Jason had considered calling Lizzie with an excuse to stay away. He sucked at family stuff and he was very talented at faking sick. But Elizabeth had been in his thoughts all day, and as hard as it was to admit, he was hopelessly attracted to her. He almost missed being tethered to her. So, he found himself looking through the few clothes he had for something that could pass for nice. He settled on a short-sleeve light blue shirt and a pair of dark blue pants. Glancing in the mirror he buttoned up the shirt and raked his fingers through his hair.
Earlier in the day, he had gathered some flowers he had found growing in the wild. If there was a florist on the island, he hadn't found it, so he to make due with what he had found, dahlias in different colours, a pink daisy, a purplish flower he didn't know the name of (delphinium) and a sprig of lavender because it smelled like the kind of thing chicks liked. He held the 'bouquet' in one hand and in the other hand, he had some lemon cheesecake squares that the nice lunch lady at the café had helped him to make.
Minutes later, he arrived at Lizzie's apartment and used his foot to 'knock' on the door. "It's me." He called out and as soon as she opened the door, he held out the flowers awkwardly. "For you..and this is for the dinner." He explained, nodding in his head towards the container of squares.
