Day 53 - Saturday, 5 March 2005
Jack opens his mobile phone and dials the familiar number, Kate picks up immediately “Hey stranger, are you done yet?”, he answers “Not quite. It’s been one of those days, you know…”, and she does know.
Since she first moved in she’s quite used to Jack telling her about his craziest days, it helps him to tell her this stuff, and she likes to be involved.
“That’s ok. Aaron is still sleeping, do you want me to fix you something nice?” she asks, already wondering what the hell she can make with her limited cooking skills; “No, I think we can manage to go out, I won’t be that late, just be ready ok?”.
“I will. Later, Jack” she says before hanging up. He tries to focus on the work that is left before he can leave, but images of Kate in a pretty fine dress keep filling his mind.
Eventually his shift ends and he gets ready to pick them up, still not sure what their destination is gotta be, maybe Kate will have some ideas.
He gets in the car and he’s home in no time, he gets out to call them and when Kate opens the door his heart skips a bit, she’s breath taking, he’s literally speechless.
“Wow, that nice?” she teases, well aware of the effect that dress would have had on Jack, he slowly swallows, trying to recompose himself and he manages to say “That would be an understatement”.
She plants a nice kiss on his lips, before taking his hands and walk to the car; Jack comes back to pick Aaron from his stroller and he puts him into the car.
Before turning the car on, Jack puts an hand on Kate’s tight, just to let her know how much he appreciate the dress and how much he’ll appreciate taking it off her when they get back.
