Once they arrive at the bottom of her building, he stops his car, keeping the ignition on, looking at her. Having fallen under her spell, he has had the demonstration tonight of how popular of a woman she is, and her unwillingness to date probably makes her even more attractive. The lucky person who will be able to claim her as his or hers will be very lucky as she has all the traits that he finds irresistible.

J: Thanks Henry, it was lovely to meet you and to talk. Beware of the paparazzis!

H: I will, he chuckles. And yes it was really great to finally meet you. You are very special and if you ever change your mind about dating or you need anything or just want to chat, call me, he says before she leaves his car.

J: I will. Bye.

Watching her getting to her building, he waits that her door is opened, making sure she is safely home, before he leaves, smiling at himself as this is the best evening he has had in a very long time.

Also lost in her thoughts about tonight's events, passing through her door, she is suddenly startled by a voice behind her.

JB: Jina?

Holding her breath, emotions rising, she is scared to turn around, scared to see him. She can't just walk away. He's right there.

JB: Happy new year, he says softly.

Breathing in deeply, she finds the courage to finally face him.

J: Happy new year, she says forcing a smile, trying to stop tears from rolling down her cheeks, by looking up.

As he stands there in front of her in a warm coat, his beautiful dark locks in his eyes as he stares sheepishly down, he looks freezing, and she wonders how long he has been waiting for her.

J: It's cold, do you want to come in?

JB: Sure, if you don't mind, he says his shoulders lifted into his neck, his hands stuck in his pockets.

J: Come up, I'll make you a cup of coffee.

JB: Thanks.

As they go up the elevator in silence, she cannot stop thinking of the last time they were there, together. Listening to him breathing, reminds her of spending the night with him, as she nestled against his strong chest rising with each breathes, being pulled in a loving embrace. Lost in her memories, she is suddenly brought back to reality as they arrive to her floor. Her key now in the door, she pauses, wondering if anything in her apartment could be embarrassing, but realises everything is fine and they go in. As she drops her coat on the sofa, he stares as her, completely shocked to see her looking so gorgeous, sexy and, let's face it, absolutely breathtaking.

JB: Wow, he drops unable to keep it in, making her turn around to see him checking her out and now blushing. Did you have a nice evening? He asks as she now takes her high heels off.

J: I did thanks, she says noticing he looks particularly sharp and sexy now that his coat is off.

He's wearing a dark suit and black shirt with the three top buttons undone, showing off his cross pendant. As she makes coffee, he comes close to her, creating unease as she can smell his scent, reminding her of the smell of his warm skin during their lustful encounters. Grabbing two cups from the cupboard and placing them on the workbench, he seems as comfortable as if he lived there, reminding her he'd spent a week with her even though she was mostly in bed, recovering from her injuries.

JB: Can I use your bathroom?

J: Sure. You... you know where you're going, she stutters intimidated by his proximity.
