Chapter Seventeen
Today was as close to perfect as any day could get. They had gone in and out of the stores like teenagers, teenagers with money. She had tried on anything that caught her or his eyes.
The flip side was that he had to try on whatever caught her eye, too. She’d discovered that her too thin body had already gained weight. She ignored that fact. It had to be the Rowl. She figured tomorrow was soon enough to confront him and Dante.
She laughed as he carried most of their packages to the car.
“Tell me, how did I get all the packages with bright pink bags and you ended up with the ones that don’t stand out?” He complained.
“Just lucky I guess.”
She opened the trunk and helped him stow away the bags, putting the over flow in the back seat.
They had been at the mall for hours. She’d watched him walking around, flexing his muscles and showing off his hot rear. She’d glared several women down and kissed him in front of one to get her message across.
She’d always made it a rule not to touch another’s man. Now that she’d one of her own, she wanted the same courtesy. Was that too much to ask?
“I haven’t had that much fun in a long time. We should do that again soon.”
“Do you hear that?”
“No.”
“It’s the sound of my credit cards crying.”
“Oh you.” She gave him a swat on the arm and settled back as he pulled out of the mall lot.
“Did you enjoy the mall?”
She hated herself for asking, but a small part of herself needed to be sure he was ok with having spent the day with her. It wasn’t the money or the clothes. She could easily pay that back. She hadn’t really needed him to buy her anything.
She’d learned a long time ago to provide for herself. It was the investment in time she was concerned about. You could never get that back. Money wasn’t as important. You could get that one way or the other.
“Kitten, I’ve never gone to the mall with a female before. I’ve been there several times with my brothers. We go to the store we believe our purchase is in and then we leave. This was like another world.
It reminded me of combat without the actual killing, when you locked eyes with that other female customer going for the same one-of-a-kind dress. Although I’m positive that they had more than one of them in stock, the look in your eyes as you stared her down, was more fascinating than a video game. We have to come back soon.”
She flushed red. He’d seen the dress and his eyes had popped. ‘I can see you wearing that at our next company function.’ She had to have it. A hand reached for it the same time as she did.
The woman had looked down her long straight nose at Dee and practically ordered her to hand it over. Oh no she didn’t. Dee had smiled at her, the smile she used when she was about to make a grown woman cry.
