“She’s taking forever. How long does it take to get ready for a date?” Winnie mutters, taking her time to put on her earrings — a shimmery set of pearls that Cairo gifted her for her eighteenth birthday.

A quiet chuckle leaves Cairo’s lips, and she rests her book on the nightstand. Her girlfriend was never the patient type. “Please, don’t rush her. She told us that she wanted to try something new, so give her a moment.” She reminds her with a firm but gentle glance.

“I’m not saying it to be mean, babe. I just miss her. She’s been in the bathroom for nearly three hours and hasn’t said a word to us since then.” Winnie adjusts her hair with a slight frown on her face.

Cairo chuckles as she gets off the bed and moves behind Winnie, moving to help her with her hair. “You’re so needy, Win.” She teases with a knowing look, making Winnie let out a huff. “Can’t go a single day without her, huh?” She runs her fingers through her girlfriend’s dark brown locks, untangling any knots with ease.

Ten minutes pass before the bathroom door opens and you finally step out. Cairo and Winnie’s heads snap in your direction, nearly getting whiplash, and their jaws drop to the floor.

The dress you are wearing is a short, fitted black dress that displays your elegant figure. The silk-like fabric outlines your curves and clings to your body in all the right places, hugging your figure perfectly. The hem falls just above your knees, showing off your long, smooth legs.

“Wow, baby.” Winnie whispers while she stands frozen in place. She feels like her brain has melted because of how beautiful you are. Meanwhile, Cairo hasn’t said a word yet. She's blown away by the look you chose for tonight. She can’t find the strength to look away, feeling completely drawn to you.
