GEORGIA

I’m on a date. A real date. A date with a man. Oh my god, what am I doing? I’ve never been out on a date before. I’m completely clueless. He’s a man Georgia and you’re barely a woman. What could you do for a man like him that he couldn’t find in someone else that is more experienced?

I shake off my negative thoughts and try and be in the moment and be as brave as I hopefully sound. My hand tingles where Carter is holding it. Little does he know that he’s getting to be my first date, my first kiss, first hand-hold. He’s getting them all. He walks us towards the restaurant with a sign that reads Diner above the door. There’s nothing special about the place, nothing that stands out, but I don’t care. I’m not here for the food. I’m here because Carter asked me to go with him.

Like a schoolgirl, I flirted shamelessly trying to catch his attention, but now that I’ve got it I don’t know what to do with myself or with him for that matter. I never thought he’d be interested, let alone ask me out on a date. My heart is beating rapidly in my chest and my hand feels clammy in his. I have a sudden urge to run away as fast as I can, but I don’t because then I’d look like an even bigger spaz.

When we walk in, I’m surprised to find the place is packed, with only a couple of tables empty. It’s warm and smells delicious, just like Carter said it would. There are people talking and laughing while they sip their coffee and eat their breakfast.

“Two today Carter?” A woman with black hair streaked with grey and a kind face asks, looking and sounding surprised to see me with him.

“Yes, ma’am. Could we have a booth, Ms. Tammy?”

“You got it sugar.” She says grabbing two paper menus and silverware rolls.

Following behind Tammy, Carter leads us to the booth. People say hi and wave to Carter as we pass. Once we get to the table he waits for me to sit down before he scoots in the booth on the opposite side of me.

“What would you like to drink honey?” Tammy asks after setting down our menus and silverware, looking at me.

“Oh, can I just have some orange juice, please? With some ice?”

“Absolutely. Carter?”

“Coffee. You know how I like it.”

“You got it. I’ll be back with your drinks.”

I watch Tammy walk away, stopping to check on a table. Carter nudges my foot with his, so I turn to face him and he’s got a mischievous grin spread across his face.

“I take it you come here a lot.”

Carter nods. “Almost every day.”

“Every day? No wonder they know you here.” I laugh.

“Just wait. You’ll try their pancakes and then be begging me to bring you with for breakfast every morning.”

Arching my brow, I fold my arms on the table and level him with my most serious expression. “I don’t beg.
