I was making breakfast when I heard Steve come into the kitchen.
"Good morning Peg," I turned my head past my shoulder to look at him.
"Good morning!"

"What're you making?"

"Pancakes!"

"Those aren't pancakes," Steve stared at me confused.

"Oh Sorry! they're British pancakes. I thought I would make something that reminded me of home."

"Okay well, I'll make some coffee. Where are the cups?"

"They're on the top cupboard on the left."

He reached over to open the cupboard and grabbed two cups, then began making coffee.

"Okay.. It's ready," I set the plates on the table and sat down to wait for Steve. "Alright," he sat down the coffee. We began eating, then I looked at the clock. I quickly swallowed my food and got up to grab my coat.

"Oh my I didn't realize what time it was! I need to leave so I won't be late! I'm sorry we can sit down and have a real breakfast soon. Don't forget that we're going dancing at eight tonight."

I opened the door, rushed out and heard Steve say goodbye before I closed it all the way. It was going to be a long day at work.

Work was finally over and I went back to my apartment to get ready to go to the Stork club. I had decided to wear a red dress (I knew that Steve loved it when I wore red). I walked out of my room and was greeted by Steve who was holding a bouquet of flowers. When did he get those? I wondered.

"Hey, you look beautiful," Steve whispered and smiled as he stared at me. He handed me the flowers, they were my favorite! Red roses! I noticed that his eyes were looking up and down me trying to take it in. I smiled at him.

"Thank you. You look lovely, darling," I said and he blushed.

"Thank you," he managed to get out. I could tell he was nervous.

"Shall we go?" I asked looking at him. He took my hand.

"Yeah, let's go. You know I still don't know how to dance."

He chuckled as I replied, "don't worry. I'll show you how."
