over in my king size bed and try to recapture the visions from my dream. After about ten minutes with no such luck, I decide I need the real thing. I get up to find my phone and send a text to Ally to see if she wants to hang out today.
     
    Me – Hi! What are you up to? I would like to see you today. Do you want to hang out?
     
    Ally – Sure. Where should I meet you?
     
    Me – I’ll come to you, say in an hour?
     
    Ally – Ok see you soon. ☺
     
    Placing my phone back down on my desk, I go about getting ready.
     

     
    When I pull up to Ally’s house, she is sitting on the front steps waiting for me. She is wearing denim shorts that highlight her long golden legs that seem to go on forever. A white hoodie covers up her gorgeous chocolate locks. However, it’s so baggy on her that it makes her look adorable in an entirely different kind of way than usual.
    Stretched out, she leans back on her hands with her head slightly tilted back admiring the wind chime that hangs above. The breeze carries the musical notes, and she seems enchanted by it.
    She continues to look up as I walk towards her. “I love looking at the chimes as they sway in the wind. It’s so pretty.” The tone of her voice almost harmonizes with the sounds around us.
    “So pretty,” I agree without taking my eyes off her. Sitting up, she catches me staring and fidgets self-consciously with the bottom of her shorts, trying to pull them a little lower down her legs.
    While she adjusts, I take a minute to observe her cozy little cottage style house. The other day when I came to pick her up, I was so eager to see her that I didn’t actually take the time to appreciate how homey it is.
    The steps lead up to a small porch decorated with terracotta pots filled to the brim with lavender. Subtle traces of the scent drift in the air around me, bringing on a relaxed and content feeling.
    A large brass knocker adorns the white front door, and just off to the right of the entryway, sits a wooden bench topped with pale green cushions. Wooden shutters frame multiple windows and the paint on them is a little worse for wear. The place is a little battered but the design is incredible. This is just the type of home I’d love to renovate.
    “So what do you want to do today?” Ally brings me out of my appraisal and I go to sit down beside her. “I was thinking we could hang out here and watch a movie. Maybe one from your famous collection you were telling me about the other day at the mall?”
    Sliding my backpack off my back, I pull it open to show Ally the contents. “I hope it wasn’t too presumptuous of me, but I packed in some popcorn, a few other snacks, and some soda thinking we could make a day of it?”
    She pulls herself up on the rail lining the stairs and turns towards me. “That actually sounds perfect. However, you might regret suggesting it after you see all my DVDs. All I own are romantic comedies.”
    The site of her sexy behind as she makes her way to the door provides a treat for my eyes. “Come on in.” She motions me through to a small living area. The first thing I notice is there is only one two-seater couch in the room, placed in front of the TV. Score, I won’t have to find an excuse to sit close to her . On top of a red and cream Persian rug sits a cherry wood coffee table and I walk over to place the snacks on it.
    Spotting the DVD stack to the right of the TV, I glance over the titles; 10 Things I Hate About You, Pretty Woman, Notting Hill. Jeez, she wasn’t kidding when she said all she owned was romance.
    “What do you want to watch?” I give her the choice since I plan to concentrate on her more than the movie anyway. She pops a copy of 50 First Dates in the player and we sink down on to the couch. The floral design is so ugly it makes my eyes hurt, however it’s actually comfortable, and the mismatched pieces around the room add a lot of character.
    Ally sits close enough that I can smell hints of lavender coming off
