The text told me to go to my dressing room. In there I found a riddle...

         You hate me, despise me even...
But I'm never far...

Of course! It's so simple. I run all the way to the set of Mackenzie Falls and find it set up in a stupidly romantic scene. Oliver looks at me as he pulls out a chair, "Are you ready for our date?" I let out a childish giggle as I sit down at the table. Oliver calls over a server to our table. The server sets down two plates of spaghetti.

First dates are always awkward. Back in Wisconsin I went on a date with this boy named Patrick McCannon. He was a cute country boy who I felt speechless around. We went on a date to a nice country themed restaurant in town. It started out as a night like no other. Next thing I know he gets a call from the cheerleader captain. He left me alone at the restaurant, crying into a bowl of breadsticks.

But Oliver isn't like that guy. He kept me laughing and truly was a magical night. After our spaghetti we walked around the set of McKenzie Falls. Oliver showed me where his characters desk is as he sat down in it. He pointed to the desk next to him, "No one sits it that one..." I blush as I sit down. "You know, Chad said that he could get me a part in the show." Oliver perks up, "That's.. great! Amazing!" He sounds a bit scared but I brush it off.

I look around the set that once ran rampant with spoiled teens, but now has mature adults. Oliver stares at me, "So... is it true? Did you and Chad date for nearly a year?" I let out a sigh, "Yeah... but we weren't a match. He was too self absorbed." Oliver nods his head, "Yeah I see where you're coming from. I heard he carries around a little mirror in his pocket." We both giggle at this.

We both fall silent as we stare into each other's eyes. "W-wow... your eyes are so... brown." Oliver mutters. I giggle, "If you want to kiss me just do it." Oliver and I start to lean in for our kiss when suddenly...

"Hey! What are you kids doing on this set!?" We didn't know how much time has passed. Oliver grabs my wrist and we run out of the Mackenzie Falls studio. We shoot straight into the So Random lot, ducking in and out of rooms. We run into a room that we're setting up for our new sketch. The sketch is a romantic comedy scene which takes place on a mountain that overlooks a nice big city. On the floor there's a classic picnic blanket with a basket next to it.

Oliver gestures towards the floor in a dork-ish gentleman way. I sit down on the blanket and look at our fake night set as Oliver sits down next to me. "This is our romantic comedy scene. We're planning on-" and before I could finish my sentence I hear a snap. I look over to see Oliver prying his hand out of a mouse trap. "Oh my gosh! I forgot to tell you not to touch the basket!" I help pry Oliver's fingers out of the trap and he clutching his hand in pain.

I grab his hand, "Does the big strong man need me to kiss it and make it all better?" I ask him. Oliver nods his head while giving me big ol' puppy eyes. Right before I kiss his finger, he moves his hands behind my head and pulls me in for a kiss. It feels like... pure bliss... I instantly melt into it.

After a few seconds we pull away and look into each other's eyes. I manage to sputter out something coherent like, "Wow..." Oliver giggles before looking away, "Wow it's midnight.." Oliver states. I immediately shoot up off the blanket, "Shit! I have to get up at 5 am tomorrow!" I exclaim. Oliver gets up and follows me out the door and to my car, "I can pick you up tomorrow if you want." He says. I nod my head, "Pleeeaaaase." I whine to Oliver. He chuckles as we wave goodbye.

By time I got home the memories from the date came flooding in. I immediately begin squealing. I have to tell Tawni all about it tomorrow.
