At the end of our date, Jamie walks me home. We talk and laugh all ten blocks back, with our hands intertwined.

Right when we turn onto my block, he swings me around and gives me a big kiss. His lips are soft and delicious and I can’t help but kiss him back.

“Are you for real, Ms. Everly March?” he whispers in my ear, wrapping his strong arm around my shoulder. “Because I’m not sure you are.”

Those words send shivers down my spine. I smile and press my lips onto his again.

When we get to my door, I ask him inside.

I love the way he looks at me and I love the way he wants me.

I want him.

And not just because I haven’t had sex in a long time.

“I’d love to,” he says, giving me another kiss. “But I can’t.”

“Oh…why?” I ask, caught a little off guard.

“I have to get back home to my grandma. I couldn’t stay for longer than twenty minutes and I want this to take a lot longer than twenty minutes.”

Another shock of electricity rushes through me.

“Really?” I ask, nearly melting in his arms.

“Yes, really,” he whispers. “So, how about tomorrow?”

“You want to come over tomorrow?”

“Yes, I’d love to. But first, I’d like to take you as my date to this party at the Oakmont.”

The Oakmont Hotel is one of the oldest and most expensive hotels in the city. The cheapest room there goes for about a grand a night.

“Who do you know that is throwing a party there?” I ask.

“Hey, I may be a poor poet, but I know a lot of fancy people,” Jamie says, giving me another peck on the lips. “So, will you come?”

I shrug.

“Yes, of course.”

“I’ll pick you up at seven. Wear something nice,” he says, pulling away from me and giving me a kiss on my hand.

A true gentleman.
