His Everything, Her Story

Chapter 38

CHAPTER 38

For the next few days I would go to work even when I didn't have to and then head straight to my mom. She was making great progress and she was back to talking now. Her wounds weren't completely healed just yet but she was getting better.

Sometimes me and Trevante would take lily for the day, when things got really hectic. I slowly was starting to feel like myself again with the help of Trevante who was bribing me flowers every Friday night. He kept his word. I had so many flowers in my house that I didn't know what to do with them.  I never knew he was romantic like that, or maybe he was just that way because of me. I had to do something for him.

When I got home he was already there. I had told him to lay off the flowers for a little while before our house became a greenhouse. I had a black bag stuffed with red paper and handed it to him.

" What's this ", Trevante picked up the bag.

" It's a surprise ", I grinned at him.

Trevante looked at the bag only to reach inside of it and see a box with the word Rolex on it.

" Bruh ", Trevante smiled and shook his head trying to contain his excitement. I laughed at his goofy smile as he opened up the watch box. Inside contained a brand new, Gold Rolex.

" Jesus ", Trevante looked at the glittering watch in the light.

" I paid for it with my own money too. So it's a real gift ", I giggled at him as he gawked at the watch.

" This must have costed the amount of a god damn.....CAR ", Tre looked up at me with wide eyes.

" Yeah. You'd know. Rich guy ", I stood up next to him and put the watch on his wrist myself. I liked gold on him.

Trevante held the watch up inspecting it before he picked me up and kissed me.

" I'm guessing you like it ", I laughed with my head on his shoulder.

" I love it ", trevante sat me down on my feet.

" We should go out ", I looked at him and I rested my head in my hand.

" Where to ? ", Trevante sat beside me in the kitchen chair.

" Dinner, anywhere. I don't know. Take our minds off all these tragic events for tonight ", I looked up at him.

" I'd like that. Get dressed. I know exactly the place ", Trevante agreed with me.

I walked to the bedroom and showered before I put on a frilly dress and some high heels. I kept my hair sleek and simple and applied some red lipstick. I grabbed my jacket and waited by the door.

Trevante walked out after me and we headed to his car. It took us 10 minutes to get to the restaurant . I don't know how he got reservations so quickly. We gave the car to valet and headed inside.

" Ahh, Mr.Rhodes. Long time no see. Your tables ready ", the employee walked us over to our table. Our waiter got us drinks. I ordered a martini on the rocks and Tre had a whiskey.

" Ready to order ? ", the waiter walked away after serving us our drinks.

" Give us a few minutes", Trevante dismissed the waiter.

" So you've been here before huh? They know you by name ", I looked up over my menu.

" Yeah, something like that ", Tre rubbed his beard while reading the menu.

" You bring another bitch here or something ? Huh ? ", I gave him a threatening look.

Trevante looked up from his menu and shook his head with a smirk. I sucked my teeth and rolled my eyes.
