Stef's: POV
Lena and I just arrived at the restaurant and the valet
Came over to the car and opened up the door for Lena
I handed him the keys. I took Lena's hand and we headed inside, l went to the counter to let the hostess know that we have a reservation for Foster Adams, she pulled out two menus and we followed her to a secluded area so we wouldn't be disturbed, your waitress Jennifer will be with you momentarily. She said as she laid down our menus down, l took out Lena's chair out for her. I waited for her to take her seat first before I sat down, she scanned over the wine selections. It's a nice night out l said to Lena
It is Lena replies, baby l want us to enjoy ourselves this evening. I promise to do better with communicating
I know l haven't done right by you, l just need you to be patient with me. I know with you by my side Stef states
I know your struggling sweetheart, l want you to let in
And not try to push me away like you did. You really hurt my feelings by what you said. Your gonna have to learn to talk to me about what your feeling l don't give a damn if it's about the weather or this marriage won't work, Lena stated. Jennifer came over to take our drink order Lena ordered a glass of white wine and l went with the Merlot
I'm still trying to decide what I want for dinner. Lena orders some appetizers which was mozzarella sticks
I'll have your drinks right out soon Jennifer tells us,
We just sat in our seats listening to the music playing in the background. Jennifer brought over our drinks
Lena swirl her glass around before taking a sip,of her wine mmm. Honey how is it Stef asks her wife
It's smooth and a little sweet Lena replies, Lena knows all about the different types of wines. And which one goes well with each meal, l reached down in my pocket and pulled out a black velvet box and placed it on the table in front of Lena. Stephanie what is this she asked, just a little something to make up for the way I treated you recently
I picked it up from Pandora jewelry store, l want us to have more date nights again like we use to do. Stef inquired. I think I'll like that Lena said as she opened up the box and saw the purple amethyst tear drop necklace and ring set. Stef this is beautiful thank you babe but you didn't have to buy me anything to prove that your devoted to me, l appreciate the meaning behind the romantic sentiment Lena replied. She places the box in her bag. I was talking to your dad before you guys came home, he suggested we planned a weekend away some where nice just the two of us without the kids. Stef tells Lena, you know it's been awhile since I been at tasty treats
I think l should make an appearance to check up on things
I know I made Emory the manger of the bakery, Lena explains. Sweetie you don't owe me anything explanation
I know how much that place means to you and you wanna make sure everyone is doing their share, trust me l understand. I still go into my office every other day to see if I have any new clients, but this past week l only gotten too so far. I been placing advertisement in the new York times, the wall street journal l know their are people out there need my services. I often wonder what if l stayed at NYPD, Stef states. I don't know and I don't wanna think what could have happened to you, Lena reached across the table and squeezed Stef's hand. I don't wanna lose what we built so far, if I lose you for nothing or nobody
Lena speaks from the heart. Their waitress Jennifer brings over there appetizers, have you decided on what you wanted to order yet Jennifer asked the women. I'm gonna start off with a garden salad, and then for my main course
I'll take the pink wild Alaska baked salmon asparagus and the red baked potato Lena stated. I think l will the new York strip steak well done, steam broccoli along with the mashed potatoes Stef says. Jennifer wrote down their orders, then she leaves to go put their orders in Stef and I continue talking. Until l felt this sense of relief wash over me letting me know everything will be alright between us
These last few days help me realize how much I miss being in my wife's company. I missed her smile
The way she kept staring at me was sending shock waves straight through my core, l could feel the wetness between my legs. I couldn't wait to taste her and moan her name out, l was so caught up in my own thoughts that l didn't hear Stef say something. I'm sorry honey what?
I was saying we need a family vacation she says to me
Do you have a place in mind you know it needs to be kid friendly Lena States, Jennifer brought over our dinner
As Stef was about to dig into her food. Babe don't eat that Lena said, why Stef asks me look at the little pieces of glass in your mash potatoes Lena whispers. Stef tries to get Jennifer's attention, yes is everything okay Jennifer Stated. Can you please bring over new plates Lena tells the waitress, Lena looks at Jennifer for a minute and studies her body language.
