COLOR THE NIGHT
The big night for Adam…
“Adam, this is such a lovely place but I think it’s quite expensive here.” Pally said.
“Don’t worry about a thing! Tonight you will be a princess.” Adam charmed.
“Princess? Do you have a fever Adam?” Pally laughs, “Anyway, thanks!”
Adam smiled. I hope everything that we have prepared for will be successful. My God I feel nervous! What if Jane rejects me? Focus Adam! Focus!
“Aren’t we going to place our order yet?” Pally asked.
“Sorry I forgot, I am just stunned by how beautiful you look today.” Adam praised.
“Oh thanks.” Pally smiled shyly.
Shoot! What’s next? What am I going to say next? (Scans his notebook) Where is it? Elmo and Julie wrote it here!
“Adam? What are you looking at?” Pally curiosly asked.
There it is! Bingo! Adam clears throat, “Pally, have I told you already how dashing your eyes are?”

At the Corner of the Same Restaurant
“How is he doing?” Julie asked.
“I think he can do it.” Elmo answered as he observes Adam and Pally.
“Ma’am, Sir, here are your orders.” The waiter served.
“Thanks.” Julie smiled.
Julie’s POV
So this is how couples court each other in this age. I find it romantic and personal. Look how close the couples are! Unlike during our time where every dinner seems to be a feast, the male often neglects girl because he is busy entertaining his guests.

“Huh? My eyes?” She laughs, “Adam what’s gotten into you? Anyway thank you.” Pally blushed.
Adam scans his notebook, “You’re most welcome, but praising thy beauty isn’t enough to describe thee.” Wow is that an old English?
“Oh you! Quit it Adam you’re making me blush.” Pally chuckled.
(Scans his note book) He fakes laugh and acts naturally, “Yeah, your turning red now… like an apple… I bet you’re also as sweet as it is.” I wonder where do Elmo and Julie get these words?
“You and your charms.” Pally smiled, “You’re Just hungry…” She joked.
He again scans the note “Indeed, but after I saw you smile, I felt hunger no more.”
Pally laughs, “Is that what your notebook said?” Pally smiled.
Oh sh*t busted! What do I do? Oh no!
“Kidding! Oh Adam you may act a bit awkward but you never cease to look adorable.” Pally laughed.
Phew! That was close! Oh no I am turning red!
Adam laughed.
“Ma’am… Flowers for you… from Sir Adam Levine.” The waiter interrupted.
“Oh my God! Adam how thoughtful of you! They’re beautiful.”
“Just like you.” Adam Praised.
“Aw, thanks. But you don’t have to do this. Our simple dinner and chit chat is enough for me.”
“I…” Shoot I forgot what’s next! (Scans notebook) “You’re a special person for me that is why you deserve something special.”
“Thanks!”
Adam looked for Elmo and Julie and scratched his head to give the signal.
“Elmo!” Julie whispered, “He already gave the signal.”
Elmo tries to swallow what he was eating “Waiter (cough)! … Wa- Water please!”
Adam saw Elmo’s commotion. What are you doing? Elmo! I already gave the signal! Do it!
“Sir here is your water.”
“H-he gave the signal.” Elmo chokingly said.
Elmo! Where is it! Adam Worriedly thought.
“Adam is there something wrong?” Pally noticed.
Julie’s POV
Then just before Madame Paliza turned her back to see what troubles her companion, the sky burst a lot of beautiful fireworks. The dark silent sky turned into a rainbow of dancing colors.
Adam’s POV
That was really close, I thought we would screw this up. Good thing the timing was perfect! Thanks Elmo! Thanks Julie!
“It’s Beautiful!” Pally said in daze.
“The night sky represents me while the fireworks symbolize you Pally.”
“What do you mean?” Pally asked.
You can do it Adam! You practiced and memorized this! Elmo thought
“Whenever you are away from me, my life seems to be silent and drifting. Like the night, I feel cold and alone only winds remind me of how comforting it is to be with you. You are the fireworks because despite of the solemn silence of the night, you give color to me and give me the glowing happiness that I could never forget. You are my light and joy Pally. You are the color of my night.” YEAH! NAILED IT!
“I-I… I am speechless…” She laughs. “I really do not know what to say.” Pally blushed.
“Ladies and gentlemen!” the Restaurant owner announced, “Someone, at this very moment, has volunteered to give us a song. He said that he will try to give a different version of a popular song today in dedication to someone he loves. May I call in Mr. Levine?”
“Oh My! Adam! What’s this?” Pally surprisingly asked.
“This one’s for you Pally.” Adam said as he stood up.
___
Julie’s POV
Good Luck to thee Sir Adam! I know you can do it! We’ve practiced this for a week; this is the moment you’ve been waiting for!
“Lets cross our fingers Sir Elmo.” Julie held Elmo’s hand.
So adorable! Sir Elmo turned red too!
“Ye-Yeah!” Elmo smiled.
