Daniel gave his number to the valet and waited while his car was brought around. Suddenly a bright light went off in their faces blinding them temporarily and they only heard the sound of someone quickly walking off.

KT was a bit shaken when she realized what had happened. “I was just joking about the paparazzi earlier. Does that happen often?” she asked shakily.

“Not really. They probably don’t have any good gossip this week and are scraping the bottom of the barrel. Don’t worry about it.”

The valet opened KT’s door and Daniel got in the driver’s seat. He adjusted the heat and asked, “Are you warm enough?”

“Yes, thanks,” said KT.

“Oh, I just remembered that one of my colleagues is having a cocktail party next Friday evening. Would you come with me? To tell the truth I’m not really looking forward to socializing just yet, especially with the Wall Street players but I should show my face and let people know that I’m still alive.”

“I really don’t think I’ll fit in with your crowd, Daniel and I’ll probably feel out of place.”

“I’d really like you to come with me KT,” coaxed Daniel, taking her hand in his, while driving with the other.

“Jonathan and Cassandra are very nice and Claire and some of the others from my office will probably be there as well. You remember Claire? She dropped me to therapy a couple of times.”

“Yes I remember her. She seemed quite nice and I liked her once I realized that she wasn’t your flavor of the month,” KT admitted.

“You thought that I was seeing Claire? And you were jealous?” Daniel laughed delightedly. “I would never have guessed.”

“You needn’t sound so pleased or I won’t go with you to the party,” threatened KT.

“OK. Not another word. Promise.”

They reached her apartment in what seemed like a very short time.

“Are you going to invite me in for coffee?” Daniel asked.

“I don’t think so, Daniel. Besides we just had coffee at the restaurant.”

“You know that I don’t really mean coffee, KT.”

“I know you don’t, Daniel, but I don’t invite guys to my apartment at this time of night and definitely not if we’re alone.”

“What! Never?” asked Daniel. He couldn’t believe what KT was suggesting. He’d always thought she was fairly innocent but not as in untouched.

“I don’t share your kind of lifestyle Daniel. I don’t sleep around. I never have.”

“Are you saying that you’re a virgin?” he asked incredulously.

“Yes,” she admitted. “Is that so unbelievable?”

“Well you must be the last one in New York. How have you managed that? Guys must be coming on to you all the time.”

“I’ve always been very protected, especially by my brother Paul so I didn’t go on many dates in high school, at least not alone. At that Youth Meeting I told you about, I committed my life to following Jesus and doing things his way and that means waiting for marriage. So although I’ve been on dates, I only go out with guys who share my values and who understand that being alone can be a temptation so we tend to hang out with other couples.
