15 Cents

The Onceler stood up.

"I have an idea!" he said. He took his gloves off and stuffed them in his pocket. He left the room for a moment before coming back.

He held his old guitar and began to play the jingle he used to use to advertise the Thneed tm. I hadn't really noticed how much I missed the past. It had only been 10 months since I arrived, though things felt a lot different now.

When he was done he held his hat out to collect change. I laughed and pulled out a handful of pennies from my penny collection in my night dresser, tossing them in the hat.

We were laughing together and he pulled out the coins. "13 cents," he said. "The means you've given me 15 cents total." Hes grinning.

"Uh, okay." he says nervously. "Well, I guess I've got to get to bed. We've got a big day tomorrow." "We?" I ask. He moves his guitar to his other hand. "I want to take you out for you're birthday of course." I had completely forgotten it was my birthday tomorrow.

"And you are born on the 22nd like me. I couldn't forget."

"Where are we going?" He laughs. "Thneed tm has sponsored this new restaurant. Would you like to try that?"

I jumped up and hugged him. "That sounds amazing!" I thought for a moment. "What should I wear?"

"Something you don't mind getting lots of photos of you taken in." "Oh, right." He smiled. "What?" I asked. The Onceler took my hand to walk me to my closet. He shuffled through a few clothes. "What are you doing?" I asked. "He pulled out a black dress I had never noticed before. I bought this for you right before I left. You were still sleeping so I hope you don't mind I just put it in the closet."

I shook my head. "No! It's gorgeous." I stroked the fabric with my fingers. "I'll wear it tomorrow." I said. I put it back and then turned around so the Onceler would not see how excited I was.

The next day, I put my dress on first before anything. I styled it with some black heels and black gloves. I put my hair in an old fashioned looking ponytail. It took me longer to put on my make up more than usual. I wanted it to be perfect.

I left my room and adjusted my gloves. I looked up to see the Onceler holding a bouqet of flowers.

"I uh- got you these." I held them in my hands staring at them. They smelled wonderful. I smiled and the Onceler smiled back. "One second," I said. And filling up the vase of my fake flowers with water from the bathroom sink. I put them back on my night stand.

The Onceler linked arms with me. I held his arm. He smelled really good. He opened the limo door for me before were interrupted by Isabella yelling and running over to us.
