[ WP ] You pray to God , wishing that you will get a boyfriend/girlfriend before you die . He gives you immortality .

I went to church the first time last week. 
 
 My grandma had tugged my arm and dragged me into her car with a promise of a `` restaurant breakfast,'' and before I knew it, in my morning grogginess I was greeted with pews and angry hushes. I had shot her an angry look, at which she swatted my hand. 
 
 I never liked church. I never prayed. But maybe it was the environment, no, who am I kidding, it was my Grandma's powerful presence, or maybe the fact that I accidentally spilled coffee into my crush's locker, another no-go to join the other past 30 crushes, that made me bow down. And then, I wished something that i would regret. `` God, before I die could I just have one girlfriend? One?'' 
 
 `` And that's when you stopped being able to die?'' Dr. Martinez said flatly, shooting me an incredulous look. 
 
 I look up at her from my hospital cot. `` Well I've shot myself, I've electricuted myself, I've hanged myself, I gave myself carbon monoxide poisoning, and I overdosed.'' 
 
 `` I see, so you have been trying for a while.'' 
 
 `` Well I did those in my garage last Tuesday night actually.'' 
 
 `` Ah.'' 
 
 She's not bad. Long blond hair with grey eyes that flashed in the light. Assertive too. 
 
 `` So how do you want me to help you?'' 
 
 `` Go on a date with me?'' 
 
 `` Is that your approach?'' she said, her expression unchanged. 
 
 `` Uh - I think you're pretty?'' 
 
 `` That's it?'' 
 
 `` I happen to make good omlettes, so I'd probably be a good quality -'' 
 
 `` I think I'm going to stop you there.'' 
 
 I frowned. `` Ok.'' 
 
 `` Maybe you need to meet someone at your level. Because obviously you do n't know what you are doing with that approach.'' 
 
 She sat straighter in her chair. 
 
 `` I have another patient with the same `` relationship'' issue, and while she's been learning techniques to improve her relationships, she is still needing someone to interact with. Perhaps you two could go practice, and go on some dates?'' 
 
 `` Is she pretty?'' 
 
 `` And, we'll stop there.''
