The Mystery Guy!

The next step.

I really wanted to forgive him, his gorgeous face looking all hurt, on and off I've been texting Carla, she said he could be telling the truth, I agree he could, but what if he wasn't?

I guess today's the day I'll talk to him. I have four days left off my week off. Better make it count. I'll get showered first.

After getting showered, dressed, I walked down stairs, the smell was insane!! Pancakes,bacon, and fresh coffee. I think I'm in heaven! The guy knows how to make an apology!

He suddenly notices my presence. I gave him a weak smile.

"Good morning pretty, you hungry? come sit."

After breakfast, I helped clear the dishes. Ashley asked If I wanted to go sight seeing, the thought of fresh air was so inviting. I agreed quickly! I was excited, Ashley said we would get lunch out.

I didn't know where that left us but as we were driving around, he grabbed my hand, to my surprise, I didn't pull back, I let him. It felt like we were a real couple. Will we ever be a real couple?

As I still don't know where we are at, pretending that we are a couple will have to do for now. We parked up and started walking, hand in hand. I got the strange feeling of being followed, but I couldn't see anyone. I pushed it to the back of my mind. I was having a great day.

Lunch time arrived, Ashley had set this whole romantic picnic up. I was in awe. It was perfect. A red blanket, with rose petals scattered, a bunch of red roses placed in the middle and a beautiful lay out of food. I couldn't help my big grin, against my better judgment knowing I might ruin the moment, I had to ask.

"Ashley, I want you to know that I appreciate this and it is so beautiful, but what is happening with us?"

He looked at me, smiled and just said "You're mine".

I just knew.

Things went a little better than before, we spoke a lot, got to know each other more, watched movies. I'll catch up with Carla at work Monday. I have the weekend left with him before I go back home.

I've enjoyed myself so much.

Honestly, I don't ever want to go home, but that's for another day, I'm just going to enjoy his company for now.

I tell him all about me although there's not much to tell, he's amazed I'm still working at that company and briefly slips in that he's always got positions at his workplace. I'm really thinking about it, I just don't know if it would be weird.

What if he's got women who want him? I don't want to be made the laughing stock. I told him I'd think about it. The time has come for me to go home. Sadness pings my heart, I don't want to leave him but I also need to work. He will drive me home, so that's an extra 2hours plus with him.

We got into the car, the next two hours were spent getting to know each other with the parts we didn't get to at the picnic. I don't even know how he has time to send me messages throughout the day when he has such a busy work life I feel a slight twinge in my heart knowing he takes time out to message me.

I can't help but feel uneasy fearing someone is following me, us, of course I don't tell Ashley, I think I'm just being paranoid.

Those two hours fly by, in no time I'm at my apartment. Saying our goodbyes, tears start to form, I quickly wipe them before he sees them.

What is happening to me?

Why do I feel this way?

A few hours had passed since Ashley dropped me off, honestly I felt kind of empty, I decided to go run a bubble bath and try to relax. Noting I'm back at work first thing tomorrow. I had text Carla to say I was home were going for drinks tomorrow after we've both finished work.

A buzz goes off on my phone, knowing I've got a message, I check it before I jump in the bath:

I miss you already. See you tomorrow beautiful A x

He's really so sweet.

Knowing that he is okay, my bath was more relaxing than ever.

After my bath, I got another text from Ashley. He said he was going to pick me up for work tomorrow. Oh lord, all the girls that drool over him are going to see me go into work with the hottest guy ever. CRAP!
