Chapter 10: "First Date"
"What do you think of this one?" I looked over at Caitlin who was lying on my bed. "Caitlin!"
"What did you say something?" She spoke into the pillow.
"What do you think of my outfit?"
"You look great." Her voice muffled by the pillow.
"You didn't even look at it, and that's what you said about the last twenty outfits."
I could hear her groan and after a minute she stood up and turned her attention to me. "Can you blame me Mitchie, I'm starving anyways it's just a date."
"Not just date, it's our first date."
"Mitchie you act like you two have never been alone before."
"I'm just nervous."
"Don't be," She stood up and opened my door "What's your mom making?"
I shrugged "I don't know."
"Well I'm going to go find out." She slid out the door but poked her head in "Honestly Mitchie, you look fine."
I turned back to the mirror, once again Caitlin was right. I had on a green halter dress I pulled out a pair of cream colored open toed high heels, with beads on the straps. I spun around quickly and smiled, I glanced out the window and saw a familiar black car sitting on my drive way.
I ran out into the hallway and peeked over the railing, I could hear Caitlin and my Mom conversing in the kitchen. I saw Shane sitting nervously on the couch across from my Dad. They never really had confronted each other like this before. I noticed Shane spinning around his Purity Ring on his finger and nervously glancing at the stairs every few seconds. I guess my Dad has that over protective father vibe going on. I moved over to the entrance of the stairs and make my way down. I saw Shane's face light up as soon as he saw me.
He met me at the base of the stairs and took hooked arms with me. "Shall we?" He said gesturing to the door.
I nodded. "Bye Dad." I saw his stern face change to a smile.
"Have fun Mitchie, but not too much fun."
Shane opened the door. After I was through the door, he quickly ran past me and opened the front passenger seat to the car. I giggled, who would have ever thought jerky Pop Star, Shane Grey could even attempt to be a gentleman.
He rested his hand on top of my mine the whole way there. When I asked him where we were going he was all well just wait and find out.
"Are we there yet," I pestered "Or can you not tell me that either."
Shane shook his head and smiled. "We're here."
I looked around hoping to see this fancy restaurant with some name I would never be able to pronounce. I had to say I was a little disappointed.
"Are you sure this is it?" I asked, trying to conceal my disappointment.
He nodded, while he opened my door and helped me out of the car.
"Shane, this is Navy Pier, I've been here about a zillion times," I paused, to see the look on his face "Don't get me wrong I was just expecting more from a Pop Star like you."
He laughed. "Well if this date was the fancy restaurant date then it wouldn't be a Shane Grey style date now would it, but I promise we will do the whole fancy restaurant date another time."
Shane took my hand and led me to the end of the pier. We sat with our legs dangling over the edge, watching the sunset. His arm wrapped around me, I was resting my head against his shoulder. It was the moments like these with Shane that were just perfect. I looked up into his eyes, from the sunset his face seemed to have a glowing gold rim around him, he looked absolutely perfect. I kissed him lightly on the lips, he responded with a smile and a passionate kiss.
"Hungry?" He asked once we broke apart.
"NO" I lied, but my stomach ratted me out.
He raised an eyebrow. "I think you are." He stood up and offered me a hand.
He let his arm dangle around my shoulders as we walked a couple blocks, to a small restaurant. We were seated at a table outside. When the waiter came to take our orders Shane tossed a glare at him and then reached across the table to hold my hand. After he was out of ear shot, Shane loosened up again.
"Okay, what was that all about?" I freed my hand from his tight squeeze.
"You didn't say the way he was looking at." Shane tossed another glare "looking at you like you're a piece of meat." He mumbled.
"Shane, ignore him this night is just about you and me."
"Your right," He gently picked up my hand again "So are you enjoying this amazing date I planned."
"Well aren't you proud, but yes it's beyond amazing."
He smirked "I know."
I rolled my eyes "Pop Stars."
"It's Rock Star."
When the waiter came back with our meal, Shane was by far less tense, and the waiter apparently got the message and didn't even look at me. Making Shane insanely pleased, thus leaving the night to continue on flawlessly.
After dinner, Shane took me out for a walk along Lake Shore Drive, we were walking along the beach hand in hand, and Shane began pulling me towards the water.
"Shane if you get this wet dress I will yank all of your hair out." I said pulling away from him, and retreating back to the dry sand.
"Mitchie," He held out his hand again "Don't you trust me."
I sighed and placed my hand on top of his, Shane smiled.
"See you're not wet."
"Yeah whatever you say." I replied I quickly bent down and with all my strength splashed water into Shane's face. I stuck my tongue out at him "But you are."
"You're so going to pay for that." He began chasing me down the beach. When he caught up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist. He easily picked me up and dragged my towards the water.
"Shane!" I kicked "Put me down!"
He laughed and pretend to launch me into the air, of course I squealed being the girlish girl that I am. We finally quieted down and I could hear Shane's breathing.
"Can we sit down for a second?" He gestured to a bench he placed his hand gently on top of mine. He pulled out a small box from his pocket and placed it above my left knee. "I wanted to get you something to show you how much I care." He gestured to the box.
"Shane," I began to protest, as I reached for the box, he didn't need to buy me anything special. But my jaw dropped when I saw what was sparkling in the night.
"Shane," I said again this time speechless. "It's beautiful."
"May I?" He gestured toward my hand. I nodded, as he took my hand and gently placed it on my right ring finger. "It's engraved." He said as he let my hang go.
I ran my finger across the ring and could feel the tiny words etched into the ring.
"What's it say?"
"It's stupid." He said not wanting to tell me.
"Please?"
"Reason Why I'm Singing" He looked away. (A/N I don't know if that would fit on a ring but let's pretend okay?)
"I love it Shane." I leaned in and pecked him on the cheek. He smiled and ran his hand across where my lips were just moments ago.
"Mitchie," He turned to meet my eyes dead on "I think I love you."
