Chapter 38 - Nervous Amy

Amy woke up bright and early despite the fact that she had slept late last night. After returning from Jade's place last night with Lair, she had spent hours searching for a befitting gift to get for Blake. She had only slept for 4 hours and if truth be told, she really felt like sleeping some more. Her 7 hours beauty sleep was something she had been faithful to, but not today. Today was just for Blake and having few hours of sleep isn't a problem at all.

Amy got up from her bed with a smile tugging on her lips as she thought about Blake's gift. Today will be the day Blake begins to notice her...she really prays so. After all this months of crushing on him, she'll finally have an opportunity to do something nice for him and probably get his attention.

Amy felt giddy and nervous at same time. What if he doesn't like the gift? What if he doesn't still notice her after all this? That would be terrible. She was feeling really nervous right now as she stood in front of the mirror.

She rushed over to her bedside table to pick up her phone. She needed to call Jade to give her some words of encouragement.

"You better have a good reason for waking me up so early" Jade said groggily. It was just 5:45am for crying out loud.

"Girlfriend you've got to wake up now" Amy said in a nervous tone which Jade didn't miss as she quickly sat up on her bed.

"What's wrong?" Jade asked with concern. She could hear the nervousness in Amy's voice.

"It's Blake birthday today" Amy said.

"Blake??" Jade asked as she tried to remember who Blake was again. Her eyes lit up when she remembered who he was, "Mr dreamy?" She asked back.

"Yes" Amy nodded as her gripped over her phone tightened. Jade calling him Mr dreamy suddenly make her heart flutter. Blake was indeed dreamy...if not to everyone but at least to her.

His beautiful crystal clear eyes, his cute smile that revealed those cute dimples, the way he curved his lips and winks when he flirts with the staffs...'Oh my God', Amy's heart screamed at the thought of all that.

She was surely going to make a fool of herself if she stood before him.

"Did you get him a gift already?" Jade asked curiously. She wanted to know what kind of gift Amy had gotten for him.

"Yes I did. But what if he doesn't like it?" Amy asked as she lolled herself on the chair by the vanity table.

"What do mean if he doesn't like it? What did you buy?" Jade's curiousity was now piqued.

"Something I like on him" Amy said with a shy smile. That was also one of the many things she loved on him and she couldn't get enough of it when he was close by.

"Tell me"

"Jade that's not why I called you. Do your mind calming magic on me. Cause I'm really nervous right now. Like palm sweating nervous" Amy said desperately.

"Okay stay calm. Just take 3 deep breaths to calm those raging nerves of yours" She said while Amy did exactly that. She took 3 deep breaths but she still felt nervous...in fact, she felt more nervous.

"I don't think it's working" she complained.

"That's because you're not trying hard" Jade told her. "Just stay calm. What's the worst that could happen? Nothing!Don't worry he'll love your gift, trust me. Just take your own advice and look pretty...but Amy, don't over do it" She warned, because trust her Amy can go overboard sometimes when it comes to looking pretty. And it was always Amy advicing her to always look pretty.

"You're sure?" Amy asked nervously.

"Of course baby. So relax and just do what you need to do, everything will be fine" Jade comforted her.

"Okay" Amy said as she took another deep breath.

"Alright baby, go get your man okay" Jade jeered.

"Okay" Amy nodded with a smile tugging on her lips.

"Thanks Jade. I love you"

"I love you too baby" Jade replied before ending the call. She smiled to herself when she imagined Amy's nervous face. Her thought was interjected by her phone's beeping sound.

She picked it up and opened the message she had just received. Her smile slowly dissappeared when she saw it was from an unknown number....the message read..

'Jade please let's meet up".

Jade immediately deleted the message like she hasn't even received it in the first place. She hated strande calls from unfamiliar numbers and mostly strange messages. She got out of bed to get herself ready for work, since she won't be able to sleep anymore.

Amy calmed herself, she knew calling Jade would be helpful. She smiled sheepishly when she remembered Jade's words 'Go get your man'. Soon Blake Beau you will be all mine. She said to herself before she started humming as she made her way to the bathroom.

Soon she came out of the bathroom. She started to get herself ready. She put on a Yellow A-line gown what suited her perfectly. She had her makeup done, not too light and not too heavy...it was just the right amount. She looked at herself in the mirror and....

"Wow..You look beautiful" She turned to see Lair standing by the door.

"Thank you" She replied with a smile. That was enough to confirm she looked okay. It was not easy to receive a decent compliment from this brother of her's.

"You should look this pretty later for the party okay. You never know, you might actually meet a man who'd want your crazy ass" Lair teased her, making her glare at him. He always knows how to ruin the mood.

"But why are you dressed up like this?" Lair asked when he noticed she was a little over dressed for work...like her makeup was a bit different. Amy ignored him as she gathered her stuff for work.

"No way! Don't tell me, you're trying to seduce a man" Amy eyed him as she walked closer to the door where he stood.

"I pray you remain single for a million years" Amy cussed at him before pushing him out of her way. She wasn't going to let any Lair walker get to her this morning, especially this one.

Today has a lot in store for her and she can't start it by being in a bad mood.
