After that beautiful moment we sat up and started walking on the promenade in front of the Casino. It was a warm night. We walked for hours and before we knew it the clock red 12 o'clock. 

"Do you want to head home? I would love to stay in this moment for ever, but I know you have to work in the morning." 

For some reason the only thing that I heard was " I would love to stay in this moment for ever" and I started smiling like an idiot. 

"Why are you smiling Jo? You miss your work that much?" by his last word he started smiling too.

"No, of course not. I would rather stay right here with you than going to work, but something has to pay my bills. You can come up to my place for a couple of hours. No harm. I'll manage to wake up in the morning". I was hoping he would say yes. I didn't want this night to end so abruptly. I was enjoying myself for the first time in years.

"That would be nice. To be honest I don't really want to let go of your hand, or you, for that matter". Robert had this glitter in his eyes. I never saw that in any other boyfriend I had before. He wasn't even mine to call, and he was acting more like it, than any other guy.

We drove to my flat and went inside. 

"Well mister Downey welcome to my crib. It's not much and it's not what..." before I could finish what I was saying Robert kissed me. He depended the kiss and held me tight,

"I don't care if it's not much because this is the place you call home. As long as you call it home, I'll call it home as well. It's actually pretty cozy if you ask me. I love it". He started walking around the place to figure out where everything was. As he reached the living room I remembered that I never had the chance to clean. I suddenly remembered about the Iron Man collection that I had and that I never had the chance of hiding it. I didn't want him to think that I was obsessed with him.

"I see that you have the Iron Man collection. Never said you were such a big fan of my super-hero side."

"Ohh well I just think Stark is the coolest thing around. With all the gadgets and the suit. He's like...wow" by the time I said wow Robert started laughing. I had a look of joy when I was talking about his character.

"And besides, Stark is one sexy man. Who can resist those charms?" I was getting closer and closer to Robert . He pressed his back onto the wall as I was walking towards him.  

I started running my fingers up and down his shirt. " And... he has a nice body. I guess you could say that Iron Man is my favourite super-hero of all times. Ohh and how could I forget that smile."

He started breathing heavily as the he got more tensed. " Jo...I-i-i ....you look gorgeous talking like that...Oh my God." he stuttered and looked down into my eyes.

That man can surely make you want to let your wild side out. He was hypnotizing. His eyes were like two chocolates. His smile was dashing and made you want to do everything in your power to keep it on his lips.  He was perfect.

He started running his hand up and down my sides, eventually resting them on my hips. He pulled me to his chest and stared me down like he wanted to glue me to him. He closed his eyes and rested his head on the wall.

"I never thought I'll find my one happy place. I never thought I would find it miles away from home. I never visited this country before, but I took my chances. I guess you could say I knew I'll find that one person I could call mine. You complete me and I've known you for only 2 days. How is that possible Jo-Jo? How do you manage to make my heart beat again?"

"I-i-i ...I don't know. I guess you could call it faith. You do that same exact thing to me. I feel my heart beating again. I never thought I could ever find that happiness again. I think we were meant to be right here, in this moment, just the two of us." With that I leaned forward and planted a gentle kiss on his lips. His smile got wider, if that thing was even possible. He opened his eyes and looked at me once again.

"Even our eyes match Jo. It's insane. When I look at you it's like seeing another part of myself."

*I'm on a highway to hell...* my phone rang from my pocket. I sighed and picked up.

*Hey Alex....you sure have a bad timing...*

*Why do I have a bad timing? It's not like you're not alone sitting on the couch and watching TV. That's all you've been doing for the past 2 years. Work and TV*

*As a matter of fact I do have something better to do. I'm on a date so I'm begging you to call me tomorrow or something*

*Uhh little Jo on a date?!? May I ask who the lucky guys is?*

*The lucky guy is....none of your damn business . You'll find out when you'll find out*

"Wow..now that was annoying as hell. She always calls when she's not supposed to. Last time she called me I was in a photo shoot and the one before that I was annoying some police guy at work. She sure know how to pick her moments."

"Well now that the phone conversation is over can we pick up from where we left?" Robert was looking at me with puppy eyes.

I nodded and he kissed me like there was no tomorrow for us. He started backing me to the couch. We layed there just kissing . He kissed my forehead and hugged me even tighter.

"You know Jo. I would really love to call you mine. Would do me the honour of becoming the most important human being in my life? "

"I don't know Robert." he was sad as he heard that. 

"Hell yes. Did you think I would turn you down? I've known you for 2 days and I already see you as the most important thing in my life" The smile that I loved so much was plastered on his face once again.

"So what next girlfriend? Want to take over the world together?" 

"I would love that but I have work tomorrow."

He got up from the couch and started walking to the entrance door. He got himself dressed and looked back at me. I was still on the couch not understanding what he was doing.

"Well...would please open the door cause I'm pretty sure I'm not invisible and I can't walk through it."

"Where do you want to go Tin Man? Back to Jarvis? " He started laughing so hard by now.

"Well you said you have work tomorrow and I don't want to keep you up...I thought..."

"You thought wrong. Now come back here because I need my Downey bear . I need to cuddle with my Tin Man" 

He looked confused or at least he didn't think that I would let him spend the night. Who am I kidding? Of course I wanted him by my side. I needed him more than the air itself. 

He came back on the couch and I was once again in his warm embrace. We watched TV for a while and I fell asleep. At some point I felt like I was moving and before I knew it I was laying in my bed with a Robert that seemed to be glued to me. I slowly drifted back into dream land.

"I think I'm falling for you Jo. Why do you have to be so perfect? Good night my little heart". He whispered gently before planting a sweet kiss on my lips. Little did he know that somewhere in my mind everything that he just said to me was recorded and it was playing over and over again.
