ddLiz blinked at the typed words before her in astonishment, not daring to believe what they inferred. "I think we should meet…" Were they finally to going to face each other and find out who the other person is? Many images and thoughts zipped around inside Liz's head. All centered around the anonymous guy on the net. Thoughts of what he'd be like in person, what he looked like, and how their encounter will turn out. Should she risk it? Ever since she met Max, she had to be really cautious on who she befriended or talked to, on the off-chance they were the enemy. It was a lonely life, but one she wouldn't change… Except for the distance between her and Max. Would he ever forgive her?

ddShe shook her head to clear it of that pestering thought. It wasn't going to help to dwell on something she couldn't fix. Not at the moment, at least. Besides, her online friend was awaiting a response.

E.T.: "Um, how about Saturday around 2? We could meet at Saturn's. I'll wear a red rose pinned to my shirt."

AlienLuvR: "Alright. Saturday at Saturn's. That should be easy to remember. I'll wear a rose, so we'll both spot each other."

E.T.: "Good. Listen, I've got to go study for some exams, so I'll see you Saturday. Talk to you then."
p
AlienLuvR: "Night and good luck with the tests."
