They passed the rest of the drive to the theatre with other ranch topics. Nick came around to her side of the truck and helped her out. At the ticket window the young girl had a hard time concentrating on the transaction because of Nick’s good looks. Lindsay felt sorry for the clerk; she herself was in the same position.
Nick and Lindsay found their seats with minutes to spare before the movie began. The movie was good the few parts that Lindsay concentrated on. She was really just putting on a good act to not give herself away. She wanted this to be her dream come true, he chance to date Nick and have him want to be with her. These were not the circumstances she had hoped for.
After the movie, they went to the ice cream shop and got a sundae. The topics of conversation were pleasant and soon they were driving up to the main house at the ranch. Nick once again helped Lindsay from the truck and walked with her into the house. Lindsay stopped in the living room and sat down. No one else was around so they could continue their conversation.
“Did you have a good enough time to go out with me again?” Nick asked when there was break in the conversation.
Lindsay tried to keep the shock from her face but apparently she didn’t succeed.
“Why are you surprised?” he asked cautiously
“I’ll tell you why I am surprised when you tell me why we went out on a date in the first place.” She told him.
“Forget it. I am not telling you yet. So will you go to dinner with me?”
“When did you want to go?”
“Is that a yes?”
“It is a maybe.”
Nick laughed “Friday night?” he asked
“Okay. I will go.” She replied but already planning a way to cancel the date.
“Good. I better get some sleep. I have an early day tomorrow. Thank you for going with me tonight. I had fun.”
“Me too.” She said although it wasn’t very true.
“See you tomorrow.” He said as he left the house.
Not if I can help it. Lindsay thought to herself. Mercy dates and pity were not her idea of a relationship.
