Day Summary: Valerie's mom picked her up early and they went to her dentist appointment, Valerie founds out that she has perfect teeth, which excited her. But today was the day she had a bunch of homework, she was ready to shower to go to sleep.
Valerie went to her room after taking a shower and sat on the edge of her twin bed. She takes out the white box filled with envelopes Tony given her, and the pink iPod Nano that was stationed on her night stand. She pulled out Envelope Four, ripping the flap open, taking out the pink index card.
She goes to her iPod Nano and pressed track four and a song started playing and she read the index card, but she gasped when the song started playing.
Track four: Then I started liking you, so I asked you out
The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You're the kind of reckless that should send me running
But I kinda know that I won't get far
And you stood there front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of

"Drop everything now! Meet me in the pouring rain! Kiss me in the sidewalk, take away the pain!" Valerie was whipping her hair around as she sang. "Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile!"
Like it was yesterday, Valerie smiled at the memory of when Tony asked her out. It was in an elaborate way, sort of, well, he wrote her a letter.
1- Go to five, I have something asked you
2- I'm so nervous, go to four
3- Last time, here we go, don't get mad at me, go to six
4- okay, okay, I need to man up, nah, go to three
5- Wil- shit, go to two
6- DAMMIT FLIP THE PAPER OVER
And when she did, the question was: will you go out with me? She looks at Tony who was standing at the other side of the room and shoots him a smile, telling him yes.
She waited until nine o'clock like Tony said, to call him. Once the green neon numbers on her alarm clock turned to 9:00, she picked up her cell from the night stand and dialed her boyfriend
Tony: Imagined you never turned that paper though
Valerie: Did you memorized the playlist, because you always know what song I had already listened to every time I call you
Tony: Well duh, I paid $36.12 for these songs, so I had to memorize them
Valerie: Damn, you shouldn't had anyways
Tony: But it'll be worth it in the end . . .
