Chapter 48. Date

Sherry’s POV

“He is already inside!” I bluntly said, taking the pot off the stove.

“Already inside huh?”

My words seemed to stimulate him. He looked at me with playfulness in his eyes. As if encouraging me to tease him on.

I couldn’t help but giggle as I saw Ryan go and sit on the couch after that. Then he began looking at me with a mixture of curiosity and mischief. I decided to have a little fun with him, so I walked up to him and leaned in close, making sure he could smell my perfume, pretending to fetch an ingredient that I didn’t even need in my cooking.

“What’s up, Ryan?” I asked, batting my eyelashes. “You seem a little tense.”

Ryan rolled his eyes. “Don’t start with me, Sherry. I know you’re up to something.”

I grinned. “Me? Up to something? Whatever do you mean?” I twirled a strand of my hair around my finger and leaned in even closer. “Let’s just say I have a little something planned for tonight and I am so excited.”
