Holly looked radiant as ever when she opened her door. Her hair was still wet and she'd brushed it backwards. She looked at me with her dark brown eyes and gorgeous smile. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her towards me. I leaned down and kissed her on the top of her head.

When I finally let go of her she looked at me with a slightly puzzled expression. ‘What’s gotten into you?’ she asked.

I smiled. ‘I just love you baby,’ I said. ‘Are you ready?’

She nodded but the puzzled expression remained. ‘Just let me dry my hair and I'm all yours.’

I patted her on the bum as she turned around and walked up the stairs. A few moments later I heard her hair dryer start.

I walked into her living room and sat on her sofa. There was an old sitcom on the television and an open box of Roses on the coffee table. I helped myself to a handful of chocolate and settled in.

Some twenty-minutes and a dozen chocolates later Holly was ready to go. I'd booked us a table in a country pub and it took us nearly half-an-hour to get there. We worked our way through a packet of chocolate covered raisins while we sat in traffic.

Despite the traffic and leaving later than I’d planned we still arrived early for our table, so we went to the bar and Holly found us a table while I ordered the drinks: a dry white wine for her and a Fosters-top for me. I helped myself to a handful of mixed nuts while I waited for the barmaid to prepare the drinks.

‘You okay?’ asked Holly as I returned to the table.

‘Sure am,’ I replied as I placed her drink on the table and sat down opposite her. ‘What do you think you'll have?’ I asked.

She looked at me with that quizzical look she gets, most of the time it means she thinks I'm up to something. ‘Not sure,’ she said at last. ‘It all looks good.’

It really did look good and as we drank and waited for our table I scanned through the menu hoping to find something a little bit special.
