Chapter 23
Kennedy left a little while ago. I was just sleeping for the entire time. I take a nice shower, and blow dry my hair.
I get a call from Joe.
"Hello?" I ask, my voice all groggy after just waking up in the morning.
"You okay Allison?" he asks.
"Course! What's up?"
"Meet me outside?" he says.
"Sure! What time?" I ask curiously.
"I'm outside so when you're ready!" He yells through the phone.
Well, since I don't want him waiting very long for me, I quickly put on a nice dress and some makeup, because I think this is a date. When I put on high heels and walk down the stairs, Laura rushes!
"Oh my God! You're so grown up!"
"You've only lived with me for two days," I mutter, laughing my head off.
"I've known you since you were a kid." Laura mutters.
I text Kennedy.
Me- Going on a date!
Kennedy- First official date OMG OMG OMG!
Me- BAI! Gtg!
Kennedy- BAI Ttyl!
Me- ❤️ YA!
Kennedy- 😊😍❤️👍🏻
I walk outside my house, only to see Joe, with a nice car. What happened?! He's technically homeless.
"JOE?!" I ask in disbelief.
"Allison, don't you look pretty tonight," he mutters with a smile forming on his face.
I can see Joe in a nice, fancy suit. He's holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a large bear.
"Not the Big Hunka Love Bear..." I mutter, "Don't worry Joe, I won't send the bear off to law school and waste all your cell minutes with the bear."
Joe laughs. "Oh, that Ellen commercial! That was so funny!"
Joe wraps me in a hug, while I take the bear and the flowers in my right arm. Joe walks me to the car. I place my items in the back and sit in the passenger seat.
"Joe?" I ask calmly, once we're on the road.
"Yes, Allison?"
"How did you get this suit and this car?!" I ask in disbelief.
"You know my grandmother's old house I live in?"
I nod.
"Ok, so her husband had a really nice car and really nice suits and men's attire."
I nod. "Thanks, Joseph."
"Joseph doesn't roll off the tongue well. Allison whatever your middle name is Mitchell."
"It's Irene."
"Okay. Allison Irene Mitchell. Beautiful. Not Joseph Henry Edwards."
"I've never heard your full name before. It's beautiful."
"Yours neither, Allison."
Once we arrive at the restaurant, the waiter sits us down at a romantic private table in the corner next to the water fountain of the outside patio.
We order cokes and fried chicken.
Joe says, "How's Laura?"
"Great! You can come over if you would like?"
"That's so sweet!" Joe replies.
After we finish our long talk at dinner, Joe takes me back in the car. He drives through this long area of trees. We find a lake. Joe puts on sexy music on his phone and he steps back. He tries to ballroom dance, and then after we fail he takes me home.
