“What if I take her to dinner? Nah, that’s too original? Although if it’s somewhere fancy and romantic…it just might work.” Howie opened up the phone book and started to thumb through restaurants he then found the perfect Japanese restaurant in town. He called and made reservations for the next day at 8. Now all he had to do was get Cassandra to join him. He knew this was the easiest task.

-------------------------------------

Cassandra was now working something she has been avoiding for so long, but knew she had to get back to doing was she loved to do-dance.

“Cassandra Willington?”

“Yes”

“A devilry for you from a secret admirer” Cassandra signed the piece of paper and took the vase of white roses from the flower guy. She set then down at her desk she opened the card and read it.

“Meet me at this address 8pm tomorrow”

Cassandra knew who it was. Howie was trying to put the moves on her. Everything that Howie did it seemed to make her feel better. Her cell phone soon rang.

“Hello?”

“Did you get my beautiful flowers? I think I remembered your favorite didn’t I?”

“Hi Howie. Yes I got your amazing flowers and you did perfect. You amaze me how you know all these things. Have you been taking to Marty again?” she flirted over the phone.

“No of course now why would I do a thing like that?”

“Well at least she knew the answer”

“So how about tomorrow? Wear something nice and I promise you, you will have a great time”

“Howie, I always seem to have a good time with you. I felt like I have known you my entire life when in reality I have only known you just for 2 short weeks.”

“Well I am glad you enjoy my company Cassandra. And I am glad you are joining me tomorrow”

“Me too. So I’ll see you tomorrow Howie”

“Okay.” Cassandra hung up the phone and couldn’t help but smile. He was really starting to grow on her. She knew the love that once was for Toby was slowly shifting to the Latino man that she only met just a few short weeks ago. But there was just something she couldn’t help but love about this man. She was falling in love.

_--------------------------------

Howie was pleased with himself to know Cassandra would be joining him the next day for dinner. He knew that it would work. He never dated much but he knew there was just something special about this one. He too was falling in love with this girl.
