Only You

Me and You

Ava and Connor had been working together for around a year now, they were best friends, practically inseparable, you couldn't see one without the other. Either she was glued to his hip, or he was glued to hers. Over the course of this year, they'd both developed feelings for each other, but hadn't had the confidence to express those feelings. Ava was waiting outside for the valet to bring her car around, she was standing, shaking, freezing cold.. until she felt a pair of warm and inviting arms wrap around her from behind, startled at first she stiffened up, and tried to pull away. "Relax, just me.." It was Connor, she relaxed and welcomed the hug. The valet walked over with her keys, a puzzled look on her face.

"Sorry Dr Bekker, she wouldn't start.." He handed her the keys and went to get Connor's car.

"What am I going to do??" She asked in a panicked voice.

"I'll tell you what, you're going to do, you're going to come home with me." He wrapped his arm around her waist and led her to the car the valet pulled around. It was a solid black Porsche.

They arrived at his apartment about half an hour later, he took her in and shower her around. Then he started dinner. She just sat on the couch watching him, and how handsome and perfect he was.. He brought two plates of pasta into the living room and sat one one each end of the coffee table in front of the couch, then poured them each a glass of wine.

"This looks delicious Connor!" She grabbed her plate and moved closer to him, he chuckled and sat down.

"Try some! Hope you like it." He said, and started eating his.

She picked some up with her fork and popped it into her mouth. "Wow! This is incredible!" She said with amazement. "You're like the whole package, you're handsome, a heart surgeon, and you're a great cook!" The sentence caught Connor off guard.

"You think I'm handsome?" He asked. Ava's face and cheeks turned a bright shade of red.

"I do, who couldn't think that." Connor admired her confidence. He just smiled and went back to eating. After dinner, he took both plates and all the dishes they had used and took them to the sink to wash. Ava came in behind him. "Can I clean up the kitchen while you wash dishes?" She asked

"No ma'am, you go sit down, you are a guest and I want you to act like one." He said and pointed to the couch. She groaned.

"But you're underestimating me! Let me clean, please!"

"Fine, just the counters, it's getting late and I'm tired." Teamwork didn't make it take to long, after about half an hour they were finished. Connor went upstairs and Ava followed.

"Where do you wanna sleep?" He asked, turning to face her. "The guest room, the couch...?" She smirked.

"With you..." she said, grabbing the collar of his shirt and pulling him into a kiss.
