A Spy love story

Chapter 27- the perfect day continues, just where does it lead?

Joshua stares at the helicopter like it was an UFO and aliens from the new movie "Home" were inside.
"What?, you've never been on a helicopter ride before?" I say now on the steps leading to the interior of the helicopter, reaching my hand out for him.
"Yes!,He says a bit defensively at first then continues, "ok. No I haven't." He says looking as if he's ego had disappeared suddenly.
"Don't worry, helicopters are fun....," I say locking eyes with him and seeing the sadness in his eyes before continuing, " and I won't think any less of you, I promise."
" ok, if you say so." He says slowly eyeing the helicopter before finally reaching for hand so that I could pull him into the interior of the helicopter.
We sat and he was shaking a bit as the helicopter started to hover to leave the area, so I took his hand in mine and held him close and almost at once he responded quite receiving to my actions and I could tell he needed the comfort.He was sitting at the seat next to the window and I was beside him. As the helicopter was fully off the ground he started to exclaim about the size of everything he could see through the window and how high up we were. Just out of good fun I added to his excitement and happiness with a quick kiss to the cheek and as if the happiness had overwhelmed him he just quickly took me back in his arms so passionately and intimately that I could not imagine of ever feeling so at home, so safe, so blissfully happy and peaceful anywhere else ever before except for right in this position right now. I had didn't want to ever leave the position but we had arrived and I could not be late for my meeting.
MY MEETING!!!!! I had completely forgotten about how important it was, it determined my careerS ( yes emphasis on the S). What if I don't say the right words or what if I don't impress them enough or....
Before I can continue to think of ways I could ruin the wonderful opportunity I was once looking forward to, Joshua stops me by asking "you look worried and deep in thought and not the usual deep in thought; Sarah, are you okay?"
His choice of words remind me when we first met and even pretending to be someone else I was still the same me for I couldn't change around someone I hated to lie to.
"I was being worried about the meeting today but a really good memory made me feel better." I say smiling widely.
"Good, I was starting to think it was me and don't be nervous, you will nail this thing." He says with enthusiasm and while smiling just as widely.
"Of coarse not." I assure him as we walk from the helicopter landing floor with our suitcases packed lightly not very long ago handed to us.
I check my phone and it is now 10:45.
"We need to go to my apartment and drop off my suitcases so that I can get to the meeting on time."
"I will do all of that for you so you can just go to your meeting hassle-free, and I called for a cab to come at 11 right at this spot." When we stop walking I realize where we are and am so overwhelmed by the beautiful sight I had been missing. We were at Central Park with its extended area of green lust land, tall fruit trees and flowers having more colours than the rainbow. It just look so neat, like nothing I had seen before and it certainly amazed me.
"You seemed like someone to like parks and beaches, you know outdoor areas so I thought you'd like Central Park." He says feeling achieved of my reaction.
"And you used to think you didn't know me. This is so amazing."
"Let's sit for the next 10 minutes and see what you are going to approach your meeting and you know just have fun." He suggested coolly as he held his hand in his as he lead me thought the beautiful park that has not ceased to amaze me. We sit down on the nice green grass under a nice big oak tree as Joshua places our suitcases against the trunk of the tree.
Joshua's POV
We did what I had suggested and just relaxed under the shade of the oak tree together as I pull her closer to me. We gaze at the clouds and as she is saying how one cloud looks like an ice cream cone and I say it looks like a hut or a small tent, i hear music playing from her phone I recognize the song as Little Bird by Ed Sheeran.
We could nurse it she said
The lyrics blast through and I see now why she wants to pursue music as a career.
The song appeals strangely to how I feel and where we are especially when the song plays the lyrics.
I'm covered by nature
And I'm safe now
Underneath this oak tree
With you beside me
And the the song continues I kiss her sweetly and softly which I rarely do as the song plays:
But if I kiss you
will your mouth read this truth
Darling how I missed you
Strawberries taste as lips do
It was so strange but I loved every minute of it that was until the cab I called earlier for her arrived for her to leave for her meeting. I am probably more nervous for her than she is but I know she will do way better than great and will blow the record company board members away. I strongly believe in her and at this moment nothing could change that.
Sara's POV
I wave through the lowered window of the taxi I am now in as it slowly drives off away from the park.
"Where to, miss?" An old English and pleasant faced taxi driver sitting in the driver's seat say to me. I had expected there to be the opposite in a New York taxi driver but I was thinking stereotypically.
" I would like to Starlight Records studio on Main Street, thank you."
" oh, planning to become his 7th top client." He says pleasantly and seemingly impressed.
" planning and hoping to" I add.
" wow, I will get to say I knew a client of Bobby Jones." He says excitedly.
"It's such a pleasure just talking to you, and I'm no one too special."
" not yet miss.....?"
" Sara, just call me Sara."
" ok. Sarah, I won't make you late for your big meeting we should be there in a few minutes, I promise."
"That's good to hear." I say just as pleasantly before letting out I breath I didn't even know I was holding out of complete relief.
As the taxi stops and I come out, I pay the nice taxi driver and am faced by I tall skyscraper of New York, fully black with strikes of purple and dark grey. I dazzling sign that reads Starlight Records in big and bold letters was at the top middle of the building and I was once again amazed by another attraction in the wonderful city of NYC.
