"Simple Date"
"I didn't think you were going to show up tonight, Bella," Charles said.
"Well I wasn't sure if I really wanted to date a soldier. You come and go, and sometimes you are not sure when you will be back." Bella stood there, looking into his sky blue eyes that had captured her heart when she met him. "But how can I resist those blue eyes of yours? I figured one date would not be so bad."
They walked together through the field, toward the stream where he had set up a picnic dinner for both of them.
"Oh, Charles, this looks wonderful," Bella said, looking at the arrangement of food he had out.
They sat down and begin to eat, while talking and getting to know each other.
"Oh my, the sun is starting to set. I should be getting home, we have the harvest tomorrow. You are welcome to come if you would like."
"Harvesting crops, I have never done that before. I think it sounds nice, as long as I can be with you," Charles said, looking into Bella's deep green eyes.
Charles and Bella packed up the picnic and headed through the field. When they arrived at Bella's house, Charles took her by the hand and looked right into her eyes. "I had a great time tonight, Bella. I hope we can do this again." He kissed her and then walked to his car.
"Wow," was all Bella could say.
