YM778.TV Chapter 148 - Valentine's Day (3)
After dinner, Aiden and Sarah sat on the sofa, holding each other.
Aiden took her left hand and touched the ring. "These have some features."
Sarah moved and straightened her back, looking at Aiden with a wide smile while patting her chest. "I don\'t know if my heart can handle any more surprises today."
Aiden laughed. He was ecstatic to see that he successfully executed his first Valentine\'s with a woman who fills up his heart. He looked at Sarah with eyes full of emotions, and explained, "They have GPS tracking. As long as we wear these rings, at any time I will know where you are, and you will know where I am. Also, the symbols are touch sensitive. We can program three different patterns and when we use them, they will send notifications to devices of our choice. Eve will monitor battery life and charge them via wireless."
Sarah\'s face lit up. She looked at the ring at her finger, and then at Aiden.
He pulled her into a tight hug and closed his eyes. "Since I lost you that time, I was thinking... I don\'t want anything like that to happen again." It was obvious that he is recollecting an unpleasant memory. Only he knows how he felt when he was not able to find her, and he knew that she is in danger.
Sarah nodded in understanding, "Agreed. I hope that we are never apart, but if that does happen even for a short while, I want to know where you are."
Sarah is possessive of Aiden. She is not willing to share him, and she wants him next to her. He feels the same way about her. Two of them cooping up in the apartment by themselves would not work for many couples, but for Sarah and Aiden it works perfectly. Their need for each other is an obsession to which both of them are willingly surrendering to.
She remembered his secretive video chats, "Is this what you were doing with Felix?"
"Mhm", Aiden confirmed.
"Thank you", Sarah said and buried herself deeper in his embrace. "I don\'t know how to express how happy I am, today was perfect." She lifted her head and looked him in the eyes, "Everything about you is perfect, and I still can\'t believe that I get to wake up next to you in the morning, spend the day with you, go to bed in the evening with you, and hold you through the night."
Their eyes were locked to each other, silently exchanging emotions that raged within them.
…
At that time, it was almost noon in New York, Valentine\'s day.
Doorbell of Sophia\'s apartment sounded, and she opened the door. Large bouquet of red orchids was in front of her, and Felix peeked from the side. "Are you ready?"
Sophia\'s lips stretched into a smile which she unsuccessfully tried to pull back at least a little bit.
He handed her the flowers. "These are for you."
She extended her hands and took the flowers, "Thank you... I need ten more minutes. Get in."
Sophia put flowers in a vase and placed it on the dining table, then went to the bedroom and closed the door behind her. Felix made himself at home, recently he came to Sophia\'s apartment frequently, so he knew how to get himself comfortable.
About ten minutes later, Sophia exited wearing a dark red sweater dress which hugged her body. Dress had a V-neck in front that showed a hint of cleavage, and the length of the dress ended just above knees. Her hair was pulled up into a messy bun, exposing her fair neck, and she had a light makeup on. Felix observed her with hungry eyes while she put on knee height black leather boots.
"How do I look?", she asked Felix and did a swift turn on her toes letting him see her from every angle.
Felix looked at her with his eyes wide open, and he swallowed hard. "Good", he responded.
"Just good?", Sophia was suspicious. She knows that she looks great in that outfit.
He chuckled, "You look fantastic!" He needed to correct himself.
Sophia shook her head seeing that she needs to ask in order to get a good response from him. "That\'s better. Where are we going?"
"You will see.", Felix wanted to be mysterious. He spent a lot of time finding best places to take Sophia for Valentine\'s in New York, and he didn\'t want to expose his plans ahead of time. "Where is your coat?"
Felix held Sophia\'s coat for her, helping to put it on. His hands lingered on her shoulders longer than necessary, and it made Sophia shiver slightly.
Felix took her ice skating at Rockefeller center. Sophia was good at skating, and she was surprised that his skating skills are not inferior to hers. Few kids bumped into Sophia and she lost her balance for a second. Felix was right behind her. He grabbed her hand to help steady her. After she regained her balance, he didn\'t let go of her hand, and she didn\'t struggle to free her hand either. They ended up holding hands while skating, Sophia found that childish and romantic at the same time.
After a round of hot cocoa to warm up, they went to Metropolitan Museum of Art and participated in Valentine\'s scavenger hunt. Sophia was surprised that she enjoyed these activities. Since she took over Orion Enterprise as a CEO she is mostly focused on work, and before that she was focused on studying. Her last outing for fun that she can remember was when she was in high school. This was a relaxing change for her. After scavenger hunt, they spent some time in the museum looking at the exhibits. They lingered for almost one hour at the exhibit of jewelry. Sophia was surprised to find out that Felix is knowledgeable about the topic. As they moved from one to another piece, he talked in detail about headdresses, ear ornaments, brooches, belts, necklaces and rings, their origins, significance, designers. It didn\'t take long for Sophia to get mesmerized with his voice. That deep voice heavily laced with French accent.. Even if he talked about everyday things, her attention was drawn to Felix, and she would follow after him as if he had an invisible string tied around her heart tugging her whenever he moved.
