Feb 20th approx.
*yes just got home from my run, how are you?*
A minute later my phone rings. I look that its Jon and smile, “Hey Jon, you not texting is confusing me.”
“Sorry babe but I just got back into Chicago and I was hoping I could steal you and go out for dinner with you. I’ve missed you.”
I look down at what I’m wearing and cringe, I’m just in yoga pants and a sweatshirt.
“I need about an hour I just got done running.” I knew I’d already showered but I have to straighten my hair again because I washed it in the shower.
“Ok babe I’m still on the plane we haven’t even gotten to a gate yet so that should work. I’ll check into the hotel before I come get you.” He was so happy she said yes he just wanted to kiss her. Hopefully when he told her that he was back in Chicago to live she’d give him a kiss or a few. That body of hers was something he couldn’t wait to get familiar with. Hopefully now that he was back to Chicago he’d have the time to do that.
While Jon gets off the plane and starts to get through the city to his hotel. He has his driver stop at a 7/11 so he can pick up water and condoms, just in case he remembers I told him no glove no love. He can’t believe he’s forced back to wearing condoms after 30 yrs. She better be worth it he thought as he got back in the car.
I ran into the bathroom and plugged in the ceramic hair straightener before running to the bedroom to find an outfit. “Damn it” only an hour wasn’t going to leave me much time to get my hair straight. I realize that when I met him I had my hair straight so now I feel like I need to keep it straight until I let him know that’s not my real hair type. I find the perfect outfit for a Surprise Date Night. After doing that I run back into the bathroom and start on my hair. Luckily for me it decides to cooperate and its straight and looking sleek in 35 minutes. I get a big curling iron out and plug that in after unplugging the flat iron. I put some light makeup on with some decent eyeliner and then run into the bedroom still with 20 minutes to spare. I pull on some cute pair of satiny panties and a matching bra, then I put on the outfit I had picked out before walking back into the bathroom to put a few loose curls in my hair. Unplugging the curling iron I return to the bedroom for deodorant and some perfume. I slide my feet into the heals and grab my brown purse to change my items to. Just as I get the last thing put in my purse the doorman rings up to advise me that I have a guest. I tell him to allow him to the lobby I’m just jumping into the elevator. Perfect timing.
“Sir please come in and wait here in the lobby, the tenant is on her way down.”
Jon moves to a chair in the lobby to wait still wondering why he can’t see my place. Regardless of why, he finds it a bit quirky and he’ll have to ask me about it soon. He stands up as soon as he see’s me come off the elevator. “Wow honey you are a site for sore eyes.” He walks over and gives me a hug. I smile at his touch, he looks and smells amazing. “Hi Jon, how’s Jesse doing?”
He smiled at my question. “Thanks for asking honey, he’s fine, surgery and physical therapy are all complete and he’s back to school.” He took my hand and lead me outside to a car. When we get inside he wants to kiss me so damn bad but he’s only kissed me once and that was month’s ago so he has to behave himself.
“So have you ever been to the Sweetwater Tavern and Grille?” He asked.
“NO I haven’t actually but I hear its great.”
“Good because that’s where we’re going tonight. My driver says its fantastic. Casual but yet softly lit so we can talk and not get noticed hopefully. So how’s the job? What time do you have to be in tomorrow?” He asked nervously.
I smile and tell him about my job so far and that I chose 830 to be in to try to avoid a little of the rush hour commute. I also tell him I’m a little bummed because the dress code is so relaxed, I have tons of business clothes but I could walk in like I’m dressed now and it would be perfectly fine.
“Think of how much you stand out then dressing all hot because let me tell you, you look amazing babe.” He smiled and gave my hand a squeeze. We get to the restaurant and immediately are seated off to a table by ourselves.
“Jon did you do something naughty? They put us in a corner.” I laugh.
“I’m not sure if I believe you’re completely innocent, you’ve got a glint in your eye.” I smile back at him.
Once seated he told me, “I have a glint in my eye because I’m out to dinner with you. Thank you for joining me on such short notice.”
“I’ve missed you so thank you for inviting me. And thank you for the flowers that really made me smile today.”
“Good. I wonder if my other news will make you smile.”
I put my glass of water down, “And what’s that?”
