“Let’s go,” he says, as he takes me by the hand and leads me out the door into the elevator. He looks at me,
“Alanna if you feel at all unwell today, you have to make sure you tell me, Okay?”
“Yes I will, but I feel fine.” I was not lying to him; I do feel fine in fact, I feel so good. For a while, I had rather lost my way, but now I am feeling my old self again. We walk into the lobby of the Chatwal Hotel and a few members of staff greet us.
“Your car is here Mr Black,”
“Thanks,” Adrian says to the bellman, and he gives him a tip. I am not sure how much he gave, but I did not look a small amount that Adrian handed over, and judging by bellman’s face, he did not think that it was small either. He walks me out the front door of the hotel and there waiting for us, is a black Rolls Royce.
“I was sick of cabs,” he says with a smirk.
“You only went in one.”
“Yes but that was one too many.” I laugh as Adrian opens the door for me. He follows behind me but before he does, he makes sure that he gives the door attendant the same type of handout that he had with the bellman. He takes a seat next to me and closes the door. The car begins to pull away and I look at the plush surroundings of the luxury car. The seats are soft black leather, and there are thick lambswool rugs on the floor. The roof of the car is lit up with, tiny little stars and I cannot help but think that this car is gorgeous, and is the ultimate car for the ultimate man. Adrian leans over and opens the armrest, which is in the middle of us, to reveal a bottle of champagne and two glasses.
“Would you like a drink?”
“Sure,” he takes out one glass and begins to open the bottle of champagne, as he pours I say.
“Aren’t you having some?”
“No, I don’t drink.”
“I thought I saw you with a scotch in London,”
“Yes you did, but that wasn’t for me,” he hands me the glass and I take a small sip. He moves his arm and again lifts the massive leather armrest and he pulls out a bottle of water for himself. I glare at him frozen, not able to speak and I am glad I cannot, as he leans over and kisses me. His phone begins to beep in his pocket and he pulls back.
“Sorry, I will have to get this.”
He answers the call and from what I can make out it is a business call. He is talking about large sums of money and investing in property of some kind. I do not even hear the words he speaks; I am too ecstatic and excited to take them in. When the car comes to a stop, Adrian opens the door and takes my hand.
“Do you like Fifth Avenue?” He says raising one eyebrow, and with a wicked smile across his face.
“Yes I love it, it’s always been my favorite ever since I was little.”
“Then what are we waiting for.”
He walks me down the cold street that is so busy. He has his arm around my waist as he glides towering over me. As soon as he stepped out the car, he took out his black aviator sunglasses and slid them onto his face. He is breathtakingly beautiful and I can honestly say that every woman I see is making evil eyes at me. However, I do not care, I feel so incredible right now that nothing could spoil this moment.
“Let’s go in here,” Adrian, say as he whisks me into the Rolex store.
“Hello welcome to Rolex, how can I help you?” The shop assistant says, not looking at me in the slightest bit, instead with her eyes fully placed on Adrian.
“I would like to see some ladies watches,”
“No problem, come on over.”
Adrian takes of his sunglasses and slips them into the front of his shirt. He takes me over to the counter, where the woman is taking a tray of watches out of the glass cabinet. She places them carefully on the glass-polished counter, still not taking her eyes off Adrian.
“Which one do you like?” I look up at him with look of annoyance.
“Adrian you can’t,”
“Which one do you like?” I sigh, “They are all so nice.”
“Which one Alanna,”
“You choose, I couldn’t possibly and you seem to know what I like, so you pick one.” Adrian exhales and looks a little annoyed with me. He starts picking up a few, but putting them straight back down.
“Do you have one that’s similar to this one,” he pulls back his sleeve to reveal a massive yellow gold diamond incrusted watch.
“I will have a look in the back.” I look to Adrian
“You don’t have to do this.”
“Do what?”
“Buy me a Rolex, I don’t need things Adrian.”
“I know you don’t, but I want you to have them so please let me.” I sigh.
“I am never going to win this argument am I?”
