Chapter 4
Mrs. Right

I was enjoying getting to know Jordan all that week. We stayed out of the crowd. Made excuses to our friends who basically gave up on us. We watched movies. Played poker in the room together. Pigged out on snacks at the mini bar. Then we would just sit up talking for hours. I knew Jordan was not ready to move into a relationship right now. I was not ready either. But we had a strong friendship started between us. When my time came to go home I was sure going to miss him.

"What are you thinking about?" he asks me softly as we finish playing a game of cards.

"You" I say softly. He smiles.

"Me? What about me?" he asks me.

"Well, we have been having such a great week together. And I will be leaving soon. You will to. I will miss you" I admit.

"Sleepy, I will miss you to. Maybe we can keep in touch" he offers. I nod.

"I would like that. If you are ever in my neck of the woods come see me" I offer.

"Anytime" he says as he looks into my eyes. We don't say a word. He just smiles at me. Those lips. I wondered what it would be like to kiss them. I shake my head. He was my friend. Nothing more, nothing less. Why did he have to be so good looking?

There was a knock at the door. The others were out.

"Did you order food?" I ask Jordan as the spell was broken between us. He shakes his head no.

"No did you?" he asks me. I shake my head no. I head over to answer the door. There was Mark.

"Hey guys!" he says cheerfully as he comes in the room.

"Hi I thought you were out with the others" I say.

"Can we talk alone?" he asks me.

"Go ahead Sleepy" Jordan tells me as he cleans up our game of cards.

"Alright sure" I say. Mark leads me out in the hall way.

"What is going on?" I ask Mark.

"I was wondering if I could take you out tonight? On a you know...a date" he stammers shyly. Mark did like me! I wished it was Jordan asking me out. But it was Mark.

"You want to take me out?" I asked feeling amazed by this turn of events.

"Yes I want to ask you on a date. What do you say? Jordan has gotten all of your time while you are here. Let me take you out to see the city" he offers.

"I don't want to leave Jordan behind" I worry.

"He will be fine. He is a big boy. Come on go out with me" he begs. I hated to leave Jordan like this. We were getting so close. I did want to go out with Mark to. What should I do?

"Alright. Let me talk to Jordan" I say. He nods.

"Great! It will be a night you will never forget" he tells me. He leans in and kisses my cheek. I head back in with him.

"Jordan we need to talk" I say softly. He looks up and smiles at me.

"Sure" he says. I walk over to him.

"Mark asked me out on a date for tonight" I blurt out. Jordan looked shocked.

"He did huh?" he says softly.

"We had plans first to stay in. I will tell him no if you want" I offer. I hoped he would tell me to stay. I wanted to stay with him.

"No, you need to see Vegas. Mark will be fun for you. He really liked you the moment he met you. I have hogged all your time. You go out. Have fun. Don't worry about me okay?" he stammers. He looked hurt at first. But then quickly covered up his tracks.

"Jordan?" I say softly. My heart ached for him. I should have told Mark no.

"Have a good time" he tells me sadly. He smiles then heads out of the room. I sigh. Tears come to me. I brush them away. We were only friends anyway.

"Everything alright?" Mark asks me as he joins my side.

"Just fine. Let me get ready to go. Then we can head out" I tell Mark.

"Great! You will have a blast" Mark vows to me. I go to my room. I change into the dress I had bought for this trip. It was the first time going out this week. Jordan Theorpy had been so good for me. Talking for hours. He understood me. Made me laugh. He was nowhere ready to date yet. I was not going to pressure him to date. I was soon ready. My heart was not. I wished I was going out with Jordan. What would it be like to be on a date with Jordan? I could not help but wonder.

"Everything alright in there?" Mark asks me.

"Coming!" I call back. I head out of my room. Mark looks over at me. He looks me up and down. I think he liked what he saw. He grins.

"You look amazing! Let's go show you off" Mark tells me. He pulls me in his arms for a hug. I hug him back. I was excited to go out with Mark. But my heart wished it was Jordan I was with.

Hi everyone!

Who would you want to be on a date with? Jordan or Mark? Or both? I would want to be out with Jordan myself. Or Joey. Lol. Either one would be great. Don't tell my hubby that. This book is fun to write. I had some free time to catch up on it! I hope everyone is enjoying it. And the next chapter will be Jordan's POV next!!
