Love at What Cost

DATE

IT FINALLY HERE IT SATURDAY!!!!!!!!

OK it is officially Saturday I am freaking out over because I could not deal with Rebecca today. I told them both on Tuesday after he asked me on the date, and she is making me question her bff status with all the teasing. But now it is Saturday and again I am freaking out and I cannot handle her with my nerves already shot. Rachel just calm down Kens says you are fine. first off where did he say y'all were going? that is just its Kens he will not tell me. After he gave me his number Tuesday, we started texting and have not stopped.   he insisted that I call him Dax instead of Daxton or Dr. Reid.  He said people who really knew him call him Dax and I was soon to be someone who really knew him. OK since you do not know where you are going then you just need to keep it light and comfortable and ready for all occasions. whether you are going to go on a walk on the beach or you are gonna go to a fancy restaurant, so let us just look in your closet and see what you got. Ken goes into my closet and she starts throwing out all my clothes on the bed. Sighing in frustration Kens comes out and says you have absolutely nothing and I was prepared for this so let me go out to my car and get the dress that I bought for you be right back. She comes back in with a beautiful black dress that is a long sleeve off the shoulders with a scalloped neckline. The dress is fitted at the waist with a mermaid skirt that stop right at the knees. We both were the same size in shoes, and, in her hands, I see a pair of her black Christian Louboutin red bottoms and a pair of her Red Jimmy Choos.  She tells me to go change and when I come out I feel beautiful. I put on a light layer of foundation eye shadow all natural colors Anna red lipstick I choose the red Jimmy choos to accent the lips and really brighten up the dress I also choose a pair of my diamond stud earrings and leave my long black hair WAVY down my back I turn around and look in the full length mirror and Kens says wow girl you clean up nice. smacking her on the shoulder I say thanks so much you don't know how much you have helped me today she says no worries girl you got this I hear slight knock at my door and look over at the Clock and see it is 7:00 o'clock on the dot gosh we ran out of time but I'm so glad she was here to help me I go to answer the door. I open the door and he is standing there looking delicious as ever he's in a three piece charcoal blue Gray suit with a white shirt with the top button left open He is as handsome as ever.

Dax POV

knocking on the door I'm nervous and excited today is the day we're going on the date I hear someone coming down the stairs and then slowly she opens the door. sucking in a breath because wow I'm speechless! She looks beautiful she's in a black dress with some bright red shoes and some bright red lipsticks... breathtaking. Hi I say Hi she says back. You look beautiful I tell her and ask if she is ready to go. She's smiling nervous and I'm glad to see that she's as nervous as I am we're going to dinner and then for horse drawn carriage ride in the park afterwards. I didn't wanna take her somewhere where I couldn't get to know her, I'm so interested in her and I really hope she enjoys today so that I can see her again. Walking her to my car, I hold the door open for,her because my mom taught me of nothing else to be a gentleman and she would have my neck if i she found out I was not being one. I'm so excited the  drive to the restaurant was a silent but a comfortable silence. I chose The Boardwalk, it's a nice restaurant here in downtown Pensacola. We get to the front and the hostesses ask do we have a reservation. I say yes for 2 under Reid. she says right this way Mr. Reid your table is ready.  We go to the private dining room that I specifically asked for so that we would not be seen by anyone we worked with so there would be no chatter among the staff and students. Not until we figured out if their would be an use and I did not want to get her nor myself in any trouble.  At dinner she orders a steak with scallop dish and I am happy to see that she is a girl that is not afraid to eat in front of me.

Dinner was nice we talked about our childhoods, hobbies, favorite bands and played 21 questions. Its a silly high school game but it is great when wanting to get to know someone. It was taking all I have not kiss her. I just want to lean over the table and kiss her smack dead on her plump juicy lips. I have caught myself staring a couple times and I hope she didn't catch me. As the waitress comes over and ask if we would like dessert I'll look to Rachel and she says I'm stuffed. I look at the waitress and say just the bill please. After paying, we walk over to the park and the carriage is waiting on us. She looks over at me and says this is amazing I couldn't have asked for a better night thank you so much! I was so excited to hear her say this because I so worried she may  not like this. The ride is about 30 minutes long and I see that she is starting to  get cold and i take of my jacket and I put it around her shoulders. She smiles gratefully at me and I'm so caught up in the moment that I lean in to kiss her, slowly of course giving her the time to backup in case I read her signals wrong, and she tilts her head up towards me signaling that it's OK. I waste no time and I kiss her. Fireworks start going off in my mind, this is the best kiss I've ever had. Her lips are soft and fit right with mine.The kiss becomes more passionate as our tongues start fighting for dominance mine wins of course. We both sit back gasping for air and she smiles. It's getting late so we head back to my car she says, "Dax, I really had a great time thank you so much for tonight"  Rachel I have a great time too and I hope we can do this again sometimes. I told myself I wasn't gonna do this but I can't not ask her, " Rachel I know this may be a little forward but I was wondering if you wouldn't mind us putting a tile on this and me being exclusively talking to you and you exclusively talking to me? I" She looks over wide eyes, gosh I am such an i***t why did I have to rush it. To my surprise, she says Dax? is this you trying to ask me to be your girlfriend? I say ....ummm.. yeah and she said I love to be your girlfriend!  I just hug and kiss her and soon i have to let her go. To say I am happy is an understatement. I start the drive back to her house and again there was comfortable silence. I take her hand in mind and just hold it the whole way back. I walk her to her door with no intentions of going in just getting a kiss goodnight. I lean down to kiss her and when i pull back I ask her if she would like to get brunch tomorrow afternoon she said brunch sounds great I can't wait to see you then ....
