I'm not sure where to add this, so I will add it in the other thread.
Melinda's Story Part 1
Melinda was nervous she was a Mother, and she was donating her time for charity. She was listening to the auction, people were donating their time as a date, all proceeds go to the Autism Foundation . She watched lady after lady , and some men go out. She heard large amounts of money being yelled out. She hoped someone would raise their hand for her. She heard her name being called, she was just a Mother, donating her time, for her son. He had Autism, and she was asked to donate her time, for Charity. She didn't have to think twice, she did it, for the Foundation, and for her boy Max. She looked out at the audience, she smiled at the auctioneer.
"Gentlemen this is Melinda, she has a son with Autism, and she is a big supporter of the Autism Foundation . We are going to start the bidding at $500.00 dollars to start."
Melinda smiled but was happy when the first man put up his hand. It was a handsome man, his name was Sam Malone, he was the first, but than a second man yelled out $700.00. It was Gary Ewing he was handsome Melinda couldn't keep her eyes, off either man. She was all smiles when another man yelled out, $900.00, it was Gary's brother JR Ewing.
The auctioneer yelled, "$900.00 going once, going twice".
Sam Malone yelled out, "$1,000.00". The Auctioneer was about to say $1,000.00 , when Gary Ewing yelled out $1.300.00, than JR Ewing yelled $1.500.00, and it went on, going up to $2,000.00 Melinda was overwhelmed having 3 men bidding so high for her.
Sam yelled out $2,500,00 , than Gary said $3,000.00, while JR yelled out, $3500.00. The Auctioneer was looking at Melinda, she was surprised too.
He yelled out," $3,000.00, going once, going Twice".
They heard someone yell out $5,000.00" Melinda smiled, everyone was looking at the man. He was smiling at Melinda, and at that moment, she knew he was someone she would enjoy spending time with. She smiled back as he glared at the other men, wondering if they were going to bid again.
To be Continued
Melinda this story will continue, but I'm giving you the option to tell me who should win the date with Melinda? Is it JR, Gary or Sam, you choose?

Chapter 2
Melinda was looking at the three men, they all were sweet. She knew the three of them were different, she just knew it. She knew who she wanted to win, it was something about him just caught her eye. She smiled, as they continued bidding, all of a sudden he said $6,000.00 , Melinda put her hand to her mouth. Sam looked at Gary, and JR they could see Melinda liked Sam so they gave up. JR hated to give up anything he wanted, but he could see she liked Sam better.
The auctioneer yelled, "$6,000.00 going , going, gone". Melinda walked down the stairs over to Sam. She whispered, "Wow you sure $6,000.00"?
"Yes I'm sure, and it is for a wonderful cause. I have a friend's child who has Autism, and I really did this for them, and all other families that have a child that has Autism"
"Well my Son Max's does, but he is amazing."
"Well his Ma Ma is amazing, so I believe it". Sam smiled, "I better go pay before they come after me". Sam walked over, while Melinda walked over to Gary and JR.
"Hello thank you for the bidding, that was very sweet of you"
"Well Darling, he is lucky I was a gentleman, and let him win". Melinda smiled at JR, He was a character, she kissed his cheek, than kissed Gary's. She talked for a minute, than she walked over to Sam.
"Well we can go out now, or later what would you like to do"?
"Well I have to pick my son up from school, so maybe a later date".
Sam smiled, "How about we pick up your Son, and we can take him to McDonald's, than we can take him to a movie"?
"Really I would think you would want a quiet date"
"No, I would love to spend time with you, and Max's. If you really enjoy our time maybe I will get a second date"
"You are to sweet Sam"
"So are you, lets go get Max's".
She was walking out with Sam as he held her hand talking her to his car. She walked over to the event, she didn't drive much recently because her car wasn't working real great. She got in his passenger side seat, as he shut the door. He ran around, and got in shutting the door.
"Where to"?
"Follow this street, than turn left, than I will tell you where to stop". Sam smiled as Melinda smiled back, they were driving, they both were excited about their date, but she thought he was amazing, wanting to take Max's along. She just hoped Max's liked Sam, he was use to having his Mother to himself. She hoped he didn't get upset because she really wanted this date to be special.

Chapter 3
Melinda got to Max's school, Sam got out walking to the passenger side door, and opening it. She got out, and they walked over to the door where Mac's would come out any moment.
