*Jimmy's POV*

I am having the time of my life in New York City.

Cassidy and I are ice skating at Rockefeller Plaza, and I am god awful. I keep trying to do fancy turns with Cassidy but I always somehow end up on my butt, stupid physics. I was laughing so hard I felt abs coming on; Cassidy was in tears from my clumsiness which made me really happy to see her smiling and laughing so much.

"I think its time to get in line Jimmy" she said while wiping the happy tears out of her eyes. She reached a hand out to help me up but me being me I grabbed her hand and yanked her down so she could enjoy the ice down here with me.

"James!" She laughed while giving me a light punch. This time we both helped each other up, Cassidy had to help pull me over to edge if the rink to safety.

We discarded our rented skates and put on out regular shoes. I laughed because me and Cassidy both decided to go with black Converse today.

As I watched her tie her shoes, I looked at how beautiful she really was. Her hair looked amazing in a perfect French braid, her eyes were complimented by the olive green skinny jeans and she matched her black nail polish with a long sleeve Nirvana shirt. All around she was just a perfect, beautiful girl. Her birthday is in two months so I have to get her something perfect, especially because she did this for me.

"Come on Jimmy!" She said while pulling me out of my thoughts. I put my arm around her while walking to the observation deck. I might piss myself out of excitement.

"You excited?" She asked with a smile. I nodded my head vicariously.

"I'm going to be in the same breathing atmosphere as Dana Carvey and Adam Sandler. I think I might puke." I said over dramatically.

We have our tickets to the ticket taker person thing who was chewing gum obnoxiously. My hands were shaking like crazy, I'm actually here!

Our seats were pretty close to the front and that almost gave me a heart attack. All of this just feels so surreal. Looking at that stage made me picture me up there in the future doing a song parody and a boatload of impressions. I couldn't help but smile thinking about that.

Suddenly the lights dimmed and the stage lights went on. Chris Rock, Dana Carvey and Mike Meyers all walked out and my heart stopped. Like literally I couldn't breathe. Dana Carvey was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.

"Jimmy breathe." Cassidy whispered to me. I looked at her and smiled, and she smiled back.

My little heart attack or aneurism must of lasted the entire cold open because the three men on stage screamed "LIVE FROM NEW YORK IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT." Snapping me out of my mental block.

All night I cheered and laughed and smiled until my mouth hurts.

At the end I stood up for a standing ovation and I had tears streaming down my face as I clapped. I turned to Cassidy and just hugged her while crying. I was just so fucking happy and so in love with the girl sitting next to me. This night was just amazing and I'm inspired for two things right now: to become a cast member on Saturday Night Live and to get the girl next to me to love me.
