LOVE STORY (DINNER FOR TWO)



The next day Carrie walked into her office and was surprised to see the roses on the table. She picked up the note and it said; “if the roses were as beautiful as you, I would have a rose garden all around my house. Have dinner with me tonight. I have some ideas for the party and I want to share them with you. She took the card, placed it on her lips and smiled, then picked up the phone.

It was a long and stressful day for Nick; it was meeting after meeting, all he wanted to do was sit down, relax and have a glass of scotch. He reached over for a glass when he then noticed the two messages. The first one was from Carrie - she thanked him for the flowers, but declined the dinner invitation. The next one blew him away. He was surprised but more than anything, hurt. He was not expecting to hear from this person ever again and his anger got the best of him.

Nick, not giving up, calls Carrie every day, “How are the plans going?” one day, “Do we have a meeting today?” another day. Carrie and Jessica both giggle and continue working. Late that evening Carrie was walking out of the office when Nick approaches her. He smiled and gave her a single rose and a note, then left, no words spoken. Another dinner proposal, this time she accepts.

It was seven-thirty when Carrie arrived. She walked into the waiting area when she noticed Nick walking towards her. His smiled lit up the room and he said” You look lovelier then I had imagined you to be. He took her hand and escorted her to their table. She looked up at him, her eyes danced with excitement and she smiled in returned. Her heart was beating fast,” I need to keep my cool. Do not let the emotions that are running within me take charge, relax, breathe. C’mon Carrie, you can do this.” She thought.

Dinner went well. They talked for hours, about her business her interest and even about her childhood. Nick smiled as he studied her; he, as well, talked about his life, his business, his accomplishments, and his downfall. They laughed; danced, everyone around them could see the attraction sparks flew everywhere.

Nothing could have gone wrong - two worlds have combined into one. Who would have thought that they met weeks ago?

It was close to ten o’clock when he dropped her off. He walked her to the door and before she could say a word, he grabbed her and kissed her. She was out of breath but the desire was mutual. As she closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment, it was a moment she will never forget. Her heart leaped with joy and from that moment on she knew things between them would never be the same again.

The next morning Carrie did not want to get out of bed. She wanted her dream to go on. She thought about Nick and the wonderful evening they had shared. She smiled to herself but the smile faded just as fast. She just broke one of her own rules -- never mix business with pleasure, although she was excited about last night; she was disappointed too.
