Peter Takes the Beautiful Girl Home

Peter woke up abruptly. Some one slammed a door. At first he was really confused by his location. Then the night before came back to him. He stood up and rubbed his eyes. Rosemary was nowhere to be seen. Carolina was in the kitchen making herself some breakfast. She saw him standing up.
"Rosemary's in the bathroom," Carolina said.
Peter nodded his head. He yawned and stretched.
"You want some coffee?" Carolina asked.
Peter just nodded his head and wandered into the kitchen. Carolina handed him a mug of black coffee which he downed.
"Rose's been talking about you nonstop. She really likes you. I've never seen her like this," Carolina said.
Peter smiled bashfully. "She's wonderful," He said.
Carolina smiled. "She's definitely a marvel," She said nodding her head.
The conversation seemed to die for a few moments. They both just sat there silently.
"Soo... um.. what did you two do for like I dunno forever?" Carolina asked.
Peter shrugged. "She fell asleep then I fell asleep," He said.
Carolina stared at him. "That's all?"
Peter nodded.
"You slept for like a whole day, ate and drank at a coffee shop?"
Peter nodded.
"You had the whole house to yourselves and neither of you tried something?" Carolina asked. "Not even Rose?"
Peter shook his head and so did Carolina. "Where do I find a guy like you?" She asked. "All the men I date just want one thing."
"I'm sorry that guys treat you like that," Peter said. "They shouldn't."
Carolina smiled. "Sometimes I like it. Gives me an excuse to live how I want to live, ya know?"
Peter smiled and nodded. He knew exactly what she meant. Carolina looked at her watch and shook her head. "I gotta take Rosemary to work. You aught to go home, but you could call us later around five," She said.
Peter smiled. "I will," He said.
Rosemary walked out of the bathroom. She smiled when she saw Peter and ran to him and hugged him. She was too short to kiss him on the lips without standing on her toes so she kissed him on the neck. He smiled and curled down to kiss her softly on the lips.
Carolina coughed and Peter looked over at her. Rosemary looked over to where Peter was looking. She waved at Carolina. Carolina told Rosemary that she had work. Rosemary was already dressed so she kissed Peter again and grabbed her purse. She told him to get in touch with her after work. Peter smiled and walked out with her. He kissed her again at the door then they parted ways.
Peter walked home. Carolina and Rosemary walked to work. When Peter got home Micky was the only one at the house.
"So, where have you been all night?" Micky asked like mother.
"I was at Rosemary's," Peter said heading towards the bathroom. When he got back out Micky was standing there with his arms crossed.
"You didn't..." Micky started to say.
"I didn't," Peter said then he went to get something to eat.
"You didn't?" Micky asked.
"I didn't," Peter confirmed as he peered into the empty refrigerator.
"You were at her house and you didn't... at all?" Micky tried again.
Peter shook his head. "Nothing at all," He said going to the cupboards.
"Is she a prude?" Micky asked.
Peter shook his head. "We just didn't," He said.
Micky stared at Peter. "Why not?" Micky asked.
"Because we didn't," Peter said sighing. He grabbed a bag of chips and sat down on the couch.
"Nothing... wow..." Micky said plopping down on the couch beside him.
Peter shook his head and ate a handful of chips. Past his nonsensical conversation with Micky Peter's day went by dull. At 5:30 Peter called Rosemary.
"Hello?"
"Carolina, I wanna speak with Rosemary," Peter said.
"She's here," Carolina said then she laughed. "She says she loves you."
Peter smiled. "Tell her I love her too," Peter said.
"Alright, what are you calling for?" Carolina asked. "Just to talk?"
"Can Rosemary come over to my house?" Peter asked.
Carolina was quiet for a moment. "Tonight she can," She said. "What're you planning?"
"I want her to meet my friends. I mean really meet them. Maybe Mike will change his mind about her," Peter said.
Carolina was quiet. "She says she can. You'll have to pick her up," She said.
Peter smiled. "Thank you Carolina," He said.
"You're welcome. Pick her up at around eight," Carolina said.
"I will," Peter said. "Bye."
"Bye."
Carolina hung up the phone. Peter looked at the clock on the wall. It was 5:38. He waited the few hours before he could go pick up Rosemary. At 7:30 be left the flat running into Mike and Davy.
"Where were you last night?" Mike asked.
"At Rosemary's," Peter said walking past Mike.
"Hey! Peter!" Mike shouted after him.
Peter kept walking. At 7:57 he reached Rosemary's apartment. She was quick to leave with him. She held onto his arm the whole walk. She stood very close to him. They reached the pad forty minutes later.
Mike was sitting at the kitchen table reading. He opened his mouth the chew Peter out, but he saw Rosemary and put on a fake smile.
"What's she doing here?" Mike asked glancing at Rosemary.
"I wanted to meet you guys," Peter said walking Rosemary over to Mike.
Rosemary smiled at him politely. Mike nodded his head. "I'm Mike," He said really loud and stuck his hand to her.
Rosemary shook his hand.
"She can't hear you at all so you don't have to yell," Peter said.
Mike glanced at Rosemary and frowned. He looked at Peter again still with that frown.
Micky slid down the stairs and Davy walked down them. "Who's yelling?" Micky asked as his feet touched down on the floor. He saw Rosemary and smiled.
"This is Rosemary isn't she?" Micky said smiling.
Peter nodded. Micky ran over to Rosemary and shook her hand vigorously. "It's soooo nice to meet you. I'm Micky," He said.
Rosemary smiled and nodded her head. Once Micky gave her her hand back she signed that it was very nice to meet him, and Peter translated. Davy finally made it down the stairs. He smiled at Rosemary. "I'm Davy," He said.
Rosemary smiled at him and nodded her head. Peter was really happy that Davy and Micky were being polite to Rosemary, but how Mike was treating her really bothered Peter. He'd have to have a talk with Mike.

(So I've started another Hollies Fanfiction called Dear Eloise if anyone is interested. If you don't listen to the Hollies they're one of my favorite bands. Dear Eloise is the title of one of their songs, so is Carrie Anne, they're both awesome songs, kinda bubblegum, but they're a very pleasant band.)
