Echo had tried on everything in her closet trying desperately for this night to be perfect. Even though Lucian had seen her many time around the office, even that one week when she had the flu, this time was different. This time he wasn’t just going to she her as some assistant, this time he was going to see her as his date ans no ordinary outfit could do that justice. She had finally settled on an outfit, a black low-cut dress that was the perfect cleavage to modest ratio in her opinion, and some red lipstick, As she heard a know on the door she quickly put on her shoes and rushed to the door, tripping over some stray clothes on the way. She opened the door and was immediate graced with the face that had occupied her mind since their kiss. She still couldn’t believe this was all real, she had half expected to wake up this morning and have it all be a dream. “Well, Mr. Winter you look dashing, you certainly do not disappoint.” She smiled at him as she leaned against the door frame. She was about to invite him inside but then remembered the mess that currently was her bedroom and decided against it. Boy, he would really hear about that from Lottie later. “I would invite you in but my roommate has the, uh,flu.” She quickly came up with an excuse, surprised at her quick thinking. “Yeah, the flu, really terrible like quarantine, only let her touch disposable things kind of stuff.” She said maybe giving away too much information. “Anyways, let’s go huh?” She said getting up grabbing her purse and closing the door. @luc-ian
