He arrived home her words in his mind, caught like a fly in a web. Why would he kill her? Or was it the fact she thought he was getting her to a ball? That thought did came up to him at first but he forgot about it after a while. He closed the door while pressing the button of his voicemail. you got six missed calls. he rolled his eyes. The voicemail played the messages one by one. First one was bree. ’’ hello, Fred? Why aren’t you picking up?’’ her voice was sad. Second was his friend who dropped off the car at Caroline’s place. Then a few more calls from bree as he pushed the button o shut the thing up.
He walked into the shower and his cell phone rang. He grabbed it quickly. ‘’ Hello?’’ he asked as it was Bree, not such a miracle. ‘’ Hi, do you mind? I’m in the shower and I have a , appointment, in two hours. ‘’ he said a little annoyed. She got all freaked out. ‘’ just call me back in at least one hour alright? ‘’ he said as she agreed for once. He didn’t understand her quiet well so he just got showered and dressed up in jeans and a shirt with a motor cycle jacket. Then his phone rang again, it was Bree. She wanted to see him tomorrow. ‘’ I’ll be there. ‘’ he promised which made her happy and he wanted her to promise to not him again.
He dropped the phone on the couch and took the cabriolet to Caroline’s house. It was exactly eight and he just stood there waiting for her. For some he was prince charming, for some he wasn’t but the kiss on his cheek was still there burning on his skin. He liked her, and Bree made it impossible to like her more. He rang the bell and had his sunglasses on. The sun wasn’t down yet and he was dressed for wearing them, and he had blue contacts, which lasts for more then three days. He waited and smiled holding a white rose in his hands.

When Caroline got home, she’d instantly checked every room in the house to see if her mom had come home yet. She hadn’t expected her to, so it kept her from getting disappointed when she found the house as empty as always. she sighed and took the box with the dress in and headed upstairs. she had about two hours to get ready. She stripped out of her day clothes and turned on the shower, letting the water get nice and hot before stepping in. she used a tropical smelling showergell, then some more for good measure.
When she was done she blow-dried her hair and braded it into a loose, casual braid. She didn’t put much make up on, just some blush, a slightly winged out liner and a sheer pink lipstick. It was enough for her to look awake and natural and match the summery dress. When she put it on she was stunned. It hugged her body beautifully and added curves where needed, yet the design was so simple. She found a pair of silver gladiator sandals and the necklace she’d gotten. It lay there, just below her collarbone, twinkling when the dim light in her room hit it.
she’d just sprayed a mist of perfume with a girly but sexy scent and walked through it, when she heard the bell. She ran downstairs, stopped right in front of the door just to tug at her dress and take a deep breath, but when she opened the door she very well lost it again. “hi,” she breathed, a huge smile lidding up her face. Richard looked…well, words failed her. he seemed even more handsome, if that is possible, than he did the same afternoon. In his hand he held a white rose, and she gladly accepted it. it smelled lovely. “You look amazing.” She blushed as she said it; she wasn’t used to complimenting the opposite sex. “So, lead the way, Handsome prince.” She teased and held her hand out, expecting him to take it.

The evening was young and when she came out he all shined. ‘’ you look gorgeous, but that’s no surprise to me.’’ He smiled as she took the rose. She smelled it and reached her hand out to him so he took it friendly and kissed her hand. ‘’ I like that title. ‘’ he said smiling and took her to his car. ‘’ I hope you like it. ‘’ he said with a chuckle. He then pressed a button on his key which closed the roof. ‘’ just in case you love your haircut?’’ he smiled kissing her cheek. He opened her door and gestured her in. He winked and got on the drivers seat. He smiled as he started the engine.
Richard smiled and drove their way to the beach. He looked at her, she looked amazing. He smiled and arrived at the port Angeles beach party. ‘’ here we are, we might just be at the party for ten minutes unless you wanna stay any longer talking to others? Or we can skip the ten minutes and go to the beach side where we can do a stroll , just you and me. ‘’ he smiled and got out to help her out of the car. He was not sure what to say about her , just when he met her he wanted to stay around her, and it was not her blood that made him stay.
He would follow the damn diet, he would keep his brown eyes and she would love him, well he hoped she would. Maybe a little romance didn’t hurt. He sighed and smiled. ‘’ So miss Caroline, what will it be tonight, because tonight is all yours. ‘’ he winked.

