âFinally,â I breathed, releasing a long exhale. Trent eased off the gas before turning his car into the driveway of a large, two-story brick home. We were in the Scottâs Addition area, where I knew the average cost of homes was at least four hundred thousand.
I glanced at him, expecting him to back out of the driveway and say that he was kidding, but he kept going until the garage door began to lift.
âWow!â I said, straining my eyes to see more details. âYou have a beautiful home.â
âThank you,â he replied.
Although the stress of the night hadnât entirely died down, it didnât stop me from acknowledging Trentâs amazing house.
âI took you to my condo the last time because it was closer,â he said before I could ask whoâs place weâd slept in the night he rescued me from Donni.
âPlease donât take this the wrong way, but I didnât think dancers made enough to afford a place like this, let alone two places.â
He chuckled.
âThe ones who use their money wisely do. Iâm under thirty with a degree, a car, a condo, and a house thatâs paid for. If you ask me, dancing is underrated as a good income source.â He lifted a finger to reiterate something. âSorry, this house will be paid off by the end of the year,â he corrected. I could hear the pride in his tone, and he should have been. If heâd used dancing to get this big of a head start in life, then I applauded him.
A bit more of my tension eased when we rolled into his garage, and he cut the carâs engine.
He hopped out and marched around to my side to help me out. I slapped my palm into his, smiling up at the big, bright smile he shone down on me.
Warmth and ease were the relaxing vibes that rolled through my body while walking beside him. He keyed the door open before showing me in with a sweeping hand gesture.
âFirst things first. Iâll give you a little tour and make us some much-needed drinks.â
My smile spread wide. âDrinks sound great. And I canât wait to see your home.â
At the first view of the living room, my eyes darted around the space before I shot a quick glance in his direction.
âYou didnât decorateâ¦did you?â
âNo,â he chuckled. âI did the smart thing and paid someone to do it for me. All I had to do was tell them what colors and styles I liked.â
I nodded, seeing the subtle hints of royal blue and splashes of yellow here and there as I passed through the den and entered the kitchen.
âSo, is your favorite color blue or yellow?â
âBoth,â he replied, grinning.
âHis kitchen was all granite countertops and stainless steel. He even had a fancy rack with his pots hanging above the island.
âNice. Do you cook?â
âNo,â he replied quickly. âDoubt I know how to take one of those pots down.â He shrugged with a lighthearted grin on his handsome face.
I laughed.
âYou laugh, but Iâm one of those whoâll somehow manage to burn a pot of water.
