I sigh and rub my sweaty palms on my dress for the fifth time that night.

"Calm down Belle," Alesia tries to assure me again for the fifth time while rubbing blush on my face.

"Do you think I'm doing too much?" I move a curl behind my ear, smacking my lips together to make the gloss spread. "It's just a function for work..."

I look at Alesia through the mirror as she waltzes around me putting God knows what on my face.

"It's just a lie," she giggles, picking up the curling iron. "It's all a lie, he just wants to be with you..."

Her voice fades out when we hear a cough from the phone that was placed on the dresser. We are currently on a video call with Lynn since she couldn't make it to my house.

"...besides he told you to look pretty for him...." she continues, glancing at something beside her.

"...and also gave you a black card!" Alesia finally ends the statement, squealing like a school girl.

"Oh my God." Lynn and Alesia echo with high pitch voices.

"Oh shut up." I smack her hands away from my face before checking the time.

"Mum?" Lucy walks into the room carrying a plate of food. "Are you going on a date?"

"Well kind of baby." I get on my feet, walking to where she was while Alesia and Lynn continue their conversation. "Do you want something honey? Where's Ethan by the way?"

"He's over there in the living room doing some math examples." she rolls her eyes and I laugh.

Ethan's always been the one who loves maths while Lucy prefers anything that has to do with literature.

"Okay," I take the band on the wrist, going to style her hair. "You will both stay with Aunt Alesia this night, I'd try not to stay out too late love. I love you."

"Okay mum," she beams, looking over my dress. "You look so pretty, I hope you have fun."

I nod, reaching for my purse on the bed, giving Alesia who was busy gossiping on the phone a wave before walking into the living room.

"Ethan?" I call out, holding me heels in my hands.

I've never been an heels person and I don't think I'd ever be, but I must go all in today.

"Ethan darling?" I walk over to where he was seated, seeing his face pulled in a frown as his glasses stay perched on his nose while he stares at the paper. "Ethan!"

He startles, falling off the chair before staggering on his feet to look at me and I wanted to cry at how cute he looked. A stray strand of dirty blond hair falls into his eyes and he pushes his glasses up to hold it back.
