Terry had been sitting on the couch for the past fifteen minutes just staring at the floor. He was a nervous wreck and had been going over and over everything he planned on doing and saying that night. He wanted it to be perfect. He needed it to be perfect.
The sound of the knock at the door made his head snap up and his stomach do a nervous flip. She was here. It was really happening. Sure, she'd been over before, but... this time was different.
Standing up, Terry checked his reflection in the mirror near the door before opening it and grinning at Mandy. His voice caught in his throat as he looked at her, but he managed to say, "Come in. You look wonderful." Gorgeous, really.
