Part VIII - Andrew & Serena

- Andrew -

As I stepped into the penthouse, I was greeted by two eager faces that looked like they had just ran a 5K.

"Hi! You must be Andrew, I'm Kristen and this is Alexis."

"If you're lucky you'll get to call be Lex someday."

"Lex.. I'll keep that in mind," I threw her a smirk, which didn't seem to impress her as she walked away flipping her blonde hair in my face.

While she walked away, a figure emerged from the hallway. It was Serena. She looked amazing, she was effortlessly sexy and all I could think about was what was under that white dress that complimented her figure so perfectly. Luckily, I regained my composure and found my certain "swagger."

"Good morning Serena," at this point I couldn't help it and I was grinning at her with a cheeky smile.

"It's nice to see you again, Drew."

The moment my nickname left her seductive lips, I almost lost it. The way she uttered it was simply sexy. This chick wasn't even aware of how much power she held over me! I felt my face drop in shock at the fact that she had even remembered I told her she could call me that. She giggled and proceeded to take a seat at the island located in the middle of the massive kitchen we were currently standing in.

"I'm gonna go hang out with Lex. We have a pretty packed day of plans today," the red head practically dashed out of the room to join Alexis in what I was assuming the living room.

I have to admit. It was pretty damn awkward for the first five minutes or so. It was almost painful. We made small talk, but all I wanted to do was take her into one of the many bedrooms of this penthouse.

"So, what did you have planned for today?" Serena's tone finally changed our conversation into a more comfortable one.

"Well I was planning on taking you to my favorite place to grab breakfast and then I figured we'd spend the afternoon exploring what Central Park has to offer. I mean you're so close, you should probably get familiar with the layout since you'll be staying a week. I'll walk you back here after."

"That's it.." she had a disappointing look on her face, but I couldn't help but find it adorable so I slightly chuckled.

"Difficult to please huh?"

"I just don't settle," she said with a righteous look on her face, "I just thought since we had the whole day we'd do an awful lot more. I didn't come out here for you to waste my time, did I?"

She was smiling at me and I have to admit the way she got under my skin just made me yearn for her even more. I could tell she was just teasing me so I decided it would only be right if I returned the favor.

"Babe, I never disappoint," I stated with a wink. I got an immediate reaction as her cheeks turned red. "Let's go," I headed over to the elevator, "I'll tell you the rest at breakfast."

We walked about six blocks until we arrived at a cute, unique, little diner place. It had the traditional subway tiled walls, and neon signs. The whole time here, we talked about our favorite things to do and everything that we like. Surprisingly, we weren't all that different. But when it came to the topic of movies we couldn't have differed any more.

"What the hell are you talking about? Are you out of your mind? The 007 movies are where it's at."

"You cannot possibly be telling me that "007" is better than a good Nicolas Sparks inspired movie."
