When I opened my eyes in the morning, Justin was watching me. His soft hand traced the outline of my face gently and his beautiful eyes took in my face. He looked rested and beautiful.

I smiled and pulled the covers over my head, embarrassed that I probably looked a mess this morning (as I did every morning).

"Hey." Justin slowly pushed down the covers, exposing my face again.

I blushed.

"Hey." I said.

"Good morning."

I smiled.

Justin leaned in and kissed my forehead.

"Did you sleep alright?" He asked me.

I nodded my head.

"You?"

"I hadn't slept like that in a while." He said.

That was true for both of us.

"Your dress is going to be dropped off this morning. So are your shoes. I also asked someone to stop by and do your hair and makeup." Justin said.

I looked at him.

This charity thing was a big deal then, I realised.

"Sounds... Fit for a princess." I chuckled nervously.

"You are a princess. To me." Justin smiled.

I blushed.

Reality slowly sank in and I realised that tonight I'd be eating at the same table as Richard and Kelly.

"Baby, don't over think tonight. It'll be good. I promise." Justin gently kissed my nose.

I closed my eyes for a moment and gave him a small smile.

"I'm just nervous." I said.

"I'll be right next to you. The entire evening. I'll hold your hand too. Whatever you want me to do."

I nodded my head and smiled.

"I want to teach you to drive." Justin said.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Where does that come from?" I asked.

He smiled.

"You told me you can't drive so I'd like to teach you."

"I think I need a license to be allowed behind the wheel, baby."

"It's so much easier to get one when you already know what to do. Trust me."

I thought for a moment.

"And what car are you going to use to teach me to drive?"

"Whichever you choose." He smiled.

My jaw dropped.

"Sorry, I am not touching any of your sports cars, mister." I said.

"Why not?"

"What part of 'I don't know how to drive' sounds foreign to you?" My voice pitched. "I don't want to kill us. In a sports car of all things! Those things have speed!"

"Fair point, well made." Justin smiled.

"I know." I laid on my back and crossed my arms.

"How about I get you some driving school stuff for you to read up on then when you're ready, you can take a test?"

"Good idea." I said, hiding the smile that was creeping on my face.

Justin chuckled and came close to me.
