As they are walking down the road they are enjoying a conversation and each others company. " So, Laurie, I had a really great time tonight." "I don't really like going to school functions but my folks made me go tonight, said it be a great way make some friends." "Turns out they were right." She looks up at him. "Oh. Yea?" She says with a grin. "We'll you can tell your folks you did make a friend tonight, even if it's a girl." She reaches out to hold his hand. " by the way, thank you for making my birthday special today."
"Its not a problem, I didnt know even know it was your birthday." "I'm glad you had a great night." "Yea, I'm 18 today." "Well happy birthday Laurie." The wind blows a gust of cold air, She shivers.
"It's pretty chilly out tonight." Dick takes his sweater off and wraps it around her. "Yea that fall air gets kind of nippy." "Here, maybe this will help." "Thanks."
(She says with a smile) "how far until your house?" "I've noticed we've passed up quite a few places so far." They come up to a driveway "Well this is me."
Dick turn to look at her and grabs her hand as she starts to walk away. "Hey, before you go can I ask you a question?" "Sure dick ask away." "Can I see you again tomorrow after school?" "Maybe. Just maybe. We shall see how the day goes." He leans in and gives her a kiss on the cheek. "Ok that works for me. Good night
Laurie" "Goodnight dick"
She walks into the house he waits for her close door behind her and he starts to head home. About halfway home the wind blew with an even colder chill then earlier, he realizes he left his sweater with Laurie and turns around to go get it.
