Chapter 819 - Leaving the resort (1/2)

~ Golden Ocean Resort ~

8:57 AM

Ellie is getting out of her resort suite, wheeling a suitcase and balancing one large bag on top of it while walking backwards. She regretted for keeping so many things and not leaving them with her assistants.

As she stepped into the hallway, Ellie's foot bumped into something and she got startled.

Ellie saw that she bumped into one of the largest bouquets of red roses she ever saw.

She kept her suitcase upright and placed the oversized bag next to it before reaching for the flowers. They look fresh… and there is a card…

There is not much on the card. An address, and time: 2:15 PM

One additional line: 'Wear red shoes, comfortable.'

Signed: 'Your boyfriend'

Ellie was not sure what her expression was, but she knew that all the emotions she felt are warm and fuzzy ones.

That line 'your boyfriend' made her lips form a smile so wide that her face ached.

She is not sure how long she was staring at that card before her phone pulled her out of her daze. The cab driver was calling to remind her that he is waiting outside.

Ellie sighed. Now on top of these bags she needs to carry flowers as well, but she does not mind… her morning started well. If it's too much to carry, she can call resort staff member to help her out. After few seconds of balancing and shifting weight, she got everything secured and steady and continued her trip toward the elevators.

On the way down the hallway, her eyes moved toward the door… Jasper's room. She wondered if he is inside. Maybe she should knock and check… Ellie stopped herself. The thought of that kiss from last night made her heart race, and she can still feel that rhythmic movement of his thumb lingering at the edge of her jaw. And he tastes so good… Oh, God! She is pretty sure that she blushed.

Ellie reminded herself to keep on moving. She has things to do, and they will see each other in few hours. A date! Ah… 2:15 PM seems so far away…
