We watched the movie together and it was actually really funny. He always made a funny/stupid remark on how cliche and horrific the movie was and I would just roll my eyes.
At the end scene when he comes running to kiss her-awww it just melts my heart.
"Alright April, come on let's go and get changed and then head of" He got of the couch and switched of the TV from the side, I complained as he looked at me briefly.
"I can't be bothered" I said complaining to him, I don't know why but I forgot about what happened and was getting really comfortable being around Mr Benson.
"April" He said sternly like dad does with me.
"Bryan" I said back in the same tone of voice, he sighed and stood a few feet away from me.
"We'll get late" He said like a baby.
"But we will be fashionably late" He shook his head from side to side.
"Please"
"Fine, only because you let me watch that movie and because you are really nice"" I got up from the sofa and yawned stretching out my arms.
"I'm not nice" He said quietly, I walked over to him and stood so he could look at me.
"Who says you aren't nice?"
"Are you seriously kidding me, I put you through hell these past few months and last year. Trust me April I'm a really bad person"
"Well you have clearly changed and change is good now come on" He gave me a small smile, he walked before me so I followed him.
He walked into a bedroom which looked like his. I'm not surprised that he is very neat and clean.
"This is the dress your mom gave with the jewerelly, makeup and heels. You can change here, I'll go change in the other room"
"Oh I'll go and change in the other room, I don't mind" He shrugged and shook his head as a no.
"It's cool, I'll just grab my stuff" He took out a white shirt and trousers from his drawer and walked past me shutting the door behind him.
Looks like I need to get changed now.
***
Might I say the dress fitted me perfectly, I already wore the heels and makeup and well the oter stufff on but I was having a bit of a difficulty putting the back zipper up.
My arms were hurting me from stretching them to much.
"Apr-" I turned around and saw that Mr Benson was standing in front of the door as he just looked at me.
Oh he must have throught I ain't dressed yet but he was. He had a white untucked button down shirt on with black trousres with a loose black tie. "I'm sorry I never knew.....I'll just go" He was about to head out.
"Wait" He stopped in his tracks as he turned around to look at me.
"Yeah?"
"I need a little help with the...um...zipper" He looked at my eyes and then began making his way over to me.
One of his hand settled on my shoulder and the other began pullung the zipper up, his fingers were brushing against my bare back skin as he went up and up.
Electricty no sparks just went through me and that feeling of butterflies in my stomach.
I looked straight and looked in the mirror to see him doing a button at the top, his eyes caught mine through the mirror. Unexpectedly, his hand fell to the pony that I did he started taking the pony out and my hair fell on my shoulders.
"Leave your hair opened it looks much better" He said lowly. He walked out of the room grabbing the blazer that was on the bed.
Oh my god.....what just happened?
***
"Just ignore my dad if you see him" Mr Benson said as we were making our way to his mansion of a house.
"Don't worry, I'll try my best" iI told him with an encouraging smile. He knocked on the door and his mom opened it. She saw me and surprised me with a hug, I had to kneel a bit because of how tall i was and how short she was.
"Oh April sweetie I'm so sorry about what George had said, who knows what was running through his mind that time" She said regretfully.
"It's ok, he was just looking out for Bryan" I told her, she forced a smile and then hugged her own son.
"Sorry, why don't you come in" She stepped at the side to let us go through, Mr Benson got hold of my hand and steered us inside.
His parents house were huge like I've never been in a mansion before but this looks even better than it does in the movies.
"You look really happy" Mr Benson said looking at the smile on my lips.
"I am your house looks even bigger and better than the ones you get in the movies" Him and his mom both kaughed at what I said.
"Well come on I'll introduce you to some of my friends, Bryan shoo" She said pushing him, I laughed as she grabbed hold of my hand.
"Don't torture her mom!" He said from the distance.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone torrures you" I laughed even more at what she said.
"See those ladies over there, they always brag about how pretty their son's girlfriends are well I got you and you can beat them" I smiled at her.
"ILet's go and test it then" I told her, we both walked confidently to these ladies and they looked well really stuck-up, with the dresses they had on.
"Ladies" They all turned their attention towards her and looked at me as well.
"Oh Elizabeth you found my son a future wife, you didn't have to" She said grabbing hold of my hand and dragging me towards her. I looked at Mr Bensons mom as she looked at the lady really angrily.
"Actually she is with me" Mr Bensons mom grabbed hold of my arm and I skidded towards her.
"No she's way to pretty to stick around with you" The lady pulled me harder towards her and my wrsit started hurting.
"Well she is with me" Pull.
"To ad cause I'm taking her away" Pull
"You're a girl stealer" Pull
"And you can't find any women for your son"
"That's because he finds them himself!"
"What is going on here?!" I heard Mr Benson yelled, everyone else was to engrossed in their conversation to notice excpet us lot. Both of their deathing grip left my wrist as I went running to him, with my arms wrapped around his neck, he seemed shock but acted with me by putting his arms around my waist.
"I'm trying to make the other lady look bad" I whispered in his ear.
"Alright" He whispered back, I took my arms away from his neck and put his hand in mine, we walked back and stood in front of the group of ladies.
"Hello mom's um friends, I'd like you to meet my girlfriend April" They all looked shocked, I gave them a smile ever since I could barel lift my wrist. His mom came and stood next to me.
"Yes, she is my son's girlfriend and future fiance and wife" She said. Me and Benson smirked and what she said.
"Now if you will excuse me, my mother and girlfriend will go now" He said, we turned around and burst out laughing.
"Did you see their faces?" Mr Benson's mom said laughing.
"But you didn't have to pull her, look how red April's wrist are gone now" He held my wrist and smoothed it with his thumb.
"Awww this is really true love, your father was never the romantic one I guess I did teach you well then" She said to him. "Oh and by the way I entered you both for the couple question thing ok, I got to go to the rest of the guests" Mr Benson cursed underneath his breath.
"What happened?"
"Why did she enter us for the quiz?" He said annoyed.
"It doesn't matter.....but what exactly do you do?"
"They ask us questions like what is your partenr's favourite colour and stuff like that. We hardly know anything about each other" He said irritatingly.
"What do we do?" Great I am panicking now and when I panicke I sweat.
"I know some of the questions" He said beginning to think. Then I thought of his favourite colour, that's easy it's green.
"I know your favourite colour is green" I offered, he looked at me with a blank face.
"How do you know my favourite colour?" He asked confused. Wait....how do I know this favourite colour? That's....that's impossible.
"I.....I don't.....I don't know I just saw your eye colour and it just came to m mind"
"Alrihgt...um...what's your favourite colour?"
"Gold" He smiled as he looked at my dress.
"That will be easy to remember" He said with a smirk.
"Ok. what other questions are there?" He opened his mouth but just shut it again.
"I have no idea but it's ok we'll just have to guess them, it's not like half of the people who are entering will remember everything from the beginning" I nodded my head agreeing with him.
"Can't we like drop out of it?"
"I don't think so"
