Whenever Billy and Petra made a plan, their parents made a statement. "We decided that we will take time to get used to each other and maybe become family." Billy's mother stated hopeful. "So what about you two?" Petra's father asked, "What you both planning on doing together?" "I'm on a date, dad, can't you believe it?" Petra said with joy and excitement. "Oh, so you both decided to date to?" Billy's mother asks. "And we have a plan of things to do together," Billy says, "can we go out and have our time while you both do y'all's thing?" "Sure Billy, that would be nice of you." His mother agrees. Then Billy and Petra both head into Billy's brand new car he just saved up for.
Billy pulls up to a bar & grill place for supper. Billy and Petra reserve a seat by Billy using his debit card he has with him. Then the find their seat and sit down across from each other. The waiter comes over and ask, "so you two dating, eh?" "Yessir!" Billy responds respectively. The waitress continues, "Y'all two look cute, y'all fellows just meet?" "Basically," Billy answers, "and we also have a bunch of things we have to do together. I thought why not start our relationship with a delicious, nice dinner here tonight." The waiter nods back.
"Well, what can I get for you fine beings?" The waiter asks. "How about a nice burger, plain, with some fries, that are seasoned, and may I have a Dr. Pepper to drink, thank you." Billy lists his order. "Very specific young gentlemen," the waitress comments, "and what about you, young lady?" "I would like to order a steak, medium rare, some mashed potatoes and root beer for my beverage." Petra orders and winks at the waiter. "Fascinating! You must be a tough human being?" "Don't worry, I ate an entire bear's flesh without it being cooked." Petra flexes her muscles to the waiter. "Okay. I will have yall's order here in just a moment." The waiter finished taking the orders and informed the chef.
The waiter comes back and their food, "Here's y'all's delightful delivery." The waiter says, handing them their plates. "Thank you, kind sir." Petra says politely. "Anytime," The waiter replies, "You two enjoy y'all's meals. Have a blessed night." "You too!" Petra replies positively. Billy and Petra eat up their lovely meals.
"This is the perfect place for supper, ain't it?" Billy questions happily. "Totally belch on that one." Petra says while chewing her steak dipped in her mashed potatoes. "Get used to it, I'm a sloppy eater." "Already am, babe!" Billy says with a wink, and they both start laughing together. Billy sighs in relief and finishes his food. Then Petra decided to bring her leftovers in a to-go box. "Come back again soon!" The waiter calls out as they're walking out the door. They both head back to Billy's car and talk about how good the food was.
They head back home together and tell their parents how great their dinner was. It's getting time for sleep, and Billy's mother asked Petra's father, "Where's everyone going to sleep at?" Billy immediately responded, "maybe you and Mr. Plantar sleep together and me and Petra can sleep together too." "Good idea." His mother replied. Then they get to their rooms, getting ready for bed. Petra shows Billy her room, giving him a tour inside. Billy was satisfied with her wild animal posters and loved her plants she kept safe. "Let's get to bed." Billy says. Billy and Petra get into the bed and snuggle up together. "I love you Billy." Petra says silently. "I love you too, my hot girl." Billy says, rubbing Petra's forehead and then they got some sleep.
