Chapter Three
Excitement ran through Victoria. After what seemed like an eternity, she heard the Book Café door open. The footsteps got closer, and Noah came into view.
“Noah,” she whispered, and he looked into the alley. He quickly stepped in, and walked up to her. Victoria gave him a flirtatious smile. “Hey there.”
“Hey beautiful,” he replied, returning her smile. “So, what brings you way out here?”
“Well… I just wanted to see if there were any hot guys in Harmony. But, sadly, I didn’t find any, so I guess you’ll have to do.”
“Oh really. You don’t think that I’m hot and sexy?”
“Mmmm… maybe a bit. But you are defiantly the best thing this town has to offer. Then again, that doesn’t say much.”
“Well, you know what. You’re not all that either.”
“Oh really? Well, I guess we’ll both have to make do with what we have.”
“Agreed,” Noah said, and he moved in for a deep kiss.
“For what you lack in looks, Noah, you most defiantly make up for in technique,” Victoria said when they broke apart.
“Thank you. And may I add that it is a pleasure to try out my great technique on someone who is my equal in kissing.”
“We really should do this more often.” Victoria threw her arms around Noah’s neck, and kissed him again.
About five minutes later, they finally came up for air (LOL).
“We should do something,” Noah said.
“Like what?”
“I don’t know. But I think that a date is needed. When are you free.”
“Well, right now works for me. What about you?”
“I’ll have to tell my sister that I’m leaving, but other then that I’m good.”
“Why don’t you do that. Let’s go to a movie.”
“Sounds great.” Noah started walking back to the street.
“Noah!”
“Yes.”
“Ummm… I really don’t know how to properly say this. Don’t take this the wrong way, but I think we should try to be a little…”
“Discreet?”
“Yeah. It’s just that my family probably wouldn’t be our biggest supporters. I know Mother wasn’t to thrilled, and my father and grandfather would be worse.”
“Yeah, Ivy really didn’t look happy last night. My mom would be okay with it, probably, but I don’t think that Dad would. He seems to be one of those people who doesn’t like your family. No offense.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve had to put up with that for all my life. So, how about I meet you at the movie theater?”
“Sure, I’ll see you there.”
Victoria waited for about a minute after Noah left before she went back onto the street. Once again there was no one on that could have seen her. ‘Quaint little town,’ she thought. ‘No one if ever around to catch you. I could get used to this.’
She got to the cinema, and bought a ticket for the next movie. She didn’t pay attention to the title, there were all the same to her. About five minutes later Noah walked in, and went right by her. Casually, she followed. They both entered theater number four. Noah went right to the back of the dark room, and went right to the middle. Victoria went and sat down a few seats away, and hoped that no one else came to the back row.
Her prayers were answered, and as the lights turned off, she moved over to the seat right beside Noah. He leaned over, and lightly kissed her lips, and then the first preview started.
After about the tenth preview, the couple had stopped watching the screen, and were intent on each other. They didn’t even notice when the movie started.
It was a shock to both of them when the movie ended, and the lights turned back on. They quickly moved away from each other, and casually straightened themselves up, and got up. Victoria passed in front of Noah, and she whispered quietly in his ear.
“I’ll be waiting in the silver Mercedes.”
She got into her car, and sat there. A little later, Noah came out the door, and walked up to the vehicle. He opened the passenger door and got in.
“Nice car you got here,” he said as she started the engine, and began to drive.
“Thank you. Daddy gave it to me as a present when I turned twenty. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to use it much, because I was off touring Europe, and I can’t stand driving in the countries that you drive on the left side of the road.”
“Wow, you’ve certainly been doing a lot. I mean, with traveling and school and all that.”
“Yeah, the lifestyle of the rich and famous. It has some very nice perks!”
“So, where are we going?”
“To one of the other great perks. Home.”
“The Crane Mansion? Cool, I’ve always wanted to be in that place.”
“Well, I’m not sure if you can actually go in. I mean, that would make this thing pretty obvious, don’t you think? I was actually planning on going for a walk through the lovely, and private, Crane garden. Maybe later I’ll show you the tree that you can climb up to get into my room,” Victoria gave Noah a sly, seductive smile.
“I’ll be counting the days.” They both laughed.
The car neared the gates, which opened immediately. Victoria drove her car up to the mansion, and she and Noah got out. A man came up to them.
“Ms. Crane, do you want your car put away in the garage?”
“Yes, thank you Pierre.” She walked behind the car, and into the garden, with Noah on her heals.
“Well, here we are. Do you want the grand tour?”
“I’ll pass. Flowers aren’t really my thing.”
“Oh, what is your thing?”
“You.”
Victoria smiled.
