“This hotel is amazing!” Sam squeals with excitement as she opens the door to our room. “Okay, you have to agree with me that I made a pretty good judgment on going with this hotel.”
“Yes, I have to hand it to you, you did a good job.” I say. “What other surprises do you have up your sleeve?”
“You will just have to wait and find out.” Sam replies.
“Knowing you, it will probably be something that I won’t want to do and then you will talk me into your bad plans like you always do.” I state.
“That’s what friends are for.” Sam says taking my comment as a compliment.
“What does our evening look like tonight?” I ask.
“First things first, let’s get out of these travel clothes.” Sam says sticking her tongue out as she pulls on her oversized

“It’s fun to tease him knowing he is going to have to wait a week for this.”
“You’re so mean!” I say.
“Boys want what they can’t have.” Sam says. “It just makes him love me that much more when I get home.”
“Oh Sam.” I say. She has the answer for everything.
“You just about ready there girl?” Sam asks.
“Just about.” I say “ I just need to put on my other earring.”
“Fabulous!” Sam squeals as I come out to grab my purse and shoes.
“Why hello there tiger.” I say to her. Her hair is done up in big volumous curls.
“All right then, let’s go!” Sam shouts.
Sam links her arm through mine and we head out.
“So where are you taking me?” I ask.
“Just follow me and you will see.” Sam says.
We walk out the front of the hotel and you can see the sun starting to set. The sky is vibrant with colors of rosy pink, scarlet red, blood orange and some deep, velvety purple. It seems like the perfect night for exploring. San Francisco is so beautiful. Like I said before, at night is when the city comes alive. We walk about 3 blocks away from our hotel. We pass several old buildings with beautiful architecture. I eye up a few quaint boutiques along the way making note of where they are so maybe Sam will let me go tomorrow or one of the days at least. We are not too far from the water and as I look out I see the lights glimmering in the reflection on the still water. I bet Aden would love it here. Maybe next year we can plan a trip here
“Why don't you change out of those clothes, the skirt's seen better days,” she says, allowing her gaze to travel the length of my body.
“Nay, we’re staying at a friend’s oceanfront home, this time seeing the sites and enjoy the warmer weather California has to offer.”
“Okay, okay. Are you coming with me to Chicago?” “Who else will be there to see you do amazing?” I smile. We grab our coffee and leave for school.
“ Got it, I can try my best to make it, but no promises.” I said
“Here’s the thing, the previous relationship was so damaged,. Two adults, we wouldn’t dare to venture into a relationship, but we are exploring each other’s company, I will say.”
“I feel excited, mostly, but I’m nervous about the changes. I am not sure you’ll be pleased with one of my suggestions.”
"But I meant what I said." He took my free hand. "I've been wanting to do this for a while but I wasn't sure if you wanted to do it or not."
"I'm planning on it. The guy just can't seem to take no for answer. It's crazy we never even dated, and he can't let go."
“You know,” he whispered against your ear as you tried to pull away. “If you didn’t actually want to do this, you probably shouldn’t have tried to seduce me.”
Rebecca scoffed “You have to make a decision, we will have fun with them later,” she said
"Shake a leg. I need you to come down and eat breakfast. Then you can help pack the car we're going to the fair."
“I understand perfectly. You think if you just roll up on her, and demand she return to suburbia with you, she’ll freak out and run away screaming.”
“Oh,” he said with a snicker, “in that case, never mind. I wouldn’t want to cheat. . . .”
“You shouldn’t make promise you can’t keep,” she says resting her hand on my chest. “He won’t go down easy.”
Rose!” I yell back to her, I pick up the headband I made and run to her. As I see her I laugh and run quicker launching myself into her, pouncing into a hug.
