I picked up the digital pencil. “Your gala.”

“You’re planning the gala?” His eyebrows shot up. “How

did that happen?”

“Madame Rose contacted my company and asked us to

plan it.”

“Did she now.” His gaze dropped to the iPad again. “May

I see?”

“I . . . I don’t really like to show my sketches to anyone

before they’re ready.”

“Even if it’s an event for me?”

“They’re extremely rough sketches.” I pushed the button

and entered my passcode quickly.

“The ball is in a week. I don’t think you have time for

extremely rough sketches.” He watched me for a long

moment. “I thought you had a date that night.”

“I do.”

“Will it be before or after the gala?”

“I’m actually taking him.”

“A work date then.”

“Sort of.” I clicked on the iPad and swiped to the

beginning of the sketches. “Maybe it would be unfair for me

to take him there.”

“I’d say.” He shrugged a shoulder. “But I haven’t been on

many dates, so I don’t know if I should be giving you advice

on the matter.”

“You haven’t been on many dates?” I met his gaze.

“I haven’t.” His expression was completely serious, but

his eyes twinkled as he looked at me. “Is that so hard to

believe?”

“Yes.”

“Have you been on many dates?”

“Define many.”

“I’ve been on five,” he said. “That’s not very many.”
