From good to bad

It's Friday and tonight was my first official date with Brody other than our beach in counter but that wasn't an official date.
I'm extremely nervous and have no idea what to wear to a fancy restaurant.

"Tanner come here for a sec!" I shouted
It was silence for a minute then he shouted back.
"Get mom to help you for this one I know nothing about fancy stuff!" He shouted back
I let out a loud sigh and a jogged down stairs to the living room where my mamma was watching "the goonies" while eating pop corn.
"Mamma?" I said softly as I ran over to the couch and plopped down over the edge and swung my legs over.
"Yes love?" She nodded
"I need major help?" I whined
She looked at me and got up instantly. She grabbed my hand and practically dragged me up the stairs into my room.
She let go of my arm and put her hands on her hips and she scanned my closet.
She pulled out three outfits: a black skin tight knee length work skirt, red long sleeved lace top with black ankle boots.
A black skin tight thigh length strapless dress with lace and bedazzling along the side and black heels with straps.
And a white knee length strapless dress with silk and bling on the hood line and beige heels.
I looked at her like she was crazy for picking out skirts and dresses and she gave me a sarcastic smile and handed them to me.
I tried on the first out fit and she instantly shook her head and shooed me away into the bathroom again.
I tried on the second outfit and she covered her face with her hands laughing.
I tried on the third and final out fit and she sighed and flopped down on my bed.

"Mamma I don't wear this kind of stuff for a reason...it's not...me" I sighed
"I know baby girl" she sighed on more time and got up and stood in front of me running my arms in a comforting way.
"What do u wanna do?" She asked
"I'll take another look in my closet" I huffed
"I'll help" tanners voice crept behind us which made us jump.
He started laughing when he saw me in the white dress with the beige heels.
"You need my help more than I thought" he snickered
"Shut up" mamma laughed

He took a step in front of my closet and crossed his arms as mamma and I sat on the bed.
He pulled my red mid-thigh high bell skirt, black strapless top, white work blouse, black panty hoes and black heels.
I tried on the out fit and walked out of the bathroom.
My brother had a smile on his face and his arms still crossed, my mom was tearing up and fanning her face.
She came over and gave me a hug.
I let go of her embrace and went to go do my hair and make up.
I ended up curling my hair and taking my bangs and pinning them back into a poof.

The door bell rang and my mom yelled she got it. I heard the door open and close and some quiet chattering.
I walked quietly over to the top of the stairs and looked down into the kitchen, Brody looked around and noticed me at the top of the stares and made a double take. His mouth dropped and my mom slapped his arm lightly. He shut his mouth and started blushing.
I made it to the bottom of the stairs and Brody and I were face to face.
At that moment I saw things in Brody I never saw before. His green eyes were piercing into mine, his soft lips were pinker, his brown hair was even darker and his black suit fitted him perfectly.
He slipped my hand Into his and we headed out the door to start our walk to the restaurant.

We got to the restaurant and as soon as we opened the door my jaw dropped in awe.
The chandelier hung in the middle of the room leaving a pink shiner in the room. The booths were covered in red velvet sued on the seats and the waiters were dressed up in suit and apron. People sitting at booths and laughing while champagne is being poured into their glasses and food being placed swiftly in front of them.
The lady came up to the front desk and ushered us to a booth.

After 5 minutes she came back with our drinks and food.
"So...how's it going? What have you been up to?" Brody asks
"You sound like a relative who hasn't seen me in a month..." I laugh
"Oh shut up I'm serious!" Brody giggled
"Well if you must know the truth...things are good and bad." I sigh
"And why do u say that?" He asks while crossing his arms on the table.
"Well my brother is constantly sick but him and I are still really close and we have our dance break outs here and there and we always have fun around the house no matter what." I smirk
"Interesting..." Brody smiles
"What about you? Huh? How are things at home?" I sign loudly
" same as you" he shrugs
"You dance around your house with ur family?" I raise an eye brow
" no!" He laughs
"It's just good and bad I'm a little distant from my parents and siblings but we have a laugh and a family night here and there" Brody shrugs again
"Sounds interesting" I giggle
"So...dance break outs eh?" He laughs
"I regret telling you now!" I shake my head laughing
"No, no it's fine I actually think it's kind of cute..."
Brody sent an adorable smile to me and we finished our supper and left.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We got to my path way to the door and he stopped me before I went up the path.
He grabbed my wrist lightly and spun me around and close to him.
"For starters...you looked absolutely beautiful tonight. Second...I had an amazing time. And three..." Brody slowly leaned in and we kissed.
Nothing heated and nothing dull...it was enough to send shivers down my body and fireworks to go off in my stomach.
