Chapter 9

Nervousness

Ruthie

The worst thing about curly hair is it's so hard to get the tangles out!(( it is so true! I know!))I can't decide if I should put on make up or not. I don't even know what I'm going to wear!

I don't know why this date makes me nervous! But I am. That explains how Martin walked in on me struggling with my hair, after his shower.

I didn't notice he came in at first, because I was too engrossed in my nervousness.

Martin wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my cheek making me jump, and then laugh.

"Are you okay, Ruthie?" Martin asked as he sat down on my bed, and pulled me over to sit on his lap.

"Martin, I can't ever remember being this nervous for a first date before," I confessed as I enclosed my arms around his neck. Maybe I was nervous because I was hoping this would be my last first date, but I couldn't say that out load.

"It's okay, Ruth. I'm nervous, too," Martin replied, encircled his arms around my waist. "You don't have to be nervous, babe, I love you, annoyances and all," he added.

That made me smirk. "I love you, too, pest," I tossed back. He chuckled.

Then Martin leaned in and kissed me.

After a while I pulled back and said, "You better let me get ready, or there might not be a date."

Martin clutched his heart, and said in a fake, wounded voice, "Oh no, my sweetheart is threatening me. I'm so frightened!"

"You should be, Brewer," I said as I headed for the bathroom door. I turned around to see him again.

Martin winked and said, "Love you, Ruth."

I smiled, "I love you, too."
