Chapter XXVIII: A Night To Remember.

I was sceptical at first when she asked me to do so but she kept on insisting so eventually I agreed. We both changed and I took a look out the window and that's where I spotted a fancy car parked and the driver was standing beside it. I assumed he was waiting for someone and that's when Elinor joined me. "Ah, our ride has arrived, are you ready to go?" she asked. I looked at her while raising an eyebrow and replied. "Not until you tell me what's going on." She walked over to me, cupped my face and gave me a small peck on the nose and said. "That is for me to know and you to find out my dear, so shall we?" as she gestured towards the door.

We both left the hotel together that night, when we got inside the car I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable because of the driver. The way he would shoot glaces at us so often, he made me feel as if he could see right through me. I told Elinor about it and she suggested we take the subway back, we had coats with us just in case we get chilly so we can wear them once we get underground. I agreed as long as I get to stay away from that man, something about him threw me off and I couldn't describe it. We soon came to a stop and we stepped out of the car and that's when I noticed we were at a theatre that was showing Romeo and Juliette by Shakespeare live on stage. I laughed at how corny this was of her to take me to watch this classic romance. We had VIP seats so we had a dark isolated booth with a clear view. It was crazy just what money can get you, but for the first time I realised I never really cared about money, I just wanted to be near her.

Once we were seated we were served some champagne as well as some cigars to go with. Older me would have smoked the cigar but this Jennifer declined both. I didn't need alcohol to get drunk since I had Elinor beside me, I could easily get drunk off her scent, there was no need for me to smoke anything, I could get easily high on her. Her love was enticing, it was all I ever needed. We chatted through most of the show talking about what if it was queer, it would have been far more interesting. I admit most of the time I was simply staring at her. Wondering if she noticed me looking at all and what she was thinking about. Sometimes my mind would wander around thinking of all the "what if''s. What if I had never been in that club where I met Earl, would I have ended up with Sebastian? What if I did move on from Elinor when she needed space, would Amy and I have a happily ever after? I do admit I was always attracted to her but she never made me feel the same way Elinor has. I felt a sudden wave of guilt flow through me, I still used her, I used Amy to figure myself out, I never loved her hence why I imagined myself with Elinor while I was with her. That was probably the worst thing I could have done to another besides what I did to Elinor. I am still surprised that she forgave me. That night when we made love, I found out something new. I never thought that one day I'd find my own faith, but it seems that I have. A divine power, something to keep me going and to help me distinguish from what's morally right or wrong. Someone to worship, someone worthy enough for me to get on my knees for, to risk it all, someone like Elinor Baldwin. She is far more than my lover, she is my saint.

As the night went on the show finally came to an end and it was far too late into the night. We put on our coats and left the theatre, it was almost as if we were two drunks running around in the New York streets. We made our way to the nearest subway station. We waited for this train stop to get back to the hotel. As we were just laughing and giggling as if we were children, I pulled Elinor in, wrapping my arms around her waist. She put her hands on my shoulders as we danced the night away. Suddenly, I felt her take control and she claimed my lips with hers, kissing me deeply sending shivers and goosebumps all over my body. When the train finally arrived she pulled away and I couldn't help but smile, I was with the woman of my dreams, all these bad thoughts and this shadow of doubt seemed to disappear when she came along and lit up my mind, clearing all the imperfections and re-sculpting my thoughts.

We finally arrived back at the hotel and we sneaked in as if we were teenagers who ran away for the night. We walked back into our room still laughing and giggling around. As soon as Elinor opened the door, I crashed my lips onto hers and allowed my coat to fall to the ground with a light thud. I pushed her onto the bed and crawled on top of her while whispering in her ears. "Now, it's my turn to make sure you feel me in every way possible." and with that, I claimed her lips with mine once again. My hand tugging on her gown trying desperately to remove it looking for the zipper while she does the same with mine. We were both hungry for one another, eyes filled with lust and desire. My lips travelled down to her thighs, I needed to show her just how wild she is capable of driving me. Her moans, the way she says my name, it's all so divine, I am in love with you Elinor Baldwin.
