A couple of minutes later Jasmine is all dressed looking elegant on her creamy knee length gown with a gold stiletto. Her hair was neatly brushed and was let flaunting on her right shoulder.
Majestically she walked down the stairs with Emily behind her.

Ray choked on his coffee when he saw her. "Hey handsome? Are you OK?". Rosa asked handing him a towel to wipe off the drip of coffee on his chin.

"Yeah,I'm fine. Thanks." He replied flashing her a smile and collecting the towel from her hand.

Emily was now in front leading Jasmine towards the dinning table.
"Cutie,she's ready to go with you as long as you are ready." Emily said winking at her friend and then returning her gaze on Ray with a grin.

"Yeah. I'm... Ready." Ray said still stunned with the sight of Jasmine. He stood up and walk up to her. "I must confess you look breath taking." Ray added while he stood in front of her.

Jasmine smiled at him with a blush and mumbled. "Thanks".

"Thank you Emily for convincing her to go with me. I owe you one." He said with a wink.

"Anytime cutie. Now you two should go have fun not standing there looking at each other in a lovey-dovey way." Emily replied having caught them in a locked gaze.

"Just shut up!". Jasmine said given her friend a playful glare and giggled.

"I'll only be when you two are out of here. My heart is racing... Please Rosy can you get my fiance on the line for me?". Emily said resting her hand on her chest looking touched.

"Emily!". Jasmine warned before Emily raised her hand in surrender winking at her friend.

Ray chuckled. "I guess we should get going already. Thanks once more. I'll see you two some other time." He said referring to Emily and Rosa before heading to the door.

Jasmine followed behind and glanced at her friend who gave a thumbs up before she looked forward at Ray who had open the door for her and gesturing her to do the 'lady first' thing and afterwards he shot the door behind them.

They got out of the gate and Ray did the same thing by opening the passenger seat door for her and then closed it while she was in. He jogged to driver side and hopped in putting on his seatbelt before turning the ignition to life.

They was silence in the first few minutes drive to the express road. Ray cleared his throat and begin. "I...I'm glad you changed your mind and came with me. Thanks."

"Okay. So where are we going?". Jasmine asked.

"Its a surprise. I'm sure you'd love it." Ray said smiling and took his eyes off the road for a moment to glance at her before returning his gaze back to the road.

"Oh. OK. But I hope you're not going to kill me and throw me into the sea?Or maybe you're thinking of kidnapping me?". Jasmine said in askance.

Ray expression changed. "Why do you think that bad about me?",- he questioned but got no answer from her, "-well perhaps I'll go for your second thought. That's to kidnap you and spend some time alone with you for as long as I want." He added in a low tone and took her hand into hers placing it close to the brakes.

Jasmine felt a shiver down her spine. Once more she felt a butterfly in her stomach. The feeling she has whenever he touched her is incomparable. Never had she felt this way for any guy. She stared at him lost in thought, admiring him in all aspect of his body with her mouth gape from what he had said earlier about him kidnapping her just to be alone with her.

"Are you really checking me out now? I've always known you've got hots for me." He said when he caught her staring at him. His smile widen to a grin when she saw her face was redden in an embarrassment.
