Last night was absolutely FANTASTIC. I had such a good time. I don’t think I’ve ever been that nervous on a date before. I’ve never lost control of myself that way before… I always act like myself but my mind is always spinning with ways to present myself in a more attractive way, but last night? It never even occured to me that I needed to act attractive and classy. I was just myself and it was utterly brilliant. The way he smiled when he looked at me was enough assurance that being myself was just fine. He really likes me for who I am. :) As for what I wore last night ] Black skinny jeans, a sheer white top, my 4-inch white heels (My date is 6’2” … I’m 5’4”) & black leather jacket paired with my favourite Chanel bag. Oh, babyyy <3 | My hair? I got it cut two days ago so it’s chin-length. I had to work on it a bit last night to get some volume at the roots and get that sexy tousled look I’m obsessed with. | Enough about how I looked — HIM!? Oh. Dear. Lord. He was wearing black dress pants with these gorgeous leather shoes (from Italy, he said. No wonder) & a beige v-neck sweater that showed just the right amount of collar bone. Nom nom nom… Have I mentioned how blue his eyes are yet? I haven’t? They’re brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Not only does his face look like it was carved by angels, his eyes are like the ocean. I’ve only been to the ocean once in my entire life, and staring into his eyes reminds me of that one time. They’re that beautiful.

He picked me up at 7 last night and when I asked where we were going, he wouldn’t tell me. He said it was a surprise. The surprise was… His house. As it turns out, he’d spent most of the afternoon baking me a cake. A french chocolate cake. It was as yummy as it was looked. The cake was so pretty I had a hard time beginning to eat it, but once I did, I couldn’t stop. I had a second slice =x He lives in a gigantic house with his mother. His father is a professional baker in France and spends much of his time there. His father taught him how to bake, he said. I wasn’t surprised. When his mom came into the kitchen to look for a snack, I offered some cake, but he stopped me. “No, Mom. This is for her. I’ll make you one later.” —- which was sweet, but I felt bad. After cake, he decided he needed to take me out to a restaurant so we went to Mikado to pig out on some sushi. :) When I got up to pay at the end of the meal, he had such a horrified expression on his face that I sat back down. I’ve never seen that expression on anyone before. Most guys are surprised when a girl tries to pay (I hate it when people pay for me. It’s just a thing I have), but it looked like it REALLY bothered him. It was pretty cute…

After a lot of chit-chat, he drove me back home. We sat in his car (white Acura TL ♥) on my driveway… and that awkward silence crept up on us. That what-do-we-do-now silence. I pulled my guts together, sat up, and looked at him frankly. “I don’t kiss on the first date. Just so you know.” I was absolutely mortified for saying that, but he looked at me in a really strange way before exploding into laughter. Like, a real life LMAO. He smiled at me in a way that made my knees weak and said: “You’re so cute. Okay, fine.” … He started pulling out of the driveway.

“Where are we going…?” o_o

“Back to my house. I’ll bake you another cake. Start a second date. Besides, you look too pretty to let you go back home just yet.”

-Insert dying sounds here- <—- In my head, of course.

We ended up making milkshakes C: Strawberry! No kiss happened, sorry. LOL

After he dropped me off at home, I pretty much jumped into my bed and squealed like a happy piggy. I was a happy piggy ♥ It was roughly midnight when I got home, and around the time I was all snuggled up in bed, he gave me a call. We stayed on the phone until 5AM. I have another date with him on Tuesday. WHEE!
