Eric’s strong grip on my hand conveyed a sense of everything being all right in the world. I couldn’t believe what started as an iffy, inconvenient date turned into one of the best evenings of my life.

As we reached my car, I turned and looked into his gorgeous eyes, which looked dark gray to match the sky, instead of the pale blue when in bright light. “Am I to assume a second date is imminent?” I asked.

Eric put his hand on my cheek. “Yes, I’m taking you out again.” To punctuate his statement, he pressed his face to mine, kissing me with as much passion as our first kiss, once again taking my breath away.

“This is what… Wednesday night?” Eric asked.

“Probably more like Thursday morning now,” I yawned.

“I’ll take you out again Friday night,” Eric said.

“Sounds good to me,” I said. “Call or text me. I get off work at the same time but let me go home and change first. You can pick me up at my apartment.” The prospect of seeing the buff, handsome man again made me giddy inside.

After one more juicy, warm kiss, Eric walked around to his car. “You leave before me. I want to follow you to be sure you made it home if you don’t mind.”

All the rules about being careful with a new, strange man went out the window. I felt secure with Eric. “Sure thing,” I said.

As I sat in my car and closed the door, I looked over and saw Eric banging on his steering wheel. His face looked red and my lipreading caught expletives flying from his delicious mouth.

I climbed out of my car and tapped on his window. “Car not starting?”

He rolled the window down a crack. “No. Piece of shit.”

I had plenty of empathy for his situation. I never knew for certain my car would start either. Too often, I had to take the city bus until a friend could fix whatever was wrong with mine. “I can give you a ride home,” I said.

Eric snapped his neck toward me. “No,” he said firmly.

“Well, the bus doesn’t run this late. What are you going to do, walk home?”

“I live too far away. I’ll have my driver come get me.” After he uttered the last word, his face froze as if he’d said something he regretted.

I cocked my head to the side. “What do you mean, your ‘driver’?”

Eric stepped out of the car and took my hands in his. “You would find this out soon anyhow, so I’ll tell you now.”

I knew the day had been too good to be true. I braced myself for whatever confession he was about to make. “What is it, Eric?” My knees began to shake as I awaited his answer.

“While it’s true I’m in real estate, I didn’t tell you the full story. I inherited a business when my father died. He was a billionaire real estate mogul. That title now belongs to me.” His eyes searched mine, waiting for a reply but I stood with my mouth hung open.
