After that adventurous shower with Alan, I felt more at peace with myself which is hard to explain but I feel so much better.

The next day I awoke to the smell of coffee. I smiled and rolled onto my back and opened my eyes. There was no Alan but that was normal. I sat up and looked over to the nightstand beside the bed and saw the hot steaming cup of coffee and a note. I picked up the note and read it.

'Dearest Rebecca,

Enjoy your coffee. Meet me downstairs in the garden in an hour, I have chosen an outfit for you to wear, its ready and waiting in the bathroom. Don't be too fashionably late,

Your's forever,

A. xxx'

I smiled as I sipped on my coffee. What was he planning? I slipped out of the duvet and walked to the bathroom. As I opened the door I could see a gorgeous dress, Black fabric with pink lace down either side of the hips making it look like it was something royalty would wear. I smiled to myself. 'This is so me, he knows me so well.'

I climbed in the shower to wash off my sleep and refresh myself. After I climbed out I put on some light makeup and styled my hair. Curled and to one side. I slipped on the pink heels that were at my bedroom door.

I stepped out of my room and walked down the hallway down to the grand staircase that was the centrepiece of the household and elegantly stepped down the stairs, fearing I might break an ankle. As I neared the back doors to the house I could see Alan in the distance on a hill top quite a way away, but he had a cobbled a path leading to him.

As I closed the door, Alan turned at the sound and looked directly at me approaching him. He smiled as I climbed the hill and arrived at his side. I gave him a quick kiss on the lips leaving behind a little smudge of lipstick. I laughed and lightly wiped it off with my fingers.

"Good morning love." He said to me as he held on to the crocks of my arms not wanting to let me go.

"Good morning. Whats with the suit?" I asked, eyeing him up and down.

"Oh nothing special. Follow me." He linked his fingers with mine and lead us further away from the household and into what looked like a mini forest that had been planted perfectly in a circle. As we entered I saw something shine. No it didn't shine, it was a reflection. As we neared the bright light I gasped at the gorgeousness of what was before me.

A greenhouse that was a dome. Completely covered in glass with white iron holding the structure together. It was stunning. When Alan gave me the key I looked into his eyes.

"I had this built for you. Something for you to care for in your free time, a personal escape so to speak. Do you like it?"

"Like it? Alan I love it with a passion. Its amazing, thank you so much." I said just before I gave him a quick kiss and walk towards the door. I slipped the key in the lock and turned it. I pushed the door open and what greeted me was stunning. Roses bushes of all colours, shapes and sizes. And many other amazing flowers and the smell of lavender filled my nose as I took the first step inside. He bought, and built this all for me? This man really does have a lot of money to waste on a woman but then again maybe its not wasting it. This was his way of showing his affection.

I turned and looked at Alan with the biggest smile on my face.

"Alan I love you."

"And I love you sweetheart. I also have another surprise." He walked up to me and pulled something out of his pocket. He handed it to me.

"A holiday? To the canary islands. But Alan what about the manor and this?"

"It will be cared for, we need a holiday Becca and I think you are more than deserving right now."

We are going away. To the canary islands!!! Just what I need, a break.

A break, on an island with Alan.
