"Tucker, we need to talk," Scarlett said.
"What is this about?" He reached for her hand and patted it gently. "Ah, is this about the date we didn't get to do? You don't have to worry about that, Scar. I have solved everything."
"What do you mean?" Scarlett asked. She was perplexed. What she had in mind was entirely different.
"I have decided to take you out this Saturday. It isn't a full moon, so you are safe." Tucker chuckled nervously, even though he didn't know why. "My parents will be out, so we will have the house to ourselves. Don't worry, Sara is staying at my aunt's place throughout the weekend."
How would she tell him that she wants to take a break to figure out how she really feels if he is out there preparing a perfect date for them? "Tucker." Scarlett called gently.
"Oh. I remember now. Your mom won't allow you to stay the night at my place, so you are bothered. It is all sorted out. We won't sleep over at my place. We will use yours instead."
