A Raging Inferno In Phoenix

I quickly retouched my makeup, shook up my blonde curly hair, and changed into the outfit I'd wear for dinner. The outfit was just a plain red dress that pleated out at the hips, with a thin black belt around the waist. I made sure to pair it with my black heels, as well as the black lacey underwear I had. I wanted this night to be special, and so I made sure to pull out all the stops. After I changed, I twirled and posed in front of the full length mirror located in the bedroom; I pondered on whether my facial features more closely resembled that of Amanda Seyfried, or of Jennifer Morrison. When I went back to the kitchen, I once again glanced at the clock. I only had fifteen minutes until Logan would be home. Knowing I had plenty of time, I relaxingly brought the food to the table. I went back into the kitchen and finished decorating the cake in chocolate icing, and topped it with chocolate covered strawberries. Everything was going well, thus far. I then went back to the dinner table, with the white wine and glasses in hand, and sat.

I slowly counted the minutes till Logan would be home by gazing out the dining room window. The view, was as usual, incredible. Our loft had an amazing view of the Phoenix cityscape. This wasn't all that surprising being we lived on the seventh floor of the loft high-rise. In some ways, this was like a favorite past time of mine. I enjoyed looking out at the Phoenix landscape. The desert mountains, the vast sky above, and the immense city below. Being that it was close to seven o'clock, the view looked even more intense. The night was lit up by the lights of street lamps, cars, and buildings. The lights seemed to go on for miles and miles. Even though they were pretty bright, the stars in the sky were still visible, as well as being quite bright themselves. Just then it hit me. I had forgot to get out the candles, put them in the candle holders, and then light them. I rushed back into the kitchen and grabbed the two white elongated candles out of their draw, but not before I grabbed a box of matches to light them with.
