"oh please no"
"I knew you would say that but you should know. if you refuse then you're not accepting my apology"
"When your put it like that I like gifts"
"And you're going to love the flowers I brought you. I just hope they're still out there" he says going outside and coming back with a bunch of flowers
"You're the worst. You left these beauties outside?"
"Surprise! Are you surprised? Is all forgiven?"
"How can I not?" he comes and kisses my forehead
"You're the sweetest. I knew ordering this early was going to do wonders for me" I just look at him and smile as I smell the roses
"And what are you wearing. Is that for me? I see you're full of seduction"
"Please stop I'm going to get my robe"
"Please don't. I love my view"
"It's inappropriate."
"You do not know I have seen more from you right? You're practically overdressed" i smack his shoulder going with the flowers in the bedroom but he stops me by putting his hands around me. My back to his chest and his hands tingling on my stomach. I inhale his scent and rest my head on his chest while he takes the flowers from me and puts them on the table. He turns me around as I search for his face and he's Look is intense
"I'm going to kiss you now" is what he says before his lips crash on mine and this time there is nothing slow or smooth about the kiss. He kisses me like he wants to devour me and I open up and let him take his feel as the hold of my waist tightens. His other hand messages through my hair and i feel something hard and strong poking me on the stomach
"While you get that Rob let me prepare dinner" he says to my ear while I'm on another planet. Then he lets me go and takes the bags in the kitchen, i have nothing to say so I just watch him.
I take my time composing myself in the bedroom before I emerge back to find Curtis has made the table in the kitchen and decorated it with flowers and candles
"You didn't cook this star chef"
"I did say I brought dinner. I will cook for you tomorrow night darling I promise. Please come" he takes my hand and helps me in my seat as he takes his
"Is this dinner or a feast?"
"I did not know what my lady would prefer so I brought everything I liked"
I smile back and we have a quiet dinner. He seems to be exhausted and I'm guessing he must have had a long day.it impresses me that he still went through all this just to make me happy. after dinner I strongly Volunteer to clean up and tell him to just wait and go relax in the living room as I clear up the kitchen. When I'm done I find him deeply asleep on the couch, he must have fallen asleep with how exhausted he was. He looks so peaceful and beautiful that I don't think it would be very nice to wake him up. I get a blanket from the bedroom help him out of his shoes, put his feet and legs comfortably and tuck him in the blanket. I turn off the lights and go back to my bedroom. Getting in bed I checked my phone and there is a call from a new foreign number that I ignore and go to sleep.
My phone is ringing and when i rise and its Alice calling me on my phone
"Hello"
"Hey Girl. Don't tell me you're still asleep at this hour"
"What time is it?"
"It's eight and I am exhausted. I just got out of the taxi I am coming up upstairs"
"Upstairs to my place? Like now?"
"Yes. Where else? I feel bad about dinner last night so I thought we could catch up. I haven't seen you all week and I just got off work can you believe it....." she continues talking but i just remembered I have a man sleeping in my couch as i race to the living room. To my astonishment there is no one on the couch but a folded blanket that has a piece of paper on top. I go to pick it up when the doors is knocked and Alice practically walks in
"Your door was open. Did you forget to lock it?"
"I must have forgot"
"What do you have there?" she points at the paper I'm holding
"Nothing. You look awful" I tell her as I give her a hug
"I know. Work is going to kill me I need a bed and some food. Let's go grab breakfast"
"At least you have work. I tell you what"
"What?"
"Why don't you go freshen up in the bathroom and I'll make us breakfast"
"Thank you. Thank you. I hope my clothes are still there"
"I didn't disposal of them, so they must be"
"You...….." she says going to the bedroom which gives me time to read the paper
You looked peaceful I didn't want to wake you. Had to leave early. I promise to be on time to make dinner tonight
Curtis
I smile as I fold the paper and put it in my robe heading to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. I wish he would have woken me up to say goodbye but at least he left note so I'm not complaining. We have breakfast then Alice goes to bed while I clean up. We grab lunch later and talk before we part and for some reason I don't tell her about Curtis. I don't think there's really something to tell but Alice has been my best friend since high school and I tell her nearly everything even when they do not make sense.
