“Do you like it?” She asked sincerely, folding her arms across her chest.
“I love it!” I exclaimed, jumping up and down and hugging her again. “Gosh, I can’t repay you for this. Thank you so much!”
“No problem, sis,” she said, rolling her eyes. “Just get ready, already!”
She left the room so I could slip on the dress. I took my black boot wedges and slipped it on, tying the laces. I stood up and did a 360, inspecting myself in the mirror.
“Are you done?” Kelly called out. “Can I come in?”
“Yes,” I said, breathlessly, freaking out at my appearance.
The door opened and Kelly’s jaw dropped as well. “Damn girl, Weston won’t be able to keep his hands off of – “
“Danny,” My mom called from downstairs. “Weston’s here.”
I began to walk in place, feeling the butterflies in my stomach. Nervousness took the better part of me and I couldn’t find the right words to say. To make it worse, I doubted myself. Should I pretend I was sick? Should I go down? Would if it’s really awkward and I do something embarrassing like Kelly?
“Danny,” Kelly said sternly, grabbing my shoulders. “It’s time to go. Just be confident.”
I nodded slowly, taking shaky small steps until I was downstairs. Weston’s back was facing towards me and my mom was on the couch across from him, her eyes meeting mine. She gasped, her eyes beginning to tear up. “Oh darling, you’re so beautiful.”
Weston turned around slowly, his eyes meeting mine. My heart stopped as I saw his eyes shining with happiness as he took in my appearance. His smile was genuine as he got up from his spot on the couch as he still stared at me with admiration.
His short hair was styled messily. He had worn a blue button down, the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. Dark rinse straight fit jeans hugged his butt nicely. To finish it off, he wore black Nike shoes.
He kissed my forehead and said, “Hey Ells.”
My eyebrows shot up in surprise as I looked at him straight in the eyes. “What? No lame line like, ‘you’re beautiful’ or something?” I asked. Truthfully, I was surprised. Weston seemed like the type of guy to flatter girls on the first date.
“I have nothing to say. You left me absolutely speechless. That’s how gorgeous you are,” He said, shrugging. He went as far as to wink at me.
“Gosh, who taught you how to be so sweet?” I blushed.
He chuckled and kissed my blushing cheeks, making me blush some more. I was lucky my mom had stepped out of the room, wishing us a good time, not hovering like a normal parent. “After you, my queen,” he mocked saluted, waving his hand towards the door.
“You better believe I’m your queen,” I joked, laughing afterwards.

“Oh my gosh,” I said, eyes lighting up as I saw our destination. I literally jumped up and down in excitement. “You are the best boyfriend ever,” I shrieked, kissing his cheek as he parked in a parking stall.
He rolled his eyes. “You’re such an easy person to please. It’s just Wendy’s.”
“Is not “just” Wendy’s! You know how much I love this place,” I gasped, already getting out of his car.
I grabbed his arm and tugged him inside as fast as I could. I took a huge whiff of the smell of food inside, my heart full and content. I closed my eyes and felt like I was in heaven. “You know, you look like an idiot,” Weston whispered in my ear, tangling his fingers with mine.
