I was about to do something that I had never done before.

“How would you like to go away with me for the weekend?”

“Where?” She smiled.

“Vegas. I have a business meeting. It won’t take long, and then we can do whatever you want for the rest of the weekend together.”

“You mean we can actually sleep together in a bed?” She smirked.

“That and many other things.” I winked.

She bit down on her bottom lip. “When are you leaving?”

“Tomorrow.”

“I have to work all day.”

I pulled my phone from my pocket and dialed Connor.

“Connor Black,” he answered.

“Connor, it’s Sebastian.”

“Hello, Sebastian. To what do I owe the pleasure?”

“Would you mind if I stole Chloe Kane tomorrow?”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m flying to Vegas, and I would like her to go with me, but she says she has to work.”

“Oh. I didn’t know the two of you were seeing each other.”

“That’s yet to be determined.”

“Ah, I see. If she can swing the day off, it’s fine with me. She’s the manager, and she knows if she can or can’t.”

“Thank you, my friend. I’ll be in touch.”

“Sebastian, wait. Chloe is a great woman, and I know I don’t have to?—”

“I know, and, no, you don’t.”

“Okay. Have fun in Vegas.”

“Thanks. We’ll talk soon.”

Chloe sat across from me with wide eyes as she listened to me talk to her boss. I knew Connor wouldn’t mind, but I needed to put Chloe’s mind at ease.

“I cannot believe you just called him.”

“Why? We’re friends. He said that he doesn’t have a problem with you taking the day off as long as you feel you can. So can you?”

“I don’t know. I have an exhibition coming up in a couple of weeks.”

“Then you can work extra hard on Monday.” I smiled.

“Fine. I’ll go to Vegas with you.”
