“Is this mine?”
“Hot pink just the way you like it
Ms. Brite. Hop on and try to keep
up!” Konstantin kissed her and
jumped on his bike. He looked back
and melted when he saw her riding
close behind him with a big smile
on her face. What he wouldn’t do
to ensure he could see that smile
all the time.
Konstantin pulled up to a quaint
breakfast place where he’d preordered
Naomi’s favorite breakfast
of French toast, bacon, eggs and
fruit with a coffee. When they
walked in they were walked to a
table with more flowers and their
meal already served with steam
still rising from the plates. Naomi
hadn’t realized how hungry she
was until she saw it and proceeded
to eat as if it had been weeks since
she ate last.
Konstantin laughed at her passion
for food. “I will never understand
where you put all the food you eat
Ms. Brite!” He watched her in awe
still questioning how she managed
to look so sexy even while inhaling
her breakfast. He handed her a
glass of coffee with a smirk on
his face knowing she’d need help
washing down the last four bites
she still had stored in her cheeks.
Naomi’s face turned red as she
took the cup from him trying not
to laugh she sipped for a good 20
seconds before tossing her napkin
at him. “Alright ya jerk I can take a
hint,” she said finally able to laugh
out loud. “You can’t expect a girl to
exercise first thing in the morning
and NOT work up an animalistic
appetite.” She playfully smacked
his hand and before she could dive
back into her meal he held her
hand in his.
Konstantin laughed as he motioned
for the waiter to bring the check.
“My goal today is to create a
memory so meaningful that it will
stay with you forever Ms. Brite.
Only then could you understand
what your presence has done to
me.” He held her gaze and watched
as his words washed over her. From
the sparkle in her bright brown eyes
to the twitch in her pink lips as they
parted into a faint smile.
She reached toward his face and
touched him the only way she
could. He’d grown to love her touch.
It was kind, innocent and full of her
love. She hadn’t said it but he knew
because it was how he felt. There
was no other way to describe what
was happening between them.
Konstantin planned a day full
of adventure for Naomi. After
breakfast they went for a hike that
led them to a running creek where
they stopped for lunch he had
waiting for them. They swam and
played the way only two people in
love could. They splashed, laughed
and kissed completely lost in each
other. Oblivious to the real world
that awaited them.
There were moments when
Konstantin had to push away
feelings of guilt for his recent
absence in his family’s lives.
They told him they understood
and sounded thrilled he’d found
someone that was bringing him so
much happiness. The last time he’d
spoken to his brother Erwin about
Naomi he was hesitant and awaited
an onslaught of harassment about
no longer being a real man but
his reply had been something he
hadn’t expected.
“Baby bro’s in love huh? Well
between the two of us… maybe
you’re the real man.”
There hadn’t been a trace of
mockery or teasing in his voice and
Konstantin wasn’t sure if he picked
up a sense of longing from Erwin but
couldn’t imagine it since he was the
GQ man of the family. Successful in
life, business and women.
Konstantin laughed it off and
changed the subject quickly to
avoid any kind of uncomfortable
exchange but since then anytime
they spoke Erwin made sure he
asked how Naomi was and how
they were doing. His curiosity in
Konstantin’s relationship was
both endearing and unsettling
as it was a side of his brother he
hadn’t seen before.
Konstantin had a special night
planned as Naomi had agreed to
spend an overnight evening with him.
Dinner at a 5 star restaurant with a
view of the city. It was attached to
the resort they would be staying at.
He booked a suite for them with a
private Jacuzzi, chocolate dipped
strawberries and anything else he
thought Naomi would enjoy. Before
dinner he had her spend a few hours
at the spa getting massaged and
pampered from the day’s excursions.
When she emerged from the salon
in the dress he bought her he lost
his breath. Her blonde hair was
down in loose curls, her brown
eyes framed by those incredibly
dark lashes and her cheeks flushed
pink. Her lips were full with a
natural crimson color and curled
up into a lazy smile as she walked
towards him. Her milky skin looked
incredibly soft against the black
dress that hugged her every curve.
If he died in this moment he knew
he wouldn’t mind. Not with her as
his last image.
After dinner Konstantin took
her down the long route back to
their suite. They strolled through
the rose garden where he picked
a single rose and gave it to her.
As they stood under the stars
and moonlight he couldn’t keep
what was on his mind to himself
anymore. He took her hands and
looked into her eyes struggling to
find a way to put his feelings into
words. There was something about
her that made him feel unable to
get a grip.
Naomi could feel Konstantin’s
hesitation and felt her heart begin
to race. She wasn’t disillusioned
enough to believe he’d done
everything today expecting them to
cuddle tonight however she wasn’t
