 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Esme was so confident that her dad was going to see things their way and it seeped off onto him. He nodded. Mr Darcy did like him. He was not at all the intimidating man Olly thought he was. "Summer can't get here quickly enough for me,'' was his response but then he looked inquiringly at Esme. "You'll miss your friends a lot, no doubt.'' He hadn't anyone to miss that much since he used to keep to himself but Esme was popular he was sure.
Following his girlfriend's lead, he too began eating. The cheesecake was yummy and one of the best he had ever had. Oliver smiled, pleased that Esme was so eager. "We can definitely do all of that. Plus we can visit some other places if you'd like.'' With working a part time job, he was able to save up on his own. Sure, he could ask his dad for money but who wanted to flaunt their riches? Not this young man.
He continued eating. "What else do you want to do? We've got the rest of the day for ourselves.'' And he was looking forward to this! |
