"Alright, so what do we do now?" Seth and I were lounging on Mia's couch. I was in my PJ's, and he was in a different pair of jean shorts. He was laying behind me, and drawing mindless circles on my arm as I laid with my back against his bare chest.
"Well…" He leaned over and gently kissed my cheek, and I shivered slightly. "Wh-what do you want to do?" I mumbled, twisting my neck slightly to look at him.
"I want to take the most beautiful woman in the world on a first date." He gently kissed my nose and looked at me closely.
"Oh…Okay." I started to freak a little bit. What the hell was I supposed to wear on the first date with my soul mate? This wasn't a high school first date!
"Unless you don't want too…" He pulled back farther and looked at me closely, clearly misreading my response.
"I do! I do! It's just…" I glanced down at my watch. 5:47. "If we are going to go out at dinner at like seven, you need to leave so I can get ready." I jumped up and smiled down at him.
He stood up and smiled down at me. "Alright. I'll be back at seven, sharp." He kissed my forehead, and then was gone.
I let out a small yelp and ran towards Mia's room. I quickly knocked on the door.
After hearing a few squeaks from the mattress, the door opened to show a disheveled Mia in a robe. "What?"'
"Where you asleep?" I hoped she was.
"Yeah." She gave me a slight glare.
"Thank god! Okay, I'm sure you can break away from your sex boy toy long enough to help me get ready for my date." I smiled weakly, while she perked up right away.
"He asked you out on a date? Oh my god!" She turned towards the room. "Jake, I'll be helping Lily. Just…go to sleep or something!" Then she turned back towards me and smiled. "Your room, now."
Without another word, I quickly turned and nearly ran to my room. I started to rifle through the boxes, and Mia came in, searching the boxes as well. "You really should unpack these."
While still searching, I let out a sigh. "Well…If I unpack then…" Oh shit, I should have just let it go. It was rhetorical.
"Then Seth might not ask you to move in with him." She was so nonchalant about it, but dead on.
I stopped searching the boxes. "How did you know?"
She just shrugged and pulled two boxes onto the bed. "I felt the same way about Jake. Trust me, it'll all work out. But it is easier in the end if you don't unpack." She opened the boxes. "Okay, now we just need the shoe boxes and I think we'll be fine."
Nodding, I pulled that box onto the bed, and then looked around. "Okay, now I'm kind of freaking out. I mean, I haven't been on a true romantic date in months…maybe even a year."
"Oh hush up and calm down. It'll be fine. You are meant to be together, so it will fine." She started to pull out bra's and panties from the box and held them up. "Damn girl, do you own a pair of sexy panties or anything?"
Rolling my eyes, I felt my cheeks turn pink ever so slightly. "Farther down in the box." She nodded and started to pull out lacier and more reviling bras and panties. "And it's not like he'll see them…we haven't even kissed yet.
The look on Mia's face was one of pure and utter shock. "You have to be fucking kidding me. You haven't kissed yet? Damn, do you know how hard that must be for him?" She shook her head and sighed.
"What do you mean?" I sat down on the bed and caught the bra and panties that Mia tossed at me. They were a very light blue, almost all lace, and almost no coverage.
She moved onto the dress box and kept shaking her head. "The bond of imprinting makes you more beautiful and important than anyone else in the world to our wolves. The bond will become stronger after you make love." She gave me a weird look, but kept going. "That is the first thing they want to do…make you their's. If he hasn't even slept with you yet, I'd be shocked. But not even kissed you? That boy must be tortured!"
That was new to me. He was torturing himself just so I would feel more comfortable? GOD DAMN IT! That really pissed me off.
Mia held up and a dress and looked at me. "Yes, no?"
It was a dark blue dress that was loosely hanging, but just barely covered my butt. It was one strap, and it was tight right under where my boobs were, and had some rhinestone designs that made it just pop. It was beautiful, and had a hint of sluty-ness. Perfect.
"Yes. Okay, I'm going to change, and then you can fix my hair and pick out shoes and all of that good stuff."
Smiling at me, she nodded and then was gone. I quickly changed, and tried not to look at myself in my bra and panties. I felt weird in them, especially since Seth would never see them…right?
I quickly shook my head to get the idea out of it. If he did, then that meant I would be ready for it. If not, then I would just be torturing him…fan-fucking-tastic.
Once I was changed, I opened the door to see Mia lounging on the wall across from my door. "Beautiful. Okay, now for your shoes…how much shorter than Seth are you?" She asked as she walked into my room and started to search the shoe box.
"I don't know…a couple of inches…"
"Okay, good. So the bigger the heals the better…but you still need to be shorter than him…" She pulled out a pair of dark blue pumps the same shade of blue as the dress. They had about three inch heals and I sighed.
"I'm going to kill myself in these."
"No you won't. Come on." She handed them to me and I reluctantly put them on and walked around the room once. They weren't too hard to walk in…
"Okay, good. Now, for hair and makeup."
She finished my hair and makeup with about two minutes to spare. My hair was in loose ringlets that fell just below my shoulders, but looked sexy. And my makeup was well…very pretty. I can't quiet explain what it looked like, but I felt I wasn't looking at myself in the mirror, but a much prettier girl.
