Chapter twenty-five: I love you.
Tanith hugged Valkyrie and dashed to her motorbike, jamming her helmet on as she went and shoving her arms through her leather jacket. She jumped onto the bike, started the engine and tore down the road.
Shit, Ghastly is going to kill me! She thought desperately.
She arrived at her apartment block and leapt off the bike, sprinting through the double doors and jabbing the button for lift continuously. The doors finally sprang open and she started to jab the button on the inside too.
She got to her door and started fumbling with her keys, bashing her shoulder against the door to open it faster.
Tanith clicked her message minder and the voice said:
Eight messages have been recorded in your inbox.
"Fuck!" Tanith hissed in frustration, yanking her tight leather pants off, whilst trying to pull off her tunic too.
When she successfully got them off, she ran into her bedroom, not even glancing around her, and almost tore the cuboard doors off. She grabbed a silky red dress and started to put it on. When she was just pulling it over her hips she heard a cough.
"Tanith, you really should look around yourself once in a while." Ghastly said, smiling at her. Tanith was too stunned to talk, Ghastly was in her bedroom, lounging on her bed and wearing a tuxedo, and she was half naked. She finally found her voice.
"I'm so sorry Ghastly! My watch broke and I completely forgot what time it was when-"
"It's fine! Really, I, er, made a mistake myself." Ghastly spoke over her, looking a little guilty.
"Really?" Tanith asked, confused. Then she realised that she was still half naked and bent over with a dress halfway up her body. She took off the dress and grabbed a dressing gown.
"Yes... I forgot to make reservations at the restaurant, I thought they'd let us in. But they were closed." He said, going a slight bit red.
"Well, I guess were even then." Tanith grinned.
"How about a Chinese take-away and a movie?" Ghastly asked, a cheeky grin on his face.
"Sure! Will I order?"
"Way ahead of you." Ghastly said, going red again as he took her hand and led her into the front room.
The coffee table had three scented candles of different sizes, Tanith could smell caremel and roses. She remembered when she had told him that they were her favourite. There were two trays with candles underneath, obviously to keep the food warm, judging by the food on the plates sitting on the trays. There was also a single rose in a delicate glass with water in it.
Tanith smiled her widest and threw her arms around Ghastly's neck, she kissed him passionately and he gripped her waist tightly. They kissed for a few long seconds and then Ghastly dragged Tanith towards the couch. She sat on the couch and pouted.
"Food first, Ms. Low." Ghastly laughed at her pout. He handed her a knife and fork and they started to eat, Ghastly started the movie.
"Ohmygod! I love this film!" Tanith gushed, whilst trying to eat a mouthful of chilli chicken.
"Thought so." Ghastly grinned.
They finished eating about ten minutes into the film, Tanith curled into Ghastly's side and he put his arms around her.
By the end of the film, Tanith was in tears because the film was both romantic and sad. Ghastly was trying not to laugh but he was finding it hard. She slapped his chest when she caught sight of his face struggling to keep it's composure. Ghastly didn't admit this, but that slap actually hurt. He often forgot how strong she actually was, sometimes she acted like a four year old.
Tanith was done crying, so she climbed on top of Ghastly and started to kiss him. Ghastly picked Tanith up in his arms and stood, then kissed her forehead.
"I love you." He whispered, smiling kindly at her.
"I love you too." Tanith replied, hugging Ghastly tightly as he carried her towards her room.
