kari: A ray of sunlight tracks a path over my face that warmly awakens me to the coming day.
[2:35 PM] kari: Quickly she raises both arms and stretches, yawning loudly.
[2:35 PM] kari: "That was amazing..."  I whisper mostly to Jasmine, hoping she's awake.
[2:38 PM] jasmine: I stir slightly at the sound of your quiet voice.
[2:39 PM] jasmine: I yawn and open my eyes.
[2:41 PM] jasmine: "Mornin'..."
[2:42 PM] kari: I stretch over to your elegant form and lightly kiss you.  Looking deeply in your eyes
[2:43 PM] kari: renews my vigour and I spring out of bed, sorting out my wrinkled clothing hastily.
[2:44 PM] jasmine: I sit up in mild alarm.
[2:44 PM] jasmine: "Kari? Is something wrong?"
[2:45 PM] kari: "You look well rested, thanks again, Jasmine, for letting me stay the night."  I wink.
[2:45 PM] kari: "It's just that I'd better get started and try to get my car somewhere to get fixed."
[2:46 PM] jasmine: "Oh, right." I mumble, an edge of disappointment in my voice.
[2:48 PM] jasmine: "We'll see each other again, right?"
[2:48 PM] kari: "I thought that you and I could go out on the town together and spend some quality time."
[2:48 PM] kari: I say excitedly and kneel to the edge of the bed, awaiting your reply.
[2:49 PM] jasmine: I mull this over, before nodding.
[2:50 PM] jasmine: "I'd love to." I again treat you to one of my smiles.
[2:50 PM] jasmine: "I'll have to get dressed then."
[2:51 PM] kari: With the satisfaction of knowing I get to spend more time with the beautiful woman I
[2:52 PM] kari: can't help but contain myself and I gently hop on the bed and embrace you.
[2:52 PM] kari: "Oh I'm so glad you said yes!"
[2:53 PM] jasmine: I grin at this enthusiasm from this other pretty female.
[2:56 PM] jasmine: "Uh, Kari?" I need to change into something more suitable."
[2:56 PM] jasmine: "You wouldn't mind waiting, would you?"
[2:57 PM] kari: "Oh no, not at all."  I walk to leave the room and do a quick double take.
[2:58 PM] kari: I look back and smile coyly,  "don't take too long!"
[2:59 PM] jasmine: Standing up, I cross the room to my closet.
[3:01 PM] jasmine: The door stands open, a full length mirror hanging on the inside.
[3:02 PM] jasmine: I strip off my rumpled nightgown, the fabric pooling around my feet.
[3:03 PM] kari: I wait patiently outside the room, extensively observing the various paintings on the wall
[3:04 PM] kari: to otherwise absorb my time until Jasmine finishes dressing up.
[3:04 PM] jasmine: Looking through the clothes on the hangers, I settle on a scarlet blouse and a pair of
[3:04 PM] jasmine: flattering jeans.
[3:05 PM] jasmine: I sit down, pulling on my the jeans and then my blouse.
[3:06 PM] jasmine: Dragging the zipper up, I realize I'm missing one thing. Shoes.
[3:08 PM] jasmine: Sighing, I move back to the closet and quickly pick out a pair of sneakers.
[3:09 PM] jasmine: I grab a pair of socks, putting them on and then the sneakers.
[3:10 PM] kari: I pace outside the room and fish some mints out of my pants pocket, crunching two of them.
[3:10 PM] jasmine: Fully clothed, I almost skip out of my room in excitement.
[3:10 PM] jasmine: "Sorry about the wait."
[3:11 PM] kari: I admire your new look, the last one was definitely more attractive but then again it was
[3:12 PM] kari: just a nightgown,  "You look great, so... Shall we?"  I look towards the front door.
[3:12 PM] jasmine: "Certainly."
[3:12 PM] kari: "Unless you had something else to take care of?"  I wonder, clasping one of your hands.
[3:13 PM] jasmine: "No, I'm ready."
[3:13 PM] jasmine: "Lead the way."
[3:14 PM] kari: I nod contently and stride down the stairs hand in hand with you.  We arrive at the foyer
[3:14 PM] kari: and I notice that the rain has stopped, "Perfect,"  I think to myself.
[3:15 PM] kari: I open the door, releasing your hand and beckoning you first exit.
[3:16 PM] jasmine: Smiling at your impeccable manners, I step out into the early morning sunshine.
[3:21 PM] kari: I walk side-by-side with you down the immaculate path outside the front door to the
[3:21 PM] kari: sidewalk and turn in the direction of the nearby commercial district.
[3:22 PM] kari: "I haven't lived here very long, but how about I treat you to some breakfast?  I know an
[3:22 PM] kari: amazing place not too far away."  I ask calmly.
[3:22 PM] jasmine: "That would be great, Kari."
[3:22 PM] jasmine: As we walk, I take your hand in mine once more.
[3:24 PM] kari: I gladly accept it and I smile with an obvious blush.  My face burns relatively hot in the
[3:24 PM] kari: chill morning air,  "So how long HAVE you lived here, Jasmine?"
[3:25 PM] jasmine: "Oh, not too long. About four months."
[3:26 PM] jasmine: "You don't live around here, do you Kari?"
[3:28 PM] kari: I think for a few seconds, "Well, not anywhere too close.  I was making the trip to pick
[3:29 PM] kari: up some groceries, fortunately, I live alone."  I look back at you lovingly, "But I'd
[3:29 PM] kari: never have expected to run into you and..."  I look down at out intertwined hands, "This."
[3:30 PM] kari: I look down shyly and smile.
[3:32 PM] jasmine: "I didn't either, to be honest. It was a pleasant surprise when you showed up at my door."
[3:32 PM] jasmine: I squeeze your hand gently.
[3:36 PM] kari: We engage in more smalltalk along the way until we reach the diner, its name nearly
[3:36 PM] kari: faded away completely over time.  "I love this place.  After you, Jasmine."
[3:39 PM] jasmine: "Oh, thank you."
[3:40 PM] jasmine: I pull on the door's handle and step inside.
[3:40 PM] jasmine: Slightly chilly air and delicious smells envelop me.
[3:44 PM] kari: We sit down together on a small table.  I try to take in as much of your allure as I can
[3:45 PM] kari: in between bites, almost not believing this could be real.
[3:46 PM] kari: "So, what do you do in your spare time?"  I ask, my hand limpetly touches yours, sending
[3:46 PM] kari: shivers down my arm and giving me slight goosebumps.
[3:48 PM] jasmine: A slight blush creeps into my face as our hands meet.
[3:48 PM] jasmine: "Oh, a bit of this, a bit of that."
[3:49 PM] jasmine: "Nothing terribly interesting, I assure you."
[3:49 PM] jasmine: "What about yourself, Kari? What do you do?"
[3:51 PM] kari: I ponder for a second before iterating, "I'm working most of the time as a paralegal,
[3:51 PM] kari: barely getting any time to myself, like now.  But I couldn't be happier with how I'm
[3:52 PM] kari: spending my days off."  I smile cheerfully.
[3:55 PM] jasmine: "I can't argue with that."
