"What are you doing tonight?" Edward asked as we walked back to the office hand in hand.
We were already running a little late thanks to my impromptu assault but thankfully Jessica was out of the office this afternoon so we could get away with being a little frivolous.
Besides, Edward had informed me that it wasn't against company policy for employees to date. He'd seemed embarrassed to admit that he had looked it up months ago but I found his shyness endearing.
Still, that didn't mean I wanted to flaunt our relationship to the rest of the office and as much as it pained me to do so, a few times I had tried to discretely slip my hand away from Edwards. In response, he would only tighten his grip while shaking his head ruefully.
"Bella?" Edward prompted, reminding me that he had asked a question.
"Sorry," I said, temporarily dazzled. It was amazing the effect this man had on me and ever second I spent with him the deeper I fell.
"Nothing exciting," I answered honestly.
"Would you like to go out for dinner?" Edward asked hopefully.
I nodded, back struggling to contain the ridiculous smile that I had been sporting most of the day.
"Good, I'll pick you up at 7." Edward said, pausing thoughtfully as when we entered the room.
Unfortunately, Mike Newton was already waiting for me at my desk, eyeing the two of us strangely. Before I had a chance to worry Edward was walking me to my desk, unaware or perhaps uncaring of the attention our arrival was gathering.
When we reached my desk I looked at up at Edward, who's expression I couldn't quite understand. Before I had a chance to decipher what he was thinking, his frown was quickly replaced with a wide smirk as he leaned down to kiss my cheek and declared, "See you tonight!"
AN: Eeeek we are getting to the good stuff!
Thank you for all of your lovely reviews. I love reading what you guys think.
I can't believe we are up to 30 chapters! This drabble wasn't meant to last so long but now I cant seem to let these two go. I'm not sure how many more chapters there will be, but I have lots more planned for these two in case anyone was wondering.
Finally, a belated happy thanksgiving to all of my American reader:)
