our first date was exactly
four days after the party.

you picked me up at my
house at ten o'clock. it was
pitch black outside, only
the stars were shining.

you didn't tell me where

we.

were going. you said it was
a surprise.

when we arrived, i was
stunned. it was a beautiful
picnic at a nearby park.

we sat near the train tracks,
eating cold pizza, and I didn't
mind at all. you

held.

something behind your back.
i raised my eyebrow, what
was it? you only glanced at me.

what is it? i asked impatiently.
you smiled, showing me your

hands.

in them, was one white rose.
you knew those were my
favorite kinds of flowers. i
appreciated that you listened
to me.

the rest of the night was
amazing. we finished the
whole box of pizza, and we
simply lay down on the grass
looking up at the sky.

you were next to me, we were
inches apart. when we looked
at each other, time froze. i
looked away, blushing. then i
looked down at my freezing
hand which turned warm.
