Me:I'm almost ready, come on in.
I send it to him and after a few minutes I hear the elevator doors open. I go downstairs and stop halfway up the stairs. Matt is standing with another bouquet of flowers, staring at me. His gaze makes me blush.
"Too much?" I ask him, swirling on myself.
"You are breathtaking, baby!" he says giving me the roses, kissing me.
"Thanks, but you shouldn't have. You've already sent me flowers."
He takes my hand pulling me into his arms.
"It's a special day, you deserve them, plus we have to celebrate. Shall we go?" he says looking into my eyes and I nod.
We get into his car, and after we buckle up the seat belt he takes my hand and kisses it. Start the engine and takes the highway.
"Where do we go?" I ask him, nervous.
"You let me in, into your world and I would like to introduce you to mine." He says taking the next exit.
I don't ask any more questions and listen to his songs while he strokes my hand.
"Are you all right, baby? You're silent."
"Yes, I'm fine, just a little ... nervous."
"Nervous? Why?" he asks surprised.
"I don't know, I haven't been on a date in a long time." He smiles and kisses my hand as he slows down and enters the tree-lined driveway.
The house is really nice. So picturesque. A mix between modern and baroque. With flowers and trees lined everywhere.
"Oh, it's wonderful here."
"Thanks, I really love it," he says, getting out of the car and then opening the door for me. We go inside the house and the lobby is truly elegant. He takes off my jacket kissing my neck and takes me to the living room.
"This is my house, I thought I'd cook for you, and stay here if that's okay with you."
I smile happily. "No one has ever done it for me." I tell him and he takes me in his arms, lifting me up.
"What to cook for you?" he asks surprised and I nod.
"Then it will be our first time."
Our first time...if you could know...
"Hey," he says, sitting on the peninsula, stroking my face "what are you thinking ?"
I shake my head and kiss him.
"I missed your lips today, you know?" he says giving me little kisses.
"I'll fix it now," I whisper, kissing him again. "Baby, kiss me this way and I no longer answer for my actions."
"Mmm, interesting," I say smiling.
For the first time in a while, I am relaxed and it is a new thing for me, something that I like.
"So ... Angel, tell me a little about yourself?" he says wearing his apron as he starts washing and cutting the vegetables.
