Memories

   Potato placed a pink and white rose on Emily’s desk. He smiled before walking away.  Once he did, He put his hands in his pocket and started walking home. He let out a big sigh and smile. 

    Emily finished up work at about 4:30. She grabbed her stuff and waved goodbye to Rose. “ Night Rose. ” Emily smiled. “ Bye dear. Good luck. ” Rose waved back. Emily started out the door. It started raining. There was quite a bit of taxi’s down the street so she decided to take one. Emily went to the curb and whistled. One of the taxi’s turned around and pulled up net to her. She climbed in. “ where to miss? ” the driver asked. “ 121 north Park street, the apartment. ” Emily sat back looking at the time. Once she was home she ran inside. Sat all her things down, she got ready to get in the shower. She sent a text to Potato saying “ hey, I cant wait for tonight. Are we going out for dinner? or is it just the movie?  just wondering. :) ” She got in the shower. Emily thought about things that could happen, bad things. she tried to clear her mind. “ its just a date, i think. whats the worst that could happen right, hah.” she smiled. she got out of the shower, wrapped her hair and her self in a towel. She went to go check her phone. She read the message. “ Yeah, I’ll take you to dinner. Is the Le chic? Or is  it too much?  :) i hope not. ” Emily gasped. Emily smiled big. “ oh my gosh. ” Emily texted back. “ Perfect. wait. isn’t  that an really expensive place. Can you afford it and the movie? you don’t have to....” Emily went to her closet. took out all the dresses she has that would look good  for a date. “ well, Potato’s favorite color is Purple so ill wear this one ” She picked up  the dress that’s Black and has a Purple rose on the side. She remembered Potato saying he had liked this dress in particular. Her phone rang from the text message. “ I’m good. Its ok. I promise. MY promises Never lie and you know that. :) ” Emily smiled. She sent a smily face back. It was 5:30 when she was completely done. she had showered, found a good dress that Potato would like, make-up on and ready to go.

    Potato saw the smily face and smiled himself. He thought there bond was closer than ever. And he liked it.  Potato walked up to Emily’s door. He rung the door bell. A few seconds later she opened the door. “ Hey, are yea ready to go? ” Potato said happily. Emily smiled. “ Um, yea. ” Potato walked down to the car with Emily.  He opened the door for her, “ Here yea go Em. ” Potato felt nervous. He liked her but didn’t want to ruin what they had. He got in the car and they left. Potato looked in the mirror at Emily, she looked nervous too. They have gone to the movies before but this time felt different. It wasn’t like before, it wasn’t just like friends going to the movie. It felt like a real date. “ Hey, are you ok? You look sad or something. ” Potato glanced at Emily. Emily looked back. “ Um, Yea Im just a bit nervous thats all. ” Potato nodded. He felt the same way as well. They arrived at the movie. “ Do you Have any movie in mind you would like to see? ”  potato asked opening the door for her. 

    Emily looked  browsed the movies above them. “ What about Grown up’s, I’ve heard its a funny movie. ” Emily leaned toward Potato giggling. Potato chuckled. “ Um, Sure. ”  Potato walked up to the man for movie tickets. “ Can i get 2 tickets for “Grown up’s”? ” Potato asked. Emily stood there waiting. Potato returned. “ Ok, would you like something to snack on? ” Potato said holding out a 20 dollar bill. Emily looked at the money, and sighed. “ No i’ll wait in-till dinner. ” Emily smiled walking toward the movie entrance with potato following close behind. They found a good seat. Not in the back but not in the front, just in the middle. During the movie, Potato was making jokes about the people in the movie. Emily would laugh at every one.

      After the movie, They left to go out for dinner. They went to Le Chic. It was an expensive place for dinner but Potato wanted to impress Emily. They both ate while talking about random things like work, life and they had a good time bringing back memories, from there childhood. A bit after dinner, they got in the car and drove home. It was quiet in the car. “ So did you like tonight? ” Potato asked with a smile. Emily smiled back. “ Yes i did, in matter of fact i would LOVE to do this again. ” Potato pulled up to Emily’s house. He walked her to the door. He Smiled with his eyes. “ So I’ll see you at lunch tomorrow? ” Potato Chuckled. Emily giggled. “ Yea. I had a lot of fun tonight ” It got quiet between the two. Emily looked into Potato’s Icy Blue eyes. At the same time, they both got closer together. They were only inches away from touching. 

 Emily Leaned much closer, by now her lips were pressed against his. Emily’s eyes were closed but Potato’s were like melting, they slowly closed. the moment stood still. Potato slowly backed up, to where he could see Emily’s expression. 

Emily smiled. Potato backed off the steps in shock. Emily opened her door, and looked back at Potato. “ see you tomorrow. ” Potato nodded without saying a word. The door closed when Potato walked away. Emily stood behind the door, not believing what just happened. Emily let out a big sigh, closing and opening her eyes.  She walked up stairs, went to her room and sat on the bed. “ What just happened? W-what if this changes our friendship.....” Emily stuttered aloud. Emily frowned. “ Don’t let it change anything if you don’t want it to. ” She got up changed into her PJ’s and turned on the TV and laid down for bed. She set her alarm for 8:00 AM.  Emily fell asleep after about 30 minutes. 

  Potato left. He walked in his door smiling. He tossed his keys in a bowl. Or where they usually are. Potato went upstairs to take a shower. he went back to his room for his clothes. there was a message waiting on his phone. It was from Emily. " Hey- i really enjoyed tonight. It was fun. I hope we can do it again. " Potato's smile went to a straight face. He thought about the night and wondered if something goes wrong then will it change there relationship. He was a bit worried. " yea, i liked it too. " He texted back before he got in the shower.
