THE MORE TIME went by the more I became nervous. I wanted to wait for the right moment to ask Nellie but due to my nervousness the question wanted to pop out. I couldn't remove my eyes away from the beauty in front of me and I didn't want to. I love watching her, love watching the way her arms move when she's talking about a topic she's passionate about or the smile that curves on her face when she eats one of her favourite dishes. I love seeing the different emotions on her face some of them may be hard to pick on but during the months together it has become easier.
"You know like the saying goes a picture last longer than staring or something along those lines." I chuckle, "well then do you mind me taking a picture?" She shakes her head, "go ahead." I fish out my phone and take one. "Let me see." I put the phone on her stretched hand.
"Didn't know that you have a hidden talent of photography."
"I have a lot of hidden talents, bellissima."
"And would you like to share with the class?"
"Later on, I like to get hands on in the class." I let the innuendos drip, she should know what to expect tonight. It has been too long and with the way her eyes dilate our feelings are the same on the topic. "Can't wait then." Her voice sounds flirty, she's showing a different side of her that I'm loving.
"Time for me to take a bite out of your dish." I make a slice and put it on her plate, I look at the way her mouth forms on the spoon and the small moan that she makes all of that makes my pants tighten. "That's actually really delicious, I wasn't expecting that."
"I have good taste." She raises a brow at that statement, "I might have to disagree on that, some of your taste is downright questionable." She fakes a shudder, "but we can both agree that my taste in women is good."
"Of course it's good." We don't really talk about our exes but all of that is irrelevant to me, Nellie is mine now so the past doesn't matter to me. "Can you give me another slice in exchange for a bite out of my paella." She pouts her lips, this night won't end well for me if everything that she does turns me on. She really is on her path to kill me.
"Bellissima, you don't have to ask. What's mine is yours." She looks flustered at my statement but that makes my heart swell. My pride becomes bigger every time that I'm able to fluster her. As I look at the left hand that I'm caressing a thought comes at the front of my mind, I'd love to change her bare ring finger but there's a stage that I still have to pass.
We continue to eat and converse with each other, during the conversation I keep on learning new information about Nellie and I'm glad for it. I motion for the waiter to come as we're finished with our food.
I link our hands together as we're leaving the restaurant. The breeze moves one of her braids in front of her, she makes the move to tuck it back but I ask her if I can do it. I tuck the braid back and lay a chaste kiss on her lips. I restraint myself not to kiss her further.
