Till Dark - Page 84/113

Jordan smiled back and shook her head in amazement. "You are simply ridiculous. Especially if you think that after only a few days of asking the right questions you would know if you wanted to spend the rest of your life with someone." He smiled broadly. "I believe in love at first sight. Your first instinct is always right." Andy said staring at her intently. Jordan's breath caught in her throat and the whole world seemed to be in Andy's eyes. She had never felt this way before. She had always followed her instincts and now was no exception. She knew how Andy felt because she could see it in his eyes, which matched her own feelings. It was a scary thought especially since she had never fallen in love with a person at the first sight. Of course she mused that would not really have been love if it had ever happened before.

Staring into Andy's hypnotizing gaze till she felt like she would burst, she finally tore her gaze from his and played with the drink that someone had set in front of her. "Tell me what you are thinking." Jordan glanced at him before she answered. "I was just thinking how strange it is that I like you when I barely know you." She glanced back down at her drink. "Why do you find it strange? I feel like we were meant to be together. You are the type of woman I have waited for all my life." Jordan looked up at Andy in shock. For a moment all she could do was stare at him. "Apparently you have never been in love with someone." He leaned back and crossed his arms over his chest. "Of course I have loved other women but they have never made me feel as you do." She stared at him a long moment. "And just how do I make you feel?" she asked swallowing hard. Andy looked deeply into her eyes before finally answering her. "I can't really explain it there's just something magical about you. You have the face of an angel and the will as strong as a rock. There's an ethereal beauty about you that… "His voice trailed off. "I just know that I must be with you because I will never find another like you." She cocked her head to one side. "Do you know how many times I've been told those very same lines? All my life I heard that and I think you are like the rest you want what you can't have." He leaned back in her seat folding his arms. "Come with me to Chicago to a fund raiser dinner and you will see your competition." Her eyebrows shot up. "My competition! How dare you insult me in such a manner? I cannot believe I agreed to have dinner with you. Excuse me please I have to powder my nose." Jordan jumped from her seat wincing in pain at the quick movement, before Andy could stop her and headed for a hall at the other side of the room. She had seen guests walk in and out of all evening. Without even paying attention Jordan flung open the door and marched in. Andy had watched her walk right into trouble and had tried to call out to her but she was either ignoring him or could not hear over the loud music.
