Evelyn followed her friends into the busy club. Right away, the nurses spotted the group of pilots hovering by the bar. Betty whispered into Evelyn's ear, "Look! There's your pilot!" Evelyn quickly turned around and searched for the handsome pilot. All of a sudden, there he was sitting at a booth with a sweet looking man. The second man seemed quite upset about something.

Evelyn quickly tossed the idea of going to talk to him in her head. If she did she would seem eager and desperate, maybe the better idea would be to go unnoticed for a while, perhaps play a little hard to get.

Suddenly, the unknown pilot caught Evelyn's eye. Evelyn was startled by the concentrated stare coming from his chocolate brown eyes. But somehow, she couldn't turn away; she was transfixed by his mysterious glance. Then, the stare was broken, and both Evelyn and the pilot blushed. Evelyn turned away and followed her friends into the powder room.

******************************************** " Rafe!! Did you see that nurse? Oh, god, she was beautiful! She had the prettiest eyes. But, there was just something about her, something that made me think I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her! I don't even know her name!"

"Danny! Danny! Calm yourself! Point her out to me!"

"She went with some friends into the bathroom.Ill point her out when I see her. But Rafe! I HAVE to meet her! She's perfect! Im gonna go find her."

Danny slid out of the booth and disappeared into the crowd. Meanwhile, Rafe couldn't stop thinking about Evelyn. God, she's so beautiful! I have to find a way to see her again. There is a group of nurses. I might go over and ask about her. It couldn't hurt anything!

Rafe got up a slowly strolled over to the group of giggling nurses. Immediately, one turned and introduced herself.

"Hi, handsome! I'm Betty, what's your name?"

"Umm.Rafe, but really I just had a question, do any of you know a nurse named Evelyn? I met her the other day at a screening and didn't have a chance to talk to her."

All of a sudden, the nurses quieted and darted glances at each other. They stepped away to reveal Evelyn standing there. She looked radiant with her hair done up and her dress uniform on. Rafe could do nothing but stare. Suddenly he remembered his manners and mustered up the courage to speak.

"Um.hi, I don't think that you would remember me, First Lieutenant McCawley. you met me the other day at a screening.I think that you passed me.." Rafe stammered to find the words, but finally finished his statement.

"Of course I remember you! I'm Evelyn. Do you want to go get a drink or something?"

"Um.no, that's okay, I don't drink, but if maybe you'd like to sit down?

"Alright." Evelyn replied. He's so polite and handsome, he's perfect!

They reached the table and Rafe pulled out Evelyn's chair and helped her push it in and then sat down next to her.

"You know," Rafe, stammered, "I haven't been able to stop thinking about you since the day we met." Rafe blushed with his sudden confession.

Hearing this, Evelyn in turn blushed. "Oh you have, have you?" She didn't think that she should tell him that she couldn't stop thinking about him.

******************************************* Danny was walking around frantically searching for the mysterious nurse. After 20 minutes of not being able to find her, he headed back to where Rafe was sitting with a woman who he could only see from the back. He quickly decided that he didn't want to interrupt and left the club to head back to the hotel where him and his friends were staying.

****************************************** After 30 minutes of getting to know each other, Rafe suggested that they go on a moonlit walk. As they walked along the pier and watched the moon shine over the water, Evelyn suddenly remembered the mysterious pilot and the intense stare of Rafe's companion.

"Rafe? Who was that man you were sitting with?" she asked?

"Oh, that's Danny. Him and I have been best friends since we were kids. I kinda take care of him; he's my whole family, were all each other have. I guess that he left for the hotel. He's pretty shy when it comes to the ladies." Rafe explained.

"I see," Evelyn said. "But you, you're not shy why the ladies are you?"

Rafe laughed and responded, "How did you guess?"

"I guess it was your charm and good looks!" Evelyn said.

"How's this for charm?" Rafe asked as he took Evelyn in his arms and leaned down.

For an instant, time seemed to be frozen as they looked into each other's eyes. Then both leaned in for a passionate kiss at the same moment and didn't stop for a long time.
