Chapter 2: A Nice Date

5 days later

When that special night finally got there, one of the most popular boys in the freshman class went to the Caine house to pick up Christy, and like Horatio's condition on him taking his daughter out, he came into the house and met the family, which he was very polite to everybody before walking out of the house with her.

Once his mother dropped them off at the movie theatre, he paid for the tickets to the movie they were going to see, then after getting some snacks, they went to their movie. After they sat down, they talked a little until the movie started, and when the movie was over, they walked out of the theatre, where they met his mother outside, then she drove them back to Christy's house.

After the vehicle stopped in front of the Caine house, Christy and her date opened their doors, and while she was getting out, she said. "Thank you, Mrs. Stevenson."

"You're welcome, sweetie."

Christy smiled as she got out, then after closing her door, and like the gentleman he's been the whole night, he walked Christy up to her front door.

After they stopped, she looked into the hazel eyes of her date and said. "Thank you, I had a wonderful time tonight."

He smiled and replied. "You're welcome, maybe we can do this again sometime."

"Yeah, I would really like that."

"Cool." He looked a little nervous as he looked out in the yard, then he looked at Christy again and cleared his throat. "I guess I'll see you at school Monday."

"Ok, have a good night."

"You too."

She turned to her door as he turned to walk away, but before he took a step, he turned back around to look at her. "Christy?"

She turned back around and answered. "Yeah, Brian?"

He stepped up to her and gave her a kiss on the cheek, and when he pulled back they were both smiling as their cheeks were turning a little red, he then cleared his throat again before saying. "Goodnight again."

Christy smiled. "You too."

When he turned around he walked away this time while Christy opened the front door and stepped in the house before shutting the door behind her.
She did a sigh of relief when she noticed her parents weren't in the living room, but knew they had been there recently since the TV was still on, then she started walking up to the stairs to her room.

She had been her room the last 10 minutes when there was a knock on the door, and after she sets her sleeping clothes on her bed, she looked at the door and said. "Come in."

The door opened and Calleigh smiled at her daughter from the doorway. "So, how did it go?"

She raised an eyebrow and asked. "Did you tell your mom about your first date?"

Calleigh shook her head and replied. "Good point, I was just making sure everything went ok."

"It did, mom." Christy smiled a little bigger as she continued. "He was a complete gentleman."

Calleigh smiled. "That is very good to hear." She cleared her throat and finished. "So your brother and sister are going to watch a movie with your father and I before bedtime, if you want to come downstairs."

Christy shook her head and replied. "Nah, I think I'll pass tonight."

"Alright."

As Calleigh was stepping back in the hall, Christy speaks again. "Mom?" Calleigh stepped in her doorway again as she continued. "How do you know when he's the 'one'?"

Calleigh thought it would be best to have this discussion in private, so she walked into the room and closed the door before walking up to her daughter's bed and sitting down, then she looked at her daughter. "Well, I knew your father was the one the first moment I looked at him, and it became really clear to me once we started to get to know each other better."

Christy sighed as she looked down. "Oh."

"What's wrong?"

Christy sighed and looked at her mother again. "I don't know if I feel that Brian is the one, I mean we had a good date and we got to know each other a little, I also wouldn't mind doing it again, but nice is all I thought, shouldn't it feel more than just nice?"

Calliegh smiled as she took her daughter's hand. "More often times than not, your 'one' won't be your first date, or first boyfriend for that matter, you are just fourteen years old and you'll have plenty of time to find your 'one.'"

She paused before asking. "But what about Brenda and C.J.? They found each other at fourteen, younger than that if you count when they first saw one another."

Calleigh smiled with a nod. "That is true, and it's very rare, but that doesn't mean it won't be as special or meaningful if you don't find him until you're older, just being with the person you fall in love with should be special enough for you at any age you find them."

She nodded in understanding. "Just like you and dad?"

Calleigh smiled and nodded again. "Exactly, and I know eventually your 'one' will come, maybe when you least expect it, again like it happened to me."

She paused again for a seconds before asking something else. "Ok, but that doesn't mean I have to bypass every opportunity when I don't feel that something special right away, right?"

Calleigh got off the bed, walked to her daughter, cups her cheek and replied while looking into her green eyes. "No you don't, sometimes it does take more than a first look to know if he really is the one for you, so doing one date and done is probably not the best way to go about it, unless you really didn't have a good time and the chemistry wasn't there." Christy nodded as her mother finished. "Now that you are getting older, your emotions will be all over the place on any guy that you meet, it could be really strong or very week, and I don't doubt you'll even feel some type of deep caring or love for some of them, just make sure you use your good sense and judgment, you understand?"

Christy thinks about it, then she nodded and replied with a smile. "That it's ok to give a relationship a try if I want to see if there could be more to it and don't move too far too fast until I'm sure I'm ready for it, which I assure you and dad that it won't happen for a long time."

Calleigh was very proud of her daughter as she replied with a smile of her own. "When did you get to become so smart and grown-up?"

Christy shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know." Then she smirked. "I guess right under your noses."

Calleigh chuckled while she brings her daughter in her arms. "Alright you." As she ran her hand up and down her daughter's back she asked. "So everything, ok?"

"Yeah, thanks for the talk."

After mother and daughter pull back from one another, she cupped her cheek and replied. "You can always come to me or your father, no matter what, and just remember we love you very much."

Christy smiled with another nod. "I do, and I love you guys too."

"Alright, I'll let you enjoy the rest of your night."

After kissing her daughter on her forehead, Calleigh walked toward the bedroom door, then before walking out, they smiled at each other.

When Calleigh had stepped down on the last step of the stairs so she was now in the living room, she walked to the couch, and as she sat down, Horatio turned from the DVD play to look at her. "So, how did it go?"

Calleigh smiled and replied. "Well, all I can tell you is that as of right now, I don't think you have worry about losing your daughter to Brian, but..."

Horatio cuts her off with a sigh before finishing her sentence as he walked to the couch. "But, she's a teenager and feelings could change, and if not to Brian, then to somebody else."

After he sat down, she wrapped an arm around her shoulders, kissed his temple and said. "Sorry, handsome, your little girl is growing up and there is no going back."

He looked at her and smiled a little. "Least I can hold on to Sarah-Elizabeth for a few more years."

While she smiled and cupped his cheek so she could run her thumb up and down it, Sarah-Elizabeth and Josh came down the stairs, and as they were walking toward the couch, Horatio reached out his arms for his youngest and said. "You hear that, Sarah-Elizabeth?"

Horatio picks her up and sets her in his lap as she asked. "What daddy?"

He smiled and replied. "I get to hold on to you for a few more years."

Sarah-Elizabeth's blue eyes were bright as she replied. "Always daddy." Then after kissing his cheek, she turned in his arms so her back was against his chest, and after wrapping an arm around her small waist, he picked up the remote.

Before he pushed the button to start the movie though, another voice came into the living room. "Got room for one more? I changed my mind."

The family on the couch looked to their left and Horatio smiled again. "Always honey."

Christy smiled, and after turning the living room light out, she walked to the couch and took the empty spot on the other side of her father, and after Horatio started the movie, he sets the remote down on his left thigh before placing his free arm around Christy's shoulders and bringing her closer to him.

After she laid her head against his shoulder, he kissed the top of her head before looking at his wife, and they were both beaming before turning their heads toward the TV, their oldest daughter maybe at the dating stage now, but least for a few hours, they can feel like they have their little girl back.
