silence. Gia played the game Candy Crush Saga on her cell phone, her secret addiction.
     
    They pulled onto a long road about a half hour later. Then they turned down another path and eventually the car pulled onto a long driveway.
    Brad lived in a frigging mansion. She was in awe. It was so beautiful. It actually looked historic but modern at the same time.
     
    He was waiting at the front door. She felt like her chin must have been on the ground. He had on navy blue and gray striped swimming trunks that were hanging low on his hips and a gray Gap tank top that showed off his chiseled muscles. Her body was betraying her at that moment, and she hadn’t even moved out of the car yet. Brad walked over to the car and opened the door for her, while Gary retrieved her bags from the trunk.
     
    Brad was staring at her when she got out of the car. “If you look this good just to swim in my pool, I can’t even imagine what you would look like if we were swimming on a private island. Are you blushing a little there Giavonna?”
     
    Her face was turning different shades of red and pink. He knew how to make her blush, which was very hard to do. “Oh Brad, stop flirting and give me a tour of this magnificent house.”
     
    He grabbed her hand and escorted her into his home. The inside was even more alluring than she could have imagined. There were several guest bedrooms, along with the master suite, which made her heart race when they were alone together in there for the tour. There were two living rooms, a main dining hall, and a small informal dining room. The kitchen looked like something out of a five star restaurant. She could only dream of cooking in a kitchen like that. Brad showed her the rest of the house which consisted of the pool, a tennis court, basketball court, theater and a six-car garage. Gia felt like she was on an episode of MTV Cribs.
     
    Gary placed Gia’s bags on the sofa in the living room. He advised Brad to call him when he was ready for him to come back and drive Gia back home. They spoke in the hallway for a few moments and then Gary left.
     
    “Gary’s going home for the evening. I told him that I could drive you home when you’re ready. Let’s go out back to the pool. I have the food set up and ready for us to eat.”
     
    The table was set with plates and silverware. He had made Grilled chicken, grilled vegetables and baked potatoes, which were already on plates and wrapped up with plastic. He also had a bottle of wine on ice and candles lit in the center of the table.
     
    Brad’s so perfect. A guy that can cook is a keeper. The fact that he’s hot too, is an added bonus.
     
    “You thought of everything,” remarked Gia in surprise.
     
    They sat down at the table to eat and talk. Brad asked about Gia’s relationship with her sister. He also asked about her parents and family life. The conversation was flowing nicely. He divulged information about his family life and his father’s death. He also mentioned how his mother remarried a doctor from the hospital she worked at. He felt like he didn’t need to hold back any information from her.
     
    After they cleaned up the dishes, they decided to sit by the edge of the pool to finish their conversation. They brought their wine with them. It was getting so hot and muggy out. Gia decided she was going to take a dip in the pool while Brad was still sitting on the edge. She swam over to where he was at. He reached down and playfully pulled her hair, while trying to pull her towards him with his feet.
     
    He couldn’t take it anymore, so he decided to jump in the pool because the vision in front of him was causing a reaction down below. He reached out to her, their wet bodies touching.
     
    “I don’t know how much more I can take, looking at you in that bikini. You make me so hard, I feel like I am going to burst.”
    With that being said, Brad kissed Gia with an eagerness that he couldn’t control. She wanted it just as bad as he did. She
