8: Surprises
At 6:30 Kally was waiting outside her apartment for Jake to arrive. "Hey, gorgeous," Jake said as he grabbed Kally around her waist. She squealed and jumped in fright.
"Jake! Where did you come from?" scolded Kally.
Jake smirked at her and thought, 'This vampiric stealth is awesome. It's going to be so great when I can turn Kally.' "Let's go, I have something very important to discuss with you," Jake tells her.
"Ok," Kally says as Jake grasped her hand and took her to his car.
"I got us a table at the most expensive place I could find," Jake says as they got into the car.
'Wow, this must be really important to him,' Kally thought.
"That's so lovely, Jake. I can't wait to find out what you have to say to me," Kally replied.
'I must be really underdressed now for such a fancy place. Jake has gone to so much effort for tonight,' Kally thinks to herself.
"Don't worry about your clothes. They are just fine and they look amazing on you," Jake assured her as they drove off.
'That was strange. It was as if he knew what I was thinking,' thought Kally. They drove the rest of the way to the restaurant in silence. Once they arrived at the lobby of the incredibly expensive hotel/restaurant in the middle of the cities richest district the valet took the car to their garage.
"What are your reservations, sir?" asked the matre'd as they walked up to the front doors of the restaurant section.
"Michaels and Lineas," Jake replied.
"Right this way sir, madam," the matre'd said as he showed them to their table.
"Ok, what is this that you wanted to tell me Jake?" asked Kally after sitting down.
"Have patience, babe. It's rather private and I'd rather tell you when we are in our room. I booked one of the luxury suites for us tonight," Jake tells her with a smirk.
"Fine, I can wait a little longer, since you're flattering me so much. Where did you get all the money for this from?" Kally asked him.
"I've been saving money for this. Order your food and then we can talk later after we get to the hotel room," Jake assures her.
"Wow, all this stuff is so incredibly expensive," Kally says in awe.
'Oops I said that out loud. Damn my big mouth,' Kally mourns.
"Order anything you like. I'm paying for it," Jake assures her.
"Well ok," Kally says finally.
After their very expensive and posh meal, Kally said "I have no idea why but a $10 steak would taste better then most of the stuff they have. That fish just tasted strange."
"I think their problems lie with the fact that most people who come here already like it and have grown up on posh gourmet foods," Jake replied.
"That doesn't sound very much like a problem, Jake," Kally says.
"Well, it is for the un-cultured people," Jake says, cracking a sly grin at Kally.
She whipped his arm with her handbag and tells him teasingly "I am not un-cultured, you oaf."
"Whatever you say, babe," Jake says as he bent down and kissed her.
Jake paid the cheque and went up to the hotel clerk desk. The clerk looked up and asked "Checking in?"
"Yes, booking should be under Jake Michaels and Kally Lineas," Jake replied.
"Ok, here is your room key, sir. Enjoy your stay," said the clerk.
"This hotel is so extravagant. Marble floors, wow," Kally says, awed.
"I know it's very opulent. Check out the glass walled elevator," said Jake as they approached the glass elevator.
"This place is so beautiful," Kally says softly as the lift left the bottom floor.
"Wait until you have seen the room I have booked for us," Jake promises.
"Can't wait to see it. What floor is it?" asked Kally
"Floor 56," Jake replies.
Kally looked over at the elevator buttons and saw that 56 was the last number on there "Oh wow, I never thought I would spend the night in a penthouse suite!" exclaimed Kally.
"You deserve it," Jake says, slightly strained, struggling to keep in what he was dying to say to her.
'I wonder what I did to deserve such a wonderful boyfriend,' thought Kally
'God she's so beautiful. I'm falling for her and there's nothing I can, or want to do about it,' thought Jake.
The elevator finally made it to the final floor and both stepped out. Kally's jaw dropped open and she gasped out a soft "Wow," at the sight of an impressive black ebony fountain in the centre of the main room which was floored with black veined white marble.
"Do you like it?" Jake asked as he kissed her neck.
"It's amazing Jake," Kally breaths out.
"Come over here," Jake requested.
"Ok, what's in there?" asked Kally
