Thomas walked into the park and looked around. There were a few family having a picnic but only one lonely lady. He could only see her back. He walked over to her and drew in a deep breath.1
"Hi have you lost some sheep lately?" He asked.
She pauses 'It can't be?' She put down her book. "How did you know?" She turned to look at the man.
As she turned he was in shock. "Danielle?"
"Not sure how you found out about my date but go ahead make fun of me. He stood me up and I am now all alone. I am not sure why you torture me all the time but please keep the torture at work only." She said standing up.
"Your really Little Bo Peep?" He asked.
"Yes I am."
"I'm Tommy Tucker, I'm your date. I did not know it was you, I'm sorry." Thomas put his hands in his pocket He was was hurt a little at her attitude towards him. He had always thought they got alone.
Danny was shocked at the look on his face. Like a lost puppy that had been kicked. Her Heart felt a pain. "Sorry, please forgive me please have a seat." She laid her book down.
Thomas shifted from side to side before kneeling down on the blanket. A deep silence seemed to come over them.
After a few minutes he said, "To tell you the truth I wanted to break our date so I could ask you out."
Danny was puzzled, "What?"
"Daniella, I have had a crush on you for the past year. I only excepted the date from little bo peep because of a friend pushed me into it. I just didn't know you were both in the same." Thomas paused then took a deep breath.
"But it seems that... you don't have any plans in dating me. I thought we worked great together and shared a special bond at work. That's why I tried to get more shifts with you. You are the smartest and most knowledgeable person I know."
She did not know what to say to all that then the question that always came to her came out of her mouth, "Then why do you bully me?"
"Bully you? I did not know that was what I was doing. You are the only nurse that I work with that can do the jobs I set up and do them to my standards." He look down at his hands.
"I guess I am not worthy of someone like you. I won't bother you again I promise. " With that he got up to walk away.
Back in highschool he was a bully and as he grew up he had hoped he would be seen in a different light. He got into medicine to help people and give back some of the bad karma that he felt around him.
He never expected that this Karma would him loose a girl he really did like.
She could not say a word just watched him walk away.

Tears fell from her eyes as he placed her hands on her hurting heart.

Hana was curled up on the couch reading the revised script.
Charlie was at the table going over the project budget for everything.
"I think act two will still need some revision it seems a little confusing still." Hana said.
"Hmm" was all he said.
"Hey stud muffin you listening to me?" He yelled out in a playful voice.
When he still did not give an answer she got up and wiggled into his lap and kissed him.
"What was that for beautiful?" He asked with a grin.
"I was talking with you and it seems the only way I can get to pay attention to me is to seduce you." With that she kissed him again.
"Sorry, was just giving the budget one last go through before the meeting with the investors with week. I really want to see this happen." He wrapped his arms around her.
"Know this, no matter what we will see this through. You are the smartest and most handsomest man and I love you." She wrapped her arms around his neck.
He just laughed. "Well what to you say we move this to the bedroom right now." He wiggled his eyebrows at her.
She just giggled as he stood up and carried her into the other room.
