My Dream pt 3

I stopped her by placing my finger over her lips and said, "Not another word. All I want you to do is look at yourself in the mirror so you can see how beautiful they look on you."

Sydney walked over to the mirror and looked at herself. I let her look for a few minutes before saying, "We should be going or we'll be late."

Sydney grabbed her clutch purse before taking my arm and saying, "This is really too much but you are the most loving man I ever met. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Sydney and I walked out to my truck where I helped her get in. It was times like these I wish I got a car. The truck was beautiful on the inside and it was immaculate on the out side but it was hard for Sydney to climb in when she was wearing a tight skirt.

I had memorized the directions to the Dean's house from the invitation. I was sure I was following them correctly but in the end I feared that I had taken a wrong turn till I her Sydney say, "This is where Dean Mitchell lives. His house us just up ahead." I felt relief till Sydney asked, "Philip what are we doing here?"

I parked the truck on the street outside the house before turning to Sydney. I took her hand in mine and said, "Wednesday Lacy Mitchell came to my office and she basically told me that we had to come tonight. You see she was very upset that we hadn't come before and we didn't bother to call to say we weren't coming. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get upset over it. We're just here for cocktails and dinner."

Sydney didn't look at me before she said, "You know what's going to happen after dinner don't you?"

I kissed her hand and said, "Like I said we're just here for dinner and cocktails we don't have to stay unless we want to. Do you think you might want to stay?"

I really expected Sydney to immediately say she didn't want to stay but what I heard was, "I'll stay if that's what you want."