Jon took my hand and smiled, “I’m back to live here again not just a visit this time.”
“And where are you going to live?” I ask him smiling that he’s staying.
“From that answer I bet not with you.” He laughed. “No I’m going to look around and buy a place, even when the band is working, I’m in Chicago enough that it would pay off. Do you own or rent your place?”
“I rent this place and own my WI house.”
That night goes so well that we have 3 more dates in the next 2 weeks, all of which I’m still wearing my hair straight scared that he’ll reject the unruly curls. The following Saturday we decide to go running and my alarm doesn’t go off so when my doorman calls me to tell me Jon’s there I don’t have time to straighten my hair. I run my hands through it and pull it back into a ponytail and hope for the best.
Once I see him downstairs he looks at me, “Ah you’ve been hiding your curls from me.” He smiles before kissing me. Kissing Jon I do have to say is one of my all time favorite past times. But because we’re supposed to be working out I can’t spend my morning doing that. “Hey honey, sorry I literally woke up like when he called you up. My alarm must be on strike. Yes curls are the real me.”
“I love it, curly hair says play with me it won’t matter I’m not prissy.” He smirked. I smile at that and we hand Jon’s gym bag to the doorman to hold until we come back. He obviously brought a change of clothes so we can do something after. I had gone out with some friends from my past life the night before and tied one on, this workout is much needed.
We take off towards Millenium Park and cross it to head to the lake. I love being able to run now and not hurt nearly as bad. My knees still don’t enjoy it but having lost the extra weight it’s getting easier and easier to do this every other day.
We don’t go very far, I’ve told Jon I’m only up to 4 miles and I’m not as fast as he probably is so if he wants to continue he can. He tells me of course that he doesn’t want to run without me, he goes every day of the week so when he runs with me he can run at my speed and distance. Once we get back to my place I don’t stop him from coming upstairs to my place finally.
“So all I had to do to get an invite to your home is go for a run with you?” He jokes.
“Nope you had to prove your worth and quite honestly you’ve been around a while in my life. Almost 6 months total.”
“Yeah but that doesn’t really count because I was in Jersey so lets say a good month at least.”
“OK yes, and in that month you haven’t scared me by being psycho or stalkerish so I think its ok to let you see where I live now.”
“Good because the kissing I want to do to you shouldn’t be done in public.” He pulls me close kissing me deep but patting me on the ass. I enjoy that and melt into him. After massaging my mouth with his tongue he pulls back, licking over my bottom lip. “Ok sexy, where can I shower, preferably a cold one.”
I laughed, “Yeah there’s a 2nd bathroom right there.” I pointed to the bathroom and walked towards mine. It doesn’t take either of us very long to shower and change, for me its nice because all I have to do is wash my hair and put a little product in it and I’m ready. Its nice to not have to straighten it first.
After the run I walk out dressed casually in jeans, a tan sweater and a white tank underneath. My feet are in wedge style shoes but if we’re going to stay at my place they’ll be coming off shortly. Once I walk into the living room I see Jon standing near the windows so I walk over to him and wrap my arms around him from behind. “You like the view Jon?” I ask.
He turns around and wraps his arms around me tightly. “Yeah now I do.” Then he hooks his fingers together on the small of my back. “You know this is about as casual of clothes I’ve ever seen you in except for running. Do you not do a t-shirt and jeans?”
“Not unless its a Jovi shirt.” I smirk at him.
“Hey that might be a little awkward kissing someone that’s wearing my face on her chest.”
I smile at him, “you’ll be happy to know most of my Bon Jovi shirts don’t have your face on them. Most of mine are the ones with the tour dates on the back so they have the logo or the heart and dagger on them.”
“Well thats good I guess, do you not like my face?” He asked.
“Nice Jonny but yes I love your face just not on my shirts, I get the shirts cos I liked the show and the band does the show not just you.”
“Thank you.” He kissed me gently.
“For what?”
“For knowing the difference. You’d be surprised how many people meet me and call me Bon Jovi like I’m in the whole band.”
“No you’re just the focal point, I do have to ask though, this is something I’ve wanted to know since it all went down, can I ask you one work thing and then drop it?”
“Babe you’re my girlfriend, it gives you pretty much free reign to ask me anything.”
Nice date! Ask away, I'm really curious.
