Catherine Stevens is about as normal it gets. She did everything by the book and always played it safe.

Catherine's POV

As I walked to my car I turned and saw my neighbor Jonathan. He was about as good looking as it got. With chiseled features and brown hair that flowed just the right way. I turned and got into my car, trying not to stare for too long.

I drove to north ridge hospital, I was a nurse there. I walked inside and saw a bunch of familiar faces.

"Hey Cathy." Stacey said.

Stacey was the head nurse and my best friend.

"Hey, Robert Hampton in room 2413 needs his bed sheets changed and George Karev in room 2896 has been complaining all day that he's not being fed.

All day I worked, patient after patient, getting everyone what they needed.

On my way out of the hospital my phone rang.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey Catherine, it Jonathan." He said.

Oh my gosh it's Jonathan! How'd he get my number? Never mind.

"Yeah hey." I said, trying to act as normal as I could. "What's up?"

"I was just wandering if you wanted to meet me somewhere for dinner?" He asked.

"Yeah!" I said, only a little too enthusiastically. "Um yes, sounds good."

"Good, see you later? " he said. "Bye."

"Yeah, bye." I said.

I hung up the phone in disbelief. I didn't even think he knew who I was. I rushed home and started getting dressed but I realized I had no idea where we were going.

I texted Jonathan and asked him where he wanted to go and I waited for him to reply.

"How about Lé Bístro?" He asked

"Sounds great ;)" I said.

That restaurant was fancy. I decided to put on a black dressed. I zipped it up and put on a pair of black heels. I grabbed my keys and got into the car.

I got to the restaurant and saw that Jonathan was already there waiting.

"Hey." He said. "You look great."

"Thanks. You too" I said to him.

We got seated at a table and ordered our drinks and food. It was kind of weird talking to him because we had never really talked before. Jonathan always kept to himself and never really talked to anyone so when I got his call I was shocked.

He was trying to make small talk to make our dinner less awkward than it already was. When we finished our food our waiter gave
us our check. Jonathan offered to pay the check and I kindly let him.

On our way out he said "Oh! I almost forgot."

He pulled out a little wrapped box and I opened it. It was a necklace with my birthstone in it.

"Aww how pretty." I said. "Thank you. I'll never take it off."

"Good." He said.

"What?" I asked.

"Oh, nothing." He said.

That was a bit weird. Why would he say good? Never mind. I don't want to ruin our date. Was it a date?

"Well I've got to get going." He said, interrupting my thoughts.

"Oh, yeah me too." I said. "Well I'll see you."

"Yeah. See you." He said.

I got into my car and drove home.

When I got home I texted Stacey and told her all about my dinner with Jonathan. We texted back and forth until I eventually fell asleep.

So what do you guys think? If anyone has any idea of where they want this to go, comment :)
