Immaculate

The Olive Tree

I'm skipping on in days a bit now. I just hope it works as I'm not very good at speed writing. If it jars, let me know, please.

Oh, and the reason why I won't have her call him Dr Sean in this story, is for some reason I have yet to fathom, it creeps me out when I read it in the books. I don't know why, but it makes her seem even younger somehow and him a dirty old man... odd I know, as I rather like the whole Mr Blackbourne/Miss Sorenson thing. But then I guess that's more dominance than creepy. I'm odd and I know it.

Ok, I don't know Charleston, I have no idea on the layout and no idea if there are any Greek restaurants near a park. I've tried to Google it, but got confused. I have never been to a Greek Restaurant either, but I have googled that also. Sorry for any glaring mistakes.

Part Seventy-One

Sang's POV

"So I was thinking, we could head on down Friday night, if you wanted to. It's a lot of fun, Trouble," Gabriel said as he rinsed the last of the conditioner from my hair. "I haven't been for ages, but it's like riding a bike, once you learn you never really forget."

"I've never done it," I said, my voice muffled in the towel I had covering my face as he worked his fingers through, firm and strong. I loved him washing my hair, especially when he worked the conditioner into my head and he made a sort of circling motion over my scalp with his fingers. It was heaven.

"Can I take you there, Trouble? Just you and me?" He wrapped another towel around my head and pulled me upright beside him. I swayed slightly and he caught my hips. I looked at him and saw the tiny bit of insecurity that I sometimes saw deep in Gabriel's eyes. He tried to hide it and most of the time he succeeded, but others times like now, I could see it. It was as if he was expecting me to turn him down, or laugh at his idea. It made my heart hurt for him, so I stepped forwards and kissed him on his shoulder.

"I would love to go roller skating with you, Meanie."

He beamed at me and I caught a glimpse of his piercing behind his teeth. The swelling had gone down and he was talking normally again. Monday had been hard for him, Tuesday he had been better, but Wednesday, today? He was fine.

"OK, so, let's get you presentable for Silas," he said and slapped his hands together.

Silas still wasn't convinced on taking me to a baseball game, despite what Mr Blackbourne had told him. So instead he had asked me if I would go out to a Greek restaurant with him. I was excited and nervous. I had never eaten Greek food and to have a whole evening with Silas was just amazing.

I followed him into Nathan's bedroom and saw that he had already laid out what he wanted me to wear. There was a dark blue bra and panties, with red piping and a tiny red bow on the front of the panties. I picked up the bra and looked at him.

"His favourite colours," he said with a wicked smirk making me blush.

"Meanie, I...." My eyes caught sight of the dress of the bed and I frowned. I didn't have many dresses, and I didn't recognise this one at all.

"Where did this come from?" I asked him holding it up.

"Victor and I picked it up yesterday, we were shopping for something else and saw it. Do you like it?"

I did actually, it was almost like a 1950's tea dress with its fitted bodice, circle skirt and three quarter length sleeves. It was dark blue again, and had red piping down the bodice with a row of tiny red buttons. There four more red buttons on the sleeves, it had a high neck with a collar that was also piped in red. The buttons were mock and I turned it over and discovered the hidden zip.
