Chapter Five

The following day she awoke with a mild hangover to find a text message from Devon Cross thanking her once again for a wonderful time. He’d sent it a half an hour after dropping her off the night before, but she’d been sound asleep by then. She hastily replied, and he returned the text within minutes. They spent the day casually texting each other as she straightened up her apartment in between playing with Burley to pass the time. Knowing Destiny was working, she shot her a text as well and asked her to call whenever she took her next break. At three in the afternoon, her phone finally phone rang and she relayed the events of her odd yet exciting date while Destiny listened attentively to every word and, as always, offered her support. For years she’d been pushing Eva to venture outside of her comfort zone and date a man who could offer her the finer things in life, and she was thrilled to hear her friend had finally done just that.

When six o’clock came, she flipped off the television and began readying herself without the painstaking effort she had made the night before.

He stood wearing a vintage Star Wars t-shirt and his sneakers looked as though they’d seen better days. When she commented on them, he confessed that they were his favorite pair and that they’d lasted him since high school. It was her first time seeing him as a regular person, and it was a sight she could easily get used to. For a moment she forgot all about his vast wealth and the estate where they’d be spending their evening.

Heading downstairs to the familiar waiting town car, he helped her inside just as she’d anticipated and climbed in next to her. This time they didn’t need the help of alcohol to feel completely at ease around each other. The man she had only known for less than one week now felt like an old friend and she found herself sitting a bit closer to him than she had the previous night.
