Love at First Touch
Chapter 4 - Morning Kisses
Belle wakes up but keeps her eyes closed as she wonders about the visions she recalls that involved her father.
Was I dreaming or did daddy return to me?
He returned to you, my sweet little girl. I told you yesterday would be a happy day and I'm glad I was there to give you a push. I'm always looking out for you. always.
Belle opens her eyes and looks around. With a warm smile, she whispers, "I'm home."
"Rise and shine, pumpkin!"
In comes John holding a tray of breakfast marvels and places it on Belle's lap as she sits up. He bends down and kisses his daughter on the forehead.
"By the way, you left this downstairs when you came in last night," said her dad.
He pulled out a cellular phone out of his pocket and placed it on the tray.
"Shawn." Belle muttered.
She began to glow and John noticed this in an instant. "Awww. does my daughter have a crush on my employee?"
"Shut up, dad!" She yelled as she blushed a bright red.
"Enjoy your breakfast. I'll be back tonight, I have to take care of some business," he explained.
"I love you."
"I love you, too."
John turned around and walked out the door.
Belle looked to her side and picked up a picture on the nightstand. She raised it to her chest and said to herself, "Thanks, mom. I knew you'd bring him back to me."
Oh, you are welcome, darling. I knew this would be the perfect moment for you to be reunited with your father.
Belle gently kissed the picture and placed it back on the nightstand.
She began eating her breakfast and was thinking about how one of the happiest moments of her life was the day before. She finished school and was reunited with her father with the help of an amazing and VERY sweet young man.
Apparently, he also managed to do something that both of them weren't planning on - capture her heart.
Fur-Elise begins playing and Belle is taken by the sound. She is wondering where this beautiful music is coming from. after a few moments, she realizes that it is the cell phone that Shawn gave her. These darn ringtones confuse me!
Nervously, she drops her tray of food off the bed as she picks up the phone to answer.
"Hello?"
"Hi Belle, did I disturb you?" He questions.
"No, not at all. I was just eating breakfast. Now that you are on the phone, I want to thank you again from the bottom of my heart for bringing my daddy and I back together again. I don't know how I'll ever repay you," says Belle.
"You have already repaid me," he explains, "and this is not the last time that I will make you happy."
"Is that so?" giggles Belle.
"That IS so. I'll be there in 15 minutes. Meet me downstairs," Shawn rushes in saying these final words and hangs up so that Belle wouldn't have a moment to decline.
What the..???? Belle thinks to herself.
"Ahhhh, I have to get ready!! I hope some of the clothes here still fit me!" she says aloud.
Belle had been staying at the university dorms throughout her studies and it was quite some time since she had been home.
She looks at the clock.
10:15am.
Belle runs to the bathroom and looks at herself in the mirror. I'm a complete mess!
She manages to quickly brush her teeth, put her hair up, and find an outfit that was in between cute and sexy.
She throws on her shoes and grabs her purse as she runs downstairs to the living room. She looks in the mirror in the room. Perfect.
10:25am.
Five minutes remain. There she stood, like a high school girl waiting to go on her first date, staring at the mirror each second to make sure one strand of hair didn't move before she makes it downstairs to see Shawn.
Ok, ok, no more waiting, I'm ready.
She opens the door and heads down to the bottom of the building.
The elevators open and she steps out. She sees no one in the lobby.
Oh great, already being stood up. Go figure.
She gives up very easily thinking that Shawn wasn't going to come so turns around to head back upstairs.
But to her surprise, there stood her date. They were inches from each other and the body heat was rising between the two.
"Hi there," he smiled and oh, was that smile the most captivating smile she had ever seen!
Belle blushes and says, "Hello. so, where are we headed?"
"I'm going to take you for the ride of your life!" Shawn laughs.
"I don't think that old truck can take me on a wild ride." Belle scoffs.
"That's not what I meant," Shawn says with a sly look on his face.
Belle gasps at his comment as she thinks that he is ALREADY talking dirty to her.
"No dear, not that either." He laughs again. "You'll see."
He takes her hand and walks her to his father's truck. Like a gentleman, he opens the door and shuts it when she steps in. The window was open so he stuck his head in and kissed her on the cheek before stepping to his side of the truck.
While Shawn was walking to the other side, Belle placed her hand where she felt his inviting kiss and smiled.
The ride of my life, huh? I can't wait.
