(18+) The Five Senses

chapter nine- the man is a poet

As i got home and unlocked the door, i leant against it and gave out a big sigh

"What just happened?" I rub my forehead

I shake my head and drop my back on the sofa, rummidging through it until i can find the book that Michael gave me

"Ok Michael.." i turn the cover to reveal the first chapter and begin to read.

*3 hours later*

A knock at the door startles me and i rub my eyes

Damn, i fell asleep.

I take the book from my chest as i must have fallen asleep reading it

The door knocks again

"Coming" i shout

As i open the door theres a man standing there with a big box

"Erm, i think you have the wrong house"

He reads out my address

"Isabella Hughes"

"Oh, maybe not then. Yep thats me" i smile

The man hands me the big box and nods at me

"Enjoy your day"

"Thank you"

The man walks off my drive and gets into his car

I take the box inside and kick the door closed with my foot

I place the box on the sofa and examine it

I look for a sender address but there isnt one

Confused, i take the lid off the box and look inside

The box is filled with tissue paper, as if theres something wrapped inside of it all

I take sticker off the crease of the tissue paper and begin to unwrap it.

I gasp and take a step back

No way is that meant for me. Who on earth has sent this?

I grab hold of whats in the box carefully and take it out. Revealing what it is.

A long figure hugging black dress that falls to the floor, with crystals hand crafted all over it. Its absolutely stunning. But who...

I look into the what i thought was an empty box that reveals an envelope that had been under the dress.

I place the dress on the back of the sofa, being careful not to crease it

I pick up the envelope and open it, and taking out the piece of paper thats inside.

I smile as i read in shock:

Hand picked and nearly as beautiful as she
A dress that you may like That flows down way past the knee
Dazzling and a material that will kiss her gorgeous hips
Try this on for size Miss, and be ready by half 6. Love, M x

I bite my lip to stoo myself from grinning too much. But i cant help it!

I look at the clock and see thst it is now 5pm

"Shit! I need a shower!" I out rhe lid bsck in the box and race uostairs with the dress over my arm, being careful not to trip over it.

I place it on a hanger and hang it over my door, smiling taking one last look at it before i get in the shower.

Skipping into the shower, i turn it on.

I wait for the water to turn hot and pick out a playlist to jam to.