"You know my son has Autism, I hope he is on his best behavior"
"Don't worry Melinda, everything will be fine". She saw the door open, and kids came running out. Max's was always one of the last kids out, he loved to stay back , and be with the Teacher. He came out, and smiled seeing Melinda. He ran over, "Mom".
"Hi Max's, this is Sam, a really good friend of mine"
"Are we going home Mom"?
"Well guess what we are going out with Sam for dinner, and maybe to a park or something would you like that"?
Max pouted, "I want to go home, you said I could watch Back to the Future"?
"Max's please don't be rude , Sam is very nice to take us out for dinner".
"Pizza"?
Sam smiled, "Pizza is fine with me, if your Mom says it is ok". Max's laughed, "She loves Pizza, and wings".
"Ok lets go find a place that has great pizza and wings"
"We like Pizza Hut right Mom"
"Right Max, we always go to Pizza Hut, but if you want somewhere else that would be fine"
"No Pizza hut is fine with me, show me the way".Sam pointed to his car, Max smiled, "Wow that is your car it is cool, it is like a sports car".
Melinda laughed, "Yes it does look like a sports car, lets go for a ride". Max's ran over, Sam let him in first he got in the back seat. Melinda got in the passenger seat, and Sam got in starting the car.
"Sam"
"Yes Max"?
"Put on music really loud, I like that". Melinda smiled, "Oh Max we can't talk than"
"I don't want to talk Mom". Sam put it on, "This ok"?
"Yes, I like Lady Gaga, my Mom likes Cowboy Songs"
"Country"?
"Yeah County".
"I like Country too, but I like anything actually". They were driving to Pizza Hut, Max's was happy listening to his music, and he loved the car. Melinda laughed, "I'm sorry about the music, he is a character isn't he"?
"He is cute, and I love Pizza, you are ok with Pizza right"?
"I love it". They got to Pizza Hut, they all got out going inside. They got a booth, Melinda was shocked Max's wanted to sit beside Sam. They all ordered soft drinks, and they picked the type of pizza they wanted with wings, and garlic bread. Sam was feeling a little bad, he wanted to take Melinda somewhere more expensive. She didn't care she liked spending time with Sam, and Max's, she wasn't the type that needed material things. Oh she loved to be pampered, but she also like to be normal, and have fun. She was especially happy Max's was getting along with Sam. He normally gives her a hard time meeting new people. She was worried at first that he was going to cause a scene, when he wanted to go home, and watch a movie.
"Max's what did you do at school today"? Sam asked
"Boring stuff school is almost over, but I'm going to summer school"
"Cool that is good for you"
"Yeah I guess". Sam smiled at Melinda
"Does he like baseball"?
"Yes, he doesn't play much, he needs someone to teach him how to play"?
"Oh I would love it, if you don't mind"
"You love baseball"?
"I played baseball for a short period, and I was pretty good'
"You played baseball like on TV". Max's asked
"Yes I did, I have some tapes, I can show you someday, if your Mom wouldn't mind"
"Not at all". The three of them were talking, and the food came. They were eating, and laughing, and having a wonderful time. Melinda felt tears come to her eyes, she would love to have a family someone to love her, and be a Father to Max's. She watched Sam and Max's talking, she has never seen Max's as happy as he was this moment. She hated the thought that it might be the last time being with Sam, but she knew this was a once only thing. She just hoped he would ask her out again, because she needed someone in her life, but she could see Max's did too. Sam smiled at Melinda, "You ok"?
"Yeah I'm fine". He reached over taking her hand, as he whispered, "I'm having a wonderful time, he is adorable"
"Yes he is, and so are you". Sam was shocked but he squeezed her hand, he was really happy for the first time in a long time. He hoped this wasn't going to be a one time thing, he would love to get to know both Max's, and Melinda better. He needed someone special in his life, and he hoped Melinda would be that person, because he couldn't believe he was thinking it, but he was falling for her already.

Chapter 4
They were finishing their pizza, and wings. Max's was drinking his chocolate shake. He was smiling from ear to ear, he was loving his time with his Mom, and Sam.
"Would you guys like dessert or would you rather get ice cream, at the park"?
"At the park, can we play ball Mommy"?
"Your soccer ball is at home Max's".
