"So that dinner thing is still going on?" Anna texted Thomas at 7 sharp in the morning and waited impatiently for his answer. She felt he was up for something, she found it odd that he had the courage to invite her to a dinner with his friends.
"Wow, are you so eager?" Thomas replied and Anna smiled.
"Shut up. Yes or no?"
"Charming. Yes. Wanna help me prepare for it?"
"Oh no, it was your idea."
"Charming again. See you at 7 P. M."
The day passed incredibly slow and she had to try a lot of clothes before she decided to wear a simple black turtleneck and a pair of black pants, she didn't want to wear her typical clothes and make Thomas feel embarrassed. She stopped by a flower shop and bought and arrangement for the table and at 6 P. M. she was already at the door. Thomas answered and he seemed happy to see her."Thought you could use some help arranging the table."
"Yes, you came at the right time." she noticed how he studied her body and felt the need to explain her choices. She passed him the arrangement and pushed him from the door.
"I didn't know what your friends were like. That's all."
"You look great Anna, no matter what you wear. Come,I will show you where everything is."
After Anna made the final arrangements at the table she couldn't help and went to the kitchen. She decided to stay at distance and watch him cook. She found everything about him attractive, his clothes that were simple, but looked incredible hot on him, the way he concentrated and frowned while he was cooking, the way his lips touched the water glass. She even noticed a drop and imagined that in another situation she could taste it, she could hug him, she could kiss him on the counter.
"Close your mouth Miss Candy." he said and almost scared her.
"No, I"
"Yes, you did."
Anna decided to ignore him and asked about the wine glasses. “So I was wondering why are there wine glasses on the table, you know…”“Yes, but my friend Stanley loves red wine so I can’t make him suffer.”
“But you will.”
“I will be ok. It’s time to face my problems. My biggest fear was coming to Aphrodite and I was ok, I had you. Now you are also here and you can help me.”
“You can count on me. About Aphrodite, why did you come in a bar?”
“I guess I wanted to test myself.”
“Oh come on, you didn’t. It’s annoying when you are like this, you never share anything with me, yet I am in your house saving you from a boring dinner.”
“Candy, I" but the doorbell rang and Anna rolled her eyes
"Great".
"I will meet you in the living room."
Anna waited for him there and decided to remove the wine glasses and throw away the wine bottle she found. She knew Thomas was going to be mad but she didn't care. When his guests entered the room she was surprised to discover quite an old couple, she thought that Thomas would have friends around his age.
"Stanley, Barbara, please meet Anna" they greeted and spent some time knowing each other. She found out that Stanley had a publishing house and he was having a lot of internship programs. In the moment when Stanley mentioned her that she could visit his office she glared at Thomas but he pretended busy talking with Barbara. Thomas looked shocked indeed when he was the wine glasses missing from the table and Anna smiled innocently at him.
"So Anna, what are your plans after you graduate?" Barbara asked.
"I don't have any plans." they had a puzzled look on their face. Shortly after another couple joined them and Thomas served the dinner. All of them kept interrogating Anna about her future and Thomas realised it wasn't the best idea. Actually it was the first time he felt that Anna was happy the way she was, in her simple world and always thinking about her brother. He knew that she needed a break and asked her to help bring the dishes back in the kitchen so they could continue with the dessert.
"What are you trying to do Professor?" Anna asked him after she put the dishes on the sink and looked furiously at him.
"I think you've already figured it out."
"No thanks, I don't need another job, I love to work there."
"No you don't, Anna. You only love the money that job provides you."
"So you now call me a gold digger?"
"No, probably it wasn't the right words, you like that you have to work only 2 days a week and it provides enough for you to survive, but you are not the type of girl to work in a bar. You are brilliant, Anna, you can go to any university you want, I am sure they will battle to have you, you can have a job that is so well paid without. "
" Without what? Without wearing a short skirt? Or cleavage? Well good morning Thomas, this is how I want to dress, this is how I want to live. Also don't try to show me how pleasant these stupid dinners are. I might love to read and study but I can't stand it, I am not a housewife, I love to party, I love loud music, I love life, not some formal and boring dinners. Thanks a lot for ruining my evening." Thomas caught Anna's hands and made her look in his eyes.
'Calm down, please. I Don't want to change you, you are a wild one, remember?' he took his hand to lift her chin and cares her cheek. 'You are incredible the way you are, I am just trying to show you that you have a lot of advantages because of your brains, I am trying to show you that you can be appreciated, you deserved to be loved, you deserve all the smiles in this world.' he was talking so slowly, that Anna closed her eyes and let his voice calm her.
'You have no idea how much I want to kiss you or punch you'. She whispered and left of a small giggle.
"Do it. The kiss." Thomas answered. She put her hands on the back of his head and tried to bring his head down. He gave in and approached her lips.
'I don't want to ruin you.'
'You won't' she united her lips with his and Thomas sighed. Anna didn't get any response from him and pushed him.
'How can you be so hypocrite? I deserve everything but not your kisses, does my job repulse you?'
'Anna, I am your teacher, I don't want to make you problems'
'Or yourself... I am leaving, don't worry, there will be no problems.' She turned to leave and when she was about to exit from the kitchen Thomas grabbed her arm and caught her in his embrace.
'You know what... F*** everything. I want you Anna, only you.' and they kissed. It was a kiss from another world for both of them, it was all the frustration, all the games disappeared and it remained only lust, they were both fighting to be in control, to taste more, to memorise every second, every inch of their skin. Anna bit his lip and his desire became more urgent, if he didn't have any guests in the living room he would have her right on the table. He was mesmerised by her, he loved her silky lips, he wanted to feel her touch everywhere. They both stopped to breathe, they kept looking at each other and Thomas wanted to hug her but what Anna did next surprised him. She touched the swelling from his pants.
'Have a nice time trying to calm your buddy. I am out of here' and she run while Thomas was swearing.
