Jen's Pov

I walk inside the Bel Air hotel, pretty confident, actually I feel very good, I can't wait to see him. I'm looking for his room, then I knock at the door of a private apartement. Few seconds later, Ben opens the door. He's wearing a black suit, and he's so handsome, omg he keeps getting better and better

"Hi" he smile at me, his eyes scanning my entire body "You look so incredible tonight Jen" I got closer to him. "Well, I have to confess that you look pretty amazing too". He hugs me, tight, then he puts his hand on my waist, bringing me inside.

At this time, the world must have stop for me. There's candle everywhere, red roses on the floor and dinner on the table.

"You did.. you did all that things for me?" I ramble, he looks at me, always with that stupid smile, handing me bouquet of flowers. "oh my god, Ben you really didn't have to" I say, my eyes glittering.

"Just the best for you dear, I told you that I wanted to do the things right" he takes my chair back and I sit. "So, how are your twins?" he says as he brings me a cocktail. "Good, great actually, they had a hard time with my separation but they're good. In fact, they asked me about you" I smile.

"Oh really, spill" as he takes a soda. "They asked me about my worst break-up" "Jen" he cuts me "You know that I regret everyday how it ended, really". At this time I realise how nervous he is. "Hey, hey I know, it wasn't our fault. True feelings but bad timing. I just told them about our incredible story" I smile and take his hand.

We talk and talk, for hours while we eat, about his kids and how much is proud about them, about acting, and his sobriety.

"You know I was scared of two things when I reached out with you" He confess as i listen, still holding his hand. " First of all, scared about what my kids could think, because they're my universe, and they're growing so much. I want them happy with my choice" He says, looking at our hand, slightly squeezing mine. "And scared about my sobriety, I wanted to be hundred percent sober and good and at your level. I didn't want to disappoint you".

I almost tears up. "You don't know how much I am proud of you Ben, about your family and all the things, all your flaws too, I'm scared too, but my world seems clearer with you" I smile, as a tear rolls down his cheek. I delicately remove it with my thumb as we look at each other eyes, forgetting everything, just admirating the person in front of us.

We stay like that few minutes, as we move to the couch. "Movie night?" he asks, with puppies eyes. "Yeah, but you choose and just if you-" "bring ice cream, I know, I remember" I smile as he search for a spoon, bringing me a plaid. We decide to watch He's Just Not That Into You, a movie starring Ben and Bradley Cooper. 

I lay my head on his shoulder, with his arm behind my back. It feels so safe, so good and so right. Just like we never stop seeing each other. He brings me closer to him, still holding me, his hand playing in my hair.

At the end of the movie, I begin to get up as he looks at me almost sad. "You're going home?", "Yeah, I have to take the kids tomorrow because Mark is leaving." "Oh, yeah of course" He nodds. "I had a wonderful time, Jen, really" He says as he walks with me until we are in front of the door. "We really should do it again" I smile as he goes closer to me. "Take my jacket you're going to be cold, and call me when you'll be home" He says, putting the jacket on my shoulders, looking at my eyes.

I lean and kiss him, without thinking as he kisses me back, with a lot of passion, soft but caring. We make out, when i break the kiss trying to breath. "Yeah, we really should do it again and again" I smile as I kiss him an another time. "Bye Ben, it was an amazing night, I missed you" I say as i begin to leave smiling to myself, feeling his eyes on me. "Bye dear, I can't wait to see you again" 

"Nice ass tho" He smirks as I turn around rolling my eyes as i smile and wave my hand "Good night boy" 


Ben's POV

Amazing, she kissed me. I can't believe it. It was amazing, she is amazing. She is the same, but as a grown woman, with her beautiful kids. I decide to call Matt, really I have to talk about all of this to someone and I know that he will be thrilled. But before that, I'm waiting for her text.

After almost 30 minutes, my phone rings, I begin to read the message and I couldn't help but smile.

 Hey you,

I just came home. Thank you for this night, it's been a long time since I had such a good time. I hope we will do it again very soon.
