When I got back to my office I just started doing my work as fast as I could. I was done in an hour (about 10 minutes before Jeremy got back) and told the other secretary named Susie I had finished work and I was going home. She said all right. I grabbed my brief case and started going down the stairs as fast as I could. Right as I was about to exit the building and make a dash for my car I seen another car park and Jeremy, Bill, and some other guys who must’ve been in the band get out of the car. I quickly turned around walked down another 5 hallways and exited there and walked back down the other 5 hallways outside to get to my car. The ride home a million things should’ve been running through my head but they weren’t. I just had an odd silence about me. It was as if I was in a blank trance. I pulled over at the same café I had stopped in a few mornings before and bought some coffee and the dream book. I sat down and started reading it. As I was reading some guys who had been sitting at another table came and sat by me. The guys name was Andrew. He started asking about me and I finally said, “What do you want of me?” He laughed and said, “Well how about a date tonight.” This guy looked just like a younger version of Jeremy. I said, “Sorry I’ve got my sights on someone else.” He said, “Who?” I said, “Just someone.” He said, “Well he can’t be better then me.” Right as he said that I saw Jeremy walk into the café up to our table. I near freaked figuring Alex had told him everything. I said quickly before he reached our table, “I…ah look at the time. I better get going.” He said, “Ah wait and meet my brother at least.” I near had a heart attack. Jeremy walked up and said, “Hey bro I see you met Amanda.” Andrew said, “This is Amanda? Oh my God. Um yeah.” He gave me a look like please don’t mention we had been flirting. I said, “Yeah I better go. Bye Andrew and Jeremy.” I ran out of there so fast! When I got home I just sat down and watched TV in a sort of zombie manner. When I went to sleep I prayed those dreams wouldn’t come back. They did. I had a dream that Jeremy and me got married. When I woke up I thought it was real until I looked at the clock and it said 5:45 and Jeremy wasn’t beside me. I took my shower and this time I tried to dress up again. I wore a blue skirt and white t-shirt with a blue jacket. I put on make up, perfume, the works. I thought I looked good anyways! When I got to work I sat down at my desk. When the daily deliveries came there was a huge bouquet of flowers for me in them. There was a card in it that had a phone number and was signed ‘you know who.’ I could’ve killed him because I was so embarrassed. People kept asking who they were from and I would just say someone. At lunchtime I just prayed he wouldn’t show up. Thankfully he didn’t. I think Alex probably mentioned the part about me being shy. The day passed pretty normal. I went home trouble free. I was sitting at my computer checking out some sites I used to go to when I was young. I was also listening to Diana Krall again. Right as dream a little dream was almost over I heard a knock on my door. I paused the music and got up and there was Jeremy. He said, “Hi I just wanted to bring your book back. You left it at the café yesterday.” He handed me the book and I said, “Thanks.” You could cut the nerves with a knife. He said, “Did you like the flowers?” I blushed. No one had ever pursued me this far. I decided he had won. “Yeah thanks. So maybe I’m reading this wrong or something but what do you want from me?” Him and his brother must share pick up lines because he said, “I don’t know…. Maybe a date or something sometime would be nice.” I could tell he was one of those guys who were never nervous. Except for when he was doing something real important and asking me out must have been one of those things. He seemed real nervous. I was speechless. After what seemed like an eternity but was only a few seconds I said, “All right. When and where?” He smiled and said, “Really? Um I didn’t think you would say yes but I guess the movies tomorrow at 7? I’ll pick you up.” I said, “All right.”
