The next day at work, John was unusually in a good mood. He was excited that he finally met someone. "Hey Dr. Greene!  How's Rachel?" John called to his co-workers, "Carol, I bet those girls of yours are getting so big! Dr. Weaver have you lost
weight?"

"John what is all this?" asked Weaver.

"Nothing! I just thought everyone deserves a compliment! And doughnuts!" John presented a box from behind his back. 

"You met someone didn't you?" asked Dr. Greene as he grabbed a chocolate doughnut from the box. 

"Yes I did. By the way, Dr. Weaver, can I get off work early tonight?" John begged.

"Fine. You deserve it. Now get to work." Weaver said. 

That night John and Samantha dined under candlelight at a fine Italian restaurant. Samantha thought John's brown eyes looked beautiful under the dim light. "John thank you for such a great night." Samantha said as John walked her home. "That was a great restaurant."

"You're welcome. It was either that place or Doc Magoo's by the hospital." John  said with a little chuckle. "I'd love to see you
again."

"Yeah I would too. Do you think we can get away with it?" asked Samantha.

"I think so. But it will be okay. Don't worry about anything." John said as he kissed her good night.
