THE PICNIC STAR
a romantic picnic idea
It's a cool September night and Frank is taking Tina out to eat. Tina, however, has no idea where they are eating because she is wearing a blindfold! Ask as she may, Frank refuses to spoil the surprise. Deciding to give up, Tina tries to strike up normal conversation.
As fifteen minutes go by and after many "are we there yets," Frank finally parks the car. Tina, anxious to see, then asks if she can remove the blindfold. Frank chuckles and tells her to wait just a moment longer. Though eager, Tina agrees. Frank then goes around to open Tina's door and leads her to his select location.
Tina couldn't help but notice she was standing on grass when Frank finally said "OK, open your eyes!" She listened, and removed the blindfold.
There on a soft blanket was set a perfect candle lit picnic setting complete with champagne and scattered rose petals. Tina told Frank how sweet it all was, but with a smile Frank replied "that's not all" as he pointed toward a set up telescope. He tells her to look inside and Tina does just that.
After gazing through the telescope, Tina let out a sigh of confusion as she asked "um... a star?" Frank again chuckled as he replied "not just a star, your star." He then unfolded a piece of paper he pulled from his coat that read Tina Smith. He explained that he purchased the star she was looking at and that he dedicated it to her.
As Tina finally put the pieces together, she smiled at her adorably dorky boyfriend. She then took a seat to enjoy their picnic dinner but couldn't help but giggle as she felt just like a kid all over again.
