Intro
The bass from Ella’s speaker filled her bedroom while she stood in front of her mirror, staring at herself.
Black dress.
Hair curled.
Lip gloss.
She adjusted the necklace around her neck for the third time.
From her bed, her phone lit up.
Jake ❤️
Outside.
A smile slipped onto her face instantly.
She grabbed her purse and hurried downstairs.
The second she opened the front door, Jake was leaning against his car under the streetlight, hands in his pockets.
His eyes lifted toward her.
For a second, he just stared.
Then he smirked.
“Dang,” he said softly. “You’re trying to make everyone at this party jealous?”
Ella rolled her eyes, trying not to smile too hard.
“Shut up.”
Jake walked over and tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
“No, seriously.” He looked at her for a second longer. “You look beautiful.”
Her heart skipped.
She didn’t know it yet—
but tonight would be the night she’d replay in her head for a very long time
