Life goes on

Summer had come and gone. September was now here and in full swing. It was the start of my favorite season, fall. Things had been going really well lately. J. and I had been talking and hanging out like old times. I had even met his new girlfriend and she seemed great for him. She might actually be the one for him. J. and Aaron have even been getting a long great.

I was on my way home from class when my cell phone rang. It was Aaron.

"Hey handsome," I said into the phone as a smile appeared on my face.

"Hey sexy," he replied. "Are you home yet?," he asked.

"Just about," I said. We kept chatting until I got home at which point I told him I was finally home.

"There is a box in front of your door. Once you get to it and see what's inside call me back."

I didn't even have a chance to asked him what he was talking about because he hung up. Confused and a little curious, I rushed to my front door and sure enough there was a box with a red bow on it. But that wasn't it. Next to it was a vase with a dozen red roses and a yellow one in the middle. I picked everything up and smiled. I walked into my apartment and set everything down.

Now to see what was in the box. I untied the ribbon and lifted the top of the box off. Inside was a gorgeous red strapless dress. I held it out and admired it. Red satin. It was gorgeoud. There was also a black velvet box. Inside that box was a diamond tennis bracelet. I could not believe my eyes.

I quickly dug around my purse for my cell phone and called Aaron back. "What is all this about?," I asked him.

"Change into the dress, make sure you wear your new bracelet and I will be over there to pick you up in two hours," he said and hung up again.

I was not going to question it. I did what I was told. But I must admit I was getting a little upset by the constant hanging up on me.

I took a nice long shower and made sure my legs were super smooth. I put that killer red dress on, and made sure I had some killer lingerie underneath. I went with a strapless black lacy bra and the matching lacy boy shorts. To finish the look off I pair it with my black stilettos. I knew how much he loved my hair down, so I curled it and left it down.

I was ready to go and a little nervous too. I was sitting there fidgeting when I heard the door. I walked up and opened it, and I could not believe my eyes. Standing before me was Aaron standing with a suit and tie on. He looked good enough to eat. I licked my lips at the sight of him. He had another dozen roses in his hands. He leaned down, wrapped me up in his arms and kissed me deeply and passionately. I really thought my knees were going to buckle. He let go of me, and looked me up and down.

"My God A., you look gorgeous. So, did you like your gifts?," he asked shyly.

"I loved them," I said. "But was is this for?"

"Come on," he led by the hand out of my apartment shutting the door behind us. "I've got plans for us tonight."
