I sat down in the polished seat and Blake pushed in my chair, before taking a seat across from me. I took a deep breath in and inhaled natures sweet scent. I would love to get a place out here, live in the wooded mountains be surrounded by nothing but wilderness.

A big log cabin, wrap around porch blue shutters, a large garden filled with thousands of different flowers and fruits with vegetables. It would be my own serenity.I reached for my napkin and laid it on top of my lap. My heart still hasn’t slowed down from the forceful pounding through my ribcage. I can hear it drum through my ears.

I did feel i was keeping a good composure.

While at the table I took notice there was a beautiful decadent display of assorted fruits covered in chocolate. More of the white pedals laid along the table. Everything just seemed so. Perfect to me. A soft blush came upon my face thinking that Blake had all of this planned out. But I slightly sadden to think how many other girls he did this for.

"Would you like red or white?

A waitress broke my nervousness and was standing next to the table with two different wines on her small serving tray. She was wearing a shimmery silver silk wrap dress with silver costume jewelry on. Behind all the sparkly makeup and the short black wig, I recognized her face somewhere.

"um White please."

She grabbed the white bottle and chiller it was resting in. She took the two glasses off her tray gently placing them down, before she left the table and made her way toward the kitchen. I kept my stare to where the waitress disappeared off to.

“Does she remind you of someone?” Blake says casually as he was watching me from across the table.

Yes I just cant put my finger on it.

“Well if it helps that's the waitress you assumed I was seeing a week ago. Becky. I told you she worked for me here at the club. ”

I shifted uncomfortably again feeling the embarrassment take over as I thought back to that horrible day. He reached over to grab the chilled bottle of Chateau St. Michelle. Good! I thought to myself let me just get slightly buzzed so I could feel less awkward right now. Once he pulled the bottle from the chiller you could see how cold it was when the condensation started to drip off the bottle.

He popped the cork and filled our glasses mid point. I put the frosted glass to my lips. It was a simple yet perfect combination of sweet-fruity light and crisp. Bubbles jumping on your tongue the moment the cold liquid made contact. I was going to take another sip before he reached for my wine glass stopping me, he lifted and tilted his glass towards me.

"Here is to a night of just you and me."

"Are you making a toast right now?"

"Well i kind of think this is a celebration"

"Hmm and what are we celebrating, now I'm curious?"

"We are celebrating the universe.."

"Why to the universe?"

"somehow and way the universe brought me to you at a moment that i needed to save you. somehow and way we met again in a dangerous alley in the city. And then somehow and way i found you in a park, then you stalked me at a coffee shop--"

"I was not stalking you! i just so happenly was--" He places his strong finger over my mouth, with huge smile spread across his lips.

"...Somehow and way the universe keeps putting two complete strangers in a big world and a very big state at the same time at the same place. I have never met a girl quit like you but i hope that after this night the universe will keep us together. Salute ."
