Getting Ready

Richelle's pov
As soon as I got home from dance, I jumped onto my bed and just started smiling. I didn't scream as I didn't want my parents to find out that I'm dating Noah. My mother would make a huge fuss and probably tell everyone in my family. On the other hand, my father would just start asking me questions about Noah such as, 'when did you start liking him?' or, 'is it a smart idea to date your best friend?'. Ok, there's all that, but the truth is that I'm embarrassed to tell them. My face will turn as red as a tomato and then my parents will start to do their things- partying and asking me questions. Agh, I think I found a problem. They're going to ask me why I'm dressed up, why Noah is picking me up at seven, and where we're going. Maybe I should just ask Noah, he'll give me the right answer.

R~ Hey Noah, what do I say to my parents when you pick me up?
N~ What do you mean?
R~ They're going to ask questions Noah. Questions!
N~ Haha, just tell them the truth!
R~ I can't!
N~ Why not?
R~ Have you met my parents?
N~ Ok, I see your point. Well, I could tell them if you don't want to.
R~ Then run out the door?
N~ Pretty much my plan.
R~ Haha, ok. See you at seven! X
N~ Yeah, see you! :)

Ok so it wasn't much of a plan, but it could work! If we run out of the door, then they won't have time to ask questions! I was going to wear heels with my dress, but I don't want to break my ankle when we run! I guess I'll just have to wear flats, oh well. Noah won't mind, or will he? If I dress badly, he'll think that I'm not taking this seriously! Wait, how much make up will I have to put on? How should I wear my hair? What dress should I put on? Ugh, being a boy is so much easier.

I finally decide to wear my light blue strapless dress, with my hair down but curled and I decided to put on hardly any make up. If he can't except me for what I look like without make up, then I won't be happy with him. I wonder what he'll wear? That reminds me, where is he taking me? He never said, I guess it's a surprise. I hope it's good, I hate bad surprises. But, Noah has my trust. He knows what I like and dislike, so he'll find the perfect place to go to. I can't wait!