I heard a faint knock coming from somewhere in the house, and I guessed it was the front door. Mia perked up and smiled. "Your prince in wolf fur is here."
I rolled my eyes but smiled to myself. He was here. I quickly but carefully walked towards the door and opened it, smiling brighter. There was Seth, in a light blue button down shirt and dress pants. He was holding a bouquet of flowers. Yellow roses.
"Hello beautiful." He smiled and handed me the flowers, which Mia quickly took from me.
"I'll put these in water. Now you two, go." She shooed us out and shut the door.
I giggled and looked at him. "Sorry about that. She was about as happy for this date as I was." I lowered my head and brushed a piece of hair behind my ears.
He chuckled and took his hand in mine, and I felt electricity shoot through my arm. Looking up, I saw he brought his truck. "What, no motorcycle?" I giggled again.
"Well, I thought that was more suitable for a second date." He smiled at me, and then led me towards the passenger seat, then he slid behind the wheel.
He turned on the car and then started to drive, and I kept my gaze locked on him. "So, where are we off to?"
He chuckled and smirked. "It's a secret. But I'll tell you this, it's not a five star restaurant."
Sighing, I leaned against the seat. "I don't like surprises though."
"I know. That's why I did it." He smiled at me, and I felt myself shudder slightly. Oh god.
We pulled up to a parking lot and he turned to smile at me. "Now you need to close your eyes." He cocked his eyebrow in just a way that made me want to jump on him then and there.
"Do I have to?" I tried to give him a puppy dog pout.
"Yes." He reached into the back seat and pulled out a silk tie. "But now I don't trust you." He quickly slid the silk over my eyes and tied it behind my head. Before I knew it, I felt my door open and him reaching for me. "But your shoes need to go." He slowly took them off, and wherever his hands touched left a tingling sensation.
Then he took my hand and slid me out of the car, then he slid his arms around my waist and slowly started to lead me towards something. I felt sand beneath my feet and let out a content sigh.
After a while of walking, he stopped me and gently kissed the crook of my neck, making me shiver.
He slowly slid off the tie and I gasped. We were at the beach, but all around there were hanging lights, just barely illuminating the sky since it was only approaching 7:30. There was a large plaid blanket under all of them, which had a large picnic basket on it.
"So, do you like it?" He whispered softly into my ear, and I just nodded. It was the most romantic thing I've ever seen, and it was perfect.
I walked over to the blanket, with Seth right behind me, and sat down in the middle. He sat down next to me and smiled. "I'm glad you like it."
I gently bit my bottom lip and looked up at the sky. "It's such a beautiful night."
He nodded and took my hand in his. I looked at him, but he kept his gaze on the stars. Might as well go for broke, right?
I slowly crawled over and sat on his lap, looking at the sky. I gently leaned against him, and he wrapped his arms around me and sighed. I turned towards him and smiled. "Seth?"
"Yes, Lily?" He turned his head down to look at me. He was only inches from my face, his nose so close to brushing against mine, and his soft rose colored lips just in reach.
"I don't want to hurt you anymore…" I gently nibbled on my bottom lip.
"Lily, you haven't hurt me." He smiled slightly, but I saw confusion and worry glinting in his eyes.
"Yes, I have. I've been making you wait….hurting you because I won't show you how much I care for you…" I gently slid my hand into his hair, feeling the soft, silk texture slide between my fingers.
"Lily, you don't have to. I can wait…" But in his eyes I could see how much he didn't mean it. How much I really did pain him.
"I'm sorry." As I whispered the words, I pulled myself towards his lips, and pulled his head towards me.
When our lips connected it was a shock of electricity. His lips were soft but gentle, but yet seemed hungry and wanted to have dominance, which I quickly gave to him. His tongue ran along my bottom lip, and I moaned, giving him entrance. Our tongues met in a passionate dance that I've never experienced before.
Sadly, we had to pull away all too soon for breath, and I leaned my forehead on his, our hands roaming each other's clothed back. My hands inched towards his hem of his shirt, and I started to tug it up, trying to get it over his head.
He gently took his hand in mine. "Lily….No."
I pulled back slightly, but kept my hand in his. "What? Why? I thought that this is what you wanted…."
He took a large gulp, as if trying to restrain himself, and once again, he looked very pained. "Lily, you still have a choice right now. If you do this, you won't have a choice again…" He lowered his gaze.
"What are you talking about a choice?"
He kept his gaze lowered, and his voice cracked, showing how hard this was. "Lily, you still have the choice to walk away, to have a normal life. The moment we…mate…You loose that. You'll never be able to say no…never be able to leave. Lily, I can't that that from you. You are too young to be stuck with once choice…"
With what sounded like a slight whimper, he slid me off his lap and placed me onto the blanket. "I'm sorry…" He whispered, and then was gone.
Hey guys, I'm soo sorry it took me so long to update. My internet is shot, and I can't get a good signal from my neighbors. And I was at camp, and then I watched my bro play a baseball tournament three hours from here. So I tried to make it longer for you guys. Love ya!
