FOREVER YOURS

Chapter Six: First Date

I woke up a few minutes to Five, I walked in to my closet to pick a perfect outfit for my "DATE" . What do people wear this days... I'm thinking a pant suit ,but It's late and too serious, a skirt would look like we are on a business trip. Going through my collection of gowns I saw an Orange Bandage Cross Front Cami Midaxi Dress, it had a

a ribbed texture body con bandage dress in a midaxi length featuring cami straps and zip fastening at the back. It was perfect, I never got to wear it, since I saw bought it in college, I was hoping to wear it for a date but I didn't get the chance, who knew I'd be wearing it for Nick, I wanted to say my Nick but I didn't want to be so possessive yet!! Considering I'm somebody's soon to be wife. I sighed sadly as I remembered my parents plan for my future. After picking out a black heeled shoe to wear, I went to have my bath. I came out quickly , I did my face but not too heavy I did a natural makeup since my gown was already bright. I didn't want to look like a Clown. I packed my hair neatly in a low bun and wore my set of Golconda diamond earrings , I looked perfect. I was pleased, I checked the time and it was already 6'o clock . I quickly wore my gown and heels. I headed to the bowl and picked the keys to the Toyota Pruis ,I wanted to have a normal look. I realized Nick has not sent the location of the Gallery to me

So I decided to call him

"I was about to call you"

  I blushed before replying

"Ohhh, well thankfully I called first. You did not send the location to me"

" I'm sorry it skipped my mind, I'll send it to you immediately"

"Okay thanks"

I ended the call quickly before I became weird  ,cause I had started blushing my cheeks away. I went to inform Susan I was leaving but she was sleeping and I didn't want to wake her up so I wrote a message for her on a paper and placed it by her water Jug before leaving

Going out with a friend

Don't cook for me

I'll eat out

Don't wait up on me either

I'll be back pretty late

In case my Mum calls and she questions why I'm not picking her calls  , tell her I'm sleeping .

XOXO..MUAHHH..

I received a text from Nick , he sent the location of the Art Gallery.. I inputted the address on my GPS  and I  went out. I played my favorite song

Undecided  by Chris Brown singing along the chorus

"But I'm undecided, excited, ignited

And I don't wanna feel the way I do, but I like it

Look at all these sparks flying

But I'm still indecisive

And she want me to wife it

But I'm undecided"

I finally arrived  the Art Gallery LM Gallery, it was a big building, I wondered how much art they had in there. I was so excited. I called Nick, thankfully he was already here and waiting for me by the door , I gave my keys to the Valet, and I walked to the front seeing Nick standing in his Handsome Glory, I tried hard to stare subtly , I guess I was not so subtle cause he noticed and I saw a smirk on his face before he walked towards me closing the distance between us. He hugged me and I inhaled his intoxicating masculinity. Yum Yum Yum!!!

" You look ravishing Babe" he whispered in my ears ,sending tingling vibes all over my body ,I leaned in a little taking a little advantage of the situation to feel him a little more. And OMG he called me BABE. My good looks is definitely doing good!!

" you look gooo..ood , uh..rmm nice, you.. you look nice" I stuttered my words as I was distracted and I felt so embarrassed, I hope he doesn't tease me about it.

He pulled back and smiled at me. He then locked his hands with mine and took me towards the entrance into the Gallery. I was so amazed by the interior, whoever owned and designed this place really did a good work I was so impressed and we just walked it. I was lost in admiration for a particular Masterpiece. Then he tapped me.I turned to face him and he was smiling down at me.

" it seems you're already enjoying the sites when we haven't entered the main room yet, The are hosting an event tonight ,where they display and appreciate works of New and Established Artists It's going to be fun some of my friends will be here.... So I was wondering if it will be okay if I introduce you to them" he said the latter rather awkwardly, I felt it was cute though. I then smiled at him

" Yeah it would be nice to meet new people, You didn't have to ask"

He then Led me to a room down the hall, and we walked in, I tried had to keep my mouth shut , I was screaming WOW ON THE INSIDE. There where so many people here so types of art and people where here it was so amazing to just look at and I was glad to be part of it. We walked in and started admiring Paintings, They were waiters walking around with glasses that contained wine, there was a local band playing soft tunes in the background. And also different desserts around. It was looking so perfect. Nick seemed to know almost everybody at the event and he introduced me to a lot of his friends and some colleagues. He paid a lot of attention to me, and we were not close to each other I could feel his eyes staring at me. It was nice, I was admiring all the paintings, and I came across one that captivated my attention, it was a painting of someone, inside what I understood as a closed box, the box was illustrated as a broken glass box and surrounded by red dots which I'll assume is blood or something, but I kind of understood the painting, I took a step back and saw a faint painting of a face. Then I felt Someone behind me,I knew who it was from his scent so I didn't have to turn around.

" you seem to have a liking for this portrait"

I smiled

"How did you know",I said slightly turning my head to face him.

"You seemed to admire it longer than the rest , i guessed you were trying to figure it out"

"Yes I was, it looks so complicated, ....

"Yeah,somehow I feel a connection to this painting, I can totally relate" he said with a slight hint of sadness in his voice, if I wasn't paying attention I wouldn't have noticed....

"Me too, just reminds me of a lot" i said sadly. I was ruining the mood.

I was sad now, and I didn't want to ruin his good mood with my bad vibes so I decided to excuse myself to go to the rest room. He directed me towards the rest room it was a little further in the hall . As I walked to the rest room the lights started fluctuating, the current wasn't stable, I didn't care about it, I was busy thinking of my sad life I went into the restroom ,I looked at myself in the mirror I still looked good, I reapplied some gloss to my lips and adjusted my make up, and touched my hair a bit. The lights started again, I suddenly started hearing foot steps,then the light went off completely. I was so scared, I've always hated the darkness, nothing good ever comes with it. I was trying not to freak out, my mum wasn't here, this isn't the basement. I couldn't help it ,I leaned against the wall closed my eyes and sobbed silently. Then I felt strong arms holding me, I was about to scream before the voice spoke

"Shhhhhhh...
