Begining of a Story- All characters and names used in this story are not based on Real Life CF members.
The wind Blows through Fall Leaves huddled on the bottom of the stair case that leads up to a brownstone building. She runs up the staircase shaking as she feels the brisk cold wind. "Fall? ha that's a joke it feels more like winter". She shakes her dark curly smooth hair away from her eyes as she struggles to hold on to two Grocery bags as she takes out her keys from her brown mid waiste leather jacket. "No It's not there?" She reaches into her jeans, "Ahh. There you are." She takes out her keys with her right hand while balancing two grocery bags on her left arm.
She inserts the key and starts to turn when suddenly she feels a hand trying to grab the Grocery Bags. A bit startled she jumps back and takes a quick glance while her defensive thoughts flood her mind. "Okay. get ready to start swinging!" but she's relieved when she see's a familiar face. "Jason! Oh my Go-" She takes a deep breath. "You were about to have a black eye." A young handsome with a small cleanly trimmed lower beard stands next to her. Sporting a black leather jacket, blackshirt, blue jeans pants and black nike nike shocks. He takes the remaingig bag from her hands and says, "Well then you can use your groceries to bring down the swelling Cally. I would be greatful either way." The young man takes the bags off her arms and smiles in satisfaction. Cally seeing a hint of satisfaction in his smiles says, "No you are not coming to dinner Jason." He follows her into the building leaning back and stomping in dissapointment. "oh come on! I really thought you was going to invite me over this time." Cally stops to face Jason with a shocking expression on her face. "Oh Right! What was I thinking? That would be a great idea. You can sit right in between me and Dan while we're on our 5th date staring at him. All too creepy." Silence envelops the hall way as they stare at each other in a stone cold stare. Suddenly a burst of Laughter erupts. Jason says, "Yeah that would be the best date ever. You know you love me Cally don't deny it."
Cally puts her bags on the kitchen counter and starts to take out everything from the bags when suddenly she hears the door bell. She goes to the door and is surprised to see A young man with blond hair combed to the side, glasses and green eyes peering at her as she glances through the peephole. He's wearing a blue, white and green squared button down shirt tucked into his Black corderoy pants and black rain boots. Cally is surprised to see the young man and she opens the door. "Dan? You're here early." He gives cally a kiss on the check then with a smile he takes out a single red rose which seemed a little bit hurt and limp, but beautfully bloomed and a beautiful red. he bows and says, "For the beautiful rose of my heart." "Aww Dan thank you. It's beautiful." Dan walks in the apartment and throws his coat on the sofa. Much to Cally's dissapointment. This was after all Dan's first time in her place. Cally seemed a bit surprised at how comfortable Dan was acting in her apartment. Almost as if they had known each other for a long time. It's only been a month. She closes the door and Dan just made himself very comfortable and laid back on the couch. Dan puts his hands behind his head as he is laying on the coach begins to moan a little. Cally at this point now is curious. "Are you alright?" Dan gets up and say's "Yes I'm just a bit soar. It's unfadenable how men act like such beasts in this world." Using his index finger he pushes up his glases from the bridge of his nose and continues. " Incredible just simply incredible just utterly dispicable. I'm sorry about how the rose looks, but I was at the flower shop and I saw that beautiful rose and I reached out and grabbed it. Suddenly a brute comes out of no where. Grabs me by the shirt and says, "Hey I was here first that rose is mine!" I obvoisly grabbed his hands and shrugged him off. You would think that valentine's day was about showing love. This man was rude and a complete Ogre simply because I grabbed the last rose in the shop. Can you believe it?" Dan continued to ramble on and on. Cally put the rose down on the kitchen counter and continued to put away the remaining groceries while in the back ground Dan's voice just blended in with the quiet of the living room. Cally's mind began to wonder off as she began to wonder about Dan. She started thinking to herself, "He's a sweet guy, but something seems off about him. Couldn't he just have bought me another rose instead since this one was just beat up. Am I thinking about this way to much? I mean after all he did get me a rose. He tried. 5th date and still just a kiss on the cheek. Come on Cally what do you want? He's sweet, kind, educated man. He's a top-tier investment banker and drives a Mercedes. Cally what more do you want? He has everything, but why is this bothering me?" Dan suddenly comes to the kitchen and gives her a questionable look. "Cally? Cally Did you hear a word I just said?" Cally shakes her head. "Dan I'm so sorry I was just putting away the groceries I couldn't hear you. But It's okay I love the rose. Thank you. I'm sorry you went through all that trouble." Dan comes closer to Cally. He takes both hands into his hands then gives her a kiss on the forehead. Cally just couldn't understand it. "Why couldn't he just kiss me alread-" Suddenly she felt a drop of water on her head. She looks up and See's the cieling dripping. "Oh no! not now. I told the super about that last week." The drip begins to come down more and more. Cally runs to the closet and grabs a mop bucket and puts it on the floor to catch the water, but now the drips start to come down faster before she knew it the bucket was full and it was getting worst and worst. As Dan and Cally run around the apartment trying to empty and replace the buckets the problem gets worst. She grabs the phone and starts dialing Jason's number.
