second chance

I LIKE YOU

When it was time I immediately put the dress and realised that it looked better on me. I quickly did my hair and makeup and hair before grabbing my bag and slowly walking out of the room. When I went out of the house, I realised that Zack had already arrived. After receiving the dress, my opinion on Zack increased drastically. Yes, I was that easy to bribe. I quickened my place and entered the car. " Zack," I looked at him. He wore a black suit with a blue shirt and tie that matched my dress." You are wearing different colours today," I said because he always wears all black. He looked at his tie and nodded "oh! Thankyou for the dress I really like it." I said with a smile" also I didn't see any logo. Who designed this dress?" I asked."I did," he answered." You did this?" I asked not believing what he said, he nodded " I wanted to surprise my future wife,"
" So you are saying I am your future wife?" I asked him, he furrowed his eyebrows while staring at me " that does not make sense. You are Zack Sullivan. There is no way you would marry a person like me," I said
" What type of person are you?"
" I'm an amazing person... but... You.. "
I was quite confident in myself. I had a good family background, I was pretty, smart, rich and had a good personality. However,Infront of Zack my confidence decreased. After all we were on two completely different levels.
"What is wrong with me?" He asked
"Nothing.... You are just took perfect. You are joking right? There is no way you can like someone like me," I said.
The car stopped Infront of the hotel and from inside the car, I could see flashing lights. There were no reporters which meant it was completely private. Zack took off his seat belt and sighed " but I like you," he said. After that he got out of the car  and walked around to open my door. I froze at what I had just heard and broke out of it when I heard the door open. I looked at him and started asking myself questions like this guy like me? Am I really that attractive? Do I like him? Will I  marry him?

He leaned forward and a cool minty entered my nose. I leaned back to my chair. I watched as he took off my seatbelt and grabbed onto my hand. In the next few seconds he led me into the large hotel and at once everyone in the large hotel turned to look at us. I blinked a few times and tried to concentrate on other things. Right now my goal was to get some connections. So I could ask Zack about what he said in the car later. I wrapped my hand around Zack is hand and we entered together. Although I really wanted to eat the food on the table, I felt a bit embarrassed to just get a plate next to Zack. To my surprise he picked up a plate of strawberry cream cake. He grabbed the fork and sliced the cake. Holding it up to my mouth. I raised one of my eyebrows, but obediently opened my mouth. When the soft and sweet cake entered my mouth. I smiled happily because the cream was my favourite part. The food won me over so I grabbed a plate from Zack and continued eating  while he just smiled and watched me eat.

Zack's pov
I stood up and went Infront of her, placed one hand behind my back and stretched my other hand with my palm facing up. I bowed down and asked " Would you like to dance with me?"

IRIS'S POV
I tilted my head and placed my hand onto him. He led me to the dance floor and gently placed his hand onto my waist. I placed my hand onto his shoulder and looked up into his eyes. Pretty good so far he was more romantic than Matt. We began to dance. I had taken dance lessons before so I was pretty smooth on the floor. I managed to cooperate with Zack very well, he moved at the perfect speed. Even with my heels I only reached his shoulder. We were the only ones dancing because people started to form a circle to watch us. Their stares made me feel uncomfortable because everyone at the party was extremely powerful and influencial. I felt my body tense up when my mind wondered off. Zack changed my direction and pulled my body to the other side. I was not focused on the dance that I accidentally stepped on Zack is foot and lost my balance. My eyes widened as my hand let go of Zack is shoulder. I bit my lips together and instinctively closed my eyes. However, Zack is hand tightened a little around my waist and pulled my hand to prevent me from falling. At that moment the music ended. The audience broke out into an applause and I slowly blinked my eyes open. I looked at Zack and quickly stood up "thankyou," I said genuinely. He smiled and wrapped his hand around my waist as we walked out the dance floor together. A man and woman approached us. The man looked like he was in his late forties while the woman looked like she was in her early twenties. The woman looked familiar, but I could not remember who she was. "Mr. Sullivan dances well," the man spoke his hands around the girl. The girl looked at me in disgust. I raised an eyebrow.
" Who is your companion today?" The man asked.
" She is my girlfriend," Zack answered. The girl looked looked surprised.
" Hi, I am Iris Carter It is nice to meet you." I shook his hand. I suddenly felt the air become cold in the room. I turned to look at Zack who looked gloomy. This man was unpredictable. I excused myself and went back to eat cake. " Shall we," I heard Zack say when I finished my piece of cake. "You are not talking to the old man?"I asked.
" I missed you," I smiled and wrapped my hand around his hand.
