Chapter 7- Somebody to Love
Stephanie entered her house, and Vicky was in the living room, watching an episode of Friends.
"Hey Steph! How was your day?" Vicky asked as she got up from the couch, walking towards Steph.
"It couldn't be any better." Steph beamed and grinned like a fangirl in love.
Vicky giggled. "I think Cupid came and paid you a visit. I know that look."
Steph blushed a light pink. "Well it was inevitable, but I think I like this guy. Oh he's so perfect for me! He's got long brown hair, brown eyes, and he loves rock music! Oh Vicky he's just so dreamy and hot and-"
Vicky interjected Steph's love induced ramble and laughed. "Oh Steph, you're so cute when you have a crush on guys! What's his name?"
"Jimmy Watson. His dad, Paul Watson, owns the record store Vinyl Obsessed. Jimmy works there." Steph explained.
Vicky looked interested. "So it's a family business?"
"Yeah. Uncle Jesse goes there sometimes, and that's how Paul got to know who I am." Steph answered.
"That's great Steph, did you meet Jimmy today?" Vicky asked.
"Yeah. Gia told me he was checking me out, so I looked at him and he looked so cool. So he and I introduced ourselves to one another and he gave me his private phone number. I'm supposed to call him tonight." Steph explained.
Vicky smiled warmly at Steph. "That's great of you Steph. I hope you guys become a couple and I hope he's a good guy."
"I have a feeling he will be. He was friendly and nice to me, and I don't see how he could be mean." Steph said with optimism.
"Well I'm sure he will be nice from your description of Jimmy. Just be careful, because once you get to know a person, your opinion may change. But from what your Uncle Jesse has told me, Paul Watson is a lovable guy and he's nice, and so is his family. So I'm not worried about it." Vicky smiled and hugged Steph. "Now call your future lover!" Vicky and Steph giggled.
"I will Vicky! I'll be upstairs if you need me!" Steph said as she went up the stairs quickly and entered her bedroom, closing the door behind her. She removed her jacket and shoes off, and fished out Jimmy's number out of her purse.
With the number in her hand, Steph went and dialed the number, her heart beating like a drum. After a couple of rings, Jimmy picked up the phone.
"Hey Jimmy, it's Judas." Steph giggled insanely at her nickname.
"Hi Judas, wow you're really giggly." Jimmy laughed.
"Sorry about that. I'm not used to being called that, but it's a cute and clever nickname though." Steph confessed.
"It suits you well. So I wanted to tell you something, well ask you." Jimmy said.
"What is it?" Steph asked.
Jimmy took a breath and exhaled. "I was wondering if you would like to have breakfast with me tomorrow morning at my house. And you know where my house is."
Steph was confused. "I don't comprehend."
"My house is above the record shop. Just enter the store and in the back there's stairs that lead to my house. You should ask your folks if it's cool. My parents want to know you better." Jimmy said.
Steph smiled. "That seems lovely Jimmy. I will ask once I get off the phone and tell you the results as soon as I get an answer."
"That's great, I'm glad." Jimmy said.
"Well if we want to be friends we got to do stuff together right?" Steph asked sweetly.
"Yeah true." Jimmy replied. "Well I'll let you go and ask your parents. Talk to you soon Judas. Bye." Jimmy hung up the phone and Steph put her phone into its place.
Steph was bubbly and happy. Not only she would spend time with her friend/crush, she would get to hang out with him. She went downstairs and found Vicky and Danny talking.
Steph walked over to the couple. "Dad? Vicky?"
Danny looked at Steph. "Hey Stephanie, how was your day?"
"It was great Dad; I wanted to ask you and Vicky something." Steph said quickly.
"Slow down and ask us without being gibberish." Vicky joked. "What could we do for you?"
"Well, my new friend Jimmy asked me if he would have breakfast with me at his house tomorrow morning. Is that ok? His family owns the record store I frequently go to and I know his dad, Paul Watson. Their house is above the store and I'd really like to go. Please Dad? Please?" Steph begged.
Danny looked surprised. "He's a friend?"
"Yeah Dad, he's a friend. He wanted me to meet his family too." Steph said with sincere honesty.
"That's unusual for a friend to do, but I don't see anything wrong with that. Remember your manners too Stephanie." Danny childed.
"Yes Dad, I know. Thanks!" Steph gave Danny a hug, while Vicky nodded in approval about Steph's outing. She gave Vicky a hug too, went up to her room, and did a victory jig. Dorky yes, but Steph knew her dad was on good terms with her, at least for now.
Steph reached for her phone and dialed Jimmy's number once more, and Jimmy answered on the first ring.
"Hey Judas! So what did they say?" Jimmy asked.
"They said I could go." Steph beamed in happiness.
"That's great! I'll pick you up at 8:45 in the morning, and I'm glad you can make it." Jimmy smiled.
"Me too. Would you like my address?" Steph asked.
"That would help me tremendously." Jimmy laughed, and so did Steph.
Steph gave Jimmy her address.
"Thanks Judas, you're a lifesaver. Well talk to you tomorrow and have a great night." Jimmy said with a velvet tone.
"You too Jimmy. Bye, see you tomorrow." Steph cooed into the receiver.
"See you tomorrow." Jimmy hung up and so did Steph.
All Steph could do was imagine tomorrow would be. She wanted to know about his family, and see how cool they were.
Steph was tired, as her alarm clock read 11:30 P.M. She put her pajamas on and went to bed, excited about her day tomorrow with Jimmy.
Author's Note: Such a sweet chapter isn't it? Danny is in calmer waters, and Steph is on cloud nine. The chapter title is a song by Queen. I don't own it and I don't own Full House either. Keep on reading and comments and suggestions are appreciated! Rock on fanfic readers! :)
