Romance

Luke led me into the beautiful Victorian building, to a room with a table set for two with about 12 candles as the only source of light. The table was set beautifully with white china with a lovely lily decoration along the delicate rims. As Luke brought me over to the table he never let go of my hand and never took his eyes off of me for the entire time. His caramel golden eyes were so warm and inviting that I couldn't help but stop a sigh as he pulled out my chair to the table and came across to take his seat. We stared at one another for a few minutes, his eyes boring into mine with all the emotion of love and care than I've ever seen, but being me I couldn't handle the silence for long so I began," I sure wasn't expecting this...It's such a lovely surprise!" I said these words with the biggest grin I could manage, to show I really meant it . Luke looked at me lovingly once again and said, "You look absolutely gorgeous tonight!" I blushed a deep crimson at his sudden complement and said, "You should give the credit to your two sisters, they after all did this to me."

Luke smiled sweetly to me and said, "There is no way that Rose or Alice could ever add to such a beauty!" He then began to stroke my cheek and once his cold touch met my hot skin it was like electricity running through my body, the feeling was absolutely amazing. I then brought my hand to cover his on my cheek and closed my eyes absorbing the intoxicating feeling. As I opened my eyes I began to smile and said, "So what's occasion for this... I mean really!"

He smiled again and said, "This is our first official date! Unless you count the packing at your house or when you came over to my house..." I blushed at the memory of both events, Luke then took my hand from across the table and continued, "Do you like it?" I took a slight pause and just as his hand started to fall from my cheek I quickly caught it holding it in place and said, "Yes, yes Luke I love it! It's so beautiful... and romantic! Let me say it wasn't what I expected!" He chuckled got out of his seat came over to my right side and offered me his hand. I gladly took it and then he escorted me to the middle of the room , "I have one more surprise for you!" he said with a childish smirk, I looked at him suspiciously, he then grabbed my waist and propped my hand around his shoulder, he smiled satisfied and said in a loud voice, "Come in!" Just then a whole group of musicians came into the room, three of them were helping rolling it a Piano while the others set up their Drums, Trumpets, Guitars, Saxophones, and Microphones . They all came in so quickly that before I knew it they began to play. The song "Just the Way you Look Tonight," by Frank Sinatra was playing. It was amazing, swaying from side to side to the beautiful music in such a fantastic place with Luke, my Luke; it was just so wonderful that I never wanted it to end. Luke tilted his head down to me and asked, "What are you thinking?"

I smiled shyly at him then replied, "I was just thinking, so this is a date with Luke Cullen. Huh, saying I'm impressed would an understatement!" he laughed lightly, smiling happily he spun me around as we waltzed across the wooden dance floor keeping in time with the music, just as we stopped spinning Luke surprised me again and started singing along with the band,

"Some day, when I'm awfully low,

When the world is cold,

I will feel a glow just thinking of YOU...

And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your SMILE so warm

And your cheeks so soft,

There is nothing for me but to love you,

And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,

Tearing my fear apart...

And that LAUGH that wrinkles your nose,

It touches my foolish HEART.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.

Keep that breathless charm.

Won't you please arrange it ?

'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,

Just the way you look to-night !"

Luke's voice was so much better then Franks, it was smooth, melodic, expressive and beautiful. The sound was beautiful, but nothing close to his joy bringing laughs. Throughout the entire song Luke never kept his eyes off of me, he continued to lead our little waltz, and he continued to serenade me all at the same time! He is either cupid incarnate or an Angel sent for my personal heaven on earth. As the song came to an end we kept on dancing slowly close to one another. I stared at him lovingly, you couldn't help but feel the pure happiness that I was radiating, Luke obviously couldn't he was grinning from ear to ear with the most dazzling smile that I've ever seen, it just about took my breath away. He them drew me in even closer to him put his perfect lips against my ear, his cool sweet breath tickled my ear as he spoke the three most glorious words that I've ever heard, "I love you." I know that he's said these words to be before but there was something in the way he said it that made this time all the more special. As he said these words. I pulled away from him only enough to look into his smoldering topaz eyes, I said, "I Love you too!" His eyes became soft and warm but then a new emotion entered his eyes, it was a spark of passion and with that spark he pulled me closer to him and pressed his cool lips against mine. It was a passionate yet earnest kiss that I gladly deepened, as his lips moved across my own I knew in my heart that I would never want to kiss anything this way ever again, this will always be his, I will always be his even if he no longer wants me, I will always be his Lily.

We continued the kiss until I had to breathe again, I pulled away gently and began sucking in as much oxygen that I possibly could. When I started to breathe regularly again I began to hear my stomach growl, I tried to shut it up but it was too late Luke heard it, "You must be starving! I'm so sorry! You looked so beautiful that I couldn't help but dance with you!" He then took my hand kissed it and escorted me back to the table, this time I didn't argue, I actually was really hungry. As I took my seat Luke snapped his fingers and in a matter of seconds a tall red haired women with dark excited eyes came into the room she was wearing a white buttoned up shirt and a short black skirt she was caring two menus. Once she got to the table she then handed me one and gave Luke the other, then she turned to Luke and asked, "Is there anything else that I can do for you, Mr. Cullen?" I looked astonished at how she addressed him Luke just waved his hand signaling for her to go she bowed and then with a last glance at me she gave a sweet smile and then left. Luke then lifted my chin and said, "Please pick whatever you like!" I smiled and opened up the menu; I didn't want to spend to long looking for choices so I chose the first thing I saw, "I'll get the Mushroom Ravioli, with some ice tea." I then set down the menu and began gazing into my angels eyes smiled and asked, "And what is it that you will be having... Mr. Cullen?" He laughed darkly and said, "Cute, very cute!" I smirked at his reaction. That then raised another question in my head that I decided to address on my extremely romantic date with Luke I said, "You know so much about me...my favorite flowers, favorite music, favorite color, favorite... well everything...and yet..." I trailed off, Luke looked anxious so he urged, "And Yet!"

I sighed and continued, " And yet I know almost nothing about you... other than that you're a Vampire, you love Pride & Prejudice, and that I am Utterly in love with you...I need to know a little more, if you don't mind, something about your past, your family...I have so many questions..."

Luke nodded slowly and said, "I understand, and your right it's unfair of me to keep so much of myself hidden from you. I guess I was thinking that if you did hear about my past that you would leave and never speak to me again-"

I cut him off and said, "If I was the quitting type I would have started running the moment I found out that you were a Vampire."

"But there might be something, something that you may not like something that might be too much for you and you'll leave, if you do I promise that I won't stop you. If you leave I promise that I won't interfere no matter how hard it would be for me."

"Luke! Stop! I'm not leaving not now not ever! "I took his hand squeezed it and continued, "I love you too much." Luke was by my side in what felt like a second and pulled me into another gentle embrace and said, "You always know the right things to say."

I then whispered, "I really mean it you know that right?"

He just hugged me even tighter and whispered, "Yes, I know."

We then held this embrace until the red haired waitress came back to deliver my food and Ice Tea, which reminds me, I never did give her my order...how did she know? I looked at Luke with a confused look, Luke knowing what why I was confused flashed out his silver blue cell phone and said, "I texted her your order. I didn't want us to be disturbed" Right at that moment my traitor stomach made a huge growl. Luke started to laugh and said, "I will answer all of your questions... After you eat your food!" I nodded quickly and began my late dinner.
