Chapter 11

David put the fish in his refrigerator, jumped in the shower and then headed to the supermarket. He’d invited Hannah for dinner and he didn’t have much else in the house besides fish. And it had been a very long time since he’d cooked for anyone, especially a girl. He didn’t want to screw it up. As he walked into the market, he decided to consult an expert. Maggie answered on the first ring.

“Hey! What are you up to?”

“I’m at the market and I need your advice. Are you busy?” It was a little past four, kind of an in-between time for the restaurant.

“Not yet. I’m just cutting fruit and getting ready for tonight.”

“Okay, so I went fishing with Hannah today and she’s coming over tonight to eat what we caught. I’m planning to grill the fish. What else should I do?”

“Hannah’s coming for dinner? That’s great. Hm, why don’t you grab a bag of those little new potatoes, slice them in half, toss with some olive oil, salt and pepper, wrap in tin foil and let them cook on the grill along with the fish. Do the same with some asparagus, just add a little lemon and parmesan.”

“I think I can manage that. What about dessert?”

“Go to the bakery and find something chocolatey. Every girl likes chocolate.”

“Got it. Thanks, Mags.”

“Anytime. Tell Hannah I said hi. And don’t worry. You’ve got this.”

David smiled as he hung up the phone. He could always count on his sister. Maggie didn’t ask any uncomfortable questions, she just gave him the information he needed and wished him well. He loved that about her.

He quickly found what he needed, and got everything prepped and ready to go so that when Hannah arrived, he could throw it all on the grill. He was surprised to find that he was a little nervous, too. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d felt like this around a girl. He knew that it was partly because he couldn’t get a good read on Hannah. She was pleasant enough and she seemed to have a good time out on the boat, but he couldn’t tell if she was interested in him, that way. He hoped that he’d find out soon.
