Love Never Felt So Good

Chapter 2: Asking Her Out

Chapter 2:

Carter found himself at a complete loss for words as he & Steffy just stared at each other.

Sure, he knew that she had once dated his brother Marcus, & that she had previously been married to Liam Spencer, but that was all Carter knew about Steffy.

However, he wasn't thinking about what he knew about her. All he knew was that she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.

"I'm so sorry about that," said an embarressed Steffy. "Sorry about what?" asked Carter. "Dropping your file. My dad asked me to bring it over to you," said Steffy. "That's OK. I'm just glad that you brought it here," said Carter with a reassuring smile. Steffy could feel a smile of her own come across her face.

As they grabbed the file & began to put the documents in order, Carter decided to see if he could get Steffy to laugh. He had to find out if his sense of humore had an effect on her.

Turns out, it did. Steffy laughed at a lot of Carter's witty one-liners & silly jokes. Throughout that laugh fest, they were able to get the file organized.

After the file got put back together, something came to Carter's mind. Something he wanted to ask Steffy.

"Steffy?" he asked. "Yes, Carter?" she asked, unsure of what he wanted. His response surprised her.

"Would you like to go out with me?" he asked. Steffy looked at him with wide eyes.

She hadn't been on a date with anyone in a long time. Her relationships with both Rick & Liam didn't involve romantic dinners or walks on the beach. She was very confused.

Still, since Liam was no longer a part of her life, Steffy figured that it might be good for her to date someone.

So she replied to Carter's question with "Sure." Carter smiled, happy that she had accepted.

"Do you want to go out for coffee? I know a place that serves the best coffee in LA, & it's not Starbucks or Dayzee's," said Carter with a smile. Steffy nodded her head.

"That sounds great. I can't wait, Carter," said Steffy. "Would you like to go right now?" asked Carter. Steffy again nodded & said, "I would love to. Let me go get my jacket real quickly." She then left.

As she made her way there to grab her jacket, Steffy felt like she was floating on air.

She just hoped that the feeling would last.
