3 Dates With Jaime

I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face. I opened my eyes with the expectation of seeing Jaime next to me but he wasn't. Getting up, I rubbed my eyes and let out a sigh. Once I got cleaned up and dressed, I made my way to the kitchen. On the way down the hallway I heard the sound of sizzling. Knowing it was Jaime I was happy. I got in and he was frying up some bacon. There was already some scrambled eggs and toast in two plates which he dumped the bacon into.


'Morning, Vic!', he enthused. 'I made us breakfast'
'It smells amazing,' I said as I sat down. He sat down in the seat in front of me and handed me a fork. I wasn't too hungry but I tried to eat as much as possible to be polite. I just couldn't eat anymore despite the great taste of the bacon.
'I'm sorry Jaime but I'm just too full,' I said as I put my fork down.
'It's totally alright. Your acting like you did something illegal!' he laughed. Jaime just ate the rest of my food from my plate and I did the dishes. Once everything was clean we went to the living room and sat on the couch.
'I'm so glad I found you', Jaime smiled. 'I really thought that it was a little late for me to find love. I've been hurt too many damn times'
'I would never hurt you'
'I know,' he said as he planted a soft kiss on my cheek.


'Lets go grocery shopping!' I exclaimed suddenly. Jaime's face lit up, he was totally up for the idea. We got into my car and fastened our seat belts.
'Yeah, I know, it's not the best car in the world', I said.
'I dunno, I like it. It feels like it was a hot rod in the past life'
'It feels like it ran me over in the past life,' I chuckled. I began to drive down to Walmart. It took forever to find a good parking spot or at least any parking spot at all come to think of it.

After the troublesome task of trying to find a parking spot, we got out and got into the store. We got a trolley and began to check out the isles. We dumped all sorts of unhealthy trash we could find.
'Ha! Look at this', Jaime laughed pointing at something. 'Baconnaise!'
'OMG! Lets get it!' We shoved it in the trolley and a bunch of other things. We had soda pop, chocolate, popping candy, hard candy, mints, cheetos, doritos, fritos, cheese dip, a cheese wheel, a random radish, microwave popcorn, mentos, salami, tortillas, baconnaise, smarties, glow worms, pretzils, lays, pringles and maltesers.
'I swear Vic, by the end of the day we're gonna have diabetes,' he chuckled as the threw the last item into our trolley.


We got to into the queue at the till. The old woman behind us just had a loaf of bread in her hands and she stared at us like she was in contact with satan himself. When it was our turn to check out our items, the amount was a lot more than I thought it would be.
'Um, do you have any money on you?' I asked Jaime. He shook his head and I had no choice but to pay by credit card. I removed it from my wallet and the lady swiped it. I wrote my PIN code on the credit card reader and we put all our stuff back in the trolley. We made our way out of the store and put all the things in the back of my car.
'Hey, could you put the trolley back', I said to Jaime.
'Oh, I'll put it back alright', he said motioning for me to get inside of the empty trolley. I shook my head.
'No way!'


'C'mon, I bet you'll fit in this baby thing!', he laughed.
'No! Are you crazy?!' I cried but Jaime lifted me up and dumped me into the trolley. He began to push me at lightning speed and it was pretty fun. I had my hands in the air like I was riding a roller coaster. Jaime had lost control of my rapid speed and I suddenly crashed into a woman that was shopping with her husband. She plummeted to the hard gravel and once the trolley stopped moving, I got up and helped her up. Her husband was fuming and I made a million apologies that they did not accept. I quickly got into the car with Jaime and we broke out in laughter. It took us quite a while to calm down.


'I'm glad we didn't get sued or something'
'If they did, you would pay it all,' I said.
'Your right, it's my fault,' he laughed, 'But I don't regret a single thing.'
'That was the best date I've ever been on, Jaime. I had so much fun.'
'Oh really! Me too. I love crashing into stuff,' he cackled.
'Did you hear the way she screamed. ''Aww!!!''. ' I imitated.
'I bet right now she's talking to her husband and saying ''Er mer gerd, babe. Therz gerz hert merz!'','Jaime laughed. I kissed him on the cheek and began to drive back to my house.
'Oooh! I've finally got it. A small boy swallowed some coins and was taken to a hospital. When his grandmother telephoned to ask how he was, a nurse said, ‘ 'No change yet',' he joked.
'Fuck you, Jaime!' I hooted. 'Why are you so damn funny! I love it! I...I love you'
