Roses & Wallflowers

When I got home, my mother had a note on the door that said: Hey Haize. There is bologna in the fridge and there is bread in the pantry. I won’t be home until late tomorrow morning. Just do what you need, and I’ll be home later. -Mom

I sighed and walked into the house. I made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, instead of using the bologna. I can not stand bologna, it’s so gross.

I sat down on the couch and turned on the tv. Even though I don’t like to watch tv, I was in the mood. When I turned it on, SpongeBob was on, so I decided to leave it playing.

And I groaned when the phone started to ring.

“Tara Jones isn’t in right now.” I said, sitting back down.

“That’s cool. But I’m looking for Haize.”

I tensed and said, “This is she.”

“Hey beautiful. I’m sorry that I couldn’t drive you home today. I had to get new glasses today.”

Julian.

I smiled and said, “How in the world did you get my number?”

“Well, when you’re smart like me, you know how to get a pretty girls number without asking. I like to do my research every now and then.”

“Okay. Well, why did you call me?”

“I wanted to ask you to attend to my family dinner.”

“Why? I mean, I would love to. But you barely know me, and I don’t think your family would want to meet me.”

“Well a dinner is a great way to bond, and why wouldn’t my parents want to meet you? You’re smart, and funny, and beautiful. I’m pretty sure that they would want to meet you.”

I was blushing. I admit it, I was blushing. “Well what do you want me to wear?”

“Open your front door and I’ll show you.”

I bit my lip and smiled. Then I walked up to my front door and opened it to see Julian smiling from ear to ear.

“Oh I’ve got to go. There’s someone in front of me that’s taken my breath away.” He said before he hung up.

I set the phone on the table by the door and let him in. “So what is it that you want me to wear?” I asked and he pulled out a white box from his jacket.

“I know this is all so sudden, and I shouldn’t be buying you things. But when I saw this outfit, I just had to buy it for you.”

He handed me the box and we sat down on the couch. When I opened it I gasped. It was a white strapless dress, and underneath it was a pair of black pumps.

“Julian. They’re both beautiful. I’ve never gotten anything like this, and I just don’t know if I can take it.”

“Oh no girl. I can’t take this back,” He smiled at me and motioned for me, “Come here.”

I scooted closer to him and he turned me around, pulling my hair tie from my hair. When I turned around his smile disappeared.

“You look amazing just like that. Please go put that outfit on and accompany me. Please.” He grabbed my hand, “It would be much appreciated Ms. Jones.”

I nodded my head and walked up to my room. When I put the outfit on, I walked in front of my full body mirror and gasped. I’ve never worn these kind of clothes, and, I love them. But they don’t look good on me. I brushed my hair and put some clear lip gloss on.

Then I went downstairs. “Are you really going to make me wear this Julian?”

He walked out of the kitchen and stuttered before he said, “You literally took my breath away. And yes, I am going to make you wear that. You deserve to be pampered every once in a while.” He smiled at me and held out his hand. “Shall we go my darling?”

I put my hand in his and we left.

When we arrived at the restaurant, I was surprised because I’ve never even been to something like this. Yes, I am going on about how I’ve never had these things. But, it’s so true.

Julian opened my door and helped me out. When we walked into the restaurant, no one was sitting down, and they were just walking around like they all knew each other.

Then a beautiful woman with long blonde hair walked up to Julian and smiled. “Who’s this lovely lady, son?” Son? My God.

“I’m Haize.” I smiled.

“She’s my date for tonight.” Julian said and his mother smiled.

“Well I’m Bridget, and I hope you have a great time with use Hanes tonight.”

I nodded my head and Julian pressed his lips to my temple. “You’re probably scared and afraid of what to do, because you’ve probably never been to a big dinner like this. But there’s nothing wrong with that,” He put his hands on my shoulders. “You should be able to look like this and be looked at the way you are right now, every day. Because you deserve it.”

He kissed my forehead and we walked to his family.
