Home Is Where the Heart Is
chocolate,”
she told him as she pulled the pack out of the bag. She looked up at
him and grinned. “Swiss chocolate is especially perfect,”
she added.
    “ So, I guess I am off to a
pretty good start, huh?” he teased. She felt herself blush as
she shrugged. After putting the bag on the table next to the door,
she glanced up at him. “Your chariot awaits, milady,” he
said jokingly as he gave her a small bow. She smiled as she walked to
the door. They were about to get into the car when Julie saw her best
friend’s cream white Prius pulling up.
    “ Oh holy shit,” she
thought when she saw her getting out of the car. “Just
what I need,” she rolled her eyes before speaking. “Meg, hi”
    “ Julie, heading out?” Meg
asked smiling.
    “ Yeah, kind of. This is Steven
Davenport, a client. Steven this is my best friend Meg Tyler,”
she explained as she tried to ignore the fact that her cheeks were
getting red, almost crimson. She knew that at that moment, Meg had
already gotten enough ammunition to use against her.
    “ Client,” Meg spoke with
amusement in her voice.
    “ Yes, dad. Client,” she
spoke through gritted teeth and stared daggers at her best friend.
    “ Nice to meet you, Davenport?
Is it?” Meg asked shaking Steven’s hand.
    “ Steven is just fine. I find
Davenport to be a bit too official,” Steven said. “I was
about to take your friend for dinner. Would you like to join us?”
    “ Oh no, I just came for my
spare key. The garbage disposal at my mum’s house seemed to
have loved mine a little more than I hoped it would,” Meg told
Steven. Julie smiled at her.
    “ Just a minute,” she told
them as she walked back into the house. Meg looked at Steven and
smiled at him.
    “ So you are Steven, huh?”
she asked.
    “ Judging by your tone I would
guess that you already know a few things about me,” he laughed.
    “ Well, I am the best friend. I
know what color underwear she had on this morning,” Meg joked.
A smile played on Steven’s lips.
    “ Is there any chance that I
might get to know what color underwear she has on right now?”
he asked mischievously. Meg laughed at him and shook her head.
    “ You are a cheeky fellow,
aren’t you?” she jested just as Julie walked out. “Thanks
sweetie,” Meg said as she took the key from Julie.
    “ Don’t mention it,”
Julie replied.
    “ Well, you kids have fun,”
Meg said as she gave Julie a little wink before heading to her car.
    “ Your friend is nice,”
Steven said as they walked towards the black town car.
    “ Yeah, she is something,”
Julie chuckled. She looked at Steven as he opened the rear left door
for her. “Of
course you have a chauffeur. I would have expected nothing less,” she thought as she
got in. “Hi,” whispered Julie when she saw the driver in
the dark suit.
    “ Evening,” the man said
in greeting just as Steven got in.
    “ Hope you like Italian,”
he said as the car pulled out. Julie just smiled. It was all she
could do without breaking into nervous feats. She could not help but
notice just how rich the atmosphere was. There was something
different about this car compared to all the other cars she had ever
been in. The rich brown leather, felt so good and soft under her
small palm. She even found herself wondering what the leather would
feel like against her own naked skin at some point. “You live
pretty damn far from your work place,” Steven stated.
    “ Yeah, it is a long commute but
I don’t really mind,” she explained.
    “ So, you have never considered
moving somewhere closer to the office?” he asked. She took a
long deep breath and smiled.
    “ Oh I have. But the property
rates in that side of the city are a bit rich for my taste,”
she told him. “And I know what you are thinking. ‘But
you’re a realtor’,” she added with a giggle.
    “ You read my mind,” he
said laughing.
    “ Well, I have found some
affordable apartments, but the neighborhood is not somewhere I’d
be
