Alex looked at himself at the mirror. He had a white dress shirt in a pinstriped black suit. He was pleased at how good he looked.
He looked at the time: 6:30.
He searched for his keys and left to go pick up his "friend-only-date".
Izzie was discontent about how her dress looked on her. She had 3 dresses to choose from. One was emerald green, one was black, and one was pink. She decided on wearing the pink but after she put it on, she realized she looked like a bride who was getting married in pink. So, she decided to wear the black one. She had her hair wavy but not too curly. And her make up was lightly done.
Suddenly, she heard a knock at the door.
"Izzie? Alex is here. He's waiting for you downstairs."
It was George's voice that filled the room.
"I'll be down in a minute!" she replied back.
She hurriedly looked at the mirror and applied some more lipstick.
Alex was waiting patiently in the couch watching some lame show that O'Malley was watching. Any minute now Izzie would finally come downstairs. He'd been waiting for a good 10 minutes now. And now she finally came down. She looked amazing. Beautiful. Breathtaking.
"Hey there" Izzie decided to break the silence.
"You look….. beautiful" Alex politely replied.
"Thanks. You're not so bad yourself" Izzie smiled.
Alex motioned to the car door and opened it for her. And he followed.
"Hey, do you think I could maybe go visit Denny before we head to the prom. I just wanna see how he's doing"
"Uhh… sure why not." Alex responded.
This was gonna be a long night. And he sure as hell wanted to get it over with.
