First and Last
Dinner Plans
Blue and Melissa arrived back to their hotel a bit after eleven thirty p.m.
Both were exhausted and slept until ten the following morning. Blue was up with two cups of coffee when Melissa trudged out of the bathroom in a big t-shirt and pajama shorts.
“Coffee?” Blue offered a mug to her.
“I love you girl,” Missy groaned, taking it from her hand and took a long drink from it.
Blue smile, taking a sip from the dark liquid as Missy set hers down on the bedside table and looked at her.
“What did you think about last night?” Blue asked, slipping into the bathroom.
“I thought it was very interesting,” Melissa called, “I totally understand why you love them so much.”
Blue laughed, washing her face before applying the dark eyeliner that rimmed her eyes.
“So, I guess we’ll be going back home then?”
“Yeah, we have work tomorrow silly!”
Melissa laughed, pulling some clothes out of her travel case and prepared for a morning shower.
“When will we be leaving?” she called out as the door slammed behind her.
Blue took another drink of coffee before answering, “As soon as I’m ready. That means when I’m done with my shower, dressed, and ready to hit the road.”
“I know what it means.”
*** By the time Blue and Melissa left their hotel, it was close to eleven-thirty. Too late for breakfast, but in time for “brunch.”
Blue stopped off to fill up on gas before hitting the highway and both girls ended up buying coffee, bottles of water, and a few snacks before leaving Chicago.
As they pulled away from the last, and probably most expensive, toll booth, Blue’s phone began to chirp. Melissa looked down at it before picking it up. She flipped it open and her eyes widened.
“What? Is it from Mary-Kate?” Blue asked suddenly, afraid Graham had gotten sick.
“No,” Melissa turned to show the phone to her, “it’s Gerard!”
Blue kept her eyes on the road, “You know I can’t look at my phone while I’m driving, Melissa. I’m afraid I’ll crash.”
“You won’t crash,” Missy rolled her eyes, “I do it all the time. Hell, hundreds of people do it.”
“Well I don’t,” Blue muttered, “Can you tell me what Gerard is asking for?”
“He’s not asking for anything,” Melissa replied, looking at the text, “he says ‘Good morning, Blue’.”
“Could you tell him ‘Good morning,’ for me?”
Melissa nodded, typing the message. The phone chirped after a couple of seconds and Melissa flipped it open again.
“He’s curious if you’re free tomorrow night.”
Blue turned off the intersection towards Oshkosh as a blush danced across her features. Melissa snickered, “He likes you.”
“What?! NO! He can’t be interested in someone like me!”
Melissa laughed out at Blue’s expression of sheer terror, “Why not? From the way he kept looking at you last night, I know he’s interested.”
“But I’m so… plain. And socially-awkward. Gerard is sweet, nice, and excepting. Why would he take an interest in me only to toss me aside later on?”
“I don’t think he’ll do that, Blue. When he pulled you outside last night, I saw a spark.”
Blue looked over at Melissa, raising her brow, “A spark?”
“Just hear me out?”
“Fine…”
Melissa smiled, leaning back into the seat, “When I saw both of you leave to go outside, I knew he had taken an interest in you. And, then you told the guys about your… accident, I swear I saw his eyes grow to the size of tea cup saucers. I know he doesn’t want to anyone else because of you. You touched his heart in some way and I think he’s afraid of what might happen to you.”
Blue tapped her thumbs against the steering wheel. Could he be interested in me?
She turned toward Melissa.
“Tell him I might be free.”
