CHAPTER 17
Sara stood under the cherry blossom tree, the chilly atmosphere bringing goosebumps all over her skin, the cool breeze whipped through her curly hair, working its way and successfully making the packed bun look greasly.
Becoming frustrated at having to wait for Christian for so long, she wanked of the ribbon and the tight bun fell down her back in a pile of long tresses.
***********
Christian saw her, he saw the angel of his dreams, she was so pretty under the cherry blossom tree, her hair so long and curly was currently being whipped different ways by the wind.
The atmosphere was so cool, he had come late he knew that, he had been held by traffic and had gotten a sunflower and some chocolates (her favorite, as Ariel had told him) on his way to her, to apologise.
Revving his bike faster, he got to where she was and was taken aback by what he saw, standing with a short pink cocktail dress, her hair cascading down her back, her cute little toes bouncing on each other, in what he could only say was frustration, she was a living goddess, he couldn't believe she was his.
She had a silver purse and necklace on her collar, she was like a queen who had just won a pageant.
Her ears were adorned with silver studs and they glinted under the lamplight where she stood with her arms round her body.
She was gorgeous, so gorgeous that for a minute he was lost for words, not knowing what to say.
He came down from the bike smiling and said- "Hello love."
He was a vision in black, he looked so muscular and handsome, she couldn't take her eyes of him since he stopped with his bike by her side.
He was also staring at her intently, not saying anything and Sara decided to break the awkward silence when he said something to her.
"Hello love." he greeted.
"Hey." Sara replied, biting her lips shyly, and straightening up, removing her arms from her body.
"Ummmm, you look so beautiful, darling, I just couldn't stop staring at you, when I saw you from afar, you look like a princess, my princess."
Christian said and she blushed profusely, she was sure he could see the red patches round her cheeks.
"Thank you, you don't look so bad yourself, my prince."
Chuckling quietly and sexily, Christian bent to kiss her cheeks and she swooned.
She was in cloud nine, he had kissed her, even though it was a peck, she felt on top of the world.
"I brought you this, to apologize for keeping you late, traffic held me up and also for not calling you like i promised, no harm meant my phone is down."
Sara collected the bag he had brought, "It's nothing, although I was dissapointedwm when you didn't call, I thought you had forgotten. I was even thinking of pulling off my dress, when Ariel advised me to come here and wait for you a little bit."
"Oh sorry, I'm so sorry baby, what are we still doing here?" Christian asked.
Laughing Sara answered- "I don't even know oh."
"Hop in my bike,my queen let me take you to a trip, you'll never forget in your whole life."
Laughing, Sara climbed into the back seat of the bike, collected the safety helmet from Christian, and off they went trailing into the night.
**********
Christian had done well in his selection of this restaurant, cause by the look on Sara's face, to say she was stunned was damn little.
Her face glowed like the stars above them, and he kept on staring at her like the lovesick fool he was.
"Oh my, Christian this is so gorgeous, stunning, fantastic, beautiful, God! I can't believe yo actually brought me to this expensive place for a date, I feel like a princess already." she said swooning.
"You are a princess, my queen, you deserve this and more." Christian said and she blushed.
She was a cute blusher, it was very easy to have that sexy red patches come all over her face, he couldn't wait to see them when he made love to her, her moans, sexy little screams. God! what the hell was he thinking about.
Moving forward, he opened the restaurant's glass doors and ushered her in.
Her beautiful pink nails adorned with silver glassy shoes was a sight to behold.
Carefully following at a much slower pace at her back, so as not to overshadow her, he directed her to the seat he had reserved, overlooking the beautiful beach just outside, with a clear view of the ocean, the spot was just as pretty as the damsel sitting opposite him.
"Christian, this place is so gorgeous and fantastic. Its so beautiful, but how did you manage to get this expensive place for us to go and eat, and how did you manage the expenses?" Sara asked and Christian chuckled.
He knew she was going to ask him this question, he had been expecting it all along.
"I will do anything for you my sweet, go through any length just to make you happy, I didn't bring you out here to worry about price or anything, I took you out because I wanted to, and I also wanted you to have fun, relax and enjoy yourself, okay love,so don't stress yourself. The bill's on me anyway."
"Oh Christian, this is just to much, my first date and I am swooning like this, I am so overwhelmed, this is superb, oh thank you so much." Sara said, and Christian smiled.
He was happy that she had liked where he had chosen.
Signaling the waiter, they placed their order, and were given bread and oil with non-alcoholic white wine as appetizers before the main course would be brought in and served.
Staring at her lips as she ate very slowly and neatly, drinking the wine at , Christian's heart leaped a notch, she was just perfect for him.
While waiting for the main course, Christian took her hands in his from across the table, squeezed it gently and stared into her eyes.
The night was about to begin.
