A knock was heard on the front door and Jenny hurried to answer. "I'll get it!" She shouted, as Winston came out of the kitchen and her father poked his head out of his study where he was reading the morning newspaper.

"Good morning Jeremy!" She said when she opened the door and saw her friend on the front steps in a green T shirt and blue jeans.

"J-Jenny...!" He stammered as he saw her in a blue dress and with her red hair in pigtails with blue ribbons tied in them and black flats on her feet.

"How do I look?" She asked him.

"You look incredible Jenny." He said and she blushed.

"Oh, Jeremy you are so sweet!" She replied.

"So, what would you like to do first?" Jeremy asked.

"Central park!" She replied with a large smile.

"Okay." He said.

"Daddy I am going to the park with Jeremy!" Jenny yelled.

"Okay princess, have fun!" He shouted back and Jenny grabbed her friends hand trying to ignore the spark that she felt whenever they held hands as they entered the park.

"So, where to first?" Jeremy asked looking around.

"How about a carriage ride?" Jenny suggested.

"All right." He replied as they headed for the horse drawn carriages.

"Ladies first." Jeremy said as he helped her into the carriage.

"You are a real gentleman." Jenny said as she smiled at him and he sat down and took her hand as the ride started.

"Wow that was so much fun!" Jeremy said half an hour later. "Would you like to get some ice cream?"

"Yes that sounds good. It's hot today." Jenny replied.

"What flavor would you like?" Jeremy asked.

"Strawberry please!" Jenny answered.

"Okay." He said.

"Good morning! What can I get you children?" The ice cream vendor asked.

"She would like a strawberry cone and I would like a chocolate please." Jeremy said.

"Coming right up!" The vendor replied. "Here you go!"

He handed them their cones.

"Thank you." The children said and they continued on their way.

"Yumm! This is good ice cream!" Jeremy remarked and Jenny nodded in agreement as they sat together on a bench.

"So, what can we do next?" Jeremy asked.

"The central park zoo." Jenny said.

"Lets go!" He answered as the children finished their ice cream.

"I had so much fun Jeremy!" Jenny said 2 hours later as they stood on her front steps.

"Me too." Jeremy replied as he tried not to show how disappointed he is that their day of fun is over

"Would you like to hang out with me for a while?" Jenny asked and Jeremy brightened.

"Yes!" He replied with a smile.

"Good! Lets go inside out of this heat." Jenny said and she and Jeremy went in the house.

"Daddy we're back!" Jenny called as the air conditioning hit them.

"Okay princess!" Came his voice from the study as Jenny took her hair out of the pigtails.

"Jeremy, I will be right back I have to comb my hair." Jenny said.

"Okay." He said and Jenny hurried up to her room.

"Hello Jeremy." Mrs. Foxworth said as she came from the kitchen.

"Hello Mrs. Foxworth." He replied.

"Hello mom." Jenny said as she came downstairs again.

"Hello, did you children have fun today?" Mrs. Foxworth asked.

"Yes." Jenny answered.

"That's wonderful." Mrs Foxworth said.

"Oh, Jennifer you're home! Wonderful! Lunch is almost ready." Winston said when he came from the kitchen.

"What are we having?" Jenny asked.

"Filet mignon." He answered.

"Mom, can Jeremy stay for lunch?" Jenny asked.

"Of course he can!" She said.

"Thank you mom!" Jenny said as she hugged her.

"You're welcome Jenny." She answered.

"Come on Jeremy we should go wash our hands." Jenny said as she took Jeremy's hand and they went upstairs as Mrs. Foxworth smiled.

"What a fine, well mannered young man. Jenny really seems to like him and he clearly likes her too. I think I have a future son-in-law...!" She thought to herself.

"Thank you for inviting me for lunch." Jeremy said.

"You're welcome." Jenny replied as they dried their just washed hands "And after lunch we can play video games. I got a nintendo for christmas last year!"

"Cool!" Jeremy replied.

"Its in my room." Jenny said as she led Jeremy to her room and opened the door, giving him his first look at her room. There was a T.V. stand against the wall next to the door with a T.V. that had a V.C.R. and a Nintendo connected to it.

"Lunch is ready!" Came Winston's voice from downstairs.

"Come on, Jeremy." Jenny said and they hurried down to the dining room.
