I love her. More than she’ll probably ever know.
“Chloe?”
She looks at me again. “Yeah?”
After pausing the show, I sit up. She also sits up, her eyes full of confusion. I take her hands. “Chloe, would you like to go on a date with me?”
A sweet smile tickles her mouth. “Yes, Liam! I’d love to go on a date with you.” She bends closer and kisses my cheek.
I want to pull her close and show her just how much she means to me, but we have all the time in the world.
She lays her head on my chest and I wrap my arm around her, tugging her close as we continue watching our favorite show.
Chapter Forty-One
Chloe
“Ooh, is that what you’re wearing to your hot date with Liam?” Ava gushes as I do a spin on video chat. It’s a light pink flowy dress with a matching belt.
“Yeah. Do you think it’s pretty enough? He said he’s taking me to a fancy restaurant in Silverton.”
“Of course it’s pretty!” Lily says. “And you’re even prettier.”
“Agreed!” Willow beams.
“Thanks.” I press my hands to my hot cheeks. “Guys, I can’t believe this is actually happening. I’m going on adatewith Liam.”
“I told you that you guys are perfect for each other,” Lily says, nothing but joy in her eyes. “This is the best thing ever. I’m so happy for you! You guys are soulmates.”
“You think so?”
“Duh!” they all say.
Every part of me warms up. I’m so thankful my friends support me and Liam.
“I’m super nervous,” I admit. “Liam and I have never been on a date before. What if things are awkward?”
“They won’t be,” Willow reassures me. “Just enjoy every second with him and don’t worry about anything. You guys will have a great time.”
Ava and Lily nod with large smiles.
I blow out some nervous air. They’re right. This evening will be amazing because I’ll spend it with an incredible person.
A text from Liam appears on the screen. I gasp. “Guys, he’s here!”
“What are you waiting for?” Ava demands. “Go to your guy!”
“Have a great time, Chloe!” Lily tells me.
“And enjoy every second,” Willow reminds me.
I smile. “Thanks, guys. I’ll text you later how it went.”
I check myself in the mirror one more time before taking a deep breath, letting it out, and making my way downstairs.
Evie’s car is waiting in front of my house. It’s quite chilly today, so I bundle myself up pretty well. But the warmth in my heart at seeing Liam step out of the car makes me toasty inside.
He’s also bundled up in a warm coat, but a suit peeks out from underneath.
