Stella's Point of View -
I can't believe Elijah asked me out on a real date. My heart flutters with excitement as I glance at my reflection in the mirror, unable to contain my smile. After trying on several outfits, I settled on a black floral dress that falls mid-thigh. Putting my hair in a messy bun and applying light makeup, I give myself a final once-over.
Looking pretty, I think to myself, feeling a surge of confidence.
Slipping into my white sneakers and grabbing my purse, I step outside to find Elijah leaning against his car, looking absolutely breathtaking. My eyes linger on him, completely mesmerised. As I approach him, taking in how incredible he looks in his black shirt and jeans, he finally looks up from his phone, our eyes meeting. My heart skips a beat, just like it always does. A smile spreads across his face, mirroring the dazed expression on my own.
"You look so beautiful, Stella," he says, causing a blush to rise to my cheeks as a reflexive response.
