7. The Zoo

Luke
After pocketing my keys I got out of my car running to the other side to open the door for Emily. Emily, I still couldn't believe how I got so lucky. I kept contemplating whether I should pull a pickup line on her when we met, and I'm so glad I didn't because that would have been so embarrassing.

I opened the door for her and immediately her eyes widened when seeing where we are. "Oh.my.god" she said. "I know right?" I mimicked. The beautiful place in front of me was the petting zoo that I used to go to when I was a kid.

"Can we go look at the Penguins!? PRETTY PLEASE?!"I asked. In a little kid voice. We both burst out laughing and, her laugh is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

"Are there even penguins at this zoo?! This is Australia I mean for Petes sa-"
But right before she could finish her sentence I was quick to lead her to the Penguins section. She was at loss of words. "Wha-h-how?! It's like a million degrees!" She gaped. "I don't even know. But I'm sure they came up with a way to keep them alive right?" I said. "Yeah, umm can we look at the giraffes now?" She asked, jutting out her bottom lip. I smiled at her and wiggled my eyebrows.

"I'll race you to the giraffe exhibit!" I said. Quickly jogging over to the section behind the Penguins only to see her sweep past me. "WAHT?!" I screamed. I started to pick up my pace. Following and shortly after, passing her once again.

"Haha" I mocked. "I WON!" I bragged. Soon, She made her way next to me putting her hands on her knees and breathing heavily. "Jesus! Your legs are so long it's not even fair!!" She said said in between breaths."are you sure your not an Olympic runner?!" She asked. I could feel my cheeks heating up at her compliment."ooh let me take a picture of you and this giraffe!" She said. And sure enough when I turned around there was the cutest giraffe I have ever seen. "Smile!" She said as she snapped the photo with her Polaroid camera.

"Man she kills me! It's like I can't her out of my head!" I said to Michael over the phone on speaker. I was currently sitting in the car waiting for Emily to get back from the bathroom, and All I could do was think of her.She was the girl of my dreams right now. "Dude your totally whipped" he commented.i didn't even hear the car door opening next to me.

"I know, that's the problem." I said in a madder-of-fact tone. "Yeah, so when are you going to tell her we are leaving in a week huh?" He said. But before I could answer I heard a door slam next to me.

"WHAT THE HECK?! Michael I-i gotta go." I said, not understanding the situation. When I got out of the car I could see Emily running off in the distance.
