"I'll meet you at seven o'clock," ? year old John Winchester said into the phone.
"Okay, I'll see you there," his girlfriend. Mary ? replied. "I love you."
"I love you, too," John concluded and hung up the phone. Then he hurried downstairs, grabbed a snack, and then
realized that he'd forgotten to put his uniform on, so he ran back up and changed. Finally, he was done and ran outside. He drove as fast as he could, knowing that his boss would be upset if he was late again.
"Right on time," John's boss, Chuck, said when he saw John pull up. Chuck could see the relief on John's face as he got out of the car and couldn't help but chuckle. "Yes, Johnny, you get to keep your job." Secretly, Chuck knew that he wouldn't fire John, Chuck liked having him around, and he was a damn good mechanic too. "Car one needs an oil change and something's wrong with Car Two but i don't know what yet."
"Kay Boss," John said and headed into the garage.

Finally, John finished everything he had to do. "Hey Boss, what time is it?" John called.
"Quarter of seven," Chuck called back.
"Shit," John aid. "I have to go. Can I go?"
"Did you finish?"
"Yes sir."
"Then get outta here!"
John smiled in thanks and ran out to his car. He drove hame as fast as he could, put on his tux, checked his pockets, and then rushed back out the door.
When he got into his car he checked the clock. "Shit." It was 7:05 and he still had to make a thirty minute drive. He knew it would take him less time, but he was sill going to be way too late.

"Would you like to order now Miss?" a female waitress asked Mary.
Mary looked at the clock. 7:13. "Not yet, I'm gonna give him a few more minutes."
"Yes Ma'am," the waitress said and moved on to the next table.
"John Winchester," Mary whispered to herself. "If you're not dead, I'm going to kill you."
At that moment, Mary saw the "Dead Man Walking" go over the the front desk, and saw the man behind the counter
point to where she was sitting.
He looks fine," Mary thought. Other than the fact that he's soaked. It must have started to rain. Dammit, will nothing go right today?
"Mary, I'm so sorry I'm..."
"Save it John. The only reason I waited was because I got breadsticks and didn't have money to pay. Now that you're here, I don't have to be anymore. Goodbye John," Mary said, and with that, she headed out into the rain.
John ran after her, but stopped at the front desk. "I'll be back I promise," and ran out into the rain as well.
"Mary! Please stop!" John called. "I got caught up at work, I swear I left as soon as I could! Please, just talk to me!"
"You wanna talk?" Mary yelled. "What do you wanna talk about, the fact that you ruined our two year anniversary, or the fact that you made me look like an idiot in there, sitting by myself, not ordering anything?"
"Mary, I'm sorry. I really did want this day to be special." John could tell that Mary probably wasn't going to calm down, so he decided to do it now. "Mary, there's something I want to ask you."
"What? Now? We're arguing John!"
"I know. Please, just humor me."
Mary rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, but didn't say anything. John took this as a sign to go. He reached into his pocket and dropped to his knees. "Mary, will you marry me?"
