Juliana woke to a glorious morning. Sleeping in a bed is so delightful; one of the creature comforts she seriously missed. As she approached her garden to begin watering, she noted that several of the plants seemed to be shining a little brighter in the early morning sun. She kneeled down and inspected the closest plant. What a wonderful surprise! Her garden is improving in quality! She showered, ate some veggies, and played some games on her phone. Her fun paused for a text notification. It's from Justice! Juliana, would you like to go on a date with me? We had so much fun last time. Without hesitation, Juliana agreed and met Justice at the restaurant. Justice seemed much less nervous this time. He's a bit clumsy, and admitted that he becomes terribly self conscious around new people. That's why working in the garden is so great for him; the plants rarely talk back. The conversation moved comfortably from topic to topic, and Juliana found herself really, truly having a wonderful time. Justice looked at his watch, 'Oh man, it's a good thing neither of us has to work today, because we've been talking for two hours! Are you ready to eat?' Juliana smiled, 'Has that much time passed? It didn't feel like two hours!' The waitress came over and Justice ordered pizza for both of them. It smells delicious! They spent hours chatting about their hobbies, family life, pretty much everything. Juliana even felt comfortable enough around Justice to share some of her crazy ideas. All he did was smile patiently. He's certainly not the guy she initially thought he was! For dessert, they both ordered vanilla ice cream. It almost melted into a puddle while they jumped easily from the weather to music. The whole time, while slowly spooning their ice cream, they smiled and made goo goo eyes at each other. Finally the topic moved from interests to romance. After some flirting, Juliana gathered her courage, put on her most confident face and asked, 'Justice, um, are you single?' Justice smiled softly. 'I am, just like you are - but I'm not sure I want to stay that way much longer.' Juliana flushed slightly. Is this what love feels like? Around two o'clock in the morning, they decided it was time to head home. In front of the restaurant they continued chatting, unable to leave quite yet. Justice inched closer and closer to Juliana, erasing the distance between them. 'Juliana, I really like you. I hope we can do this again soon.' He reached around her, grasped her shoulders, and pressed his face into her soft, floral scented hair. Juliana returned the embrace with a subtle smile on her lips. What a night! Juliana began walking home stunned, with a silly grin on her face. What a mad, wonderful, fantastically romantic night! Please click 'Comments' to share your thoughts. Thank you!
