“This is…freaking delicious,” she said in a whisper and he smiled. “I think you might have missed your calling.”

He shook his head.

“I love cooking almost as much as I love directing.”

“I just want to know something,” she started before she took another bite. “How come you are the only one who cooks in this villa? Doesn’t this place have help?”

He took a long deep breath.

“Well, to be honest this is not exactly a friend’s place,” he said. “It’s mine.”

She looked at him and dabbed the sides of her mouth.

“Why would you not tell me that?” she asked and he gently pushed a lock of hair behind his ear.

“If I told you that I was going to be housing you on my property for almost two months after just meeting you for a few minutes, would you have agreed?” he asked and she smiled.

“Probably not.”

She took another bite of her food and looked at him.

“Thanks for today,” she said in a soft voice. “It meant the world to me.”

“I would do anything for you, Lara,” he said as he reached out and put his hand on hers. “Absolutely anything.”

His hand lingered on hers for a long time before she tried to pull it away but he held her and leaned forward. He brought his other hand up and held the back of her neck pulling her close. He looked into her eyes for a long minute before he kissed her mouth gently.

“I don’t want you to stop,” she whispered when he pulled away. “But I don’t want the food to get cold either.” She smiled.

“That is what the microwave is for,” he said as he stood up and then took her other hand.

She smiled.

“I love you too,” she said in an exhausted whisper.
