Katrina was moving slower than normal, her heels and the dress causing her equal difficulty. But she pressed on and eventually made it to the lobby of her building.
Stepping our of the elevator, she turned and began the trek to the front doors
And that's when she saw him.
Kylan, Standing near the fireplace. Wearing a tuxedo that completely took her breath away.
His eyes shifted to hers at her approach, and she was surprised when he wasn't able to hide his initial reaction to seeing her. She watched as his roamed her figure and then over her face. His mouth was slightly agape and for another moment, he just stared at her She grew steadily more self-conscious and cleared her throat, "Uh, hi. You look. You look great, Kylan," she told him honestly.
Her eyes traveled his figure as well, taking in the black bowtie that adorned his neck, and the way that his hair was perfectly combed around his head. He also smelled wonderful, she noticed. A mixture of soap, pine, and mint, and her heart fluttered slightly in her chest. Kylan licked his lips and then closed his mouth. "Sit still," he mitructed, his voice low and restrained.
She watched him curiously as he pulled a small box from within the pocket of his tuxedo pants. He opened it and she gaped. A matching bracelet and necklace were nestled in black velvet. They were both made entirely of diamonds, sparkling brilliantly in the lighting of the lobby
"Kylan." She breathed out in disbelief. "I can't possibly accept these she told him, completely serious
Kylan rolled his eyes at her words. "Don't be ridiculous, Kate. Now sit still, as I said."
He pulled out the bracelet first, reaching for her wrist and clasping it in place easily. He then removed the necklace and put the empty box back in his pocket. He stepped forward then, suddenly very close to her, and moved her hair out of the way.
Instead of asking for her to turn around, he undid the necklace and put it around her neck, moving even closer to her, and then securing it in place. with expert fingertips. His eyes never left hers, not for a single second
Those same fingertips brushed either side of her neck as he looked down at the necklace that now adorned it.
"There" he mumbled. His eyes were back on hers as he reached a hand up and suddenly brushed the side of her face with the back of his fingers.
She watched him, mesmerized by the way he was handling her. He then seemed to come back into himself and cleared his throat, stepping away from her. She blinked a few times, oddly missing his proximity to her.
He held an arm out to her and she took hold of it, grateful for the steadiness it gave her. She felt like an impostor in her dress and now the jewelry too, all while Kylan guided her out of her building.
She was surprised to see a limousine in place of the usual SUV she was used to being driven around in. She was happy that Oscar was still the one driving, though.
She gave him a grin as soon as she saw him, and he smiled back at her with equal happiness.
"You look gorgeous, Kate, Oscar told her, opening the door for her
She blushed at his words. "Thank you, Oscar," she said quietly.
Kylan had to help her in the car, the fluffiness of the skirt of her dress causing a momentary setback. and Kylan slid in after her.
finally, she sat in the backseat of the limo,
The drive to the venue was quiet, with Kylan glancing at her every now and then. She was far too nervous to talk to him. She was intimidated, to be honest. Far more intimidated than she usually was. This would be the most public date she and Kylan had yet to be on She would be surrounded by people she knew, and several others that she didn't.
She tried her best to approach the coming ball from a PR perspective, reminding herself how good this would be for Ross Corp. It only helped quell her nerves a little bot, and her heart was thundering agam by the time Oscar pulled up to an expansive mansion on the outskirts of the city.
She waited for Kylan and Oscar to both help her out of the car, her clutch and mask in hand. She was freezing in her gown, having chosen to forego a shawl or jacket of any kind in favor of fashion.
Kylan stepped over to her and gently took her mask out of her hand.
