Mary Wiede
Weak in the Knees
Walking into the crowded club it
appeared as if she was the most alluring woman in the club. So many
eyes gravitated to the scantily clad beautiful young woman. She
pretended as if she did not notice the attention she was getting.
She appeared to glide across the room; destination bathroom. She
looked in the mirror.
“Kristie, what are you doing?”
Ashley asked jealously. “All eyes are on you and you look like a
whore.”
“You are just jealous,” Kristie
confidently boasted. She put more ruby red lipstick on pushed the
door open and walked down the hall. When Robert saw her sexy short
dress his jaw dropped. Trying to play it cool, he walked towards
her, but not directly to her. An enterpenuer and gifted musician he
pushed his brown hair into his face subtlely. Peaking out behind his
hair his blue eyes were mesmerized by her beauty. Intrigued she
boldly walked towards him.
“Hello,” he started, “would you
care to dance?” he said with a lump in his thought.
“Okay, as long as you buy me a
drink,” she speculated. As they danced it seemed as if they were
the only people in the room. With every move her dress seemed to be
dancing with them. He lowered his hand gradually going down her
sensual back. He gentally caressed her back as he grabbed her firm
butt.
“Whoa you are getting ahead of
yourself, she removed his hand and walked away swiftly.
“Damn it, I should have taken it
slow.” He said shamefully. He walked up to the bar and ordered a
margarita and a Jack and coke. He approached her again and
charmingly stated, “How about a drink for this lovely lady,
margarita or Jack and coke for starters.”
“Give me that Jack and we will
talk,” Kristie confidently snatched the and walked to a bar stool
moving her hips from side to side Robert followed her and stumbled
along.
“You have not told me your name,”
Robert stated. “I would love to get to know you.” He said with
a smirk on his face.
“Well, I am Kristie, but I am not
easy. So if you want to get laid run along and do your mating dance
elsewhere.”
“I understand, how about a date? We
can go to a show and have breakfast at midnight.”
“Hmm,” she pondered. “Let me
think about it and I will give you a call. What are your digits?”
He smoothly pulled a card out of his wallet and gave it to her. He
walked away with a smirk on his face thinking that he just started
something that may be meaningful. He walked out to his car and rode
home.
Days passed, no call, no text, no
email from Kristie. Just as he was about to write her off the phone
rings. “How about that show?” The seductive voice on the other
line asked. “who do you want to see.
“We can see whoever you like. A
beauty like you should be able to get what she wants. So, what is it
it that you want?”
They went on several dates. He wanted
to do something special for her birthday, so he planned an
extravagant trip. Italy: a vineyard just the two of them. He came
to pick her up in a luxurious limo with white lilies in hand. Her
eyes popped open. He put a satin scarf over her eyes when she got
into the limo. Where we are going is a surprise. The driver took
the to them to the airport as they were being transported he gave her
a glass of Italian wine and told her it was a little clue to the
secret. When they made it to the airport he removed the blindfold.
“A trip, wow! I am so excited she
exclaimed. “I am so glad you chose to come back around.”
Robert has something burning a hole in
his pocket. A symbol of his love for Kristie. An one carat pear
shaped diamond ring that is set in platinum. He is creating best
environment for a spectacular proposal. A day neither of them will
ever forget.
After making it through security they
boarded the plane to fly over the ocean. In anticipation Robert
could not sleep a wink on the plane. Rehearsing in his mind how he
planned it. After months of preparation he found himself in progress
of the moment he had been waiting for. Kristie sleeping next to him
made him grin as she mumbled in her sleep.
Finally they arrived in the airport.
She wiped the sleep out of her eyes and her eye makeup was all over
her face. Yawning they go upstairs and lay in the bed, just to see
what it feels like. “I am going to take a shower,” Kristie stated
“When you get ready I got a surprise
for you.”
“I don't know if I can handle
another surprise.”
“You'll like it don't worry.” As
she cleaned up, put on makeup and got dressed he took a glimpse at
the the ring and thought about what he was going to say. After all
this anticipation he finally got in the car on their way to the
restaurant. The host sat them and the waiter came around. They
ordered a bottle of fine wine and Robert stopped to toast.
“I never believed in love at first
sight until I met you I thought it was bogus romantic illusion.
However now that I have you I do not want to let go.” He got on
one knee and pulled the ring out of his pocket. “Will you marry
me.”
“Of course, I love you Robert,”
she whimpered with tears coming out of her eyes. She embraced him
and gave him a kiss that made them both weak in the knees.
