After I visited Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent,Tiffany&Co,Burberry and Ralph Lauren, and minus just over £15,000 in my bank account, we were finally ready to leave. I made Stacey go and have a drink whilst I shopped for her as she was being so fussy. (Well, I did have some assistance.)
As I headed towards Starbucks, with 8 bags packed with clothes, Stacey was telling me how ridiculous I was being.
"You do realize I'm not wearing any of this?" She said in protest as I walked towards her.
"Well I didn't just spend £15,000 on clothes for them to sit in the wardrobe..." I trailed off as her jaw dropped at the mention of money.
"Fifteen thou-..." She couldn't form a sentence.
"It's not that much Stacey, plus, I can afford it" I tried to comfort her
"Not that much? That's more money than I've probably paid in rent!"
"Drop it, Stacey." I handed her 4 of the bags, tool her hand and hauled her back to where the cab was waiting.
As we clambered into, I felt more normal than I ever had before and despite the logos these bags carried and the fact that everyone knew my face, I could have just been an ordinary guy going shopping with his perfect girlfriend.
And as I thought about it i knew in that very moment that I couldn't live without her. If there was one thing I had learnt over the years, it ws that saying goodbye makes you think. They make see from a different perspective and you realize what you've lost, and with that, everything that you had taken for granted.
I wouldnt make the same mistake with Stacey, she was everything to me and curse me if you think im going to let her go.
"is there something on my face?" Stacey asked startled.
She pulled me out of my daydream and back into reality, I had not realized that I was gazing at her face, drinking in every last feature. From her mezmerizing eyes to her full, pink lips.
"Only beauty." I teased her, even though it was true.
"Cheesy..." She giggled and looked at her hand in her lap, which I grabbed hold of and kissed the back of.
"I don't think you fully understand how much I acctually love you. I can't put it into words."
Stacey remained silent, although I knew she understood.
