Half A World Away [H.S]

05. AUG 14TH part 2

Here is another 5000 words chapter.

I checked myself on the mirror for the 5th time, trying to make sure everything was perfect, hair, makeup and outfit, as I had a white tight mini dress, with blue heels, I wore my hair straight fat, natural makeup with a nude lip liner.

I grab the small purse I had picked to use with this outfit, and place my wallet and phone in it.

It was 8:45pm, I had asked Mike to pick up Jeremy at 8:20, so they could pick me up at 8:40 for the dinner reservation at 9pm. Was I running late? Yes, but it was fashionable late, a girl can never be on point for her first date with the guy, we gotta make them wait.

I was 5 minutes late, and if I looked at myself in the mirror once again I knew I would change into another dress, so before doing so, I rushed out of the room, fast pasting through the long hallway to the elevator.

"WOW" I hear a voice coming from my left ear, as I press the elevator button.

"Hey Niall" I look back, seeing who it was.

"You look really good" He walked in my direction

'Thank you" I smiled tilting my head and doing a small spin. "A girl gotta try sometimes" I joked.

"What's the special occasion ?" He asked, getting in the elevator with me.

"A date" I tell him,without giving too much information.

"Can I be the date?" He asked, making me turn my head towards him, to make use he wasn't serious, but he did seem serious.

"I don't think you are dressed up for a date" I try to make it funny, taking away the awkwardness from the space.

The elevator announced it had arrived on the main floor, and before its door could open, I stood next to Niall "...Maybe one day, when you dressed for it"  he had similar clothes from earlier on, which were gym shorts and a hoodie.

I walked out of the elevator, the lobby was filled with people checking in and others just hanging out there. Niall was a few steps behind me, walking down the same straight line to the main entrance, once we both got closer to the door, he speeded up his pest, reaching to the doorknob, giving me access through it.

The flash lights, and camera up on my face made me feel uncomfortable, covering my face, trying to watch where I was going, I took a few steps down the sidewalk into the car, the same car Jeremy was in.

"Heyyy" I smiled at the gorgeous guy that sat next to me in the car.

"Hey..." He giggles "... You look..." He took a second to look at me, head to toe "...Gorgeous, I didn't know I had to dress up" I could tell her was just as nervous as me.

"Thank you, and you look amazing, I just haven't played dress up in a while" I joked, making him laugh.

It was a joke, but also reality, I haven't been on a date in lord know how long, and even when I was on a full on relationship with Timothy that lasted 2 years, we didn't go on fancy dates, it was mainly parties and clubs. I don't even remember stressing out about wanting to look good for a special someone, because once Timothy and I got together, we already knew each other, we grew up together, our mothers in fact were best friends who got pregnant at the same time, and all our lives we were expected to be together.
