laughed.
“Christmas is coming up.”
“And?”
“Maybe I will get you one as your Christmas gift.”
“Barend! A boyfriend gets his girl a pair of earrings, not a car for Christmas.” She laughed.
“Well, I’ve never been a boyfriend before, so maybe I will mess up. What’s your favorite color?”
“Not funny, Barend, but I like red cars. Goes with the blond,” she tossed her hair over her shoulder seductively.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Yeah, you do that.” Clearly, she didn’t believe he was serious. Mentally, he was already ordering the car for her. She would look sexy in a fire engine red Jag. And, she deserved the best. He couldn’t wait for Christmas…if they were still together then.
As he pulled through the massive, gated entrance to Shay’s Heights, he started getting nervous again. In just a few minutes, they would be at his house. And soon, he would be telling her. He heard her catch her breath as they passed one of the area mansions.
“That’s Dr. Paulson. He created a new way of treating lung cancer.”
“His home is beautiful. But, I can’t even imagine trying to keep a place that big clean!” She exclaimed and he laughed.
“Amelia, I am pretty sure the good doctor has never picked up a dish rag.”
“Oh…staff. I’ve never had anyone do stuff for me. Must be nice.”
Well, if things go my way, you will never have to do anything ever again either, Amelia. He thought it, but he didn’t say it. He wasn’t sure exactly how committed she might be yet, and he didn’t want to come across as clingy. Wow…he was worried about being clingy. Again, something he had never thought he’d experienced. So much changed just in a few weeks because of one woman.
Finally, they arrived at the gated drive to his own home, and he quickly punched a code into the security system before the large iron gates swung open. As he rolled down the driveway, he heard her gasp again. The house had come into sight.
“Oh my god.”
“What’s wrong Amelia?”
“Your house…no that’s not a house. It’s a mansion or maybe a castle.”
“I told you it was large.”
“Well, I know. And I was ready for a big house. But, oh my god.”
“You aren’t judging me are you? You probably think I’m shallow.”
“No, not at all. I’ve never known anyone who could afford something like this.”
“Let’s go inside. I will give you a tour.”
“Ok,” she smiled and then hopped out of the car before he could get the door for her. He couldn’t help but smile too. Often, she looked at things with a childlike innocence.
She reminded him of a young kid looking at the tree on Christmas morning. And, he loved that about her. This beautiful, sexy woman could still look at the world that way. It made her simply amazing. And, it was one of the many reasons he was falling in love with her.
First, he took her on a tour of the mansion, showing her each room and smiling as she bounded around the spaces, taking it all in and gaping at the opulent luxury. It wasn’t that he enjoyed looking rich. He knew that the money part wasn’t specifically that big of a deal to her. Instead, he just enjoyed seeing her smile and laugh. He could watch her all day, but it was time to tell her about a few things.
They were standing in the foyer when he took both of her hands to face her, and took a deep breath. She looked at him quizzically.
“Amelia, there are a couple of things I want to tell you.”
“If you were going to break up with me, why’d you bring me here?”
“What? No. I’m not breaking up with you.”
“Oh, so what’s up?”
“Well, I have told you that you aren’t like anyone I have met before. You are smart, intelligent, beautiful. You are special.”
“You are pretty special yourself.” She smiled.
“Let me finish before I lose my nerve.”
“Ok, ok go on.”
“I know we have only known each other for a few weeks, but you have changed something about me. I never thought
