Looking For Our Stars

Our Date

Hazel Prov

I watched pudge leave, as he just gracefully walked out the door, I gazed at the door for what felt like forever. I then snapped out of it when he sent me a text, it read: "Hazel, does tonight work?" I then smiled and texted back: "Yeah! tonight is perfect! :)" I then looked around my room staring into the closet "Hmm what to wear?" I said to myself then I grabbed up my blue dress that my mother bought me when we were in Amsterdam I picked it up and I knew it was my best dress, and only dress for that fact. So I put it on and looked in the mirror, my page-boy hair cut was past page-boy and down to my chin. I really need a hair cut, I decided to brush it back. and I looked in the mirror and smiled. Pudge than texted me again: "I'm coming to pick you up now ;)" God that wink face! I than started to go down stairs putting on my blue flats.
"Hazel?" My mom said
"Yeah?" I responded
"Where are you going all dressed up?"
"Oh, I have a date,"
"really? With who?"
"Miles,"
"you mean that nice boy, okay have fun!"
Just then the doorbell ringed. I started to smile awkwardly and I opened the door. He stood there in a fine tuxedo, and handed me flower.
"There umm. Lillies." He said
"Thanks!" I said handing the flowers to my mom to put in a vase. We then headed into his car, we got in and he buckled me in. I looked up on his dashboard, and he had a small picture frame with a girl with dark brown hair, all you could see was her face, because the rest of the picture was filled with dirt like ashes.
He must have seen me eyeing the small photo, cause he looked at me than said.
"Thats Alaska," he then started to drone on and on about how she died and all. I didn't pay to much attention, i was so intrigued by dead white roses he kept on his dashboard. When he finished talking I noticed we got to the resturant.
We both went inside, and the waiter came by handing us menus, than he said.
"Our special today is sea food salad," I listened how he explained the dish, it sounded breath taking good.
"I will have one of those please!" I said
"Double that my good man!" Miles said
We than sat down, and I looked at Miles, and he looked at me.
"I know you don't really want to be here, but thanks for coming anyway." He said that and I couldn't help but blurt out.
"What do you mean? I'm happy to be here!"
"Nothing, its just I practically had to force you to come along," Miles said
"Wait, no you didn't you came into my house a.."
"And the only way you could figure out a way to get me to leave is if you agreed to go on a date with me!"
"Miles! Stop!"
"No! I'm not going to stop! You can't just start doing your Hazel thing where everything is perfect, and everyone loves you!"
"Excuse me?" I couldn't believe what he just told me here we are having a nice time and he just has to bring up all of that! I couldn't take it anymore, I had enough.
"You heard me!" He yelled. I didn't say anything, I just got up.
"We're done Miles." I than texted my mother to pick me up. I started to tear up, as I walked out of Allans. He than started to chase after me. He grabbed my shoulder in the parkinglot, I turned around and he looked at me brought me close, and kissed me. Our lips locked, as I closed my eyes.
