Spy Love

Date Night:Part 1

"Good. Do you wanna go out with me on Friday night?"
----------------------------------------------
I wake up with a smile on my face because it's finally Friday. Also known as the night of my date with Liam. After Liam asked me out last night I couldn't stop thinking about him. I must have been in a daydream because I don't remember what happened after the Lacrosse Game.

I'm pretty sure that I saw my Dad and Erica...canoodling on the couch. I just ignored them and went upstairs.

I hop out of bed and skip to my closet. I pick out some grey skinny jeans, a Nickelback shirt, a grey cardigan and a pair of pale brown ankle boots. I put silver hoop earrings in and put on my Mom's wedding ring. I curl the ends of my hair and look in the mirror.

I hope today goes by fast because I can't wait for my date tonight. I wonder what he has planned...

As soon as the bell rings for end of day, I race to the bus. I sit next to Tyler who's reading another book. I quickly grab it from him and cover my face with it. Way to act natural.

I've been able to avoid Liam for the whole day and I don't want to ruin it. When he picks me up later, I want him to be excited and not,"I saw you earlier." I peek over the book and see Liam walking onto the bus with James and a few of his other friends.

He looks my way and I quickly duck back down. I can hear him chuckle and I grin a little. I peek back over the book and see that Liam isn't there anymore. I suddenly feel a tap on my shoulder and jump just a tiny bit. I can feel a breath just underneath my ear.
"You okay?" Liam asks.
I nod my head and turn it a little to the side. Liam stays the same way and our lips are so close to touching. I resist the urge to close the gap between us.
"I'll come pick you up at 7."

What to wear? What to year? At the moment I'm pacing in my room in nothing but a towel. I glance at my clock and see that it's 18:34. 26 minutes until Liam comes to pick me up.

There's a knock on my door and I open it just a little bit. I'm surprised to see Erica standing there with a hopeful smile on her face. She's holding a hanger with a protective sheet over it.

I stare at her. What does she want?
"Hello!" She says in her British accent.
I force a smile on my face and open my door a bit wider. She steps past me and walk to my bed, placing the mysterious sheet on my bed.
"I know how hard it is to get dressed for a first date, so I bought an outfit that should be just perfect. Liam told me what you guys are going to do."

This time I really smile. She really is trying hard to get on good terms with me. She makes her way towards the door and is about to close it but she quickly says,"I hope you have a wonderful time. Liam is a very nice boy but if he hurts you in any way...just tell me and I'll be sure to kick his ass."
I laugh I a little bit and she closes the door behind her.

I rush over to my bed and carefully take the outfit out. It's nothing really special but it certainly is very pretty. There's a long sleeved maroon tank-top sweater and a high waisted black skirt. I go over to my closet and get a pair of black tights and brown heeled ankle boots.

I quickly put the outfit on and fix my hair. I check in the mirror and flash a smile. I look really pretty. I hope Liam thinks the same...

I go down the stairs and see my Dad and Erica sitting on the couch watching the news. Erica turns around and gasps with a small smile. My Dad also turns around and shakes his head.
"No. No. No. You can't wear that."
"What?" I stare at him in disbelief.
"Sweetie, come on now. Don't you think she looks pretty?" Erica says.
My Dad nods his head and gets up. He walks over to me and gives me a bear hug.
"I think she looks beautiful."
