"You have got to be kidding me" he utters suddenly.

"What?" i ask and follow his line of sight down to the ground floor front desk.

"Angelo? What's wrong" i ask again, concern creeping into me as I put my hand over his on the table.

"Nothing's wrong baby. Just that my sisters are here" he turns to look at me and turns his hand over, so that he grips mine comfortingly.

"Oh....oh! Ok, well, we are done here right?" i ask rhetorically, referring to our meal, then pull my hand free and reach for my purse.

"Yeah, calm down. It's ok, i just wasn't expecting them to show up here" he says softly, when he notices me getting ready to leave.

"No worries" i stand up anyway.

"What are you doing?" He asks, alarmed.

"Leaving, i will see you later, yeah?"

"Marianne, sit down" His eyes narrow at me in an intimidating manner, but i don't cower.

"Sit down" he says again, even more assertively.

"I am not meeting any more of your family." I mutter.

"Sit down! this is not funny" he says under his breath, trying not to bring too much attention to our table, when i look just about ready to leave.

"Thank you for lunch..bye" i whisper and go down the other way from the direction his sisters are now coming to our floor on.

I don't turn around to see the look on Angelo's face, but i can feel his heated gaze as it drills holes into my back.

------- He loved the girl that can't love him.....And now he can't love the girl that loves him -------- ** "Don't worry.." I say, getting up off the chair and walking around him on my way out, my scarf running through his fingers lightly until it slips out. He tilts his head back over the back of his chair in a lazy laid back way, his thumb and fingers now holding his chin, as he watches me leave, still with a small smile on his face. "I won't break your heart." I turn around and say lightly, jokingly, just to tease him. His smile fades. "You won't...because you can't break what's already broken." He says more seriously. ******* Once bitten, twice shy Such is the case for Aaron Bishop, who after a failed marriage, decides that love and all things related, is not worth the trouble. So he moves forward with his future, making sure that no woman is unclear about his intentions about love, or carries any hopes of marriage and happily ever after..that is not in his destiny.

I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent. He was right, I couldn't deny the feelings i had for him.
