Chapter 6
Once the elevator doors opened, they walked out and headed to the hotel restaurant. They sat down and soon ordered. A waitress came and took their order. Not much was said.
''Why don't things work out after the first date?" Jessica asked.
''Loo at what we do. No girl wants to be left alone most of the relationship.'' Matt answered.
''That's true but we should have a shot.'' Jessica said.
''Really.'' matt replied.
''Yeah. We'll be on the road together and we'll have plenty of time together.'' jessica said.
''Won't you want space.'' matt asked.
''Yes, but I'll tell you when I do.'' jessica answered.
''Good.'' matt said.
''What are you really worried about.'' jessica asked.
''Not being good enough for you.'' matt answered.
''Whoever made you think that is an idiot.'' jessica said.
''It's been in my head since I was rejected.'' matt replied.
''You need to stop thinking like that and I didn't reject you. I just had a hard time after Chris.'' jessica said.
''I know so we'll go slow. First dinner then maybe a movie.'' matt replied.
''Since we're having dinner now, save the movie for another time. After dinner, let's go for a walk out in the hotel garden.'' jessica said.
''Good idea.'' matt replied.
Soon a waitress returned with their food and they ate with little conversation. They both noticed the other was quiet.
''What's wrong now.'' jessica asked.
''Just thinking.'' matt answered.
''About.'' jessica asked.
''Things that would make you happy.'' matt answered.
''All you have to do is ask.'' jessica said.
''I know but I don't want to offend you.'' matt replied.
''I'll let you know when you do.'' jessica said.
So mat proceeded to ask question after question and jessica answered everyone. matt had never met a girl like jessica. So honest and faithful, well that would come later on down the road. After they finished eating, matt paid and they left the restaurant and headed for the hotel garden. Both knew how right it felt.
