As Jen and Lucas aimlessly lay in bed, Jen"s hair was being played with by one of Lucas" hands while she was holding on to the other hand since the hand would find itself under her t-s.h.i.+rt, in her panties, or on her a.s.s at any point in time. So she was taking precautions by holding on to it. She studied his fingers and continuously compared them to her"s.
Lucas thought that she was being cute again as he normally did and did not pay much attention to what she was doing. As she was studying his fingers, she noticed that they were much longer than her"s and that his palms were also much larger than hers.
"Is there anything you want to do today?" Lucas asked as he brought her focus back to him by brus.h.i.+ng off the hair on her face with his hand.
"Not really, do you want to take me anywhere?" Jen asked with raised eyebrows. If he wanted to spend his weekend in the house, she would not even blame him because he had been working overtime for most of the week.
"I"ll take you wherever you like" Lucas replied seriously. He could not think of anything he wanted to do that day except for maybe relaxing.
"I wanted to go shopping, do you want to come along?" Jen asked as she lifted her head to look at him.
If he said no then he would be left home and if he said yes he would be dragged around all over the place. He had gone to shop with his mother before and he was always dog tired when they came home. But, as he was looking at her hopeful eyes he could not refuse her so he nodded in agreement.
"I won"t be buying much, and we can go out for lunch afterwards" Jen said happily when he agreed with her.
"Let"s do that" Lucas said with a small smile.
"Then i"ll buy you lunch" Jen said and hoped out of bed and shooed him out of her room so he could go and get ready.
Lucas got out of his room half an hour later wearing a dark green long sleeved t-s.h.i.+rt and a pair of black jeans and a simple pair of sketchers on his feet and went downstairs to the kitchen. He was feeling a bit lazy so he only poured himself a gla.s.s of juice deciding that they might as well have a breakfast date too.
He replied to Ethan"s messages that were trying to confirm that he will still come over to his place for his birthday. Since Jen said she would come along, then he had no reason to say no.
They chatted for a while since Ethan was trying to fish for details on Jen but Lucas was very tight lipped although he was very amused by his friend"s enthusiasm.
After another twenty minutes Jen got out of her room wearing a white romper jumpsuit with a dark green floral pattern and a pair of wedges and a small purse and shades hanging off her neckline. She quickly went downstairs towards the kitchen since she heard sounds coming from there and had a complicated look when she saw Lucas.
"You look beautiful" Lucas said when he noticed her and pulled her to stand between his legs since he was sitting on the bar stool at the kitchen counter.
"You look handsome" Jen said but her face still looked complicated
"Do you mean that?" Lucas joked as he pressed a finger on her furrowed eyebrows.
"Of course" Jen replied.
"Then what was with that look from before" Lucas asked and handed her a gla.s.s of juice.
"It"s nothing" Jen said and took a sip of her juice.
Her face had changed when she saw him because they looked like they had colour coordinated each other, but it seemed like he did not even notice so she decided to just keep quiet about it. There was no need to make a fuss about small things.
"Let"s go have breakfast at the hotel restaurant, then we can go to the mall afterwards okay?" Lucas said as he set the two empty gla.s.ses in the kitchen sink and picked up his pair of shades and led her out of the house.The two of them got into the elevator and stood inside as they waited to get to the level of the restaurant.
Jen was curious about it because ever since she came to the hotel she had never stepped foot into the restaurant. The elevator doors opened to an elaborately decorated restaurant. Jen slipped her hand through Lucas" elbow and the two of them walked inside.
When the waiters saw Lucas they all started busying themselves to get them a good table that would provide him some privacy as he was with his girlfriend.
The pair was led to a table that was secluded but was next to the large window so they had a good view of the city. They sat down and ordered their breakfast and were served some tea as they waited for their meals.
"The service here is good" Jen said as she observed at least two waiters who were paying attention to their table. In reality, not a lot of people would come to the restaurant and would instead order from their rooms so the restaurant was never too busy.
"It is, since it"s never too busy. Most of the people who actually come to restaurant are not people who are staying at the hotel, and normally people don"t think of going to hotels for food. That"s why I wanted to collaborate with you since more people would come up to the restaurant rather than staying in their rooms to order food." Lucas said.
"Oh~ i"ll talk to Alex then we"ll see where to go from there" Jen said finally understanding why Lucas wanted to collaborate with her.
Soon enough their breakfast was served and the pair started eating happily. Jen wanted to go the jewelry store to order some things and see if there was anything interesting there that she could get for Lucas. They quickly finished their breakfast since neither of them wanted to spend the whole day at the mall and even though Jen looks like someone who would shop a lot, she normally goes shopping with a goal in mind so she would at most spend three hours shopping.
The two of them stood up after Lucas told the waiter to add the bill to his tab which he normally pays every month and the two of them made their way out of the restaurant. Before they could go through the doorway, a figure entered the restaurant in a rush and almost knocked Jen over. Lucas had grabbed Jen and pulled her against him as he furiously looked at the perpetrator but his face suddenly turned weird.
"Lucas?" the lady who knocked into them said in a light voice however Lucas did not even respond to her but instead balanced Jen on her feet since she had still been slightly disoriented. The lady thought that he did not remember her so called him again.
"Lucas, it"s me Fiona, don"t you remember me?" Fiona said with a smile. When Jen heard he name she forgot that she almost fell and turned to look at her curiously. Lucas" expression was not very good at that point but he could only sigh.
"I should have just stayed home" he thought to himself.
