Desiree's POV
When I tried on my beautiful yellow summer dress, I couldn't stop smiling in front of the mirror; it's the perfect complement to my porcelain skin, and I adore it. I turned around and looked in the mirror again, and all I could see was that I looked so good tonight. Alexander had just made a reservation at a restaurant near the coastline, and even though it isn't a date, I am quite excited.
I heard a knock on my door, "Come in." I said.
"Are you ready to go now? I'm starving."
I glance at him, "Yeah…"
"I'm starving for a kiss," he murmured as he grabbed both of my wrists and gave me a quick kiss. My heart was very delighted with that kiss, even though it wasn't passionate.
"So are you ready?" he asks and he gives me a sweet smile.
Gosh, he makes my heart flutter and happy with his simple gesture.
I hope he can feel that too.
"I think I'm ready to go now." I exhaled and inhaled his perfume. Damn, he smells so good.
He is not really mad at me now, it was a sudden change of his attitude when I call him for a dinner and take him here.
He opens the door in his car for me like a pure gentleman, what he wants for me tonight and why he is acting like a good boy now. Maybe he wants something.
Or maybe he is just in a good mood to treat me this way after what happened earlier.
"Desiree…"
"Yes?"
"I want you to throw the gift."
I glance at him with a confused face, "what gift?" then I remembered the red lingerie. Gosh, is that what's on his mind all the time? That's why he is acting this way to make me say yes and throw the gift.
"Oh okay, no problem with that." I said as I smile at him and touch his hand, "I will throw it to make you feel better." I added.
"Good, because I don't like to see it, if you like lingerie and expensive underwear, I can buy it for you but I don't want to accept that any guy giving it to you, I can afford it."
I bit my lower lip because he sounds so possessive and territorial.
I suddenly laughed because of his tactics. He sounds so weird and I am confused now.
But I only pretend that I will throw the gift that George give me but I will not be going to throw it, I will just keep it because George doesn't do anything bad to me to make do that.
I fold my arms and I crossed my legs while listening to the music on the radio inside his car, while he is driving with a serious face.
I want to ease and lessen the worries tonight, so I switch to another song, slow rock song is better. I vibe with the song while singing and he is listening to me. He smiled and later on he sing along with me.
We are singing and vibing inside his car, I saw his happy face and being the real person.
He is such a good guy, but sometimes when he is mad, I don't know him anymore but now he looks so genuine like a normal person would do.
"I think I'm hungry now, I already told the restaurant to cook the food already before we arrived, so that when we arrived we can eat directly." he laugh at his brilliant idea.
I smile at him widely. "Wow, what did you order?"
"I choose the food, so I hope you will like it." He said and wink at me, he pulled over to the parking lot and he take my hand to his lips, giving me special and small kisses on my knuckles.
"I want you to be happy tonight, no stress…just happy."
"Alright, you make me feel so happy now." I said and he get out of his car and open the door for me, "Let's go?"
"Yeah, sure…"
His eyes landed on my cleavage and I saw him gulp for a moment when he cupped my breast for a second.
"What are you doing?"
"Touching what's mine." I frowned at him and I move his hand away from my breast, 2Can you just behave like a human inside the restaurant?"
I said and he put his hand on my waist while we are heading inside the restaurant, some people are looking at us like we are the best couple have entered this restaurant.
"Good evening, Miss McCall and Mister Roberts, This way please." the host said and guide them the way to their reserve table.
"Thank you," I said to the waitress when she give me a table napkin on my lap and she smiles at me, My eyes twinkle as I see the food on the table.
This is so good and tasty.
Plates of seafood are so delicious and I am craving this food tonight.
"So you like it?"
"I love the table settings, the ambiance, the people here. They are so kind and stress-free. I like also the place that you choose outdoor, nice view there." I said as I pointed to the sea with some people having a night swimming.
"Yeah, but it's too cold for you to swim…" he said. He start to take his fork now and tasted the food and I sighed, I am drooling now.
"So do you want crabs?" I ask him because I am about to eat the crabs and he shakes his head, "No, it's really for you…I have an allergy to crabs." he said.
"Oh sorry, I did not know that, well…at least I know already."
"Yeah, so you better eat it." He said, his voice is calm.
"Yeah thank you for making me happy tonight, this is a nice dinner-"
"Dinner date." he corrected me.
"Yeah, A date."
I gulped and I stare at his eyes, then he laugh at me.
"No, I am just kidding."
