Matthew and Destiny were sitting at the Buenos Dias, having their usual Saturday afternoon date night. Ever since Matthew woke up, they both realized they couldn't waste any more time. They loved each other and nothing was going to get in their way.
They ordered their food, and Matthew giggled at the amount Destiny was ordering.
"What?" Des giggled, "I'm starving."
Matthew laughed, "You sure you're gonna be able to finish all that?"
"Eh, I guess so. Whatever I don't eat our daughter will." Des said.
"You mean our son." Matthew said with conviction.
"Are we really going to argue about this, again?" Des complained.
"No, I'm just messin with you. I really don't care if it's a boy or a girl; I just want him or her to be healthy and happy." Matthew explained.
"I think he or she is already happy."
"How do you know?" Matthew asked.
"Because you're awake and we're together." Des said as she reached over and took Matthew's hand.
"And that's all that matters." Matthew replied as he leaned in for a kiss. They both wanted the kiss to last longer, but were sadly interrupted when they heard the waitress clear her throat.
"Here you go guys." the waitress said as she put the food in front of them.
The two ate and talked and enjoyed the rest of their date. Matthew laughed when he saw that Des was right. She had no problem finishing off all her food, plus some of his. When Des noticed Matthew laughing, she threw a french fry at him.
"Jerk." She laughed, "I'm eating for two now, remember."
"I know, but I still think it's funny."
"Oh you do, do you?" Des said with an attitude.
"Yeah, and I also think you're the most beautiful girl here." Matthew said, giving Des that smile that makes her heart melt.
"You still think I'm beautiful?"
"You always were beautiful, and you always will be." Matthew said.
The two shared a kiss, and then Matthew got up to sit next to Destiny. She rested her head on his shoulder as he wrapped his arms around her.
"I love you Matthew."
"I love you too Des." Matthew then had an idea, "Hey Des, what do you say we recreate the night I fell in love with you."
By the look on her face, he could tell they were thinking two entirely different nights.
"Not that night!" Then Matthew explained what he meant. "I'm talking about the night at the cabin. I was still in my wheelchair, and your brother had to carry me in. When the power went out and I went looking for flashlights. I asked my grandpa Asa to give me a sign that things were going to be ok, and then you came in. That was the sign; I knew as long as you were in my life things would be ok."
"Oh Matthew, that's so sweet." Destiny said as she kissed his cheek.
"So what do you say? You wanna go to the cabin tonight?"
"Yes Matthew, I would love to go with you."
Matthew paid for dinner, and then helped Des out to the car.
