Marnie was up in her flat, sitting by the vanity. She ran a brush through her smooth, brown hair. It was freshly cleaned and dried after her shower, the scent of strawberries held in. Her hair had a tendency to hold scents.

She was wearing a light blue sundress, the floral pattern popping against the color. It flared just above her knees and was strapless. She had a small white cardigan with her purse to bring along in case it got cool out. She sighed, fighting off a nervous flutter in her stomach. She never really dated, so she wasn't sure how to act around Reagan. They'd already hung out once, though. That was a little more comforting.

Reagan looked at her watch as she pulled up in front of the flower shop. She was a few minutes early.

She parked her car and grabbed the box of chocolates and single red rose from the passenger seat before heading to the door.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

She peeked out the window and recognized Reagan's form walking to her shop. Marnie squeaked and jumped up. She slipped on a pair of flats and grabbed her purse and cardigan, hurrying down to the shop.

[Anime]

Reagan glanced at her watch once more as she approached the door.

She wore a smoke-gray button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up and the top two buttons undone with white slacks and a pair of all-star converses. Her long, coal-black hair was down with one side tucked behind her ear, revealing three small platinum balls along the bottom of her ear and miniature dagger through the top of her ear.

She shuffled the chocolates into her other hand and knocked on the door.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

The door opened only moments later and Marnie smiled shyly at her, "Hi," she greeted, shifting her purse onto her shoulder.

[Anime]

"Hi." Reagan repeated with a smile. "I got you these." She gestured with the chocolates and the rose, nearly forgetting that she'd brought them upon seeing Marnie.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie looked surprised and embarrassed at once, "Oh, wow, you didn't have to do that," she chuckled, taking the chocolates and rose gently, "Thank you."

[Anime]

"I didn't have to...but I wanted to." Reagan smiled. "It's my pleasure." She was glad the gifts were well-received.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie brought the rose to her nose and sniffed lightly, "This is beautiful. Where did you get it?"

[Anime]

"My mother's rose garden." Reagan watched her. "She says it helps her to relax."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Reagan knew just how to get to Marnie's heart. She smiled, holding the rose with gentle fingers, as though it were a precious treasure, "I'll go put this in a vase, to keep it alive."

[Anime]

"Alright." Reagan smiled. She was glad she liked the flower. She'd spent almost an hour finding the perfect one--with her mother's help, of course. She just wanted everything about tonight to be perfect.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie beckoned her inside and hurried to find a case back in the greenhouse. She placed it in a small white case and set it down with a smile, "Alright, I'm ready to go."

[Anime]

"Okay." Reagan followed Marnie out of her flower shop, waiting for her to lock up. She lead her to her car, opening the passenger-side door for her.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie slid in and buckled the seatbelt, a flutter of nervous butterflies in her stomach.

[Anime]

Reagan closed the door and walked around the car. As she pulled away from the shop and headed towards where they would be eating, she realized she hadn't told Marnie that she liked her dress, "You look very pretty tonight."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie blushed and rubbed the back of her neck, "Aww, thanks. You look great too. It's probably no surprise that my dress have flowers on it."

[Anime]

"The fact that it has a floral design just makes it suit you even more perfectly." Reagan said, glancing over at her.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

She smiled and brushed her hair behind her ear, "Thank you..So, where are we going?"

[Anime]

"Towards Pier 17. I made a few arrangements for us." Reagan grinned.
