Matteo stepped out of the elevator and onto the rooftop bar, his heart racing at the thought of seeing Sherry again. It had been years since they last spoke, but he couldn’t forget the way she made him feel.
As he scanned the crowd, his eyes landed on her. Sherry, sitting at a table, looking as stunning as ever. Her dress hugged her curvy figure, accentuating every curve and leaving Matteo breathless.
He approached her, unable to take his eyes off of her. “Sherry,” he said, his voice husky with desire.
She looked up, her eyes lighting up as she saw him. She stood to greet him, giving him a playful jab in the arm. “You’re late, as usual,” she said, a smirk on her face.
Matteo chuckled, taking a seat across from her. He ordered a drink, his eyes never leaving Sherry. “You look amazing, Sherry,” he said, unable to take his eyes off of her.
Sherry rolled her eyes, taking a sip of her drink. “Oh, please. I’m twice your age, Matteo.”
Matteo raised an eyebrow. “And yet, you’re the one who’s making my heart race.”
Sherry laughed, a genuine, deep laugh that made Matteo’s heart flutter. “You always did know how to flatter a girl, Matteo.”
They made small talk, catching up on old times. Matteo couldn’t help but notice the way Sherry’s eyes lit up when she talked about her latest business venture. She was strong, controlling, and direct, just as he remembered.
Sherry noticed Matteo’s admiration and leaned in closer. “You know, Matteo, I always knew you had a crush on me.”
Matteo’s face turned red, but he didn’t deny it. “You’re not exactly subtle, Sherry.”
Sherry laughed again. “Well, I’m a straightforward woman. If I want something, I go for it.”
Matteo’s heart skipped a beat. He could feel the tension building between them.
Sherry reached across the table, placing her hand on top of Matteo’s. “I’m glad we reconnected, Matteo. I’ve missed you.”
Matteo swallowed hard, feeling Sherry’s touch. “I’ve missed you too, Sherry.”
Sherry’s eyes sparkled. “I have a room at a hotel nearby. Why don’t we continue this conversation there?”
Matteo nodded, unable to speak. He could hardly believe what was happening, but he knew he didn’t want it to stop.
As they left the bar, Matteo couldn’t take his eyes off of Sherry. He was in awe of her strength, her confidence, and her beauty. He couldn’t wait to see what the night had in store for them.
The reunion was just the beginning, and Matteo was ready for whatever came next.
