The rest of Jeremy's weekend passed by quickly. He spent most of his time at the gym. Now it's Monday. Jeremy woke up extra early just so he could get ready.

He couldn't help but be anxious when it came to Elizabella. He tried on several different suits but finally decided on one. He dressed himself in a gray checkered suit with a plain white dress shirt underneath. He topped it off with a black and white checkered tie. He combed his hair back from his face. He sprayed himself with Armani Code; it was his favorite.

He looked himself over his full length mirror and was very pleased with what he saw. He hoped Elizabella would feel the same. He paced around his living room for another 15 minutes before he decided it was a good time to leave.

He stopped at the usual coffee place where him and Zachery always go. When he walked into the coffee shop the young girl behind the counter was surprised. "Oh! Mr. Gage you are early today. Let me get your coffee now." She said in a rush before grabbing a coffee cup.

"Thank you, but I also need another coffee with cream and sugar." He said politely while leaning against the counter. She looked puzzled for a moment. "But Mr. Montone likes his coffee black." She added.

Jeremy nodded. "Yeah he does, but this coffee is not for him." Jeremy said slowly while raising an eyebrow at her. She looked embarrassed now as her cheeks were turning a light pink. "Oh, I'm sorry. I just thought that it was for him considering you only ever come in with him." She added sheepishly.

Jeremy let out a light chuckle and nodded. He noticed they had breakfast sandwiches and thought it would be good to get Elizabella one. "Also let me get one of those sandwiches" He said while pointing to them. She smiled. "Sure thing Mr. Gage."

After he paid for his stuff he left and made his was over to Elizabella's place. When he pulled up to her place she wasn't outside yet so he pulled out his phone to call her. "Hey! Don't worry I'm coming down now!" She sang into the phone before he could even speak. "OK" He said and chuckling while hanging up the phone.

She came down after another minute. Jeremy was stunned by the way she looked. She was wearing a cream colored dress that came down to the middle of her thighs. It hugged her body and showed off her beautiful curves. She was wearing black tights and cream colored heels that matched her dress.

She had her hair up in a neat bun but still had a few curls down around her face. He had to look away before she could notice him gawking at her. She slipped into the car in the passenger side. "Good morning" She said sweetly. The sweet smell of her was filling his nostrils and he needed to get grip on himself before his instincts took over.

He is normally more in control when he is around her but right now she caught him while his guard was down and he needed to get it back up, quickly. He rolled down the window and tried breathing through his mouth and not his nose which helped a little.  

"Morning, you look lovely." He said sweetly after a few seconds of calming himself. She didn't seem to notice his weird behavior which was good. "So...are we going to go?" She said with an amused tone. Jeremy realized he was just awkwardly sitting there and he couldn't stop the blush of embarrassment that showed on his cheeks.

"Oh..um.. yeah. Sorry." He rushed out while starting the car and driving off. "I got you a coffee and a sandwich." He stated while still keeping his eyes on the road. "Oh thank you, which coffee is mine?" He pointed to the one that was hers in the cup holder. She grabbed it and took a small sip. "Sorry, I wasn't sure how you took your coffee so I just winged it." He added before she could speak.
