"Want to go out tonight," Joey asked. "YES, I mean sure, if you want to," Zoey replied. Joey smiled and said, "Alright, see you at 7."

Zoey couldn't believe it. Joey actually asked her out. Her brain was going 1000 miles a minute. What was she going to wear? Should she kiss him? Omg, she had to call her bff. Steph would help her calm down and, bonus, she'd be able to answer those questions running through Zoey's mind. "I've got to call Steph now," said to no one. Or so she thought.

Steph comes busting through Zoey's door, almost as excited as Zoey was. She couldn't believe that Joey had finally asked Zoey out. It was about time. They had been flirting with each other for months. It was enough to make a person sick, ok maybe not sick but at least queasy.

"What was that," Steph asked.

Zoey looked at Steph like she was crazy and said, "what was what?"

"That noise, it was a thump, thump, bump noise. It sounded like it came from under your bed."

It was probably my heart. It's beating so fast I think it's going to jump out of my chest.

I guess. Ok, let's get your makeup on.

As Steph was doing Zoey's makeup, all he could think about was getting her alone, finally. It was all he dreamed about. Zoey alone, with him. Just the two of them. He loved to watch her. Loved to hear her snore while she slept. It was the cutest thing he'd ever heard. He knew tonight had to be the night. Tonight she was going to be his. Zoey just didn't know it yet. Look at her all excited, too bad that date wasn't going to happen.

Steph yells bye as she closes the door. She smiles to herself and thinks about how pretty Zoey looks. All that time spent watching videos on makeup how to's paid off. She's hoping and wishing that things go the way Zoey wants tonight. After all she's been through, with that stalker, she deserves to be happy. Thankfully, they finally caught the guy and he's in prison for a very long time. Who would have thought a complete stranger, was stalking her bff. Steph thinks how lucky Zoey was that the cops caught that guy standing in front of her apartment window. It was pure luck that they saw him and caught him.

Joey walks up the stairs and knocks on the door. He has a huge smile across his face. He keeps thinking how lucky it was that a random guy was standing on the sidewalk that night. Everyone thinks he's the stalker. Now, some stranger is in prison and he gets her all to himself. She's his now.

Zoey answers the door, smiling so big, and about to bounce out of her skin she's so excited. "Hey, you ready to go?", Zoey asks.

Joey responds, "I've been waiting a long time for this night."
