The next day, we head to the convention center again. After a few hours, my feet are starting to hurt from walking so much because the problem with this vast conference space is that it’s too vast. There’s so much to see, so many booths to explore, and so many products to try. But I have to walk to sample it all.

“This is amazing,” I say, my eyes roving from exhibit to exhibit. “I can’t believe I get to be here. I hope someday I’m one of the people showing off a booth.”

“You will be,” Marcus says with an encouraging squeeze to my hand. “Why, are you interested in starting your own make-up line?”

I nod happily.

“That would be a dream, and it’s what a lot of successful make-up artists ultimately do. They get really famous for their artistry, and then release a line of cosmetics, which, by the way, is where the real money is.”

“Hmm,” Marcus nods thoughtfully. But then he changes the topic abruptly. “Are you hungry, sweetheart? Ready to take a break?”

I giggle.

“Starving. I think there’s a food court downstairs. Let’s check it out.”

As we leave for lunch, I ask Marcus how his career has been lately. After all, we’ve been talking so much about my job that it only seems fair to spend some time on his career. Although, come to think of it, he’s been around a lot more than usual these last couple of weeks.

“It’s going well,” he grins. “Don’t worry about my career, honey. You have to remember that I’ve been doing this for twenty-five years already, so I’m an old hand.”

I blush while biting into my taco.

“Oh, I’m not worried! I know you’re at the top of your game. I just want to make sure you don’t get in trouble for taking so much time off.”

He grins and shrugs again before diving into his burger.

“No, I just have a ton of vacation saved up because I’ve been working for so long without a break. Besides, there’s a shortage of pilots, so I doubt they’ll be firing anyone with the requisite training and experience anytime soon.”

I smile happily.

“Well, I’m glad because I do like that we’ve gotten to spend so much time together.”

“Me, too,” Marcus says simply before draping a heavy arm about my shoulders. We smile at each other like we’re two smitten teenagers, and my heart fills with happiness. I’ve never felt like this before, and sometimes I wonder if this is just a dream. After all, Faith was always the outgoing one who was noticed by men. I usually just stayed in the background, more of a wallflower than anything.

I take another bite of my taco and moan. “This is really delicious, especially considering that we’re basically in a cafeteria of sorts.”

My boyfriend laughs because the food court is just like what you’d find in a mall. I think there’s a restaurant attached to the hotel itself, but we don’t need anything fancy right now. The tacos are hitting the spot, and I’m anxious to get back out on the floor.
