Falling in Love

First Date

I start to wake when I feel shifting underneath me. I'm not quick to move or get up. I'm so warm and cozy I don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon. Then I'm on the ground.

"What the hell?"

"Oh gosh Len I'm so sorry!" Grey is laughing while helping me off the floor.

"Not funny Grey! I was real cozy!" He laughs again.

"I said I'm sorry! I'm arm was asleep. It felt like it was gonna fall off!"

"Suck it up, ya baby!"

"Baby?.." He slowly walks toward me.

"Grey.. Dont!" I put my hands out in front of me and walk backwards.

"I'm serious Grey. Don't even think about it." He stalks forwards as if I'm his prey.

"Come on man!" I turn around and run. My best option is the front door. Once I'm out I keep going. Great, it's raining. My right foot hits the beginning of the yard and I know I'm done for. I am unable to take another step because before I know it I'm sliding. When I stabilize Grey slides and knocks me on my ass. We both go down, hard.

It's pouring rain and I lay still on the cold hard ground. "Are you okay Len?" I don't respond right away, instead I smile.

"I love the rain!" He relaxes a bit once he know I'm not broken.

He lays beside me. I grab his hand and intertwine out fingers. "I missed you." I say to him. He turns his head to look at me and I do the same.

"I missed you too Lenny." He smiles and looks back toward the sky. "We should get warmed up before you catch a cold." He goes to stand pulling me with him.

"If you say so." I shrug.

"I do. Come on slow poke." He drags me inside. He runs to the bathroom and comes back with two towels. As I'm drying off I think of something.

"Hey," he looks up at me, "would you wanna.. I don't know.. go to dinner? Or uh- something?"

He smirks, "I would love to go to dinner with you Murph!"

I smile and look down, "I'm gonna change then." He nods his head.

I swipe my boots from the living room and walk to the bathroom where I left my dress and put it on. I peak in the mirror not hating what I see. My hair is a little wet. I've got some mud streaked across my cheek. I quickly splash some water on my face and finger comb my hair. Okay not bad, Murphy. You actually look like a human. When I step out of the bathroom I don't see Grey, so I assume he's in his room getting dressed. I sit in the couch and wait. I pull out my phone to check my messages. I have two one from my mom and one from Sarah.

Mom: Hello sweetie, Danny told me you came home last night. Sarah left something for you, I left it on your bed. I'm sorry you feel so hurt, but I'm happy. I love you, I hope you talk to me soon.

Not yet mom, not yet. Next..

Sarah: I found a sexy ass black dress that I need to see you in. I left it with your mom.. where tf are you bitch? Anyway love ya!♥️

Alrighty Sarah. She's crazy. I'm about to text her back when Greyson walks in. Oh god he looks yummy. He's wearing jeans a button up his cowboy boots and a cowboy hat.

"Wow" we say at the same time. I laugh.

"You look very handsome Grey."

"Stole the words right out of my mouth Len! Well- I mean you look pretty."

I giggle, "Thank you." A curtsy follows.

"Do you have a place in mind?"

"Um- Sheri's?"
