When I woke up, I was back home in my bed. Was I dreaming, or did James ACTUALLY ask me out? I couldn't stop thinking about him, and if last night was actually real... Then I remembered. "Oh, crap! I forgot to report back to the boss!" I found myself actually saying that out loud, startling myself with the sudden reaction. Before I could get a grip on my thoughts, I received a message from James. I jumped again, startled by the notification. Curious, I checked my phone. The message was regarding the date... Well, now I knew that it wasn't a dream, but what was I going to do? I was having trouble deciding what to wear for the date... Maybe I should call James? He said casual outfit for the date, but I have a lot of casual outfits, and can't decide what to wear...
20 minutes later, I finally settled on a pair of black overalls (you decide if they have a skirt, shorts, or pants attached), black boots, and a short sleeve shirt (favorite color). Upon looking in the mirror, I was satisfied with my look. I checked the time; about 15 minutes before the date. I had to get there soon... I rushed outside and grabbed my bike, however, the moment I got on, it started raining. As if things couldn't get any worse! I was late for my date with James, and now it was raining...
What. The. Heck.
I pedaled as fast as I could, hoping I could get to the park in time. James had chosen to meet up at the skate park, which, luckily, had an awning that covered the whole park.
Lost in my thoughts, I reached the park way faster than I expected: five minutes after our set meeting time, but there was something wrong... I wandered around the whole place, but James was nowhere to be found.
