The Puzzling Moment

Ch. 4 The First Date

Sara's Pov:

We were at the restaurant and everything was going wrong. First everything was ok. Then I accidentally dumped champagne all down the front of Nick's shirt. He said it was ok, but I felt so guilty.

Why was the evening turning into such a disaster?

Just to make matters worst, while I was looking at my menu it caught on fire by the candle light! I was so embarrassed! So Nick suggested that we go to a movie instead.

At the movie, everything was doing fantastic. We were watching a horror movie called Hide and Seek. We were eating popcorn and drinking soda. All of a sudden the little girl started to call her friend Charlie. Then something freaky happened and I screamed. Right away Nick took me in his arms and I grew stiff. I felt very safe in his arms and that nobody or anything could hurt me.

A Little later I realized that he had fallen asleep with me in his arms. When the movie was over I woke him. He seemed shocked to find out that he had fallen asleep.

"Well that sure was a perfect ending to a perfect evening!" I thought sarcastically.

But, out of the blue he asked me if I would like to go back to his place for a while. I graciously accepted and off we went. When we arrived at his place I wondered what we would do. He took my coat and told me to sit down on the couch while he hung up our coats. So while he tended to that I pondered what was to come.

Finally, he returned and sat down next to me. We chit chatted for a while. Until finally he kissed me and I kissed him back. We did that for what seemed only a few seconds then he was leading me to what I would guess was his bedroom. As he plopped me down on his bed I wondered if this was all a mistake or if I was just being paranoid. Finally, I relaxed and let him take over.

------------------------------------------Next Morning-----------------------------------------------

That morning I woke up next to him in his bed and I knew what we had done. But this time I didn't have any regrets or paranoia. So I laid closer to him so that I could feel his warmth. Then, I drifted into a deep sleep, snuggling under Nick's arm with a smile on my face that would be bigger than many would have after having just spent a wonderful night with the one they love.
