I'm a wreck. I'm dressed and staring at my reflection in the mirror, trying to figure out what type of makeup I should wear. I don't have much, but I think I have enough. I put on some natural shades, and then get dressed. I am wearing a black beanie and a red plaid shirt with black skinny jeans and brown boots. I hope this is okay… Maybe he doesn't like red, maybe it reminds him of blood or something. Am I too casual? Maybe this is too much. Or maybe too little… NO! I do not care what the world or even a boy thinks about me. I am me and if they don't like it, they can just leave.

With that thought, I plug in my earphones and go to sit on my bed. It's 6:50, I have one hour and 10 minutes until I my day may or may not be spectacular. Maybe I should text him, make sure it's not cancelled or anything… Yeah, good idea me! Just try not to think about him thinking you are too pushy… Or maybe he is with another girl doing unspeakable things in his bedroom right now… Or maybe he deleted this number and… doesn't know who I am… Hm.

NO! I cannot let fear control me! Tonight, I am a dangerous woman! (A/N sorry but I couldn't resist. Dangerous Woman by Ariana Grande!) Nothing can stop me now, not even my own head! As I jam out to music, finally feeling confident in myself, I reach for my phone. Just as I grab my phone, I get a text. It's from Jace!

He says, Hey, you ready for tonight?

Am I a bad person for thinking wrong about that? My stomach clenches at the thought, but then I shake away the feeling. That feeling is new… I blink a couple of times before responding back. I wouldn't want him to think I wasn't here!

Hey, yeah I'm ready! I already have my outfit on and everything! Can't wait! Wait, why is it cancelled?!

I type back quickly and send, before face-palming myself. Of course it isn't cancelled? Stop being so afraid, what happened to that dangerous woman earlier? Now he thinks you are a freak, and does want to cancel. Well, that's it. I messed up my only chance for this not being cancelled. Now I'm going to be lonely all night and not with Golden Boy… I start to get up to take off my makeup, but then my phone chirps again.

NO! I have been looking forward to this, why would I cancel? Wouldn't want to keep my Red Velvet waiting would I? Why, can you not come?

He… He has been looking forward… To seeing… ME?! WHAT! And oh great, another nickname. It's so cute how he gives me nicknames… Wait, no it's not! That's not my name! Maybe he can't pronounce my name right… Is it that hard? Cla-ry… Not that hard, it's only two syllables! No, he said spelled it before, I am pretty sure he can say it, too. And do I see him getting nervous, too? I may have to attack this…

Yeah, sorry I can't come. I have to walk my dead grandmothers' fish over to the space station and I won't be back for decades… I type back to him, before laughing really hard and falling backwards on my bed. I am laughing so hard, I start to snort and clutch my stomach. I bet I messed up my hair and makeup, but I don't care! I haven't laughed this hard in forever!

Really? Oh… Um Okay I totally understand that… Situation… you are in… But if you didn't want to come why didn't you just say so? Or are you joking? He types, and my laughter instantly dies. Did he believe me? I tried to make my response as farfetched as I could... Hmm to let him off the hook, or not to let him off the hook. Eh, I will let him go. But only this time! Next time I will scare him!

Yeah, I'm joking J Sorry LI type back, and sit up on my pillows, waiting for his response. An instant later, I get it.

Hey, you little snot! I'm supposed to be the Joker here! Not you! You're supposed to be the superhero! And FISH CAN'T WALK! He types back, and I imagine him screaming the last part at me in desperation. I start to laugh really hard again, and I can't remember a time when I felt this good. I am so happy right now, nothing can ruin this moment for me.

We talk over text some more, me practically crying because I'm laughing so hard, until its 7:50. 10 more minutes until I have to go?! I'm so dead, I probably look like I had an allergic reaction or something, I've been laughing for so long.

I get up and head over to my mirror again, only to see that I look fine, if not better! I guess all those years without laughing really took a hit on me. I frown at the thought of what caused me not to laugh anymore, before I realize I have a date in 8 minutes. My first date. This is no time to be sad, I should be celebrating!

I start to fix my hair and beanie before I hear the doorbell ring. He's early! Am I ready, or should I just ignore it and act like I never heard it? No, that's too mean and he might leave. Speaking of leaving, I really need to go!

"COMING!" I shout, practically at the top of my lungs before I sprint down my stairs and get to the door. I check myself in the mirror, before opening the door. I am blown away. He is the breath taking, mouthwatering, drool worthy kind of guy. He is wearing a black plaid shirt, blue jeans, and Nike shoes. His hair is tousled in a good way, and he has his hands in his pockets. He is leaning against my door frame, and I watch him as he fully scans my body with his eyes.

When his eyes come back to mine, and he gives me a crooked smile. I blush and look at the ground. "Hey." He says to me, making me look back up at him. I give him a small smile before softly saying, "Hey" back.

We arrive a Bouley, and my heart is beating so fast I think it will burst out of my chest. I look up at the place, and I realize how much I miss it. I used to always come here with my mom, dad, and my two brothers before they moved away. I realize how beautiful this place is at night, and then I feel Jace come up beside me. "You ready for the best night of your life?" He asks me, and when I Nod, he takes my hand and we go inside. Together.
