and guided me to the other side, we came to a place just outside the restaurant, which the perfect view of the sea and I just got lost in the beauty. while I was admiring it someone cleared their throat.
I looked in the direction.
"Alina if you'll keep looking we'll have to have our dinner standing here"
"Ah.. sorry I just got lost" Alina, focus. don't do this or else he'll just leave you alone and run.
We sat on the table and waiter came in to take out order
"I'll have turkey with some diet coke" I ordered mine
" I'll take the same" Alex said smiling at me . I returned the smile.
He looks so good while smiling.
"umm..so tell me something about yourself?" He asked
"About me? We'll I love black, I can eat food all the time.. umm I love singing and dancing, that's all I guess.. Now you turn."

" I like bikes and I love to eat too."

"Would you like to dance?" He asked looking at me
"Sure" I replied with a smile
We were on the dance floor. he put his hands on my waist and I kept my hands on his shoulder. I don't know why but I just forgot about the people around, it just felt so surreal. Nobody ever made me feel this way.
The song thinking out loud by ed sheeran was playing and let me tell you it's best song ever. okay I know we change our choices every week or so but who cares I just love this song.
After dancing for quite some thing we came back to our seats.
The waiter put our dishes on the table and I gave him a Smile for the service.
We ate our dinner in silence and then I excused myself to go to the washroom
Oh! This is hell of a date I talked to myself. I just hope things go fine between Alex and me unlike what Aaron told me earlier.
I came back and sat on my seat Alex was smiling at me.
"Why are you smiling? "
"You look really pretty."
I blushed on his comment
"Umm... thanks"
" Alina you're so innocent" he giggled.
He paid the bill and we started walking out of the restaurant.
He opened the car door for me and I smiled at him
The ride back home was silent as probably we were tired.
I was about to get out of the car when he stopped in front of my house.
"Wait."
He then got out of the car and opened the door for me
" Stop being so sweet alex" I said while smiling.
" We'll you deserve it, beautiful "
And with that my checks turned crimson colour. oh god I hope he didn't notice.
He walked me to front door.
"So I guess I'll meet you at school."
I nodded. he bent down to maybe kiss me on the lips but the coward I am, I kissed his checks and ran inside my house.
" Bye Alina" he said as I was behind the door. I leg out the breath I didn't know I was holding.
I went up to my room and jumped on my bed. My first actual date with Alex

Oh god! Why does this feel so magical.
