Selena looked from the cab to Jaxon, wondering how he managed to always pull up with a cab without even signaling for one.The cab driver attempted to leave his seat to come outside, but Jaxon waved him off to remain inside. He opened the door to the back seat himself, bowed his head slightly while holding the car door, and keeping his palm in the manner professional chauffeurs would.If he wanted to impress Serena, he was wrong because she had suspicion written all over her face, as she reluctantly entered the cab.Her dress was quite short, so when Jaxon joined her inside the cab, she attempted to drag it down. He saw what she did and smiled, he didn't want her to see it, so he faced the other way."I don't trust you." Serena was the first to speak. She glared at him.Jaxon looked straight ahead, he didn't even turn to look at her, yet she could see the mischievous smile he gave. Serena had to admit as she watched him from the side. He was so cute, which even annoyed her more."Yet
Jaxon could tell that Selena was nervous, but he enjoyed it. He admired that she could be stubborn, yet she managed to keep calm when she wanted to.He didn't like carnivals like this, he thought they were for kids, but he didn't have any idea of places to go at the moment, and he thought she would like something like this.He had seen the fear in her eyes when she saw the roller coaster, and he wondered if she was really scared or if he was just exaggerating.There was only one way to find out."Let's take a ride on the Ferris wheel." He stopped in front of her.Her eyes darted sideways before settling in front of her, she didn't stare at him. She kept her eyes on his chest."Why? There are so many other things to try," said Serena."I know, we could do this first, the queue isn't long yet," Jaxon replied.Serena looked at the small crowd around the foot of the roller coaster. She could count about ten heads. That was fair enough."Are you scared of heights?" Jaxon asked as he closed
It was already 3 pm when they decided to join the crowd listening to a singing competition.They sat beside each other, Jaxon excused himself and came back with drinks and french fries minutes later.While the third performer sang "So easy to love" by Sad puppy, Serena yawned tiredly."I think I'm bad company, you're already bored," Jaxon said without looking at her.Serena glanced at the side of his face, his hair was messy from him touching it so often, but it still looked cool."You're not so bad, I just didn't think you'd bring me to a carnival," Serena replied."You expected something different?" Jaxon turned to look at her. She was playing with the hem of her dress."Not that I had a place in mind, I just didn't know what to think, but this has been fun, anyway," Serena said as she exhaled."You must have had plans since you're on a vacation, what would you have done if you weren't here?" Jaxon asked."I don't know. I visited the library yesterday before I bumped into you…for th
The driver dropped her at the hotel and she went straight to her room. She caught herself smiling as she took off her dress in front of the mirror.She closed her eyes as she reminisced about the moment when she was on the Ferris wheel with Jaxon. She sighed and fell on the bed, her phone rang and she searched her purse for it. It was her best friend Hadley."Hey SC!" Hadley's voice came through excitedly when she answered the call."How are you, chipmunk?" Serena smiled as she stared at her ceiling. "I'm good, I'm watching Rich dad and eating chips." Hadley munched loudly. "What's up with you, you haven't been sending me any photos. Don't tell me you've been in your bed all day.""I just got back from a carnival, I mean I just had a really good time!" Serena rolled over and laid on her stomach.Hadley could feel the excitement from the phone."Sereennaaa, tell me, what's going on, spill, come on girl!" Hadley urged her on."There's this guy I bumped into yesterday." Serena hesitat
Jaxon assumed Serena would ignore his message, so he thought of calling her instead. On second thought, he dropped his phone on the desk and fell onto the couch. He ran his hand through his hair.He had just been without her for a few hours and he couldn't get his mind off her. He picked up his phone again and stared at the picture he took of her.She looked happy, her hair shined under the sun just as her eyes sparkled and made his insides tingle. Her dress covered most of her thighs, but he could bet the beauty underneath was just as magnificent.He wondered why she had lied to him that she was with her brother on a vacation, yet she went out with him like she had no other plans with anyone.He was quite certain she would agree to go on a date with him, but he didn't want to push his luck too much.As much as she could be stubborn, she didn't seem like most women he'd been with that felt being rude and proud to men was an attractive thing.Hers just came naturally, she was quite na
Serena woke up the next morning thinking of what to wear for her date with Jaxon. He wanted her to wear the blue heart necklace. Anything that would go with the blue heart necklace had to speak of luxury. She didn't bring any dinner gown with her, except one which she wasn't sure was good enough.She turned off her airplane mode and a text came in as her phone refreshed."Do you have any problem getting dressed?" The text from Jaxon said.She was glad he could come to her rescue, but she didn't need him to buy everything she wanted.Before she could think of what to text back, she heard a knock on her door.She wrapped her robe around her body and opened it. Her hair was a mess, but she couldn't care less. "I think it's too early in the morning," Serena said as she yawned with half-open eyes.She was surprised to see two attendants in front of her, both were females. The way attendants kept showing up at her doorstep was freaking her out because she didn't pay for any exclusive serv
It was almost 5 pm when she got back to her hotel. She felt so tired after walking around the city, she took a nap immediately.Her first thought was to set an alarm incase she slept for too long, but she brushed the thought away. "To hell with Jaxon Sawyer," she said as she lay in the comfort of the soft pillows.All she kept seeing in her sleep were pictures of her and Jaxon kissing in a restaurant. She had to force herself out of sleep.She was fighting every bit of affection building up for Jaxon within her. She didn't want to believe it was anything serious.For all she knew, Jaxon was just trying to have a good time with her and she would also have her good time at least. There was nothing more, nothing less.She began to think of her last relationship in college. Her ex-boyfriend Matt, whom she had never really liked him. She dated him out of pity, he was always been so nice and friendly.It felt like a crime not to like someone like him, so she went ahead and dated him. She d
Jaxon was still surprised to see that she arrived early. The driver had texted him when he picked her up, but nothing prepared him for the beauty he was looking at in front of him.She had curled her hair, she looked even prettier in makeup. He fought everything in him that wanted to know the fragrance of her lipgloss.The dress, he had underestimated her. He thought she'd pick the longer dress, but she went for the shorter one.He loved it, the way he outlined her curves and showed her smooth thighs. His eyes moved to her hands as they clutched her purse. She also had her nails done. It thrilled him that she had put in effort for the night. Maybe he was having an effect on her after all.Most importantly she hadn't forgotten the necklace, it lay on her chest just on top of her cleavages. "Someone really went all out for this." Serena's voice interrupted his thoughts."Someone else was also very expectant, she arrived on time." He scoffed."I keep to time, I don't like to delay peop
