Millie cocks an eyebrow at me. “Oh yeah? Well, I’m not going to stop you from giving it a try.”
“So…” Ooh, this is exciting. I can feel the anticipation flooding me. “Millie Jones, would you perhaps, maybe, like to go on a date with me some time? I promise that’s something we can do in private.”
“I see.” She taps her chin acting all thoughtful. “Well, I don’t know about going out on a date…” My heart starts to sink but she quickly stops it from fully falling. “But how about tonight after I finish work, I walk you home? Turn things around a bit. Plus, I would love to see the inside of a movie star’s house.”
Hmm, I think I might know what she’s saying here. If she wants to see the inside of my house, then maybe that’s because she wants to get to know me better. If that isn’t perfect, then I don’t know what is. I can’t stop smiling. There is a tingle racing through my body as anticipation builds.
“Sounds good to me.” I nod my head hard. “Although it might not be as impressive as you expect.”
“No?” She cocks an eyebrow at me. “So, it isn’t some flashy gold-plated wonder? Well, you are a surprise. Now I’m definitely going to have to see your place. I’m very excited. I’m looking forward to it.”
Oh my God, there is something serious buzzing through the air, something clinging to me and keeping me in place. I haven’t ever had such an intensity surrounding me before, it’s a freaking nightmare.
The chemistry remains. If anything, it grows while she works. It increases with every passing second, almost as if it’s foreplay. There are other people surrounding us, and sometimes we’re forced to interact with them, but me and her remain in this tight bubble and I love it. I don’t care about any of them only the beautiful woman sitting in front of me. The woman who I desperately want to wrap my hands around and hold.
The minutes tick past, albeit much too slowly, but eventually the end of the night comes around. I help Millie pack up and take her hand in mine as we leave the bar and we walk towards my home. There isn’t a scrap of awkwardness surrounding us tonight. We talk happily and with ease, we chat about everything and anything, covering the silliest of topics and laughing as we do. But the laughter isn’t the best part. My favorite moments are the ones where we pause to kiss because we can’t seem to stop doing that now, it’s amazing. Every kiss feels romantic. Under the street lamps, by the bushes, outside the homes of other people… we’re like giggling teenagers who need to touch each other all the time. This is how it’s supposed to be, isn’t it? This is how it should feel. Love, I mean. I really think that this is the start of something incredible and I’m utterly thrilled about it.
“So, this is my place.” I let out a silly giddy laugh as I pull out my keys. “I hope you like it.”
I take her inside, and she coos as if it’s the most amazing house that she has ever seen. I don’t see it that way because I really have seen the homes of movie stars who go all out, but it’s still sweet to see Millie impressed.
“Wow, this is nothing impressive, huh?” She rushes from room to room, not needing an invite to look around. “This is incredible, and oh my God…” She claps her hands to her mouth in shock. “Is that a pool?”
“Oh, right.” A heat floods my cheeks. “Yes, I do have an indoor swimming pool, but that’s my only luxury. I need that because I love swimming and it’s a great way to stay fit. Plus, I always wanted one.”
Millie stares at me in shock and mutters under hear breath something about this home being much too big for just one person. I have to admit that seeing her within my house makes me feel the same way. I wouldn’t mind another person living in this home with me, if it was Millie because she lights the place up. Even more than the swimming pool which I always thought was the best feature in my house until now.
I get so lost in the fantasy of me and her that I barely notice her wandering around the pool, admiring it as if it’s the most amazing thing ever… mostly because I’m staring at her in the same way. Like she’s stunning and wonderful, like she’s the best thing to ever be put on the planet and I’m lucky to even be with her.
At least, I get lost in watching her until there is a giant splash which makes me jump. The water from the pool bursts in to the air, surrounding the body which has just cascaded in to it. I would never expect any woman to do such a rash thing, especially not when we’re supposed to be on our first date. Usually women want to present their best face but not Millie, she is authentically herself always, take it or leave it, which I love.
