Digger woke up Sunday morning with major morning wood for the first time in months and a big smile on his face. He had dreamed of Stephanie all night long. It wasn't just sexual dreams either. He had enjoyed talking to her last night and was really looking forward to spending time with her today.

Of course he was looking forward to taking her to bed but that wasn't all he wanted from her. He wanted to get to know her better, to just spend time with her. That realization surprised him since it was not something he had ever wanted with another woman before. Even Ceecee. With her it had been all about sex!

He went down and had breakfast, mainly because he wanted his coffee. But when he returned to his room, Digger took extra care getting ready that morning. He bathed, washed his hair and thought about asking Vie to trim it for him but he hated the thought of having hair clippings all over him for the day so he decided to just wait.

Normally he grew a beard during the winter months but this morning he shaved his face clean. He splashed on some after shave and put on some deodorant then pulled on his clothes.

Black jeans, a white t-shirt and his holster then his cut. He pulled on his socks and then his boots. Threaded his belt through the loops then put on his rings. Digger always wore a black Tungsten ring with a whiskey barrel inlay that he had bought at Sturgis the first year he went as a patched member on his right hand and a gold skull ring on his middle finger on his left hand.

He checked to make sure he had cash in his wallet then stuffed it in his back pocket. He had enough to take Stephanie to lunch and he was planning on stopping and getting her some flowers. He texted her to let her know that he was leaving soon to come and get her and waited for her reply.

He didn't have to wait long for her to reply that she was ready to go and gave him her address. Digger hurried downstairs to let someone know where he was going. He had already talked to Edmond about cleaning his room. He let Prez know where he was going, then pulled on his jacket, grabbed a key for an SUV off the hook by the back door and left the house.

Butcher was just pulling up as Digger was walking to one of the SUVs parked near the back door. "Where are you running away to?" Butcher called out.

"Taking a lady to lunch! How's Margie?" Digger asked.

"Cranky. She kicked me out for the day. Said I was getting on her nerves and that if I didn't leave her alone for a while she was going to kick me out permanently. She goes from crying one minute to a mad witch in the blink of an eye." Butcher said, rubbing his hand across the back of his neck. "I love my wife and can't wait for our baby to get here but pregnancy hormones are a real bitch."

"Hahaha! Well good luck! Hopefully it won't last long." Digger told him and climbed into one of the nicer SUVs. He drove to the supermarket first and after searching for the bundle with the perfect color, he picked up a bouquet of pink roses. He went over to Stephanie's apartment building, not even realizing that this was the first time he had ever bought flowers for a girl. Hell, if he really stopped to think about it, this was the first time he had ever gone on an official date since high school.

When she had sent him her address, it hadn't registered that this was a really bad part of town. Even before he pulled up to park, he knew he had to get her out of this area. It was one of the poorest areas in Winchester and not a safe place for a single woman. It was known by the locals as Poor Town.

A well known drug dealer was leaning against the lamp post with a shot out lamp on the corner. As soon as he saw Digger get out of the SUV, he took off walking quickly in the opposite direction.
