Henry's POV
Since when? I asked her
Since you came to where I worked for the first time she answered.
You like me ? I ask her again
Yes she said and nodded.
I can't believe this I said holding her hands I ignored the warm feeling passing through it . Eva you have given me the beat mews all year.
She looked at me and smiled. So what now?
We stay together forever and ever I said to her.
So funny she said rolling her eyes.
Okay we can do whatever you want.
I like you and you like me she began and I nodded. We can do what normal people who like each other do. What do they do?
You don't know?
No she shook her head. First time a guy telling me he likes me on forever.
Well we first go as boyfriend and girlfriend make our relationship officially. I said still holding her hands.
Can we take it slowly she asked in fear.
Yes princess anything for you. If you want us to graduate you just tell me okay?
Yes.
Okay let me take you home I said feeling her hands.
No she said and held my hands let's talk a little more okay?
Okay. What do you want to talk about?
How did you fall in love with me ? She asks.
How do you know I love you? I asked teasing her.
You don't love me she said with a mixture of shock and anger.
Of course I do I was just teasing I said and she looked relieved.
Well that day you came to tell me that you had warned about Darlene and I didn't listen to you. The way you stormed out. I also liked the way you forgave me when I begged you. You even offered to continue to tutor me. I said and she looked as if she was blushing. I couldn't tell though because it was dark already.
What is your favourite colour? she asked me
Are we playing question and answer game now I teased her Ash I said.
Why? She asked some what confused.
It's an abstract colour. What of yours? I ask
Cyan.
What's that? I ask now the confused one.
A shade of blue.
What is your favourite song? I ask.
Well it's helplessly by Tatiana Manios.
Wow so girly I say wiggling my eyebrows.
What is your favourite song? she asked me.
I don't have a favorite song I love all songs equally I said as if I was saying something patriotic and she laughed.
Favorite food she asked.
All food. Yours?
Well I love Italian food.
Noted I said.
Okay any other questions? She asked.
No one I can think of then she looked at the watch and discovered it was almost 10.
We are way at the other side of town we need to get back or I may get in trouble with dad.
Your dad is a director he is supposed to be cool with his daughters having dates I say to her.
Well he isn't cool about it what can we do about it? She asked.
We started heading to her house. After I parked at the gate.
Can I come see you tomorrow?
No she said and I frowned. I mean I want you to come but it is all still new. I need time to process it. You are still coming here on Sunday for dinner with my parents she said calmly.
It's okay Eva you think about but please don't keep me waiting I said and she nodded.
Bye Xander she said smiling.
Bye Eva she said and went inside.
I drove home and went upstairs. I was so damn happy that she said she likes me too. I wanted to call her and hear her voice all night but she said to give her space but that doesn't mean I won't court her. I will make sure she finally accepts me.
Sunday evening.
I spent the whole of Saturday cautioning myself not to call Eva. I know it was all too much for her to handle but I wanted to take her to my favourite places and go to concerts with her.
I want to do things I never even thought of doing with Jolene or Darlene. My only two girlfriends. I know I have to tell her what happened between me and Jolene but that's not the most important thing for now.
I go to the florists and get some flowers for her. I am making it seem as if I am getting it for her family but I am getting it for Eva.
I park and knock on the door. I see the house keeper opens the door.
Welcome sir she says and leads me in. Who can I call for you.
I will like to see Eva I say and she shows me where to sit. I sit and admire the living room. It's a paradise here on earth.
After a few minutes I hear someone come onto the room.
Hey she said as she entered the living room wearing a shirt with the inscription best hands and a high waist jeans. She had her hair in a messy bun and her lip stick was minimal but she looked so very beautiful I was sworn by it.
Hey Xander she said sitting near me.
Um.... Hey princess I said giving a smile. I brought flowers I say extending them to her.
Thanks for coming and the flowers she said standing to take them somewhere after a while she came back. It will soon be time for dinner. James is not here yet but I have to check on something and tell mom you are here so I will be back in a jiffy she said standing up.
Eva I said to stop her.
Yes she asked turning to face me.
You look very beautiful tonight I said and she blushed.
Thank you she almost whispered.
She left and soon I saw James come in too after a while Emma came down stairs. When she saw James she squealed and hugged him. They were talking but I didn't pay attention to what they were saying.
Eva entered again with Emily and David.
Nice to see you James and Henry Emily said to us.
Good evening Emily I said to her. Good evening Mr. Drayton. He nodded at me
Good evening Emily James said charmingly taking her hands and kissing it. I saw Emma roll her eyes and David's jaw tightened.
Young man don't try to hit on my wife David said.
Be nice Emily said to David and turned to us smiling. Let's go for dinner she said leading the way. I don't know but I think it's going to be a long night.
