"Hey listen, I have a great idea." he said as soon as she picked up the phone. He always caught her at the right time and for that he was grateful. The thought of not being able to talk to her was enough to break his heart, but then again he was just a pathetic romantic.
"I have an idea that I wanted to pass by you."
"Oh really... Let me see. You want me to run away with you to Fiji." she said sarcastically.
"Hmm... that's not a bad idea but uhhh... No." he rolled his eyes. "I have a plan that is not as extreme."
"Ok.. I'm listening." this was her 'I give in' voice. He knew he better just come out with it before she got ticked. She hated playing guessing games.
"Well, if you look out the window you will see that it is raining."
"Yea.. and?"
"I'm getting there." he did enjoy teasing her by saying this.
"I want you to play hooky with me. I have already arranged for 2 tickets to go see some stupid movie in a theatre about 20 minutes away. I have the tickets so you can't say no." He was really hoping she would bite. They had yet to meet and he figured this was the perfect opportunity, and he was hoping she would think so too.
"Really???" she said in a low tone trying to hide the conversation from prying ears.
"Yea... I figured this would be a good opportunity for us to meet."
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"If you are interested let's do it before I change my mind." he said
"Ok.. give me the name and time and I will make an excuse to free up my afternoon." she hung up the phone trying to figure out just what was gonna happen when they met. She decided if nothing happened that was ok but she was gonna make sure she was ready just in case.
About an hour later he was standing in the lobby of the movie theatre waiting. She walked in and found him quickly. He had no idea what she looked like but she had seen an image of him and knew she could pic him out. He relied on that. A tap on the shoulder and he turned around. Standing in front of him was a beautiful woman with a cute but nervous smile on her face.
"Hello.." she said to him. He was stopped dead in his tracks. His nerves kicked in too making it difficult for him to do or say anything.
"Hi... " was what he could get out without stuttering. "I.... I.. I'm glad you decided to meet me." and he let out a nervous smile of his own. He looked her over and was just in awe of her sultry beauty. She was wearing a peach sundress that had buttons running halfway down the front and it fit her nicely. "You really are a very stunning woman."
"Thank you" and she gave him a light kiss on the cheek.
"Mmmm... " was what he got out as she grabbed him by the hand and off they went in the direction of the movie theatre. This theatre unlike most was broken up into 2 sections, the main floor and the balcony. It was rare to find a balcony so it make it very exciting for them to climb the stairs and find nobody up there. All the way to the right along the last row she sat down next to the wall and he sat down on her left.
He turned and looked at her, "I never thought we would ever get the chance to meet, you surprised me by taking me up on this."
"I know I kinda suprised myself." she said looking at him and smiling. "But I figured if I am gonna do this I might as well go for it."
