More then a best friend

Part 36

Two weeks later

Marie walks into the coffee shop that is right near her apartment and she heads to the counter and orders a Vanillie Mocha. She goes and takes a seat near her favorite spot which happens to be, a bay window to look over and find Danielle sipping on a chocolate chip frappuccino with no whip cream. "Hey." Marie said. "Marie, I..I..I didn't see you come in. How have you been these last few weeks?" Danielle said, perking up. "Well, the meetings have been really helping me and thank you by the way for setting that up." "Don't mention it. Its my pleasure. I'll do anything for you." Danielle said just staring at this girl who seems so much more like the girl she first met. "What?" Marie said, giggling. "Nothing. I just really have missed you and that laugh of yours." Danielle said, smiling. "I have missed you too Danielle." "Um.. Marie would you want to go out to dinner this Saturday?" Danielle said nervously shaking her leg. "Yes that sounds really nice, actually." "Perfect. I'll pick you up at 6 o'clock p.m. and dress in that black dress that you have." Danielle said, smiling while picking up her book and coffee and heading out the door.

Saturday: 9:00 a.m.
Marie was cleaning up the house and just thinking about tonight. When she heard a knock on the door. She went to go open it and saw Edward. "Hey." Marie said smiling. "Somebody seems in a good mood?" "Me and Danielle are going out to eat tonight." Marie said just smiling. "That is really good. I told you everything will be alright." "I sure hope so because Edward I really have missed her." Marie said looking at the collage over the fireplace. "I know. Marie?" "Yes?" "She loves you and I mean that. She honestly really does love you. Trust me." Edward said heading out the door.

Saturday: 6:00p.m.
Marie just finished fixing her hair and slipped on the black dress with her flats when she heard a knock at the door. Marie goes to the door and opens it, and looks amazed at how beautiful Danielle is in a tux. "Well are you going to invite me in or let me keep standing out here?" Danielle said chuckling. "Oh.. Yeah I'm sorry you just are very.. Breathtaking." Marie said still staring at her. Danielle chuckles and walks in. "So, where are we going tonight?" "Now if I tell you it won't be a surprised now, would it?" Danielle said smirking. "You and your surprises." Marie said smiling back at Danielle. "Aww you know you love them." "true but I love you even more." Marie said staring at the picture. Danielle sees Marie staring at the collage and says, "Ready to go?" Marie looks back and says, "Always."
