A Different Kind Of Love [18+]

Chapter Thirteen

Jade

The anticipation until my one on one date with Drew was killing me. I was thankful to have work to distract me and the girls for when I was at home. But those times when I was alone I couldn't stop my mind from wandering. I wondered what he had planned. Would he do something romantic? Fun? What I really wondered was what would happen after the date was over. Meg had already insisted on keeping the girls over at her place for the night. That meant that when the date ended, Drew would be bringing me back to an empty apartment.

Would he expect to be invited in? More importantly, did I want to invite him in?

Friday night arrived and I stood in front of my full-length mirror staring at myself. I had chosen a pale pink off the shoulder dress. Now that I had it on I was starting to wonder if I was trying too hard. The dress was short. There was a deep V at the bottom that I would have to remember to sit carefully or else I would flash everyone my goodies and I was revealing a lot of cleavage.

Of course this wasn't my first choice. Meg had dropped by with the dress when she came to get the girls. She quickly did my makeup and left, not even waiting for me to put the dress on to see how it looked. That should have been enough to let me know that she had been up to something. The dress was super sexy. So not something I would usually wear.

I glanced over at the clock on my nightstand to see if I had time to change into something that was more me. I didn't get a chance to decide when I heard the doorbell. I took a deep breath and made my way to open the door.

Drew stood on the other side wearing a green suit. My first thought was green? But Drew pulled it off and he made the color sexy. He didn't wear a tie and the top three buttons wear undone on his crisp white shirt.

"Wow," I breathed. "You look good."

"You look - are you sure you want to go out? Because I would much rather stay in."

A flutter appeared low in my belly.

"You promised me a date, remember?"

"Then I suggest we get to the restaurant before I push you back into this apartment and rip that tiny dress off of you."

And just like that I was turned on and wanted him to rip my dress off. I reached for the side table and grabbed my purse. We definitely needed to get out, before things got out of hand.

At the restaurant Drew pulled out my seat for me like a perfect gentleman.

"Did I tell you that you look absolutely beautiful tonight?"

"You did. Thank you."

Drew ordered us a bottle of wine without glancing at the wine menu.

"Do you do this type of thing often?"

"What type of thing would that be?"

"Come to fancy restaurants. Is this something that you and Sean like to do?"
