Chapter 5

They were outside of Phoebe's apartment building. She didn't want him to sit there waiting for her to get dressed so she asked if he liked to come up there with her. Of course he agreed to.

Apparently, Phoebe wasn't doing too badly. The apartment was just right for her. It was very neat and very cozy, Cole noted. He was walking around browsing her apartment. He stopped to look at some of her photographs as a little girl, which was extremely adorable. Cute as a girl, sexy as a young woman.

He strolled along and caught sight of a picture of her and her sisters. She looked much happier then and much more carefree.

"Phoebe?!" Cole called. "Yeah?" Phoebe answered from her bedroom. "Will you ever go back home?" Cole asked waiting for an answer. "I will after I find my father, maybe," Phoebe answered. "Is he even in New York?" Cole questioned picking up a college application from her table.

It was half filled out. The spot where it says tuition money, it was left blank. Phoebe appeared from her room in a nice pair of black slacks and a long-sleeve, white dress shirt.

"You know, you look perfect in like anything you wear," Cole commented. "Wow, thanks," Phoebe said smiling. "You deserve a lot more than what you give yourself," Cole stated. Phoebe looked at him oddly. He shook his head and said, "Let's go."

In the car, Phoebe found out that Cole's father owns banks. Three actually, and he would soon have to take over at least one. For now, he's working his way up to the boss position.

The bank Phoebe stepped into was huge and very busy. It was called 'Turner Municipality Banks'. Fancy word for city.

Cole put his arms around her and guided her to the elevators. Phoebe looked up at him shyly smiling. They caught an elevator for the two of them.

"The dinner party is at 7 p.m sharp tomorrow evening. So, you could go shopping for a dress today when I'm in my meeting. Here's my credit card and whatever you do. Don't max it out," Cole explained noticing she was holding onto the elevator handle kind of hard. Her knuckles were turning white. "Are you okay?" Cole asked.

"I'm afraid of heights," Phoebe stated smiling nervously. The elevator was made out of glass and you can see out of all three directions. "Well, come here," Cole said holding her closer.

"Umm...Thanks. So, what is it that you want in return?" Phoebe asked. "What what in return?" Cole asked. "There's got to be a catch about all this," Phoebe stated. "Nothing gets past you, does it?" Cole asked. Phoebe stayed quiet staring up at him. "I want you to date me," Cole announced finally.

Phoebe stares at him astonished. "I want to go out with you," Cole stated. Phoebe was still staring at him. She didn't know what to say she never really had a boyfriend before. Sex toys maybe, but not a boyfriend.

"Is that a yes?" Cole asked as the elevator door opened. Phoebe nodded and they stepped out of the elevator. Some employees stepped in exchanging greetings with Cole. He guided her to his office.

On the way, Phoebe saw a lot of whispering. "Cole, why are they looking at me like that?" Phoebe asked. "Don't pay attention to them. They never seen such a beauty," Cole stated opening his office doors. "Welcome to my office!" Cole said as they both stepped in.

It was huge and had basically everything for entertainment. Sony DVD system, Playstation 2 and some new releases on the coffee table. A black leather couch on the side of the room. "This looks bigger than my apartment," Phoebe stated. "Hardly," Cole said. Phoebe went through some of the DVD's and saw one that was questionable.

"Cole? What's this 'Seductive Desires'?" Phoebe asked. Cole turned red in a split second and stumbled, "Um...uh..." "It's okay. All men watch porn," Phoebe stated looking at him. Cole scratched his head and said changing the subject, "My meetings in an hour, and I really got to set up my presentation." Phoebe nodded. "Would you like to help me?" Cole asked. "Sure," Phoebe answered.

They worked for nearly an hour deciding on how the presentation should be displayed to the audience.

"Hey, hmm...You should probably hit the mall or something. You got my credit card. So, I'll walk you out," Cole insisted taking her hand. A warm sensation crept through Phoebe's spine. "I think I forgot something. Oh! Car keys," Cole said handing over the BMW keys. "I could just catch a cab," Phoebe insisted. "A car is more dependable," Cole said.

His office door opened and in popped his dad and his friend Scott. "Son? Are you ready to go?" His father asked. "Just a moment," Cole said turning to Phoebe.

Scott jumped in and introduced himself. "Hi! My name is Scott. I haven't seen you around. Are you new here?" He asked holding her hand without letting go. Cole pushed him aside gently and excused his friend.

"I'll see you when you get back," Cole said. Phoebe nodded accepting his kiss on her cheek. She then excused herself and walked to the elevators.

"Who is that adorable creature?" Scott asked. Cole rolled his eyes and said, "She's not a creature, Scott."

Cole's father jumped in and asked, "Son, where did you find this young lady?" "She'll be at the dinner party tomorrow," Cole stated. "That's great! Your mother and I would get to meet her," His father stated. Cole half-smiled and went into his meeting.

Later that evening, Phoebe surprised him with milkshakes. He was busily scribbling something down on paper.

"Hey, there! I didn't hear you come in. Did you find a dress?" Cole asked. "No, I thought I'd go naked to the party. Much more inexpensive," Phoebe joked but with a serious face on. Cole was looking at her a little puzzled. Phoebe broke into a smile. "You were joking. Sense of humor, I see. What are these?" Cole asked looking at the cups in her hand. "Milkshakes. Strawberry or vanilla?" Phoebe asked. "Strawberry, because I like everything sweet," Cole replied. "Everything?" Phoebe asked. Cole nodded and she giggled.

"You did find a dress through, right?" Cole asked. "Uh-huh," Phoebe answered. "How old are you little bit?" Cole asked. "Twenty. How old are you?" Phoebe asked. "I'm twenty-four. Anyways, you legal for everything except alcohol. Why do you drink?" Cole asked. "Because I like to," Phoebe answered. "You don't like prostitution, do you?" Cole asked. "I don't do it anymore," Phoebe replied aggravated. "Why the third degree?" Phoebe added. "I think you're capable of more," Cole said simply getting back to work.

Phoebe decided she had enough for one day. So, she was going to go home.

"Will you come pick me up tomorrow?" Phoebe asked setting his car keys and credit card on the table. "Sure thing," Cole replied. "Well, good night," Phoebe said. Cole hesitated to call after her.

"Phoebe, wait," Cole managed to say. Phoebe's heart skipped a beat when he called her name. "Yeah?" Phoebe asked turning back around. "You're not working tonight are you?" Cole asked. "How come I'm under the impression that you can't except what I do for a living?" Phoebe asked. "I'm just worried about you. But before you leave, I have something for you," Cole stated.

Phoebe's face lit up when she saw what it was. It was a cute little rabbit Cole pulled out. He had it in its little cage. It was gray with floppy ears. Also very fuzzy.

"This is so adorable!" Phoebe exclaimed taking it out of its cage and playing with it. "I was passing by the pet store and saw this little rabbit in the window. It seemed lonely and it reminds me of you," Cole explained. "A rabbit reminded you of me? I'm impressed," Phoebe said sarcastically. "I find rabbits cute. Don't be fooled by them. Their very quick and clever," Cole stated.

Phoebe smiled at him and said, "Thank you." "I just thought Roger could keep you company when I'm not there," Cole stated. "Roger?" Phoebe asked. "Roger the rabbit," Cole said. "Oh! I see. This is very sweet of you. I never had an animal before," Phoebe said. Cole then began to worry if she can take care of it. It was a $400 dollar rabbit.

"Well, than you again. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye-bye!" Phoebe kissed his cheek and left him with a warm smile. Taking her new pet rabbit home with her.
