We Found the Real Thing....Our LovePart 2 of " Is This the Real Thing"

Chapter Thirty

 Can was going to make it a short day today, he thought, wanting to make a special dinner for Sanem at the cabin that evening. So he needed to prepare for it, he planned on meat on the grill, a salad and a chocolate cake with hot fudge sauce on top, it was his favorite. He knew she would love it too. This would be the night before the engagement proposal, he felt like it should be something special for them both. He made it to her door to pick her up by 8:00, as usual and Mevkibe meet him at the door. " Can, welcome son, come in, Sanem is coming." She said. He nodded, " Is the time still ok for tomorrow, 6:00pm." He asked nervously. She smiled, "Yes, it's still fine, we will be waiting for you and your father." She assured him. Can breathed a sigh of relief, making her giggle when she heard it. Sanem came down the stairs, " Good morning Can," she said, reaching for his hand as she reached the bottom of the stairs. Can almost melt into the floor at the sight of her sometimes, " Sanem, you look beautiful today." Oh, Mrs Aydin, i would like to have Sanem for a few hours this evening if that's possible." He asked, " I'm planning a dinner for her, something special." He spouted, looking quite proud of himself. Mevkibe nodded, "  I think that would be fine, where are you taking her." She asked. Can straightened, " I will be cooking myself, at my cabin." He said. Her mom looked at her with reservations. " I'm not sure if that's proper, will you two be alone." She asked, looking at him with questions. Can immediately knew he had presented that in the wrong way, " Mrs. Aydin, you can rest assured that I have the utmost respect for your daughter, and I would not expect anything more than just a lovely dinner with Sanem." He said, making direct eye contact with her. She smiled, " Very well children, I will trust you both, as long as she is home at a respectable hour." She demanded.

Sanem was smiling so big her cheeks hurt, all the way to the office. Can glanced at her, " What are you so happy about, You look like you're just about to be engaged or something." He said, pinching her cheek. She laughed, " Can I have never been so happy, in my whole life." She stated. She leaned over and hugged his arm, holding him tight until they reached the agency. Can parked, he turned to her, " You're not the only one that's happy you know," he whispered, leaning in close to her, letting her scent drift around his head. " When can we tell everyone we are getting married," he asked, nudging her neck with his nose. She stiffened, "Can, I think we should what until after the engagement proposal, and my parents officially give me to you." She exclaimed, trying not to look him in the eyes. He laid back against the seat, " Really, are you sure." He whined, closing his eyes. She smiled at him, " Yes, I think it's the right thing to do, don't you." She said, giving him a demure look. He quickly agreed.....But that comment stuck in his head, "my parents give me to you"......What a delightful thought. He smiled and reached for her hand, as they started into the agency.

The absence of Deren was noticed by everyone. Aziz arrived shortly after Can and called a meeting to the conference room. As they all sat waiting for Aziz to enter, Emre and Can went over the days agenda, and the accounts to be focused on. When Aziz made his appearance all attention was on him. " Good morning all," he said, waving his hands to everyone. " As you all have noticed, Ms. Deren is not here today. She has taken a leave for a while to rest, she has worked hard here for many years and felt the need for a long vacation." There was a buzz around the room, as the employees whispered their thoughts to each other. " Now, now, let's not jump to conclusions," Aziz remarked, " She will return when she feels she is ready, so until then Can and I will take over her duties, along with a few of you others here that have shown us your talents." So let's all work together and help where we can." He surmised, looking at Can for support. Everyone clapped as Aziz and Can stood together in front of their employees. Sanem got a disappointed look on her face, " Does that mean that Can won't be able to accept the job from the magazine." She wondered, looking at him with questions in her eyes. He didn't look  at her.....

After the meeting Azizbey and Can hurried to his office, without a look to anyone. She was afraid all their plans had just been destroyed. But she went about her work as usual. By mid-morning she knew he would be ready for a break so she brewed their tea and headed to his office. She tapped on the door, with the tray in her hand, he smiled and motioned her to come in. She made her way to the other side of his desk to place his tea in front of him, he quickly grabbed her hand, pulling her down on his lap, " Where have you been all morning," he whispered in her ear, " kissing her neck and nibbling on her earlobe. Sanem gasped, at the suddenness of it, " Can, someone will see," she protested, trying to squirm out of his hold. " Do I look like I care," He said, his eyes locking with hers and taking her to that place of desire. She sighed, " No you don't, but you should," she replied, trying to hold herself together.  His other hand was rubbing her back, slowly and sensually, she had goosebumps covering her body, " This man tears down every ounce of willpower I have," she thought, feeling her stomach churn and her heart beat faster. She felt herself sink into him, as they heard a knock, " Son, sorry to disturb you but I going out for a while, but will be back before you planned to leave." He stated, giving Sanem a wink of apology. She jumped up quickly and took her tea from the tray. " Very well dad, are you going for a meeting?" Can asked, unfazed by the interruption. " Yes, of sorts." I'm speaking with someone about working here while Deren is gone, we'll need someone, especially after you and Sanem leave." He said. Can nodded, "Yes, you're right, I just talked to the editor of the magazine, and they need me to commit as soon as I can, and possibly leave in 4 weeks." Can explained, giving Sanem a side look. He hadn't had time to tell her that yet, and he hoped she didn't get all nervous about it, but things would work out.

She breathed a sigh of relief, " Good their plans were still in place." she thought, giving him a smile. The whole idea of an exotic honeymoon had become very exciting to her, her thoughts of it made her want it more and more. 

" Her thoughts of their honeymoon vivid in her mind......wow, would she be able to do it..

She was so inexperienced, it scared her.....but she knew he would be more than willing to teach her.......And she would try to be the best student ever!!!