She’d only ever read of dates like these and dreamed herself away to a world where she had a life like that, and now, for one night, she had that and it was everything she’d expected and more. Richard was charming as always, giving her compliments and looking at her as if she was a princess. Oh yes, she did notice. She’d never felt less than pretty, and was not conceited about it, but it was still nice to get the attention.
They arrived at the Port Angeles beach, and she could feel the nervousness spread like fire through her body. She’d never been with this many people; Bodies dancing closely to the beat of the music, leaving footprints in the sand. Richard asked her if she wanted to stay there a couple of minutes, and her eyes lingered at the many people before she met his gaze. at first she wanted to tell him to skip those ten minutes, but then she looked at him and didn’t want to be a wuss. “Sure, we’ll stay. If they’re friends of yours, they can’t be bad.” She answered with a smile. She was really looking forward to that stroll.
they got out of the car and she held his arm with both of hers, clinging closely to him as they walked. She had taken her sandals off, and the sand felt nice and cool beneath her feet. ‘’ So miss Caroline, what will it be tonight, because tonight is all yours. ‘’ Richard said. She actually giggled, which she’d never done before. It was silly. Her hand slid further down his arm till it found his hand, wrapping her fingers around his. She blushed a bit, but it was getting darker, so she doubted he’d see. “what about a dance?” she murmured. “I must warn you, though. I’m not very good.” She said with a playful smile and pulled him with her between the dancing bodies.

Her smile was amazing, almost crushing. He smiled at her but she seemed nervous. He smiled as she clanged to his side. He kissed her hand softly and smiled. '' They work here tonight, so you get free drinks because of me. '' he chuckled and walked with her. Then she asked him to dance and h nodded. '' sure why not. '' he smiled and walked with her to the crowd.
She dragged him there as she assured him she wasn't such a great dancer. He smiled. '' no problem. '' he chuckled and spinned her around as he let her dance the way she danced. '' I'm not that amazing either. Did some break dance in the past. '' he chuckled. He smiled and danced along with the music. She was gorgeous, and he liked to stare more then move himself , but he danced, and he did it pretty well, never thought of it.

Everything was amazing; Richard’s hands on her hips as they danced the feel of sand under her feet, the dress, the people there and, oh, the almost touchable atmosphere. She didn’t know why she’d been nervous, because no one was staring at her like she didn’t belong there. Well, someone was staring. It was magic, really. Put her in a nice dress, slap some make up on and send her spinning into Richard’s arms, and boom! Boys were noticing her. a couple of good looking boys stood a few meters away talking to each other, clearly about her, and when she looked at them they waved and smiled. She smiled back, surprised as she was, but she didn’t forget who she was with. She looked up at Richard. He was a good dancer, or maybe she was just plain bad at it. “so… this is nice.” She said, smiling up at him. The song ended and a new, slower one started. She stepped closer to him, letting him take the lead.
“Richard? Do you, um,” she struggled for a way to express herself in the right way. “do this often? With a girl, I mean.” She asked, looking down at their feet, hers small with baby pink nails and his just a tad bigger. A huge tad bigger, at that. “I-I’m just wondering, you know. You don’t seem likely to be single. “ she explained. “Not that I think you’re a man whore or anything. “she added hastily, then laughed at her own stupidity. “maybe we should take that walk now.”

She was a pretty good dancer, even if she told him she wasn’t. Guys were noticing her, and he was just happy for her. Richard smiled as the song ended softly. She got closer to him and he just watched her. She asked if he did this with other girls, like he did with her. He shook his head. ‘’ not at all, I usually never go out with other girls. I’m single, and I’m not cheating or lying.’’ He promised and smiled her way. She looked down instead and he got worried.
The man whore comment made him laugh. She really thought about these things. Then she offered the walk and he nodded. He took her hand and walked with her on the lonesome beach. Her smile was all he wanted to see. So he walked with her holding her hand. It was a romantic picture. He never really thought about these things, dating girls , it all seemed unimportant, but Caroline was different.
Different then any other girls. He had a lot of sexy female friends, just like he never forgot Lydia, but he had to move on, they all had to move on. Eventually. Richard kept walking with her and smiled her way. ‘’ so, are there things you want to know from me more then what you just asked?’’ he asked her smiling, he couldn’t help it but trying to access her curiosity. He looked at the water, it was calm and didn’t really bother to be wild.

