making plans

"I don't know why we're doing this?" Rosco was still reluctant to sit on every couch in Good Will.

"Because we already said we would." Emily gave him the look. She had the cash. It would get done. They would have a sofa and chair for Gordy's new place.

"I know, I just feel stupid, being here." He shrugged finding him a couch to lay on.

"You're with me, you have to get past stupid." Emily looked across the field of sofas. She'd never seen so many. "I just hate to see Gordy's basement go. There was just so much potential there, you know. I love that basement."

"You did?" Rosco looked at her as if she'd lost it, "It looked kind of boring."

"That's why it would make a fantastic place for us!" It was like an epiphany. Emily supposed. "I want us to live there."

"What?"

"You and me." She was certain of it. "We'll rent it. We'll get married and we'll rent the place."

"We'll rent Gordy's basement?" Rosco squinted. "I don't even have a job. I'm gonna be a senior in high school. We can't get married. Who does things like that?"

"We do." She saw it then. The velvet dark green sofa and chair. She supposed Delia had spotted it already. Emily jumped up then and pointed. "There it is! That's the sofa and chair!" Of course, the cozy black one she'd been making her plans on would be perfect if they got Gordy's basement.
