Left Behind

Cheers

Saturday-

The whole morning Jessica's body trembled. She was anxious to go out with David. Her last real 'date' was with Jason. Danny and Jessica only hung out as friends so there was never an official 'date'.

She was so nervous because she kept thinking of Danny. She couldn't get him out of her mind. It made her sick. She just wanted to enjoy herself and David. He was a nice guy.

Later in the day Sarah stopped by before Jessica left for her date.

When she walked she had pizza, clothes, makeup, and hair supplies for Jessica.

"What the hell is all this for?" Jessica chuckles watching Sarah lay everything out on the bed.

"The pizza is for me. The clothes and stuff are for you."

"I bet this is just casual." Jessica says

"It never hurts to look nice. I brought this dress that I sadly no longer fit in. Take care of it. Go change so we can work on your makeup!" Sarah says tossing the dress.

Jessica gives her a funny look and rolls her eyes.

After Jessica changes Sarah does Jessica's makeup and hair. By this time it was already six, he was coming at seven.

"You look wonderful, Jessica. He's a lucky guy." Sarah says taking another bite of pizza.

Jessica and Sarah were sitting on the couch waiting.

Jessica reached for a piece but Sarah slapped her hand.

"Hey!" Jessica pouts

"Pro-tip, never take food from a pregnant lady."

Jessica rolls her eyes. "Fine."

"I'm happy that you and this David guy are going on a date."

"You don't think it's too soon?"

"No, of course not. Besides you and Danny were never officially a thing."

"True, but still."

"Don't think about him tonight. Damn it Jessica!" Sarah whines.

"Fine..."

7pm-

As Jessica and Sarah are sitting and talking they hear a knock on Jessica's apartment door.

"Alright, remember to be yourself and don't talk about ex's, please!" Sarah says giving her a hug.

"Alright, thank you. Go hide! And lock up for me if you decide to go home."

"Good luck."

Jessica waited for Sarah to go into the other room. She took a deep breath, looked at herself in the mirror one last time, then walked to the door.

When she opened it she saw David wearing a dress shirt, slacks, dockers, and his hair was slicked back perfectly.

Jessica blushed when she saw a dozen red roses in his hand.

"Hi, you look, wow." He smiles

"Thank you. You look pretty nice yourself." She smiles

"I got these for you, I hope you like them. I hope it isn't too much."

"Of course not, they're beautiful. Why don't you come in while I put these in a vase."

David walks in and looks around Jessica's apartment.

"This is a great place." He says walking into the kitchen.

"Thank you, I decorated it myself. When I moved out here it was my own little project." Jessica puts the roses in the living room and smiles.
