She saw Ethan scanning the street as she pulled up not far from him. She smiled to herself. 'He doesn't recognize me.'
As she got out of her new sports car and shut the door, she felt really nervous. "Ethan!"
Ethan heard his name and responded immediately waving in greeting...
... but the vision of loveliness standing before him made him catch his breath.
'This can't be Orchid.' he thought.
"Ethan, it's me, Orchid."
"Babe, you're gorgeous! I'd never have recognized you. I know you said to expect something different, but this..."
he whistled a long slow undulating sound of admiration.
"So you like what you see?" She said in her most sexy voice.
And then suddenly felt shy as he came towards her.
"Like it? You must be joking... I LOVE what I see and what I see is MY girlfriend and she is FIT!"
"Really!" She said with surprise, totally shattering the sexy image she was trying to convey. "I mean... reeaally." reverting back to the sexy voice.
Ethan smiled holding out his arms... "Give me a hug Orchid."
"I think you're super sexy and beautiful, but you don't need to put on any act to convince me. I like you no matter how you look or what car you drive. You can be yourself with me."
She felt a wave of relief wash over her and hugged him in return. "Thanks and sorry for the daft sexy voice."
"No need to apologize." he said as he closed her door. "Where are we going?"
"My flat, if that's ok with you." This was the first time he'd been to her place. Up until now they'd always been on neutral ground. This was a sure sign the relationship had gone up another level.
"Fine by me."
