Wake up Call

Just barely the morning after the first date, the sun tried to wake Christian from his deep slumber.

While the sunshine did its best to peep through the blinds and wake him, it was the vibration from his cell phone and the electronic ring that startled him from his coma-like sleep.

He jumped.

He rolled.

He jerked awake.

Christian: W-wha...

Christian flailed around madly in the unfamiliar bed, long limbs getting trapped by blankets and sleeves.

Sluggish, he grabbed the offending phone. Seeing the number on the caller id, his torpid pulse began to race.

Christian: Oh my god...

Clearing his throat from morning thickness, he drew the phone to his ear and tentatively answered.

Christian: Hello? Oh, Kaede... how are...?

Christian: ...Flowers?

Christian: Oh, uhm, great. Glad you got them.

No, nothing's wrong. I'm just a little tired...

No, you didn't wake me...

Oh... cool. I'm glad you're available this Saturday. I'm pretty crap with coming up with plans with this stuff.

::Laughs nervously::

I probably shouldn't have said that.

Anyhow, uhm, what would you like to do? I'm sure we can figure something out that we both like, right? I'm easy.

::Laughs nervously::

I probably shouldn't have said that either.

::Rolling eyes and sighs::
