Anna leaned back in the front seat of Eric’s fancy convertible, looking up at the stars. They were dazzling tonight, stretching far into the black, no longer hidden by the light pollution of Danovar’s capital city. Eric was taking her on a “nerd date” to the rural area of the country—he’d installed an app on his GPS that gave them an audio tour of the constellations that were spangled above them, and had driven her out to this beautiful overlook to enjoy the night sky.

She gave him a sideways glance. He was enjoying himself, she could tell, but something was different. Something had been different between them ever since she’d given him head. She appreciated him letting her try something new on him, letting her prove to herself that she could have an intense sexual connection with a man if she let herself. She’d wanted a repeat event tonight, just to make sure she got in some extra practice—she always had been an overachiever—but he’d wanted to take her out instead. And even though she was having a good time, she was a little worried he thought he had to use this date to pay her back for the blowjob.

This nerd date, she reminded herself, not a date-date. Because they weren’t dating. Even though she was starting to catch herself wishing they were. Dating Eric for real would be impossible; they were too different, and even if he truly thought she was as beautiful as he claimed, he’d had plenty of experience with beautiful women before. She was nothing new.

But still, the wanting was there—the wish for a real relationship. It was dangerous, and she pushed it out of her mind before it could settle.

“You don’t have to pay me back for anything, you know,” she told Eric, interrupting the GPS’s description of Ursa Major.

He smiled over at her, but it looked a little forced. “I’m not,” he said, then put the car in gear. “Wait til you see what I’ve got planned next. You’re going to love it.”

She buckled her seatbelt back up, frowning as she glanced at the time on the dashboard. “Just how long is this nerd-date?” she asked. “We’re already hours from the city—are you going to be awake enough to drive back tonight?”

“We’re not driving back,” he said mysteriously, pulling out onto the main road.

Half an hour later, she saw what he meant. “Whoa,” she said, standing in the lobby of the most fantastic bed and breakfast she’d ever seen. It was decorated like an old-time night club, but everything was in black, white, and varying shades of gray. She felt like she was in an old movie—and then she recognized the piano and the bar, and realized that was exactly how she was supposed to feel. “Is this… Casablanca?” she asked in awe.

“Yep,” said Eric proudly. “This B&B is one of the best in the country, ranked at five stars. Every room’s décor is inspired by a different great love story.”

She spun in a circle, taking it all in.
