The sun was already high when Mercedes opened her green eyes and stretched. Her 1200-thread count sheets from Suite Luxury were as soft as silk against her smooth, supple skin.
Sitting up, she could tell by the shadows that stretched across the room and onto the beautiful furnishings from Agostino’s Furniture & Design, it must be well past noon! How could they all
have let her sleep soooo late.
She swung her long elegant legs onto the floor, delighting in the sleek, coolness of the classic cherry wood floor by the Wood Floor Company. Tired as she was, she couldn’t help
but notice the elegance that it brought to the spacious dilly-dallying. She called down for coffee |
to be brought up to her and then hurried to get dressed.
Her beautiful new blouse and pants from Kathryn’s had been freshly pressed and laid out on her sofa beside a beautiful pair of peep-toe pumps from Martini Shoes in Venetian Village, that she had never seen before. Giggling with delight, she guessed whom they must be from.
He was always so thoughtful. She slid her slender feet into them and admired them from all sides in the tall, gilt mirror that stood beside the bed. They were perfect! A naughty little smile played about her lips as she tried to think of the very best way to show her new love, Antonio, just how much
she liked them.
Suddenly there was a knock on her door. |
“Come in,” she called, realizing that it must be
the coffee she’d asked for.
Just as she reached the door, it opened, and there stood her handsome Antonio holding the silver coffee tray and smiling at her devilishly.
“I thought I’d bring this myself. I’ve been missing you.”
“I’ve been missing you too,” she said, blushing ever so slightly. “And I’ve thought of
a very special way to thank you for my beautiful
new shoes.”
Antonio smiled as stepped into the room
and closed the door behind him.
