"Well, a lot does sum up my parents' relationship," Madeline said with a grim smile.
"What about us? What sums up our relationship?"
"Strangers? Dating?" Madeline says with a nervous smile.
"Wow! It hurts right here." Cristian says and points to his heart.
"Want to give me a tour of your penthouse?"
"Sure! Sorry, forgot my manners. I just have a pretty woman in my apartment ready to eat my spaghetti and got all excited, you know." Cristian says with a grin.
"Yeah, I get it. Does that mean I'm too good for you?" Madeline jokes.
"Why so serious?" Cristian says with his dimples on full display.
"I'm just playing.."
"Okay, well, come with me. You'll love the balcony." Cristian walks hand and hand with Madeline to the balcony.
"Wow. This is a sight. The pros of living at the top of a building then, huh?" Madeline says.
"I like it too, great for mopey drinking and sliding into the DM's you know." Cristian winks.
"Such a f**k boy, dude."
"Nah Nah, just having fun. Here for a good time, not a long time. You see."
"Yeah, yeah that's what f**k boys say. My f**k boy radar is sounding."
"Hey hey, be nice. f**k boys have feelings too, you know."
"I don't believe you."
"You are so fun. Let me show you the gym."
"Is that where you get buff?"
"Yes!" Cristian says, lifting his arms and kissing his left muscle.
"Oh, my lord! Why are you soooo cheesy?"
"Come come. I'll show you why!"
Madeline walks into a room just as big as her office floor. It was full of gym equipment.
"Woah. You weren't kidding."
"Yup."
"Have you used all this equipment or is it just to show off?"
"Haha, just to show off to the ladies. Gym rooms are the hype nowadays."
"I had no idea." Madeline laughs.
"No no, I have a group of 5 guy friends that will come over every Saturday to work out with me, since I've got the biggest in-home gym."
"That makes so much more sense."
"Want to see my bedroom?"
"Sure."
"Well, here it is."
"Wow, right beside the gym, huh? Such a gym junkie."
"Maybe."
"Your room's really nice, it shows off your style."
"You are going to have to show me your apartment one day."
"My apartment pales in comparison. For real, who has a gym the size of a Harris Teeter?
"This guy!" Cristian says, pointing at himself.
"God, you are so cocky."
"Just for you," Cristian says, showing his pearly whites.
"Wow."
"Don't be jealous, you are just in shock."
"Yeah, because this is crazy! Who has a whole floor as their penthouse with a gym the size of a grocery store?"
"Rich people? That has money to spend. DUH!"
"Okay... Good for you."
"I'm going to the living room now unless you want to do something more in my room." He says with a wink.
"Come here," Madeline says her cheeks hurting from all the smiling and laughing she has been doing. She can't remember the last time she has had this much fun with a guy. Cristian's just so honest and fun.
Madeline wraps her arms around Cristian's neck and goes in for a kiss. Cristian obliges.
Madeline felt heat waves the longer they kissed. It felt different than all the other guys. Indeed, there was chemistry here.
"Wow," Cristian says.
"Yeah."
"Cristian, I think I should go before we take this further."
"Okay."
"Sorry."
"No, no worries."
Cristian walks Madeline to the front door.
"Do you want me to walk you to the car?"
"No it's still bright, it'll be fine. Thanks though."
