Ronnie opened the door to let in whoever was knocking. “Seriously, flowers? Can you say cheesy?”
Tyler put the flowers in Ronnie’s hands. “This is me saying I’m sorry”
“And it took you seven days to get those words over your lips?” Ronnie asked sarcastic.
“No, I just hoped you’d be more forgiving by now” Tyler answered. “Can I come in?” Ronnie looked around as if she wanted to check if he’d come alone. “How did you find me?”
“Eh, Caroline’s mom is the sheriff of Mystic Falls. It was pretty easy” Tyler confessed.
“Oh, I see” Ronnie sighed. “Well, I suppose you can come in” She stepped aside and Tyler entered the house. “Just walk through the door” Ronnie pointed. Tyler opened the door at the end of the hallway. The room was empty.
“You live here by yourself?” Tyler asked. “No boyfriend?”
“Me kissing you wasn’t obvious enough?” Ronnie asked sarcastic. She put the flowers on the table.
“Yeah, about that, how’s your back?” Tyler asked apologizing.
“It’s healed” Ronnie said. “Tomorrow I go back to work”
“So you have no plans for tonight?” Tyler tried to make sure.
“Nooo” Ronnie asked slowly. “Why?”
Tyler picked one of the flowers and waved it in front of Ronnie. “This is me asking you out on a date”
