BRIDGET'S POV

"You know I can't stay much longer, I have to go." It was already past two in the afternoon and we had been at it since we woke up this morning.. From making love to feeding our bellies, to talking and learning more about each other,basically just having fun and I enjoyed every minute of it.. But as much as I would have loved to stay all day, I had a commitment which I made.

"I'm sure you can stay a bit longer.. Come on baby" Harry wouldn't let me go no matter how hard I tried to get free from his clutches.

I immediately thought of an idea which I hoped would work. "Ok how about we do it this way, you'll let me go tutor my student and in return I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night?"  I asked with fingers crossed.

"You cook?" He asked a bit surprised.

" Of course silly, I attended a few cooking classes back in collage with anytime I could spare from my classes and jobs.. Well enough of that, Do we have a deal? " I asked hoping he would agree to it and thankfully he did after giving it a bit of thought.

" Great. It's a date. I need to go freshen up. Can I use your bathroom? " I asked as I made my way to the the bathroom door anyway.

" Of course. Will you be needing my help? " He asked with a mischievous look on his face and I knew he was up to no good.

I hurriedly entered the bathroom before he could get any crazy ideas.." Nope, I think I can manage. " I heard a chuckle followed by the bedroom door opening and closing and I took that as a sign that I was alone. The bathroom was impressive, I had to stop ogling if I was ever going to make it to my appointment on time.

Without taking much time, I was in and out of the bathroom. I saw a freshly folded dress laying on the bed with shoes to match and beside it was a clean set of lingerie. Guessing he must have dropped them there while I was still having my bath, I started to get dressed. As I was done, I smoothed out the dress with my hand to rid it of any creases. I let my hair loose from the ponytail and just used my hands to brush it out. I admired myself in the wall mirror inside his bathroom and for the first time in a long time, I looked and felt beautiful.

I made my way out of the room to go look for Harris. He was on the phone with someone probably talking business. He didn't see me walk into the living room so I surprised him by hugging him from behind. He turned around to face me awarding me with a breath taking smile.

"Ya, we'll talk about it some more when next we meet.. I have to hang up now.. " He gave me a peck on my lips as he smiled at me. " You look beautiful as always. "

" Thank you. "I said with a slight blush on my cheeks. " And thank you for the dress and every other thing" He let out a little chuckle.

"Everything else? " He said with a smirk.

" You know what I mean" He knew I was referring to the lingerie and I was a bit surprised on how he got my size but I didn't ask him about it though.

"Are you ready to go? " He asked as he dropped his phone into his pocket. I replied with a small nod." Wait here while I go get my keys."

We drove to my apartment and he offered to take me to where I would be having the tutorial but I declined. I didn't want to impose on him or take anymore of his time knowing he was a busy man.

"I had a great time babe. Enjoy the rest of your day." He said as he walked me to my door. I leaned in to peck him on his cheek and as I stepped back he held my waist and deepened the kiss.. With a wink he left me standing at the same spot looking after him like a love sick puppy. Once he drove away I unlocked my door and walked in. I was still smiling to myself as I got what I needed from my apartment and got a cab to take me to the Smith's residence.
