A car stopped in front of a boutique, a very expensive one. Her brows creased, wondering why he stopped here.
"Why are we stopping here?" Ari asked and he faced her.
"You wanted to go to the party right? Shouldn't you go shopping?" he asked her and her eyes flew wide.
"Really? You almost made me think you've changed your mind"
"I wouldn't do that" 'Not until I know why you want to go so badly' he said the rest internally. Arianna was already beaming in excitement, and she quickly climbed off the car. He got down as well, and they walked hand in hand into the building, the worker's greeted them. They walked around, Ryan mainly doing the search. He picked a dress and tossed it towards the staff. He kept picking clothes for her, not letting her even make a choice. She just followed. When he was satisfied with the many clothes he chose, he asked her to try them. The staff led her to the changing room while Ryan relaxed on the couch.
She came out after a few minutes, walking to him like she was in a fashion show. She made numerous poses and Ryan just watched, a small smile curved on his face. He would nod at the ones he liked - the ones that fit her perfectly, and would shake his head at the ones he don't. But one made his heart stop beating when he saw her in that dress. That glittering red, one-shoulder, long-sleeved, high-low dress. And her long slender legs in that silver ankle-strap heels. She took his breath away, and caused his world to stop. His girlfriend is just so very beautiful. He stood and walked to her, slow and steady, as if counting his steps without tearing his gaze from her.
Ryan leaned down and spoke in her ears. "I want to see you in this tomorrow" he whispered and she could feel her cheeks burning.
"First tell me how I look" she said, nibbling the insides of her lips.
"I can't explain" was all he said and walked back to the couch. She bit her lips to stop herself from smiling. Why the hell does she want to smile? She walked back to the changing room and wore her clothes back, and then she came out.
"I'm done" she told him.
"Okay. I'll buy it....all of them" he said, and the staff nodded and left to package them.
Arianna tugged his shirt "Ryan, isn't it too much?" she asked. Those clothes were just too many. Even when they were reduced, they're still many.
"I don't mind spending my money on you, girlfriend" he smiled at her and her eyes fluttered. She lowered her eyes, smiling shyly. After Ryan paid for the clothes, they headed out immediately. Arianna's hands were just so full with bags, that she was struggling slightly.
"Let me get that for you" he offered, but the silly girl refused.
"Don't worry, I can manage"
"I insist" he took all the bags from her "Heavy stuffs like this aren't good for your delicate hands" he flashed a smile and walked towards the car. He just keeps flattering her too much that her cheeks had grown red. She cupped her cheeks and followed behind, smiling widely. When she got into the car, she faced him and said "Thank you, Ryan"
"You're welcome, sweetheart" he pinched her red cheeks lightly and then started the car and rode away.

Zayden dropped Jana over at her place. It was surprising that a royal Prince like him, was gaping at a house that doesn't even reach the kind he lives in.
"This is were you live?" he asked, mouth open. She wondered why he was awestruck because she knew he was someone from a high class. Even if he never told her what he does, she knew he was from a rich family. And a place like hers can't be compared to the mansion they live in.
"Yes" she answered.
"Wow, this place is just so cozy, and beautiful" he said, honestly. He really wished he could live like this. His life is just too extravagant, and he doesn't like it, though he's a prince.
"Today was so fun. I liked it" Jana said and he finally looked at her.
"I'm glad you did" he flashed a smile, his sweet smile that cause hearts to race.
Jana took in air. Well, to stop the heart that started racing seeing this man's smile that's just so gorgeous. "Alright, I'll be going in now" he didn't say a word, instead he just gaze while his smile faded. He didn't want to part with her, he didn't want to go but.... he can't let her stay all night with him. And he can't invite her to his place because he doesn't even have one here. What is he even thinking? Right now, they are just friends. She wouldn't spend a night at his house at all. His gaze got deep, and intense, and the next moment, she was enveloped in the warmth of his arms.
It started again, her racing heart. Her face flushed, her body tingled and butterflies grew in her stomach. This man.... How could his single hug affect her this much?
"I'd miss you, Jana" his voice was deep, and she bit her lips and closed her eyes. All she wanted was to remain under the warmth of his arms, like that's where she belonged. He was different and straightforward. His beauty alone made her ogle and drool, - a thing she had never done before. His voice was just so manly and gorgeous, even his smile - it's heart-racing.
Zayden pulled away, and she really fought the urge to hug him again and never let go.
"Goodnight, Jana" his smile was so sweet and again, she couldn't find her voice. She nodded awkwardly, turning around, she walked into the house briskly, biting her lips in the process. With a knowing smile, he walked into his car and drove away.
