Took out the bottle of wine, put it in the tin holder, spread some ice in it and placed the wine in it to chill it. It was already chilled from being in the cooler with the ice but this kept it chilled for when he wanted it. Taking out the rest of the items, food, utensils, wine glasses, both set these up on the blanket together.

Never experiencing this ever but just fantasizing and dreaming of a first date like this she was very happy and still a little nervous. She tried to calm her nerves by helping but he spotted her nervousness.

“A little.” She finally admitted.

“It’s ok. Don’t be nervous. I am harmless.”

“I know. This is the first time I have been with a guy in such a long time.” She said not believing that she had just displayed that information.
