After Bupkus saved Melissa's fall, he treated her for some ice cream at Baskin Robbins. Melissa smiled, "Sure. I would like that." She grabbed her shoes from the corner she put them in and walked into the lockers to freshen up, change clothes and grabbed her stuff. She and Bupkus walked out the door and headed over to Baskin Robbins. Bupkus got chocolate Oreo while Melissa got Mint Chocolate Chip. Melissa and Bupkus laughed at each other as they appear to have ice cream mustaches and got to know each other more.
Bupkus asked, "So, Melissa, do you enjoy dancing and jazz music?"
Melissa answered, "Of course. Why do you ask?"
Bupkus looked nervous as he said "Just curious," then finished what was left of his ice cream. Melissa raised her eye brow, "Monstar Bupkus are you asking me out on a date?" Bupkus choked on his ice cream and Melissa got up to pat him on the back. "Are you okay?" Bupkus cleared his throat and said, "Yeah. I'm good." Melissa went back to her seat while Bupkus heaved a sigh and started off slowly, "Look, Melissa, I'm not trying to be hasty. I just thought you would like to spend an evening with me. You know, just hang?"
Melissa thought about it and said, "Well, I'm not planning on doing anything so…" Bupkus had a look on his face that reads "Please don't say no, please don't say no!" Melissa finally answered, "Bupkus, I would love to go out with you." Bupkus's eyes widened with excitement as he shouted, "REALLY!?" Melissa was shrinking in her seat and hiding her face with embarrassment. Everyone heard Bupkus and looked at him like he was crazy. He was blushed and straightened himself up.
"My bad," Bupkus apologized. Melissa told him, "Yes. I'm free tomorrow." Bupkus smiled, "Wonderful. Then I'll pick you up tomorrow at 7:00 p.m." Melissa liked that plan. She looked at her watch and said, "Well, I should be heading home. I'll be seeing you tomorrow at 7:00." As Melissa got home, she was so excited about tomorrow that she called the spa to schedule a 12:00 appointment and then went through her closet to pick out an outfit for her date. She pulled out a spring green dress with a slit, a pair of white gloves and a pair of white pumps. Melissa walked over to her mirror to see how the dress looked and thought, "MMMM...Sassy!" She set all that out for tomorrow night, showered and got ready for bed.
