A Night to Remember
Chapter 1
"Night of Love"
Love is the unifying force which integrates one's soul with that of another.
~ Linda L. Dowd
Melinda and Jim loved each other so much. Her heart was full of desire for him that was untouchable. Tonight was date night for the two love birds and Jim had planned out right to the very last napkin. He wanted everything to be perfection for his love of his life. Melinda walked into the bedroom as he was buttoning up his blue dress shirt. Melinda was about six months pregnant and she couldn't fit in anything that she owned.
"Jim, why do you pick the night I have no clothes to wear as the night we go on a romantic dinner?" smiled Melinda. Jim finished his last button.
"Can't I just say I love you?"asked Jim. Melinda laughed.
"Nice save" She walked over to her dresser and pulled out about seven different outfits. Ever since Melinda was pregnant she hasn't been shopping for any clothes. Her latest wardrobe was all her at home 'comfies' that consists of an oversized sweater and track pants.
"Are you sure this was the woman you married?" frowned Melinda. Jim smiled and grabbed her belly from behind and a warm embracing hug.
"Yes, you're even better than her" said Jim. Melinda laughed. She sat on the bed and rolled over like a bowling ball.
"Are you sure? I mean, I'm the temperamental ice cream fatty" said Melinda. Jim sat down with her on the bed and kissed her on the forehead.
"You're my temperamental ice cream fatty" he smiled. Melinda looked deeply into his intense eyes that burned desire within her soul. Melinda slapped his ass and giggled. He lifted himself up and helped her up.
"We have to go, reservations are at 8:oopm" said Jim looking at his watch. Melinda was happy that she could see Sam's face whenever she would look into the eyes of her lover. Ever since he had died, she hadn't been the same. Everyone else can see him as Sam. Melinda got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Before she could put the tap on, the doorbell rang.
Melinda ran down the stairs holding her belly breathing deeply.
"Coming, hold on, pregnant lady remember!" yelled Melinda running to the door. She unlocked the wooden door and noticed Delia holding a dry cleaners bag. Delia waved.
"Delia Banks to the rescue" she said. Melinda let Delia in and closed the door behind her.
"What's this?" asked Melinda. Delia handed the dry cleaners bag to Melinda and sat on the couch near the roaring fire.
"Clothes for your date tonight" said Delia.
"I figured that you might need some clothes for you special night tonight" said Delia. Melinda laughed.
"How did you know?" asked Melinda. Delia smiled and giggled with Melinda.
"I may have helped a bit with the planning" said Delia. Melinda slapped Delia on the arm.
"You little snob" laughed Melinda. Delia and Melinda continued to talk as Jim was up stairs finishing his clothing. Melinda put her arm around the couch.
"Where's Eli?" asked Melinda. Delia looked at the door.
"He should be here soon, not so good with ties" said Delia. Melinda looked down to the ground.
"How's he doing with Zoe's death?" asked Melinda. Delia crossed her hands on her lap. The colourful beads on Delia's wrist hit each other, creating a beautiful ring.
"He hasn't opened up much about it" said Delia. Eli walked into the living room and shut the front door.
"Hello ladies" said Eli. Melinda smiled and touched his hand.
"I would get up to hug you but it takes me years to get off the couch" said Melinda. Eli smiled.
"No worries, I have already gotten hugs from many women today" he lied. Delia laughed her head off.
"Of course you did" she teased. Eli frowned.
"Of course I would, I am a very popular man out there Mrs. Banks" said Eli fixing his tie. Melinda looked into the fire that glowed in the living room. For some reason, she was very intrigued in the blaze of ruby red. Delia and Eli continued to talk.
"So where's Ned tonight?" asked Eli.
"At his friends for the night" said Delia. Delia watched Melinda as she stared at the fire and she tried to get her attention.
"Melinda?" asked Delia. Melinda watched as the fire formed something within the blaze. She looked closed and all of a sudden the fire blew into Melinda's face. Melinda screamed as Delia was tapping her out of her gaze. Melinda patted everywhere to stop from her clothes from burning.
"Mel, what's wrong?" asked Delia. Melinda uncovered her face and looked at the fire.
"Did you just see that?" asked Melinda. Eli looked around.
"No, what happened?" asked Eli. Melinda looked at the fire and felt a cold breeze. No not tonight Melinda said to herself.
"Nothing, it's okay, let's go have a good time" Melinda said with a nice white smile.
Melinda put her stuff on that Delia had given her and walked down stairs to show it off to everyone. Melinda walked down in a beautiful blue dress with a white shawl around her shoulders. Jim had an endless smiled across his face.
"You look gorgeous" said Jim. Melinda giggled and walked down the stairs.
"Really?" she asked. Eli nodded.
"Really" he blushed. Delia grabbed her purse and Eli followed. Jim let Melinda out the door and she locked it. During the car ride, Melinda talked with Delia and Jim talked with Eli.
"So doesn't the not dating beat the purpose of double-dating?" asked Melinda. Delia laughed.
"It's a friendly double-date between Eli and I" said Delia. The two girls started to laugh as Eli and Jim talked.
"Do you think Melinda will like everything?" asked Jim. Eli smiled.
"It's perfect, don't worry" said Eli. Melinda looked outside at her beautiful town of Grandview and watched as Same as it never was passed on by the car window.
"Jim, where are we going?" asked Melinda. Jim smiled.
"That beautiful bistro we went to two years ago" said Jim. Melinda looked out the window and saw the beautiful lights that beamed into the car.
"It's perfect" said Melinda.
The four got a seat that faced Grandview square and they listened to the beautiful classical music.
"Jim, this is perfect, thank you" said Melinda. Jim put his arm around Melinda when she started to shake.
"Ou, it got cold out here all of a sudden" said Melinda. Delia was shocked.
"Mel, I'm boiling, it's so humid, are you okay?" asked Delia. Jim looked at the baby.
"Baby?" asked Jim. Melinda smiled, wrapping her shawl around her.
"I'm sure he is fine" said Melinda. Melinda let the others order as she looked around and noticed the little girl with no face standing in front of her.
"How are you going to be able to protect him when they come for him?" asked the little faceless girl. Melinda started to tear as her night to remember had completely changed.
