We talked so much the waiter came by again to see if we had finished. Bruce gave him the eye that said firmly go away. He continued to hold my hand and asked if I was free the day after tomorrow. I paused as if I had back to back plans in my head and smiled back a slow casual yes. He smiled back and my heart sped up. It was the first time I had ever felt that way.

So this is what being romantic feels like? I never considered myself a hopeless romantic. I shook my head side to side. "I have seen hopeless so much we are old pals but romance and I were never tight. " He lifted his head back and chuckled. I threw my hand over my face. "Did I just say that out loud?" I asked bashfully. He closed his mouth and said "loud and clear, Selina and I plan to change your perspective." I arched my brow in doubt.

I was too accustom to being alone. I would mumble to myself from time to time. Now I had let the proverbial cat out of the bag. He leaned forward and looked at me with a serious stare. He paused then said " I have never met anyone like you, Selina. I do not want you to slip away. I will show you that there are still a few good men left in this world."

I smiled back but withdrew my hand slowly. I almost believed it.
As if he heard my thoughts or I said it out loud again he said "I will not disappoint you."
That was one thing I wasn't afraid of. I chuckled and he said "Oh. Let me guess you and disappointment are old friends also?"

I laughed heartily and said "How did you guess?" He leaned forward again and looked side to side like it was confidential .I leaned closer. I was as curious the average cat. He raised his brows and put his hands up "It was written all over your bio!"
We laughed and laughed until he motioned for the waiter reluctantly.
