Surprises

Chapter Ten : Romance

An hour later we emerge out of the bedroom ready to go, I really am going to have to stop having showers with those two, it makes every shower take 3 times as long. Half the time in the shower was me complaining that we were taking too long and we weren’t going to have enough time left to shop, the other half was taken up by the twins complaining that we weren’t doing any other than getting washed. Well that’s what showers are for, not other activities.

After making our way down to the parking lot the twins guide me over to their car, my mouth gapes open when I see he car that has flashed its lights saying that it has just been unlocked. It was gorgeous, it was stunning, it was every nice word you could possibly think of, it was a brand new black Escalade, could it get any better. Two opens one of the back doors and ushers me into the back passenger seat, One jumps in behind the wheel and two next to him.

After driving for about 10 minutes we are in a very expensive shopping district, they didn’t do everything else in half’s so way do shopping in half’s either. The shop we finally made it into was very posh and expensive, I felt out of place here, I never go into these shops let alone purchase anything from them. It seemed to have a lot of clothes that were similar to the ones the twins wear, I guess this is one of their regular shops.

“Ah The Virii twins how wonderful to have you here again” I turn round to see a tall beautiful blonde woman approaching us, I feel short and unattractive stood near her, she must be one of the sales assistants. As she approaches the twins and from my point of view gets a little close for comfort I can hear a low growl, when all faces turn to me I realise it was me who made that sound and I turn a brilliant shade of red. I don’t miss the smirks on the twins faces, do they know that sound was me saying get off of my territory? Oh how embarrassing.

While the twins continue to talk to the sales assistant I start to have a look around, I am not happy leaving ‘my’ twins with that woman, I keep seeing her pawing at their arms out of the corner of my eye. I could see a few things that I liked, there was one in particular that I liked, It went right to the floor, had a slit up the right side that finished high on your thigh, it had a halter neck fattener and dipped down low to your cleavage and at the back cut lower back, and the best bit it was silver. This would be perfect, would let enough skin show to see what there could be on offer but enough kept concealed to let the imagination go. This is the one, I pick out my size and place it on the counter. While I was doing all of this I couldn’t hear the words that were being said between the twins and the sales assistant.

After getting back to the apartment I went into the bedroom to start getting ready for you date, thanking god that I didn’t need another shower, two in one day enough for anybody. As I was starting to get changed I heard the gentle sound on feet on the carpet in the bedroom, turning round I saw both twins stood by the doorway with those trade mark smirks on their faces, what were they up to. From behind his back One produced a small back from the store we were earlier, “we got this for you,” simultaneously they took a few steps towards me, and I mirrored their actions ending with us standing just in front of each other.

Grasping the bag that was held out to me and peeking inside, my first thought was typical men, in this case programmes. Inside was a thing that matched the colour of my dress perfectly, sitting at the bottom of the bag were two jewellery boxes, surely they hadn’t, they had spent enough money on the dress let alone buying jewellery as well. One took the bag back after I had taken the boxes out, opening the first one there was a silver necklace with a diamond in the shape of a tear drop, it was stunning, I had never even been this close to anything this beautiful let alone worn it. With the necklace was a pair of diamond earrings that match the shape of the tear drop on the necklace. I opened the other box and inside was a silver bracelet, there was a silver band on part of it that had an emerald in the middle and a diamond on either side of it.

Slightly puzzled by the gems on the bracelet I looked up at the twins hoping they would provide an explanation. They obviously knew what I was silently asking, Two spoke up first “the emerald represents you, with your green eyes, and the diamonds represent us,” “it is our way of saying that we will be by your side and hear to protect you for as long as we are able” One finished off. A lone tear trickled down my cheek, how could two programmes made to be deadly killers be so sweat romantic, putting the gifts down on the cabinet beside me I jump into the twin’s arms, my right arms clinging to Two, my left arm clinging to One. I never wanted to let go, but I knew I had to if we were going to make it to dinner. Getting back onto my feet I release the twins, Two takes my face in his hands and uses his thumb to wipe away the tear on my cheek, and I lean into his hand without realising what I’m doing.
