Rachel stood aside to let the men in and mutely pointed to her coffee table in the living room when she was asked where she’d like the flowers put. When the men were done and walking out of the house, it suddenly looked as if a garden had sprung up.

“Oh my god!” Rachel exclaimed, her voice muffled because both of her hands were still covering her mouth in surprise. She turned to Ainsley and threw herself at her, embracing her tightly. “Thank you so much! They are perfect! This is the most amazing thing anyone has ever done for me!”

“No, no, no,” Ainsley began. “Your mother gave birth to you. That was pretty amazing. But I’ll gladly take second place.”

Rachel still in Ainsley’s arms looked, up at her and into her eyes, realizing finally that this wasn’t just a crush.

She was about to allow Ainsley to enter the house now that the admission fee of the flowers had been paid when her eye caught something parked in front of her home.

“Wait!” she exclaimed, coming around Ainsley. “Is that a limo?”

Ainsley laughed.

“You didn’t notice that before?” she asked.

“No!”

That didn’t surprise Rachel. A dinosaur could have been standing next to Ainsley and all Rachel would have seen was Ainsley.

“No bullshit, Ains,” Rachel went on, “when I opened the door and saw how you looked, I saw nothing else.”

“Oh my god! You have such a silver tongue!”

Rachel smirked.

“Yep. I guess you’d better snatch me up before some other woman gets to take advantage of my special tongue.”

“Oh my god!” Ainsley repeated, laughing. “You are trouble!”

“I am. Now, what’s with the limo? It is so cool!”

So Ainsley explained to her that after thinking about it, she decided she looked too cute to be driving.

“Besides, now we can truly enjoy ourselves and relax and not have to worry about how much we drink.”

“I love it! Such a good idea! But, damn, Ains, I hope you didn’t break the bank tonight with the flowers and the limo…”

Ainsley scoffed.

“Hello? Surgeon!” she said. “Trust me, it’s unconscionable how much money I make. Not that I’m complaining!” she added hurriedly.

Rachel laughed.

“Well, come on in.”

Now it was Ainsley who put her hands on her hips.

“Um…not so fast, Ms. Hamill,” she said. “I am not an easy girl. You promised me chocolates.”

“Which are inside,” Rachel said, taking Ainsley’s hand and leading her through the front door, loving it when Ainsley entwined their fingers together.

Already, this was the best Valentine’s Day Rachel ever had.

As soon as the door closed behind them, Ainsley wished she could just strip off all her clothes and then help Rachel do the same. Rachel just looked unbelievably gorgeous tonight! There were not enough flattering adjectives to describe the way Rachel looked. When Ainsley had first seen her, she had felt lightheaded and as a doctor, she made a quick self-diagnosis…

Dizziness caused by brain ischemia due to all the blood in my body flowing straight to between my legs.
