He walked up to the passenger side and opened up the door for me to get in. Getting in he closed the door and turned to get in on his side.
"Where are we going?" He looked at me and grinned. The way he did it reminded me of Jane. I should not be thinking of him while I am on a date with another man.
"It is a surprise."
"You know how much I love those." Sarcasm was dripping from my words.
"You know sarcasm is the lowest form of wit." I looked at him and smiled. "Why are you smiling?"
"You just remind me of a friend." He returned the smile and the rest of the time was spent in silence. We pulled into a parking spot at some sort of large building.
"What is this?" He looked back and forth between the building and me as if he was trying to think of what to say.
"Well the company I work for has a convention every year and… well I didn't think you would come if I told you."
"What is your job exactly?"
"I am a pharmaceutical rep. I try to persuade doctors to prescribe my companies drugs to there patients." Looking up at him I see how badly he wants me to go with him so I give in.
"Fine, but if this is boring I will leave." His face brightened and he grabbed my hand.
"Shall we?" We walked into the convention. It was filled with doctors and business men. A woman walked up to us and asked Alex what company he was from. Quickly answering the questions the women led us through groups of people talking.
"Here you are Mr…" She looked at him curiously.
"Thompson." He reached out to shake her hand. With that she left and returned to her desk in the lobby. After a few hours people started to leave and the place quieted down.
"Are you ready to go Teresa?"
"Yeah I am getting pretty tired." On the way out to the car he stopped and turned me towards him.
"Did you like our second date?" Brushing a hair out of my face he cupped my cheek in his hand. Moving closer I could feel his warn breath in my hair.
"I have had worse." Smiling he closed the gap between us and our lips met softly. So tender I almost could not feel it. The tempo changed quickly though as I was pushed against his car. Pulling open the door we quickly fell into the darkness of the car.
