“She said she enjoyed herself.”
“Good, so why are you here and not with Gabriella?”
I took a long sip from my bottle. “I walked her back to her room…everything was going fine. We were kissing and I suggested we go inside where it was private and she said no.”
“No?”
“No.” I nodded. “I can’t…I mean, I know she was feeling me, but she said no.” He smiled. “What's so funny?”
“You.”
“Me?”
“You really thought she was going to sleep with you?”
“I mean…I thought…I wasn’t proposing sex. I was suggesting privacy.”
He shook his head. “That’s what you want to go with?”
“Yeah. I thought she would have been more comfortable in her room.”
“You have an MBA, right?”
“What does that have to do with this conversation?”
“Hear me out. Gabriella isn’t a dime a dozen chick. She doesn’t need you.”
“I don’t understand.”
She may be attracted to you. Heck, she may even have feelings for you. But her career means more to her than sleeping with some slick, rich dude.”
“Excuse me?”
“Today was a step in the right direction, but you’ve just begun your hik
e to get her heart.”
“You lost me.”
“The women in your past relationships were fine with only the material things and a portion of you. Gabriella, doesn’t care about the things. She wants to know you. If you want her, you have got to share you with her.”
“Crap!” I can’t believe my best friend is laughing at me. “What’s so funny?”
“She’s got your number.”
“What do you mean?”
“Think about it. You said she enjoyed the date."
“Yes.”
“Let me ask, how was the kiss?” I couldn't look at him. I turned my bottle up and finished it. “That good?”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“You didn't have to. It’s all over your face.” He sipped his ginger ale. “She asked how you two were going to handle work and a personal relationship.”
“What did you say?"
