Chp 7

DAVID'S POV

Sunday morning came in pretty quickly.It was a late morning for me and surprisingly I was free.I was lazing around when I decided it was time for me to freshen up.I got ready quickly and went down.

There was nobody down.It was way past the breakfast time actually.I asked one of the helpers to serve me breakfast.He left after serving me breakfast and I quickly savoured as my stomach grumbled with hunger.

"Finally you decided to wake up."Mom ruffled my hair and sat besides me while I smiled.

"Good morning."I wished her and she wished me back with a smile.

"So what plans do you have for today?"She asked looking at me.

"Nothing really.I think I'll rest today."I said thinking a bit.

"Oh if you're free why don't you take Jess out."She proposed casually.

"Don't you think it's a bit soon?"I said giving her a doubtful look waiting for her to answer.She looked at me for a minute and then hit me on my forehead.

"It had been almost a month now.I think now is the correct time cause if not she would run away.I don't know about her but I would have definitely escaped."She shook her head. "Like father like son.You cannot be serious David.I thought you would be romantic.You are hopeless.As this speed I doubt you would get married."She slapped her forehead and I looked at her in disbelief.She could have tried acting.I am sure she would have aced it. "Oh god you are still thinking.Get your lazy ass up and call her.Take her out and make her feel special."She ordered and I nodded like an obedient child.

I finished my breakfast and I quickly jogged up to call her.It rang for a bit before she answered. "Hey."

"Hi."I answered.Her breathing was heavy maybe she ran to pick my call.

"What's up?"She asked.Her voice was soft.No it wasn't a typical girlish sound,it had a little edge to it.

"Umm so I was wondering whether you were free this evening?"

"I have other plans but I could cancel them."She said.

"Oh no its okay if you are busy."

"They are not that important."She cut me off and I stopped.

"Okay then.Will you come for dinner with me?"I asked biting my lip.Why was I nervous to listen her answer?

"Yess."She agreed quickly making me sigh in relief.

"Great."My mood was elevated quickly. "So I'll pick you up at 7.Dress casual but not too casual."I said.She agreed and we hung up.

I had no idea what I was going to do.We had talked and I know she loved somewhere quiet and no chaos.She was a pretty simple girl.She wasn't someone who liked crowd or big restaurants or anything fancy.So I decided on a pretty and a simple place a little away from the city made the necessary calls to get the arrangements done.I thought I was done but then I decided to send a dress over for her.

"Mom,I need your help."I barged into my parents room to take mom's help.She looked up from her magazine and sat straighter.I sat besides her and showed her a few dresses I had selected. "Help me choose one for her please."

She went through all the dresses and then showed me the one she loved.It was a blush pink colour dress which would reach a little below her mid thighs.It was body hugging on the top and had a flare on the bottom.It was simple and looked very pretty.

"This one is great.Thanks."I rushed out going to call the designer to deliver the dress directly at her place.

After about an hour my phone pinged with a message. 'Thankyou💛' it said.I quickly replied and went for lunch.

After lunch I was pretty bored.No work was not really an option for me.I had no idea what to do with myself.Jake always said that I was very boring and I behaved like an old man who had absolute no idea what to do other then work.I could see that happening.I sighed,I needed to change my ways.

I wasn't boring before.I did date a couple of times back in college but eventually I got fed up about it when things didn't work out.It wasn't serious.I don't get nervous nor am I this awkward but I am surprised this time.I usually had an upper hand in the relationship and I would toss the girls out whenever I didn't like them.It was mom who told me to mend my ways.Not that I am regretting,I have started respecting girls a lot more now and I just say no to them in a more nicer way.This was the reason why I busied myself in work cause nobody really interested me but now that I am kinda interested maybe things would change for the better.

I decided to watch a movie to pass my time but I couldn't really choose any movie and so skipped that idea.Having no choice I decided to call Jake.

"Hello?David?Is that really you?How did you get time to call me on Sunday?"He dramatically started not giving me any chance to speak.I already regretted calling him. "Hello David,you there?"He asked.

"Oh you remember I was here.I am glad."I rolled my eyes at him even though he couldn't see me. "You know what?forget I called."I pulled my phone away to hang up but I heard him shout. "Whats up with you,why you shouting?"I grumbled irritated with him.

"I am listening right why do you have to act like an oldie all the time."He poked fun at me yet again but I let it go. "Ok now tell me why you called?"He asked.

"I called cause I was bored."I didn't really know whether he was free.The only thing I hoped was he was free.

"I am currently shooting.I am sooo sorry.But we could meet up later."He suggested.

"I am kinda busy later.Anyways,I'll hang up.Bye."I hung up before he had the chance to question.I didn't need any teasings right now.

It was thankfully 6.I had very successfully passed my time doing absolutely nothing but I was glad that it was time for me to get ready.I showered quickly and came out with a towel wrapped around my hips.I entered my closet and took out my clothes.A simple white tshirt and a blue denim jacket to go with it.I gelled my hair and I put on my watch and a pair of white shoes.I grabbed my phone and I was good to go.I looked at myself in the mirror and I should say that I looked decent.

WRITERS POV

Decent?He was kidding.He looked straight out of a fashion show.He could give the models a run for their money.His fashion sense,his physique piled up to him looking like a greek goddess.He had everything a girl asked or looked for in a guy.A great height,great features,amazing physique and it was a plus that he was well mannered and not a playboy.

He jogged down the stairs and left after telling the helper to inform his mom about his departure.He got into his car which was a black jaguar.He stopped on the way to get some chocolates and made his way towards her house.

He reached in no time.He parked his car and knocked on the door after getting out.Jessica opened the door for him and he was surprised.Don't girls generally make the guy wait for a little while?

He was blown away with how she looked.She had exceeded his expectations.She looked like a fairy.She walked like she owned the place...technically she did but her aura was something else.The dress flattered her body really well.Because I said casual she opted for white shoes and went with a ponytail and minimal makeup.She looked amazing.

David couldn't stop staring at her and she blushed under his gaze.She cleared her throat and he seemed to come back from his dreamland.She didn't dare look up but David could make out a faint blush which made him smile. "You ready?"He asked and she nodded.She turned and bid bye to her parents and David realised that his little admiring session was indeed witnessed by her parents.He passed a little sheepish smile making them chuckle.

"Lets go."Jessica said and David nodded.
