Part Four

~Who the fuck is calling at this time?!~ Crystal thought as she reached for the phone quickly checking the time. ~9:30am...Wtf?~ She picked up the phone and her voice squeaky she whispered, "Hello?"1

"Hey, it's me, John. Too early for ya?" She heard him laugh a bit and she smiled.2

"Yeah whatever, I'm fine. So how'd you get my number?" She couldn't remember giving it to him.3

"I managed. So how did you sleep?"4

"Alright..."5

"Okay, well you feel like going somehwere with me today? Or maybe I could come ov-"6

"Uh sure.. we could go somewhere if you wanted. " Her voice sounded panicky. ~Why don't I want him to come here?~ She wondered then noticed as she looked around her messy room; she was ashamed.7

"Okay, okay. When do you want me to come over?"8

"Umm...whenever's good for you."9

"Right now?"10

"Okay not right now!" She laughed.11

"I was just kidding, don't worry, I can tell you just woke up."12

"Thanks."13

"No problem...so..how about I give you three hours to wake up and get ready or something?"14

"Sounds good..thanks." She smiled as they said their goodbyes and she hung up the phone. 15

She picked her usual all black pant and shirt out of the pile of clean laundry on the floor; then searched for a clean pair of socks.16

~Okay..~ she thought as she stared at the mirror.17

She sighed before she turned  on the water for her shower. ~Today is gonna be better,~ she hoped.18

Stepping out of these shower she glanced into the mirror and glared.  She quickly pulled on some clothes she had left in the bathroom and walked into her bedroom to get ready.19

For the first time in her life, she had butterflies, she was really nervous. ~Don't worry, it'll go fine.~ She tried to calm herself. Pulling her hair up into a quick ponytail she glanced at the clock. ~Whoa...~ she though, ~did I take that long?!~ It was 11:45 and she was really shocked by how long she had taken in the shower. ~Oh well.~ She sighed and turned on her music to wait until it was 12:30.20

Her heart pounded when she heard the knock on the door downstairs.  Leaping down the stairs she hollered at the seemingly empty house, "I got it!" Before she whipped open the door a huge grin on her face.21

"Hey," he said smiling.22

"Hey." She was still grinning.  Crystal slipped on her sneakers before allowing John to lead her away from her home. "So where are we off to?" He smiled at her, his deep brown eyes glowing.23

"Where ever you want!" He grinned then kissed her forehead.24
