As my car pulled into the driveway I began to shake. This was not something I would usually do and because of that I had not told anyone I was doing it. Today was the day that I would meet the girl of my dreams, technically that day happened a few months ago when we met online, but this was the first time I would be able to look at her face to face. I ran a hand over my freshly buzzed head and took a deep breath. Opening the car door I stepped out and walked to the front door.
I saw that my hand was trembling slightly as I pushed the doorbell. Almost the moment the chimes sounded the door opened up. She was just what I was expecting. Considering we traded pictures for quite a while there were few surprises. Mainly I did not expect her to take my breath away wearing a simple t-shirt and lounge pants.
"Hi," she said with a cute little smile.
"Hi," I held out my hand. "Eric."
"Faith," she shook my offered hand. "Now that we have been properly introduced, would you like to come in?"
Following her in, I noticed that things were impeccably clean. I smiled at her and she shrugged. We walked to the living room where I joined her on the couch. Sitting there we looked at each other and smiled.
"I didn't realize how much three inches was," I said with a crooked grin.
"Are you calling me short?" she asked with mock anger. "Five-six isn't exactly tall."
I chuckled and scooted slightly closer to her. "I didn't think this would ever actually happen. I thought about it a lot."
"Really?" she said moving closer to me.
"There is something I've wanted to do for a while now." I reached over and lightly traced her jaw line with my finger.
