As you know, I agreed on a date, unintentionally. I wanted to bail but I'm not a bad person. Lily told me that I shouldn't decline free food. I quote, "You never been on a date before, take this as an experience. Just go for it! What could possibly go wrong? "
She's right.
That Friday, I went out with Seb. He picked me up at the hostel entrance with a limousine as I had requested. It was awkward because I wore a casual t-shirt with cute boot pairing to it while Seb was all suited up! Not to mention everyone was looking.
B: Oh, I thought-
S: It's fine! We can go somewhere, casual.
B: This is a bad idea.. I just wanna go. Driver, can you please stop here.
Driver: Sure miss.
S: No Steve, just drive. Hey, it's my fault okay. I never told you the dress code before coming here. I'm okay with however you decided to wear.
B: Sebastian, *pause and took a deep breath* what are you doing? I'm not your type. I've seen you date other girls. This school is much more smaller than you think. People talk. I know that you just broke up with Layla just a few days before you asked me out. I'm not some kind of rebound girl.
S: Beth, please.
The reason I broke up with Layla was because I know that I want to be with you. I was with Layla before I met you. I wanted to end things much sooner but she kinda knew about it. She would come up with multiple excuses to ask me to hold it off. We put up an act because she wanted to ensure her fame stays. I know this may sound lame but trust me.
B: *speechless*
I still can't date you.
S: Why? Are you seeing someone else?
B: No but I-
S: Give me a chance. Just one date. If you decide that I'm just a creepy guy or make you uncomfortable, you can bail on me after that.
B: (remembers how Lily say as a new experience) *let out a huge exhale* Well, what the hell. One date! Let's go creepy guy!
I tried to tell Sebastian that I like his brother. I can't really say it now, if things don't work out, he would know one of my biggest secrets. Worst, he would tell Oliver about it.
We went to the restaurant that Seb had made reservations. It was fancy as fak. I'm so not dress up for this place.
B: Hurm...are you sure they would allow me to enter this place wearing like this?
S: Don't worry, my dad owns this place. They could never say no to me.
B: You should have at least told me what I should wear. I wish you would magically have a spare dress somehow in this car.
S: I know this will sound so clazy but, I do. It was Layla's, well, I bought it with my money so it was mine but, I don't want to make it sound more complicated. I have a set of dress and even heels to pair with it. If, if you want it.
B: I don't! But, urgh, I don't want more shits coming from my mom. Give me that! You get out! You too Steve!
S: You heard the lady. *both of them got out*
*Beth changes in the car. She even wipe off her eyeliner and put on a decent amount of lipstick. She then came out of the car.*
S: WOW, you look.. amazing!
B: It's the dress. Let's just go in and eat. I'm not having more lectures from my mom about the way I dress.
Your Grandma always has people she paid to look over me especially in public places. I'm pretty sure we were followed that night. No matter how many times I told her to stop, she never do. At least she promises to stay away as long as I'm not in danger. Annoyingly, she would nag about how I dress up in public. Claiming how I brought shame to our family's name, the Von Blues.
Just like any other fancy restaurant, we were welcomed with hot towels and immediately escorted to our romantic dinner table.
S: Tell me, what do you mean when you said you don't want any lectures from your mom?
B: My mom is overprotective. I'm pretty sure we had been followed tonight. She would hire people to report back to her. She always nags about how I dress up in public. *Beth mimics her mom's word* "Don't bring shame to the Von Blues with your dark eyeliner and jeans with holes."
S: Are you telling me you're a Von Blues ? I thought they were joking about having Von Blues in the school.. I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to offence-
B: Stop. That's why I used my mom's maiden name here.. I don't need people to see me differently. You can't go around telling people about me! Or, I'll ask my mom's spy to cut off your balls. I mean it.. I can do it myself but-
S: I get it. *laughs* You're kinda funny with that threat even if it's true.
B: *raise her left eyebrow* It is true. I mean each word.
S: I guess it's an honor to date royal blood.
B: My blood is just as red as yours. Can we talk about something else?
S: Yeah, sorry. *pause*
You heard about the winner of the singing competition?
B: Of course, she sings like an angel. Jennifer deserves to win.
S: Nahh, your voice is much better than Jennifer's. You could have won the date with Oliver.
B: I did, but the different brother.
S: Tell me, do you genuinely like Oliver?
B: I think he's hot. I guess not hot enough to a point I needed to prove myself worthy to be his date.
I want the person I like to like me back as he gets to know me. I may be an option among other girls but I want to be chosen for being me. I don't have to go the extra mile just to prove I deserve the throne.
I can find other hot guys to be a crush on.
S: I would love to be the next 'hot guy'.
B: We'll see about that. Can you do backflip?
S: Sure, once I learn how to do it.
