The next day, Katherine could hardly contain the excitement she felt. She had a date! She had a real date! Not that she hadn't gone out on dates before, but this time she wouldn't have to worry about being in somebody else's shadow. It was just her and Mick. She walked into Reefside Friends and began setting up. She started humming.
"You sound happy," a voice noted. Katherine turned around to see Jason.
"Well, I am," Katherine responded.
"Why's that?" Jason asked.
"I have a date tonight," Katherine told him.
"With who?" Jason asked suspiciously.
"Mick Soul," Katherine said.
"The cop?" Jason queried.
"Yeah. He's a good guy. I think you'd like him," Katherine stated.
"Well, I'm happy for you. Really," Jason said, as he began helping her.
"How are things going with you and Emily?" Katherine wondered.
"All right. I hate lying to her, but---what can I do?" Jason responded with a shrug.
"Yeah, that can a problem," Katherine agreed. "But I wouldn't trade this experience for anything in the world," she continued.
"Oh, no. I wouldn't either," Jason agreed. They grinned.
"I've got to say, it's good to feel the rush again. I mean, being a dancer was great, but nothing can compare to what we do," Katherine commented. Jason looked around.
"What else can I do?" he wondered.
"Do you mind getting some mats from the closet?" Katherine queried.
"No, I don't mind," Jason replied. He went to do that as Katherine turned on the blenders. Presently, the doors opened.
"Jason, here they come!" Katherine called, as he came out with the last mat.
"Just in time too," Jason said, as he placed it on the floor. Then, the kids came flooding in. Half of them went directly to the counter to order drinks, while the other half went over to Jason and started talking.
