Grace POV
I ran home as fast as I could. I climbed my porch steps and raced inside. I honestly think that I scared my mother a bit too much.

"What in the world has gotten you rushing and spasy?" "Sorry mom. It's just that I got a date tonight!"
"About time." She said with a laugh.
"Who is it?"
"You know that guy I've had a crush on for a while?"
"Oh yeah. What's his name? Ron?"
"Reagan."
"Oh that's right. Where y'all going?"
Geez! My mother is soooo nosey.
"The movies."
"Oo sounds like fun."
"Yea.. well I'm gonna go get ready. He picks me up at 7."
"Ok dear."
When I finally got in my room, I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I went into the bathroom and took a shower and washed my hair with my strawberry scented shampoo. I let the water run over my face. When was the last time I loved taking a shower. After getting out I realized, 'What am I gonna wear?!'

I raided my closet, totally destroying my room. Here comes that tornado again. After 30 minutes, I found the perfect outfit, I think.

It was a black short dress, and I grabbed black sweater just in case of the cold, since it was still technically winter but almost spring

It was a black short dress, and I grabbed black sweater just in case of the cold, since it was still technically winter but almost spring. After I dried my hair, I decided to be a little extra curl my hair.

After what seemed like forever, I was finally ready and it was time to go.

"Grace, someone's at the door."
"Okay! Coming!"

I came down the staircase to find Reagan standing at the front door.

"You look beautiful!"
"Thanks! You too!"
He laughed. Wait what did I say? .... oh shoot!
"Wait! I mean you look handsome, yes handsome." I said looking down in embarrassment. Ugh! Why do I do this to myself?
"Good thing your dressed up, I thought of going out to eat after the movie."
"That sounds great!"
"You ready?"
"Yea, let me grab my purse."
Then we started down my stairs and he opened the door for me! What a gentlemen!

Leo POV
After getting dressed in what seemed appropriate for are special place, I set out to pick up a few things. What I'm gonna do is surprise her with a picnic and decorate the place a little so we can have a mini movie night out there. It's gonna be perfect!

I can just see it, is sitting there under are tre-
"Sir. It's $26.38"
"Oh sorry!"
After rounding up everything I set out for are place.
I had to hurry because Grace should be arriving soon. After getting everything ready, I sat and waited.

It should be any minute.

An Hour Later
Where in the world is that girl?
She wouldn't forget would she?

Grace POV
After the movie we set out for the restaurant. Oh the movie was great! We even held hands! This guy is great!
We pulled up to the restaurant, and I found that it was one of the best Mexican restaurants in town. Mmm.

"Oh I haven't had this in ages!"
"Well good. It will be a treat. And be extra good."
I laughed with a smile.

When we got seated, we had a great conversation. We talked about each other and families and the usual.

Everything was going great till I got a text message from Leo.

Hey? Where are you? I've been out here for an hour and a half?

... Oh Shoot!!
