When Love Takes Over You (3 page)

Mike leaned forward and whispered, "I’ve
always have one big fear that I’ve never mentioned to anyone. I’ve
always worried that if I ever settled down it would cost me my
success, that I’d be too busy and too distracted to really push it
at work. But, strangely enough, I don’t feel like that anymore.
Since I met you I’ve not stopped thinking about you and in some
strange way I don’t quite understand it’s unleashed a wave of
creativity and drive I’ve never had before, I’ve never felt so
unstoppable. And, because of that I’m about to announce the most
adventurous high end property development London has ever seen,
it’s going to position the city as the one to follow."

Just then rain drops started to fall, Mike
opened an umbrella and moved to Susan’s side of the table to
shelter her.

Susan felt a tear in her eye and she sighed
before squeezing Mike’s hand. "That’s wonderful, I’m so happy for
you. And does that mean we’ll make a great power couple?"

Mike moved closer and firmly kissed Susan on
the lips. He whispered in her ear, "I’m in love with you. And, I’m
not letting you get away this time, this time is for keeps."

Mike put his strong arms around her and Susan
softened into his chest, in his warmth she could feel his broad
chest against her body and his warm breath on her cheek. She looked
up into his wonderful deep blue eyes, "I’ve been waiting for this
for so long, this is everything I hoped it would be. It’s so good
to finally feel you."

"You’re beautiful, my angel. This feels just
right, you fit me just right." Mike kissed her again only this time
with all the passion he had held back, with all the longing and all
the wanting and waiting that had finally been satisfied.

Susan sank into his strong, tight embrace and
knew she had found the one.
