Chapter 180

I checked the time and agreed. We'd have to be quick and efficient in our shopping and I said a little prayer I'd find what I wanted right away if we were to make it back before six.

I had a lot of fun shopping with Kelsey. I had been looking for a new little black dress that would wow Patrick, but when I slipped on the short red number that made Kels describe me as a "bombshell," there was no doubt it was the one. I wasn't sure where he was taking me or what we were doing, so I grabbed a pair of skinny jeans too, and planned to pick up my new blue cashmere sweater I'd gotten for Christmas that made my eyes pop, to change in to if I needed.

I couldn't resist the black, leather, knee high boots I had seen in the window of a new shoe store on our way out. The best part was they looked fabulous with both the dress and the jeans. Kelsey nodded her approval and we made our way back up the mountain with little time to spare.

Once home I took time to shower and blow out my hair, brushing it till it shined. Lily helped me fix my hair, opting to leave it down. She carefully straightened it and offered suggestions as I meticulously applied my makeup. Dressing, I examined myself in the mirror, feeling particularly sexy and satisfied with the look, though a little nervous, too.

"Are you trying to kill the man?" Lily asked as I stepped out in my new red dress and boots. My black leather jacket completed the look to perfection. “Girl, he is going to have a heart attack when he sees

you in that. You look gorgeous!"

I hugged my sister. "Thanks Lil, and thanks for doing my hair on such short notice, too."

I packed my new outfit, along with the clothes I had borrowed from Patrick that morning, two additional casual outfits, two work outfits, a pair of pajamas, and underwear to leave over at his place. Maybe it was too soon, but I was not going to let what happened this morning ever happen again. In the bathroom I grabbed a spare deodorant and toothbrush to toss in. I could always leave it in the trunk of my car if I chickened out trying to claim my space in his home.