she was surprised at his answer, and she regretted ruining the romance with her question when they were dancing. and of course she had to say 'man whore'. brilliant. but he laughed, and the atmosphere turned light again. she loved how he smiled when laughing, the carelessness of it all. the way his shoulders were shaking slightly under her hands.
they walked along the beach, hand in hand, romantic as that sounds. there was a 'spark' -or whatever they say- between them, and she was pretty sure she wasn't just imagining that. ‘’ so, are there things you want to know from me more then what you just asked?’’ he finally asked. she squeezed his cold hand tighter, trying to warm it while thinking about her answer. "hmm...well, yeah. I don't know where to start. I want to know everything; what kind of food you like, what kind of music you listen to, what kind of things that makes your skin crawl," she ranted, swaying their hands back and forth between them, like little kids. "But I'm afraid that'll scare you away." she almost whispered, as if saying it aloud would make him unreal. "I've never... done this before. being asked on a date and all is a first for me. and," she stopped walking and turned to face him, her eyes reflecting the water. "I've never been kissed." she finished. would that make him think of her as a loser? would he turn and walk away for her lack of experience, or would he find it desirable to have her first kiss? they were so close, and she could just lean in and press her lips to his. she looked down, her breathing a little faster, "I'm sorry. um, are you cold?" she asked to break the tension.

the moonlight was shining and the nightfall was gorgeous. He looked at Caroline, of course carefully and gently. she said she wanted to know everything, everything was a lot. '' italian food, all kinds of music and I'm not easily scared. '' he chuckled and looked at her. She became more shy at the minute, their hands swinging back and forth.
He smiled and looked at her. then she said what was wrong and he smiled stopping in front of her. His eyes trying to catch hers and he smiled. '' you can't scare me. '' he said softly brushing her cheek with his hand. this was her first date, she'd never been kissed or in a situation like this.
She was gorgeous. He leaned forward and pressed his lips softly on hers. He broke the kiss softly and smiled while his lips were brushing on hers. '' I'm not freezing, but feeling your skin, you are. '' he spoke softly and grabbed his jacked and gave it to her as a friend of his came by with a bucket of water all over Richard.
Very charming. He sighed smiling checking if the water hit her and took off his shirt. He threw it in the sand and sighed smiling. '' i hate that guy. '' he chuckled. '' wanna walk again? '' he asked her softly.

his lips were soft and only ever so gently touching hers, their breath mingling. so this was how it felt like to be kissed. her nerves disappeared and her arms went around his neck and her hands brushed the soft hair in the back of his head. it wasn't a hungry, needy kiss with gasps and moans, but soft and romantic, and very, very dizzying. He broke away first and she felt him smile against her lips. she opened her eyes and looked at him in wonder, then she smiled too while soft pink colored her cheeks. "Wow." she whispered and bit her lower lip. it still tasted sweetly of Richard. she dropped her arms to her sides again and took a step back.
'' I'm not freezing, but feeling your skin, you are. '' he said and handed her his jacket so she could wear it around her shoulders. he was such a gentleman, and she was sure he didn't want to push her. just then, some random guy decided it would be fun to soak Richard and ruin the moment. she squeaked as small drops of cold water stained the front of her dress.
she looked at Richard.He was, poor guy, all wet and dripping. she watched with big eyes as he took his shirt off and threw it carelessly on the sand. "I hate that guy." he chuckled. Just a moment ago she'd thought she did too, but seeing a little bit more of Richard, she sent a mental thank you to the guy. he asked her if she wanted to keep on walking, but she'd gotten other plans. she found the hem of the dress skirt and drew it over her head (she had, of course, underwear on). she then threw it in the sand next to his shirt, grinning wildly. "why don't you," she poked his chest playfully, "try to catch me." and with that she took of for the waves. water splashed everywhere around her and she threw her head back and laughed delightfully.

