Destiny N. Brown

Destiny and Billie sat across from each other at a nice restaurant, the smell of food wafting in the air. Billie had a huge grin on her face as she looked at Destiny, who was fidgeting with her napkin. She hated dates.

They'd been going out more recently, and things seemed to be going well so far.

"So," Billie began, "What do you wanna talk about?"

"Well..." Destiny mumbled, looking down at her plate and avoiding eye contact with Billie. The waitress came by and took their orders; they both ordered steak. After the waitress left, Billie spoke up again. "I don't really have much to say."

"You mean nothin' good?"

"No... I guess not."

Billie smiled and put her hand on top of Destiny's. "I'm sure there is something to tell me though. You can tell me anything that I don't know about you yet. It doesn't need to be something big." Destiny nodded.

"Well, I'll give ya somethin' to think about while we're eatin'. How many boyfriends have you actually had before talking to me?"

This time Destiny did look up at Billie, she was smiling hard. "What kind of question is that?!"

"A good one," Billie replied with a smile. "It gives me an idea of how open minded you are."

"Oh yeah, my bad," Destiny chuckled nervously, sitting back in her chair. "I haven't had very many, if any, boyfriends before you. So I guess that means I'm pretty open-minded."

"Yeah, I bet," Billie responded with a smirk. "Well, now you've got me curious. Would you mind telling me more about your past relationships?"

"Ummm..." Destiny murmured, looking away once again. The waitress brought their meals over and placed them down on the table in front of them. Both women started eating their food quickly, as if they were trying to avoid talking about what was happening right then. Eventually, after finishing their meals, they looked at each other.

"Alright," Destiny started, her voice shaking slightly. "Let's see, I've only had two boyfriends before you. One was when I was fifteen years old, and he lived near my house. We dated for about six months, I guess. He cheated on me with his ex-girlfriend a few times, and then moved away. The other guy is someone I met when I was a senior in high school. We never dated, but we ran into each-other just a couple days ago actually."

"Wow," Leaning forward Billie put her elbows on the table. "You really haven't had many boyfriends, have you?"

"Not compared to some girls anyway." Destiny agreed.
