CHAPTER THIRTEEN.

- PRESENT

it was a usual thursday night for zach and jack.
the day of the week was always slow
for the diner zach worked at.
so the two would sit
in their usual booth near the window
with milkshakes in front of them.

" i suppose we should go on a date soon.
don't you think? "

the conversation starter made jack grow
shy. a coating of blush now applied to his
cheeks.

" only if you want to. "

this is the only thing
he had thought of ever
since seeing zach for
the first time.

he really wanted this.
but only if zach did as well.

" it's settled then.
meet me here
on saturday at seven. "
