Ace stood up from the bed and wandered towards the bathroom to have a shower. He looked at the clock, he got forty minutes to get ready and leave.
Julie pulled the denim shorts that she was searching for. She pulled them on her legs, buttoned the shorts. She picked the black crop t-shirt that she personally designed.
She looked at herself in the full-length mirror that is present in her room. She smiled brightly loving the t-shirt. "It came out good," she said touching the digital print on her t-shirt.
It's a girl on the swing with her hair flying around as she smiled brightly looking at the sky. "Let's comb our hair, wear the shoes and leave brother," she told herself.
Ace walked out of the shower, dried his body with the towel as he walked towards his closet to get ready. He threw the towel in the laundry basket.
He pulled the rack where his inners are. He put on his boxers before going to the other side where his upper garments are. He pulled a pair of washed jeans and wore them.
He looked at the shirts, hoodies, t-shirts, sweaters, coats, jackets and all the other things. He pulled the white shirt out, wore it and then pulled a black sweater on.
He looked at himself in the full mirror before going towards the shoe wardrobe. He pulled the black shoes out and wore them.
By the time he got ready it was 12:40 pm. It will take him ten minutes to reach Battery park city where Julie's dormitory and the university is.
He sprayed his personal favourite perfume before picking his car keys, wallet and phone. Ace pushed his hair back, looked at himself for one more last time before leaving.
The boys are scattered around in the living room as Ace climbed down the steps. The boys looked at him, checked him out. Greyson drank his coffee as he checked Ace's oufit.
"Brother Ace, are you going somewhere?" Logan asked.
"Yes, I'm going out. I won't be there for the movie night," Ace spoke.
"Is brother Ace going on a secret date?" Zeke whisper asked Carl who is sitting beside him.
"Hmm, looks like that. Brother switched from hoodies and jackets to a shirt and sweater. He sprayed his perfume too, looks like he dressed up to impress someone," Carl whispered back.
"Greyson and Grant," Ace called.
"Yes, brother Ace," Grant said. Greyson simply looked at Ace.
"Take care of the boys and the game. I will be checking the results of the game. Guide them, one game," Ace said.
"Okay, brother Ace."
"Okay."
"If anyone leaves the house, just leave a text before leaving," Ace said.
"Okay." The boys said yes's and okay's.
Ace left the house while the boys teased him in the background. "Who do you think brother Ace is going to meet?" Logan asked.
"Gargi?" Rhett said.
"I don't think so. He never dressed up when he was with Gargi, I don't think he is going to meet her," Kayden said.
"Then who he is going to meet?" Zeke asked.
"Maybe someone we don't know..."
"Maybe someone who is mysterious."
"Hahaha, get back to the computers brothers. We have a game to finish," Grant said.
"Get back," Greyson said before he started walking towards the training room.
Ace drove to the dormitory block and the alley, he is not nervous but he is excited to meet Julie. It feels so quick but he cannot stop himself from meeting Julie.
Julie sat on her bed as she went through the i********: feed. She searched for Ace's account but didn't find his. She then stalked her brother's account.
"He didn't even posted new photos. These all are the photos that I have posted," she said.
Ace stopped his car near the alley, pulled his phone out and called Julie's number. He waited for her to answer the call. When she did, he smiled.
"Hey, Ace," Julie said with a smile on her face.
"Hey, I'm waiting outside the gates," Ace said.
"Cool, I will be there in five minutes," Julie said.
"Okay."
The call ended, Julie stood up from her seat. She picked her backpack and normal jacket before wandering outside her dormitory. She locked the door before leaving.
Ace unbuckled his seatbelt, opened his door and stepped out of the car. He waited Julie to come, he looked down at his outfit to make sure that the sweater didn't crumbled up.
Julie found Ace standing near his car. She slowed down her steps as she took her time checking him out. Today he isn't wearing his usual outfit, he switched it to shirt and jacket which looks good on him.
A bit formal and casual that suits the day. Ace saw Julie, he checked her out. She is wearing a t-shirt and shorts with her hair left open. The outfit suits her, Ace hummed liking her choice of clothing.
"Hey," Julie said stopping in front of Ace.
"Hey," Ace replied.
"Hmm, nice outfit. It suits you," Julie commented crossing her arms.
"Thank you," Ace replied as he felt the heat on his neck.
"Lets go, I don't want to be late," Julie said.
"Okay." Before Ace could go and open Julie's door. Julie wandered to the other side and opened the door herself.
Ace opened his car door and got inside, Julie buckled his seatbelt and Ace did the same.
"Hmm, which art gallery we are going to?" Ace asked turning his face.
"The Moon Project, 19th st," Julie said.
Ace froze for a bit, "What happened?" Julie asked when Ace didn't start the car.
"Ah? Nothing," Ace said before starting the car.
The Moon Project art gallery belongs to him. All the art work that placed and displayed over there are his work. Noone knows the owner or the artist but it is run by him.
The business details and sale of work is taken care by Maya and Sawyer. "Have you been to this art gallery before?" Ace asked.
Julie is looking out of the window at the passing by cars and people. "Yeah, when I shifted to New York. I came across the artist via social media. He is famous and his work is famous, kept visiting his art gallery whenever I can," Julie replied.
"You like his work?" Ace asked.
There were a lot of people who have complimented his work but right now he is intrested in knowing if Julie likes his work. Her review means something to him.
Julie smiled, "I will tell you over there," Julie said.
"By the way, have you been to the art galleries before?" Julie asked.
"Me? Hmm, I have been to art galleries with Maya and Sawyer before," Ace answered.
"Oh, you have been to The Moon Project before?"
"No."
"Hmm."
The drive to the art gallery was calm and silent. Ace is excited to know what Julie would be saying about his art work. This would be his first time hearing from someone about his work personally.
