9 CHAPTER NINE

AMAYA'S POV

After having breakfast and lunch with Chase, we had a good time together. We talked, laughed and played some game together. He was being closer to me than usual and I guess that's a good thing.

I got five different dresses from Chase and they're all lovely, now all I have to do was to choose the one to wear. There were two blacks, one blue, one red and one grey and after wearing them all, I prefer the red. It was a full length gown, with my back exposed from the neck to my waist, it has five shiny silver dots at the front from my chest to above my navel.

I decided wear this instead, it hugged my body so perfect, it brought out my curves.

It was almost time for us to go out now, but I still have almost an hour from now to get ready. I decided to shower just to freshen up before I begin to dress up. After coming out of the bathroom I began to do my make-up, although I didn't wanted to look too serious or over dressed, considering I don't know where we were going.

I just applied some mascara, lip gloss, eye liner and my powder. Looking at the mirror, I looked beautiful. With the new hair, and lifestyle, I just exhaled. Indeed you don't know where you'll find yourself. Who would've thought that I'd be here, in a big mansion, wearing an expensive dress and about going on a date with my hot husband?

Husband the word came running over and over again in my head.

A nock brought me out of my thoughts, clearing my throat "come in" I said and the door opened. Seeing who it was from the mirror, It was Jason.

"Wow you look beautiful Amaya" Jason said and I smiled. "Well, thank you" I said smiling, standing up and turning to him.

"Are you ready?" He asked, making me exhale. I wore my black heels and then I nodded. "I am now" and I began walking outside, carefully thou cuz I don't want to slip since I'm not used to wearing heels.

Immediately I got out, I saw Chase standing by the door of his car, his hands inside his pocket, he was wearing a black suit, his hair was finely combed, his cheek bone finely defined and everything about him looked so perfect. I couldn't help but smile just by looking at him.

When he noticed my present due to the sound of my heels, he turned Immediately and met eyes with me, I could see the stars in his eyes, he stared at me up and down, smiling, he walked to me and gave me his hands, I took them "You look astonishing Amy" he complimented and that made me blush.

"You don't look bad yourself" I said, raising my brows and that made him laugh and even more cuter.

"Shall we?" He said gesturing to the car, and I just smiled and nodded.

"Good evening ma'am" Philip greeted, once we were seated and he was about starting the car. "Good evening Phil, how are you?" I replied "Very okay ma'am. You look beautiful" he said, looking from the mirror above his head. And I smiled

"Thank you" and he took off.

********

The street was lighted everywhere, it was shiny and beautiful, tall buildings, and people moving to and from, busy with their lives. This is New York "The City That Never Sleeps"

"Do you like the view?" Chase suddenly asked bringing my face to him "yes, its really beautiful and peaceful" I replied smiling " Yes it is" he replied looking at me straight in the eyes and I had the feeling he wasn't talking about the buildings anymore. I felt my cheeks burn, I must look like a tomato right now.

"We're here Sir" Philip said breaking the awkward moment. I turned and saw a very beautiful restaurant, it was fancy and it looked expensive. BONS ALIMENTS were the words written on the board, we got down and walked towards the entrance. Immediately I was hit by the sweet aroma of foods everywhere in the building.

"Welcome Sir, this way" a waiter greeted and directed us towards our seats. We were separated a little from the rest tables, Chase helped me with my chair, thanking him, I sat and he walked over to his side and sat too.

"What may I bring for you for now or you want to order?" The waiter asked with one hand behind him and the other holding a book.

"We'll have White wine with cassis or blackberry syrup" Chase said and the waiter nodded and left.

Immediately he left, I wanted to say something but Chase caught me up, "Feel free Amy, eat whatever you like and again be free." He said placing a hand on the table, and I smiled. "Thank you."

There was a menu list on the table, I picked it and glancing at it I have no idea what all these foods are. This is the first time I am visiting a French restaurant and I have no idea what to order.

Seems Chase noticed and he called out"Amy, are you having trouble ordering?" He asked and I nodded.

Shortly the waiter returned with our wine.

"Do you want to order now? He said while pouring the wine in our glasses.

"I'll call you when we're ready" Chase said to him and he nodded and left.

"How about Chicken broth and Fondue-like mix of mashed potatoes and sharp cheese" I stated and he smiled. Gesturing for the waiter and he came over immediately. "I'll have Shepard's pie,ground meat covered with smashed potatoes" he said to him and the Waiter took it down.

"And I, Chicken broth and Fondue-like mix of mashed potatoes and sharp cheese thank you" I replied and he took it down too. "Your orders will be here shortly" and the waiter left.

"I hope you're comfortable Amy" Chase asked and I nodded.

"Of course, and thanks for bringing me here"

******

The food turned out very nice, we ate, talked and laughed. Got to know about his Family, he's the only son, he lost his mom and he's not that close to his father anymore, but they love each other. Told me about his first love, and it was very sad. How could a lady do that to him?

We finished and Philip drove us home.

"Good night Amy, I had a good night" he said standing in front of my room. We locked eyes for sometime and the next thing I knew, he kissed me, i didn't know how to react but then I kissed him back. After separating, I turned to enter inside, my face all red "good night chase" and i smiled. I got in, changed showered and went to bed with the image of us kissing playing over and over again inside my head.

Chase's POV

I got inside my room after I just kissed Amaya, she has this soft and comfortable lips, that I didn't wanted to stop when i was kissing her. I felt sparkles and shivers all over, and I hoped she felt the same way. Changing and showering, I checked my phone for any message or call but none. Remembering next tomorrow was the big night. Amy is still my assistant which means we have work to do tomorrow. I hope tomorrow turns out good.
