Anna plopped into a booth in her favorite café. Rapunzel was due to meet her soon, although Anna was pretty sure she knew what Rapunzel was going to say.
Ugh. Why did I say yes to Elsa? I mean, I've never felt like this about someone before. Not even…him. Anna shuddered. But it's too soon, I don't even know her. What does she expect from this date? What if it's more than I can handle? Oh god, Rapunzel – please get here soon!
Anna had scarcely thought it when Rapunzel rushed through the door with a wild look on her face. Uh oh, maybe I shouldn't have texted her 911.
"What's wrong? Do you need me to drive you to your therapist? You didn't see him did you? Because I know you have a restraining order, so if you've seen him, we can call the police! I think I still have the investigators number-"
Anna cut Rapunzel off before she could continue on her tirade "Whoa hold on a second Rapunzel! It's nothing like that, I haven't seen him since court."
"What the hell, Anna? Why'd you text 911 then? I thought we agreed that was only for real emergencies – like if you needed to go see Dr. Snow or something." Rapunzel replied.
"I met someone."
"You…you what? What do you mean, you met someone?"
"A sophomore. Her name's Elsa – tall, blonde, and the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen – I literally ran into her and knocked her over and then I went to leave and I don't know…she just asked me out and I agreed and gave her my number! I don't know what to do. I mean you know, I'm supposed to be taking a break from dating right now."
Rapunzel stared at Anna dumbfounded. "YOU SAID YES?" People in the café were starting to stare. "I thought…I mean…Anna. When you said you met someone, I didn't know you meant that you had agreed to go on a date with someone! Are you sure you're ready? I mean, it hasn't been that long since…well you know."
"I know. I have an appointment with Dr. Snow tomorrow, so I'll talk to her about it. I know I'm supposed to be taking a break from relationships, but…I can't explain it. It just feels right. But I don't know what I should tell Elsa about therapy and everything else."
"Ok, calm down girl. It's potentially a first date, you're not marrying her. Don't worry about what you need to tell her right now! If you end up going on more dates then you can worry about it. Seriously, you seem really into this girl – just try to have a good time."
"Yeah I know. It's just hard." Anna sighed. "But thanks, I'll try."
"Ok" Rapunzel said and reached out to squeeze Anna's hand. "You know I'm here, right? And if you go on the date and realize that it's a bad idea, send me an SOS text and I'll call you with an emergency. It'll be fine. I'll see you at home tonight?" Rapunzel looked doubtfully at Anna.
"Yeah I'm have to work and then I'm going to study for a bit, but then I'll be home" Anna stood up to leave the café.
