Alden
When was the last time I held a girl's hand?
Not for a show or a movie, but a real girl's hand. Not that my on screen partners are unreal but this is different. I look at our hands and felt something; the same warm feeling I felt when I was with mommy Rose.
This feels nice.
"Okay let's see." Katie said, as soon as we cross the street, releasing my hand.
She opened her folded paper and look at it. I can't help but stare at her pouty lips
"We can start with the Colosseum, that is the farthest. It is a thirty minute walk from here, do you want to do that?"
"Huh?" I look at her, caught off guard with her question. I am still staring at her lips.
"Enzo! Focus!" She said, snapping her fingers at my face.
I like how she teases me. There's this level of comfortability she has over me and I like that.
Women are sometimes awkward when they are around me, and most of the time they are just gushing and admiring. This is new, kind of refreshing even. Katie is not treating me different. We are just two strangers enjoying the streets of Rome. I am now liking her suggestion now, nothing specifics about our personal life.
"Still waiting for your answer Enzo!" She said again, both hands on her waist, he left foot tapping. Her face showing signs of impatience.
She is so darn cute!
"I would like to walk if you don't mind, how long is the walk again?" I asked.
"About thirty five minutes." She answered, looking at her phone. "Hey, what about if we take a cab to go there and then we can walk coming back. That way we don't waste a lot of time. It's just a ten minute cab ride."
"Okay, sure. Oh and look, just our luck, there's a taxi coming." I raised my arm to hail the cab and as soon as it stopped in front of us, I opened the door to let Katie in.
I could not help but noticed that Miss Katie here has a nice butt.
"Il Colosseo si prega di Signore." I heard her tell the driver.
"And Enzo, stop staring at my butt!" She said, turning to me.
"Oops! Busted!" I replied, blushing.
"And you are not denying it." She tells me in a huff, shaking her head.
"Hey! I am a man, that's what I do!" I teased.
"Oh my God! You are such a perv!" She exclaimed.
"I am just admiring your beautiful behind Katie. What's wrong with that?" I smirked.
"There's nothing wrong with it, but just be a little bit discreet." She peruses through her bag and produces a facial tissue. "Here." She said, handing it to me.
"What's this for?" I asked, taking the tissue from her.
"Wipe your drool. You're creating a puddle, look!" She teased, wiping my imaginary drool with her hand.
