Chapter 23 - End of the Lunch Date

As the dinner drew to a close, the inevitable moment arrived for Sabrina to bid farewell to Magnus. Both, reluctant to part ways, were caught in a bittersweet exchange of glances, each silently conveying a desire for the evening to linger a little longer.

Sabrina, reluctant to leave the enchanting atmosphere of Magnus's mansion, felt a sense of longing. The day had been filled with unexpected adventures, laughter, and a growing connection with Magnus. Time had flown by, and she wished she could extend the moments shared in the exclusive confines of the mansion.

On the other hand, Magnus, captivated by Sabrina's presence, was equally reluctant to see her go. He had enjoyed every moment spent with her, relishing the shared laughter, the playful banter, and the subtle chemistry that seemed to blossom between them. The prospect of parting ways left a lingering sense of regret in Magnus's mind.

As they stood at the threshold of parting, the unspoken connection between Sabrina and Magnus became palpable. The mansion, with its opulent surroundings, seemed to echo the shared sentiment of both, reluctant to end the day's escapade. The promise of more encounters hung in the air, creating an undercurrent of anticipation for what the future might hold for Sabrina and Magnus.

As Sabrina expressed her need to return to the dormitory, "I need to go back".

Magnus, ever considerate, readily agreed and offered to accompany her, "I will drop you back".

They made their way to the front door, where a sleek black Mercedes awaited them. Magnus had chosen the car over the motorcycle, anticipating the chilly wind that might have made Sabrina uncomfortable. The thoughtful gesture didn't go unnoticed, and Sabrina felt a warm sense of appreciation for Magnus's consideration.

They entered the luxury car, and Magnus took the driver's seat. The engine purred to life as they embarked on the quiet journey. Surprisingly, the silence between them felt comfortable, devoid of any awkwardness. Magnus focused on the road ahead, and Sabrina gazed out of the window, the gentle hum of the car creating a serene backdrop to their shared contemplation.

In the quiet confines of the car, a peaceful ambiance enveloped them. Unbeknownst to both Magnus and Sabrina, their unspoken connection seemed to transcend words. The journey, marked by tranquility and shared presence, carried them through the night, leaving a trail of unexplored possibilities in the air. As Magnus steered the car towards Sabrina's dormitory, the silence between them spoke volumes, hinting at a connection that went beyond the surface.

As Magnus brought the car to a stop at the entrance of the girl's dormitory, a moment of quiet anticipation hung in the air. Sabrina turned to look at Magnus, and in that moment, she felt the reassuring warmth of his hand enveloping hers. The subtle touch spoke volumes, conveying a sense of connection that had been steadily growing throughout the day.

Breaking the silence, Magnus gently inquired about Sabrina's plans for the following day"What are your plans for tomorrow".

Sabrina, with a soft smile, shared her schedule " A morning lecture followed by an afternoon visit to the library".

Magnus, seizing the opportunity to extend their time together, suggested meeting for lunch and accompanying her to the library" How about having lunch together and I can accompany you to the library". The prospect of another shared moment brought a nod of agreement from Sabrina.

Exiting the car, Magnus moved to Sabrina's side, his hand still intertwined with hers. The simple yet significant gesture echoed the unspoken understanding that had developed between them. The entrance of the dormitory stood witness to a moment charged with the promise of tomorrow, as Magnus and Sabrina faced the night with a shared sense of anticipation and connection.

As the evening air wrapped around them, Sabrina stood outside her dormitory, hand in hand with Magnus. The warmth of their interlocked fingers sent a comforting current through her, creating a connection that spoke volumes in the silence of the night. Magnus, with an eager gaze, suggested continuing to stand outside, holding hands.

However, Magnus had other plans in mind. With a gentlemanly demeanor, he offered to walk Sabrina to her dorm room. Sabrina hesitated momentarily, her thoughts flickering between the desire to spend more time with Magnus and the uncertainty of letting things progress too quickly. Yet, the sincerity in Magnus's eyes convinced her to agree.

Magnus, with a tight grip on Sabrina's hand, didn't let go as they navigated the quiet street leading to her dorm room. The echo of their footsteps resonated with the unspoken connection growing between them. Eventually, they reached the entrance of Sabrina's dorm room and faced each other in the dimly lit street.

Suddenly, Magnus pulled her into a warm embrace, catching Sabrina off guard. The unexpected closeness left her momentarily stunned, unsure of how to react. Breaking the silence, Sabrina questioned, "Don't you think we are moving so fast?" Magnus, with a playful glint in his eyes, responded, "For me, it was too slow." His words carried a sincerity that both surprised and touched Sabrina.

Caught in the moment, Sabrina reciprocated the hug, finding solace in the warmth of Magnus's embrace. Time seemed to pause as they stood there, two individuals entwined in a shared moment that felt both fleeting and eternal. However, breaking the embrace, Sabrina, with a tone of reluctance, mentioned, "Magnus, I have to go."

Reluctantly releasing her, Magnus bid her goodbye, but before Sabrina could take a step toward her dorm room, he surprised her with a gentle peck on the cheek. The unexpected gesture left her rooted on the spot, feeling a mix of emotions. As Magnus walked away, Sabrina whispered her goodbye, watching him disappear down the street.

Alone in the dimly lit hallway, Sabrina found herself reflecting on the whirlwind of emotions that had unfolded. The connection with Magnus, though evolving swiftly, felt genuine and warm. The dormitory corridor, a silent witness to their shared moments, echoed with the resonance of a connection that defied time constraints.

As Sabrina entered her dorm room, the lingering warmth of Magnus's embrace and the tender kiss on her cheek played on a loop in her mind. The night, though silent, held within it the promise of a connection that transcended the boundaries of a single evening.

Sabrina's phone emitted a soft chime, drawing her attention away from the lingering thoughts of the evening. As she unlocked her phone, she discovered a new text message from the mysterious number that had greeted her with a "good morning" earlier. Her curiosity piqued, she eagerly opened the message to reveal the words, "Good night, Sabrina, and I hope you dream of me."