Sam smiled well there is a WalMart just down the street we passed it. We can go there if you like"
'Yeah Walmart, me and my Mom love it there. They have everything, and candy at the front right Mom"
Melinda smiled, "We are going there for a ball Sweetie"
"Yeah but 1 candy right, you always let me have one"
"Ok one". Sam called the waitress over, he paid the bill, and they left. Sam was holding Sam's, and Melinda's hand. He was making them run to the car. Sam smiled at Melinda, as he opened the door, letting Max's in. She whispered, 'You are being very kind to my Son Sam". He couldn't resist he moved close bringing his lips over hers, as they kissed. Sam was looking from the backseat his mouth was open. Melinda touched Sam's chest, "My son is watching us"?
"Oh sorry I couldn't resist"
"Oh don't be sorry that was sweet. She touched his shoulder, as he helped her into the car. Sam was walking around, and got in the car. Max was quiet but suddenly he giggled, "Oh wow you guys kiss like Daphne and Niles, on Frasier. My Mom loves them, and I'm sure she loved that kiss". Melinda was shocked she turned, "Max don't say things like that"
Sam whispered, 'Well he is telling the truth, you did like it didn't you"?
"Yes very much, but I didn't want him to embarrass you"
"I'm not embarrassed". Sam winked at Max's, and they were off to Walmart. Melinda looked at Sam, she has never been with anyone like him before. She has been in love but no one has affected her like Sam. They drove into Walmart, they got out of the car, Max's was walking in between them. Sam reached over holding Melinda's hand, as they went inside. Max's took them to the back where the toys are. He smiled , "Here is the soccer ball".
Sam smiled, "Great but lets get these too.". He grabbed a baseball bat, gloves, and a couple of baseballs. Sam was so excited, he grabbed a couple of baseball hats, giving one to Melinda, and Max. They were walking when Max's saw bubbles, he loved to do bubbles at home. Sam grabbed a few bottles, and they went up to the front. Sam insisted on paying for everything, he grabbed Max some candy too. They went out, they got in the car, and were driving to the park. The music was playing the sound Celebration by Cool and the Gang was playing. Max's was clapping his hands, Melinda was singing to the song, so was Sam. They got to the park, they parked the car, and the three of them got out of the car.
To be continued.

Chapter 5
Max's was so excited he grabbed Sam's hand, and was asking him to play ball with him. Sam asked Melinda if it was ok?
"Sure Sam but be careful". Sam grabbed the ball, baseball gloves, and a bat out of the car. He knelt down putting Max's baseball cap on. It was a Boston Red Sox cap, he handed Melinda's hers, as he put his on.
"Now we are ready, have you done this before Max"?
"Yeah a little". Melinda smiled, "Not really he has tried throwing the ball around, but he has problems." Sam was showing him how to hold the ball, Max's threw it a few times. He got frustrated it didn't go far. Sam was showing him how to throw, and Max's was watching him contently. Sam got Melinda to try, she was actually pretty good. Sam smiled he loved a girl that would be willing to try playing ball. He was sure she would rather be doing something else, but he was really enjoying himself. He always wanted a family it just wasn't in the cards for him. He dreams a lot of having children something else that wasn't in the cards. He wanted to work with children but he never found the time. He really liked Max's and Melinda, and he hated the thought it might just be one day being with them. Max ran over, "Can I try again"?
"Sure can". He got him set up, Max threw the ball to Sam. He did much better both Sam and Melinda clapped making a fuss. Max's was never more proud, he went into his Mom's arms, and got very emotional. Sam was shocked, "Oh did we upset him"?
"No he is happy Sam".
They continued playing for about 1 hour. Sam and Max were fine but Melinda was getting tired. She walked over sitting on a bench watching Max's and Sam. She smiled they were adorable together, and she was surprised Max's took to Sam so quick. He normally takes a long time to bond with someone. Melinda felt tears come to her eyes, she didn't want this moment ever to end. She knew it would, and she would be alone again, and it hurt. She needed someone in her life a adult to talk to. She has been alone so long it was really getting to her. She has been hurt in the past, and she didn't want to give her heart to anyone else but Sam was different. She smiled as Max's and Sam walked over.
"Melinda you ok"?
"Sure, you both are amazing out there"
"Mom Sam is going to play ball with me again"
"Really"? Melinda smiled at Sam
"I hope you don't mind but I would love it. I also would love it if you can come to my bar tomorrow night. Do you think you could get a babysitter for Max's"?
"Sure but you want a second date really"?
"You kidding yes"
"I would like that".
Max laughed, "Mommy likes you Sam, you make her smile"
"I see that Buddy, she makes me happy too"
Melinda smiled as Sam kissed her lightly on the lips. Max's put his hand to his mouth, and giggled making Melinda and Sam laugh too.
