The Girl Who Fell In Love With An Australian

Chapter 7

They rode the motorbike back to the entrance/exit of the Zoo. As they were pulling up to the entrance/exit; Ruth decided that she didn't want her time with Robert to end, but she knew that her family back in Ohio would never allow her to move here. Her father was a very controlling father. He wouldn't hardly let her drive; even though she was eighteen and she had her drivers licence. She knew that if her father found out about her adventures with Robert, he would probably never allow her to go out on a date with any guy ever until she moved out of the house.  She was pulled out of her thoughts by Robert saying that they were at the entrance/exit. She realized that she still had her arms around Robert. He realized it too. She quickly removed her arms from around him. As soon as she pulled her arms from around him, he missed her warmth against his back and her warm arms around him. He decided to ask her something that had been bothering him for the few hours that they had been together. "Ruth?" he asked. "Hmm?' she replied with a humming sound. " How long are you planning to be in Australia? " She looked at him with a little bit of surprise in her hazel eyes. Finally, she broke the silence between them by saying, " I had originally planned to be here for about three weeks but then I decided that I should only stay for two because I will more than likely have to go back to work for my dad as soon as I get back and not only that he said I could only have two to three weeks off. So I will be here for two and a half weeks then I plan on heading back to Ohio." He decided to hide how sad he was that she couldn't stay for too long but two and a half weeks was long enough for him to get to know her a little bit better. He looked down at her, and gave her a smile that he kinda had to force. She looked up at him and she was happy that she would get to see him again. She then remembered that he had asked her out on a date and that she should probably ask him where he wanted to go, seeing as how she didn't know anything about Australia. "Robert?" "Hmm?" he replied. "Where would you like to go on a date?" He looked at her kinda surprised that she would ask him out. Then he remembered what he had said to her. "Oh uh, there is this little restaurant that I heard about in Queensland, if you wanna go check it out with me?" She smiled wider than she ever had before. "Sure!" she replied excitedly. Robert smiled back at her, this time not forced, and he said, "Okay then, just let me know when you are available to go and I can plan it in." She immediately responded, " I'm available all the time, I don't really have anything planned into my schedule, except tomorrow morning I was planning on going to a museum to learn some history about Australia." " you can't really learn a lot in a museum about all the cool things in Australia." He said, kinda hinting that he could show her all kinds of awesome things about Australia that not many people think about looking at. She looked at him and smiled at the smile he was giving her.

*Chapter 8 is going to be a work in progress.  Also, THANK you all so much for over 100 reads!  I never thought I would get more than that ever.  Hopefully, after I graduate in the spring I will have more time to write stories for you all.  Thank you guys so much for reading!  Leave me some comments if you have any complaints about misspelling or any new ideas about what I should write next.  Bye bye.
