To Love Again

Chapter 4
Feelings?
Theresa and Fox sat in an awkward silence as they headed back to the apartment. They didn't know what to say to each other after the little incident on the beach. Fox cleared his throat.
"Theresa I'm really sorry for earlier... I mean... I didn't mean to kiss you... I..." "Fox its ok... I um... it was as much as my fault as yours, lets just not think about it." Said Theresa with an uneasy laugh. Fox nodded. 'It's not that easy to forget Theresa.' He thought.
Theresa sighed. 'What had I been thinking when I kissed Fox.' She stole a quick glance at him, he was gripping onto the steering wheel as if life depended on it. "Fox... Are you ok?" Theresa asked.
"What? Oh... Yeah I'm just fine." He said relaxing his grip on the wheel. Fox parked the car and jumped out to open Theresa's door. "Thanks Fox." Theresa said stepping out of the car.
She looked into his eyes as she got out. She gasped as her senses just seemed to rush passed her she went numb as she seemed to fall into their hazel green depth.
"Are you all right Theresa?" Fox asked. Theresa didn't realize that she had been standing there looking into Fox's eyes longer then a minute.
"Oh... Yeah... I'm sorry." Fox gave her an irresistible smile. "Well I guess I better go get ready for our Thanksgiving feast." She said giving him a bright smile although she felt extremely uncomfortable with him.
'What's wrong with me? I shouldn't be feeling this way come on this is Fox were talking about, The guy who has always double checked his appearance before leaving the house, the guy who always flirts just for fun, I shouldn't be feeling so uncomfortable around him.'
Theresa ran to her room trying to think of all the clothes that she had in her closet. 'What am I going to wear, what am I going to wear? Not that it matters but what am I going to wear?' Theresa thought frantically.
After Theresa took a shower and what seemed like ceaseless wardrobe changes she finally found the perfect outfit. A beautiful forest green dress, in length it was a little past her knees but the great thing about it was it clung to her every curve. "This should turn some heads." She said to herself. 'Not that I'd want to turn heads.'
*Knock, knock*
"Theresa are you all right in there?" Fox asked from behind the door. "I'm just fine Fox, I'll be out in a minute." Theresa shouted and then turned her attention back to her reflection in the mirror. She made some finishing touches on her makeup, grabbed her purse and then she turned and left the room.
Fox was leaning against the wall, his arms were casually folded across his chest. When he saw Theresa he straightened his posture but was astounded when he saw how beautiful she looked.
"Theresa.... you look.... exquisite." This time Theresa was the one wearing the bewitching smile. "Why thank you Mr. Crane." Theresa said with a curtsy. Fox laughed and held out his arm for her to take. Fox lead them both to the car where they started on there way to the restaurant.
**********
They made their way to the restaurant making small talk the entire time. When they got there a valet took the car and they both headed into the restaurant. "I have a reservation under Crane." Fox said to the host. "Of course Mr. Crane, right this way." The host lead them to a booth away from the crowded room.
There was a beautiful view from the window near the booth, it looked onto the fountain and small gardens that the restaurant obtained. The table was set with beautifully lit candles, a gorgeous setting and floral arrangements.
"So what do you think Theresa?" Fox asked. Theresa was speechless she hadn't quite expected something quite like this and they had only decided to go to dinner earlier that day. Of course she had been Julian's "wife" and was accustomed to such fine dinning but this was totally different. This was Fox.
"I don't know what to say Fox but that it's beautiful." She said. Theresa sat and slid into the booth Fox right behind her. Theresa picked up the menu and started looking at all the food a place such as this had to offer. 'Wow, I mean wow, Theresa really.... I Mean REALLY looks hott! Wait Fox you have to stop thinking like that your in love with Whitney, I mean I can't be falling in love with Theresa, right? Right? Oh great now I'm talking to myself. Well Fox old boy Theresa is the kind of girl who can drive a man to insanity that's for sure.'