B:*laughs
S: I may be less hot than Oliver but I'm definitely funnier.
B: In your dreams. *still smiling
S: I made you smile, didn't I?
B: You're just lucky that I'm in good mood. Now, can you please let me finish this?
S: I can cook. I'll cook for you next time.
B: I love sushi.
S: I'll make sushi ;) Any allergies?
B: Nuts and sometimes prawns but I usually just eat them anyways. I love prawns.
S: Till death do us apart, you may kiss the prawn.
B: Nice try *unexpectedly smile*
After dinner,
S: Where to next?
B: Surprise me!
S: Steve, the location I told you about yesterday.
Steve: Buckle up.
After about 20 minutes of drive, we are out of town.
S: I'm not sure if you're a fan of the stars. Tonight there will be a meteor shower. It will start *looks at his watch* any minute from now.
B: I love stargazing!
Sebastian lay out a blanket on the grass. We sat there while waiting for the meteor shower. He slowly takes off his blazer and puts it on me. "You must be freezing." I'm glad he didn't notice how red my face looks by the time he place his blazer on me. As the meteor shower begins, I was too occupied to see how close Sebastian was. I noticed how hazel his eyes look, he also smells nice. He realizes that I am looking at him, we locked eyes.
Sebastian gentle lean on for a kiss and I did the same. We kissed! My first kiss. As our lips touch, i feel shivers on my spine and all my hair stand up. He tasted like strawberry. It must be from the strawberry ice-cream we had for dessert. My head was spinning for a split second as his tongue begins a quest to find mine. Naturally, my hands reach the back of his head. Sebastian begins to stand up which cause me to stand on tiptoes as he was at least a foot taller than me. Instead of bending down, Sebastian carried me back into the car. I screamed a bit as I was shocked. "You're definitely hotter than Oliver now!"
He wanted to unzip my dress but I stopped him.
B: No.
S: I'm sorry.
I stopped immediately. I move away from him.
B: Steve, school, please.
Steve: Right away, miss.
B: Sebastian, can you seat in the front seat with Steve. I need to change.
S: Yes, sure.
Hostel
*Sebastian went out to open the door for Beth but Beth already walked out of the car. Seb chases after Beth.*
S: Beth, wait! *Beth stops and turns around*
B: It was such a lovely dinner. Thank you. *she starts walking again
S: I'm sorry. I screwed up. Please, give me one more chance.
B: I'm not sure what do you expect from me when I agreed to continue with the date. I'm sure sex is on the list now.
S: I don't! It just...happens. I'm sorry I have no self-control. I-
B: Let me stop you there before you say more shits that will make it worst.
For you, this is just another date with some chick but, it means a lot for me.
This is my first date.
That was my *touch her lips*..first kiss..
I can't just give my virginity away over too in one night.
S: I'm not aware that-
B: I need to go.
Beth walks away.
Honey, that was indeed my first date and how I had my first kiss the same night.
I told Lily all about the date.
L: You should cut some slack on that poor guy. I mean, he has never been with someone as refreshing as you. Most of the girls he dated were divas and obviously sluts.
B: That does not mean he can get into my pants on the first date. He's a jerk.
L: Have you heard about Jennifer?
B: What about Jennifer?? Is she so special? Even Sebastian mentioned her name. Who mentions another girl's name when you're with someone else?
L: Beth, stop being such a pain in the ass. That's not the point. I heard she got dumb by Oliver. It was such a huge scene. Oliver found out she lied about her birthday and she can't even draw properly. We all know no one can sketch as good as you.
B: Good for Oliver but he can never found out about me. I just went out with his brother for God's sake!
L: I'm just saying that Oliver is back in the market. Maybe your cute notes can start again.
B: I don't think that's a good idea.
Monday
I saw Sebastian in the first period. He sits beside that time. We can't really talk in class so he wrote me a note.
"Sorry for being a jerk. Let me owned up to my mistake."
'NO'
"I got you sushi today" Then he handed me over what seems to be a lunch box.
"I made it myself"
'STILL A NO'
"Please. Just one bite. If you hate it, I promise you, I'll get out from your sight.'
*rings* he just left the lunchbox and got out. Urgh.. I hate men.
During lunch hour, I tried the sushi. It tastes like sushi. Not the best sushi but decent.
L: Just give that pal another chance.
B: We need someone to take you out so that you'll stop busting my ass about Sebastian.
L: No one will.
B: I have a good idea. If Sebastian manages to get you a date then I'll go out with him again.
L: Why are you involving me in your mess?
B: Lily, just embrace the new experience. There, SENT! I already told Sebastian it. I said I'll go out with him again you go out with me too. He needs to find a date for you.
L: I guess, there's no taking back.
B: Deep down you're glad am I right? hahahaha
L: Shut up!
