True Love Waits

Sheffield was amused by Evelyn's joke. "Don't bother. My skin is not that thick; in fact, it's pretty soft. Here, kiss me on the cheek and you will know."

He drew closer to her.

Staring at his handsome side face, Evelyn reached out her hand and pinched it hard.

Sheffield groaned in pain. "Ow, Evelyn! Babe, show some mercy. Please..."

"Shut up!" Evelyn said angrily.

He immediately shut his mouth.

With a snort, Evelyn let go of him and walked towards the bathroom. "One more word and I'll kick you out."

Gazing at her proud back, Sheffield asked with his hands in his pockets, "Do you really have the heart to do that to me?"

"I do," she replied coldly.

The doctor chose to keep his silence for the moment, in case she did drive him away.

Several evening dresses were soon delivered to her room. Sheffield picked out a red conservative dress for her.

When Evelyn walked out of the bathroom, in nothing but a bath towel, she frowned at the dress he had chosen. "I don't want red." "Why not?" He thought she would look stunning in it.

"No reason. Choose another one." Evelyn hadn't washed her hair; her soft long curls hung down loosely, adding to her allure.

Desire filled Sheffield's eyes as he stared at her. How much he wanted to take her right then! But knowing that she was still angry, he swallowed the desire and picked another dress for her. "How about this black one?"

Evelyn cast a sideways glance at the dress and commented, "Fine. You may leave now."

"Eve, let me stay. I will do anything for you," he said with a cheeky grin as he sat down on the bed.