Richard really could kill the guy as the boy laughed at him. '' I'll get your ass for this. '' richard chuckled as the guy winked and took off. then he turned to Caroline , her dress was wet. Damnit! though she didn't hate her view, she took off her dress. Never been on a date huh? well she was going to good way. She smiled at him as she wanted him to catch her.
Alright, running in human slowness, not his best skill. But he tried and sometimes fake fell in the sand and then got up again to grab her around her waist. '' gotcha. '' he said with a chuckle and kissed her cheek. Then he released her and winked as he took off a bit. '' your turn.'' he called and smirked.
He looked at how she looked, she was all around gorgeous, and not because she was half naked and soaked. He didn't dislike the view, and he didn't complain either. He just smiled splashing around falling in the water, getting up and laugh like a real boy of his own age.

She’d always been a fast runner, but she’d underestimated Richard. Sure, he joked around, tripping on purpose, but he was fast alright. She laughed as he caught her, and she splashed some more water on him. Their hair was dripping, and the water wasn’t all that warm either, but it was worth it. Dating was fun.
She didn’t want him to let go, but that was only a bigger reason for her to catch him when he told her to. “Not fair! You’ve got more muscle!” she laughed and flecked her biceps like a wrestler. She took off after him, and boy was it hard to run in the water. She didn’t have to chase him for long, though, because he was falling and splashing around in the water like a kid. It was so funny to watch, and she laughed with him and joined in the splashing.
She threw her arms around his neck “You run like a girl.” She teased before letting go and pushed her wet hair back from her face, shivering as the wet hair touched her back and shoulders. She hugged herself, not because she was embarrassed for her lack of clothing (well, she was a little bit) but because it was starting to get really cold when the adrenaline had run out. She looked back at the beach where the others had made a fire and some sat huddled around it. “That’s nice.” She said, “my dad used to take me to the beach back home in Sweden. “ She could remember warm summer evenings at the beach in Arjeplog, grilling marshmallows and hotdogs. She realized she hadn’t told Richard that she was half Swedish or that her dad was dead. Maybe it wasn’t a first date thing to talk about, so she mentally shrugged it off. “Maybe we should join them? If you didn’t have other plans, that is.” She smiled up at him and took his hand.

Richard was soaked and really needed some dry clothes or warmth. He watched her jumping on him telling hum he was running like a girl. Thats not fair! He chuckled and lifted her in his arms. '' let's see who runs like a girl. '' he winked and smiled. '' close your eyes. '' he whispered and ran vampire speed to the campfire sitting down between people as he smiled. '' are you asleep already?'' he chuckled and waited for her to open her eyes. He looked around not joining many conversations.
He still had her in his arms, on his lap now though but she was still there. He stroked her cheek with his hand and looked at some people laughing. '' hey watch it dude, no laughing at my girl. '' he said joking but serious. Some stopped laughing others started a new conversation. Richard didn't care she sat there in her underwear. He was with her so she was fine. He took his jacket from some other guy who kept it for him and gave it to Caroline.

She felt the warmth of the fire before she saw it. She slowly opened her eyes and looked straight into his. Her heart had a problem with slowing down and she could barely hear the waves over the pulse in her ears. People were laughing and joking about, but sitting there in Richard’s lap, she didn’t pay them much attention. It was like they were in a little bubble. “That… was really fast. Amazingly fast. How did you do that?” she whispered under her breath. She wondered if he’d done a lot of running. Maybe he was playing a sport, that would explain the speed and that fit body.
a guy commented Caroline’s clothes , or lack thereof, and Richard, her knight in shining armor said “hey watch it ,dude. No laughing at my girl.” He said it jokingly, but there was an amount of seriousness about it too. She accepted the jacket Richard handed her and put it around her shoulders. She felt awfully small in it, and even smaller in his lap. She leaned her head on his chest, tucked under his chin. “I’m your girl?” she said with a smile in her voice and poked his side. “Maybe we should go back to my place. You know, dry or clothes and maybe watch a movie? My mom is out of town.” She asked him, and felt how tempting it was at she said it.
