As they arrive and enter the restaurant, a young woman welcomes them with a smile on the face and two menus. Scott Moir?, she asks and Scott nods. Together, hand in hand they follow the woman trough the restaurant to their table. The table stands in the corner, as far away as possible form the door, behind a room divider. I hope this table is good, the woman says. It is perfect, Tessa says waiting to sit down, while Scott is moving her chair, so she could sit down easier. Here is the menu, the woman says, after both of them sit. I will come soon, when you are ready to order, she says, leaving Tessa and Scott alone. Tessas hand lays on the table, with the other one she turns trough the menu. Scott touches her hand with his, playing with her fingers and holding her hand. She looks up, seeing him, looking into his menu. She has to smile, again looking into her own menu. Scott looks up, seeing her looking into her menu. He automatically starts to smile, shyly looking back into his menu. What would you like to drink?, she asks. I dont know, what about you?, he asks back, both looking directly in each others eyes, seeing the sparkles and immediately starting to smile. Do you want to drink Spanish wine?, he asks. When you drink with me, she answers, smiling at him and squeezing his hand. Sure, he answers, asking her the next question: What do you want to eat? We could share something. He nods, looking into the menu again: Paella?, he asks. Yes, I ever wanted to try this typical Spanish food and never had the change. I would really appreciate it, when we could try it Sure, he answers, touching her face softly. The waitress comes and writes down the order. Later they bring Spanish red wine and two glasses. To us, he says, lifting up the glass and chink with Tessa. To us, she answers and then they drink. They never stop to talk. They always have something to talk and think about. Between talking they drink or just look at each other. Later the Paella arrive, a Spanish food with rice and seafood. Thats amazing, Tessa says, blowing on the hot food. Put away the fork and close your eyes, Scott says. A little bit scared about what will happen next, Tessa put away her fork and closes her eyes. She hears Scott blowing. Open you mouth, he says, she does like he wanted. He feeds her with the paella. Mhhh, is her reaction. As she opens her eyes again, she sees, that Scott now is directly next to her. Touching her softly, smiling at her, slowly breathing. Her heart beats faster, she holds her breath. I love you, he whispers kissing her. She feels his soft lips touching hers. I dont know why we havent started earlier, she says. Smiling like the smile will never disappear again. I do know neither., he answers, kissing her again. Please never stop, she says between the next kisses. I wish I could, he answers. Laughing, smiling and kissing, they feel like they are meant to be.
