Chapter 8

Diana and Tony were so excited to be homeowners that they spent the rest of the afternoon carting things back and forth from both of their places to their new home. They ate hastily put together ham sandwiches in the back of the limo, and plotted out where the furniture would go best. Very quickly they realized that they would have to buy quite a bit of new furniture. When the movers (very quickly hired) arrived and then put first Tony’s full-size bed and then Diana’s twin-sized futon in their master bedroom, they knew that they’d have to go buy a queen; there was simply no other option. And because Diana had lived in a tiny studio and Tony in a modest one bedroom apartment and they were moving into a five-story home, even the nice furniture they could boast between them couldn't cover the entire floor.

“Well, then,” said Tony. “It’s lucky I’m loaded. We’re loaded,” he said. “What are you up to tonight? IKEA run?”

“Or we could just order stuff offline,” yawned Diana. She’d had quite a lot of decision-making to do that day and she didn’t feel like waltzing around yet another box store. She suddenly sat up straight, almost bumping her head on the roof of the limo. “Ah, I nearly forgot, in all of the excitement,” she said. She peered at her watch. “Bachelorette for Joy’s in half an hour.”

“You take the limo, then, and head over,” said Tony.

Diana looked at what she was wearing. She shrugged. “Sure,” she said.

“I can pick up some of the necessities for home, then,” said Tony. “If you trust me to make design choices.”

“I think you’d probably know better than me what those are,” said Diana.

“Debatable,” said Tony, smiling.

“Well, either way, I look forward to being surprised.”

“I’ll remind you that you said that,” said Tony. “So—you take the car, I’ll see you after. He leaned over to kiss Diana on the cheek, and it both took them by surprise how easy and natural this felt. Diana blushed anyway, and then she ran back to pragmatic matters. This was often her security blanket.

“Ah,” she said, “Wait. If I’m taking the car, how are you going to get home?”

“We’re not that far, I could walk. Or I’ll just call the car service and get another driver out here in five minutes. Don’t worry about me. Head over to your friend’s, and let me know when you’re on your way home.”

“Okay,” said Diana. She paused again. “Don’t feel like you have to wait up or anything,” she said, awkwardly.

“I know, I know. You’ve got keys, you’re a big girl, you’ll be fine.”

Diana rolled her eyes. “See you later.”

“See you.”

Tony hopped out of the car. Diana waved at him and then instructed the driver to take her to the restaurant her friend had indicated.

Diana felt lucky—for many reasons, but at that specific point in time, she felt lucky because tonight’s affair, despite the name, was going to be relatively low-key. They’d already taken
