listen to the song when you see the signal!

I SAT IN MY COTTAGE eying my cotillion dress. I wasn't sure if I even wanted to go, I couldn't even look any of them in the eyes. There was knock on my door, I stood up quickly, hoping it was my dad or my mom telling me that I didn't have to go to cotillion.

I opened the door to see Jay, standing there with roses and a radio, he looks at me sadly before handing me the roses.

"Can I come in?" He says and I nod hesitantly.

I was going to give him a chance to redeem himself even if I was angry with him. I opened the door, and let him in closing the door behind me.

He places the radio down and pressed the button to turn it on.

(play the song)

The song that was playing was my favorite song, I remembered I mentioned that to Jay when we went to get ice cream. Jay began mouthing the lyrics goofily, I held in my laugh watching him dance around and sing, he came over to me grabbing my hands and spun me around.

We danced until the music dialed down and Jay looked at me with sorrow written on his features. He pulled me close and looked into my eyes, his brown orbs nearly making me melt.

"I will never lie to you again. Ever. I'm sorry, I should have told you." He said cupping my cheeks.

I smiled happily hugging him, kissing his cheek. He smiled as he grabbed my hands after we pulled away, he then looked nervous like he wanted to tell me something.

"Tess." He spoke softly.

"Yes?" I asked looking at him confused.

"Will you be my date to cotillion, and possibly be my girlfriend." He said and I nearly screamed as I kissed him.

"Yes! Jay you know how long I've been waiting for you to ask that?" I say excitedly as I kissed him again.

I know I said, "I'm done with Jay" but something told me to give him a second chance.

"Okay, you look beautiful, but I have to go get ready. I can't go to cotillion looking like this, Evie'll kill me." He smiled pecking my lips before quickly leaving my cottage.

The next person to come through the door was my mother with a knowing smirk on her face.

"Who is the handsome young fellow who just walked out the door?" She asked and I smiled at her.

"My boyfriend, Jay." I say butterflies arising in my stomach as I said that.
