We are greeted by front of house at the dining room. Everybody is dressed exquisitely smart and even the walls glitter and gleam.

There's a small live orchestral band and a pianist. Their music fills the room and I smile up at Jay. He looks down at me and squeezes my hand lightly. We're seated on a table close to the band, the waiter pulls my chair out for me and I smile and take a seat.

The tablecloths are linen white and they're several sets of cutlery. Jay passes me the menu first and I peruse it noticing that there are dishes on it that I've never even come across. And I cook myself.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjynGqJsKK
"Okay for starters, can I eat oyster?" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt5y9SIzLV
"Of course so long as they are cooked" he smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDR3XfLttB
"No raw fish" I say smiling and then go on to eye up the mains.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6wTqF2zg9
"I'll join you with oysters actually" he smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfbDcZxB63
"Jay they have steak" I smile looking up at him.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAen63L13ZT
"They do huh?" He smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQWqbQ512k
"Mhmm" I say looking at the pasta.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BZWA5G9oo
"Truffle pasta is a temptation that I cannot resist" I say handing him the menu.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QS5fiBYjw
I watch him look over the menu, he's so confident and self assured. He takes one look and then sets the menu back down. The waiter promptly comes over to our table.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08JtCqwSk6
"May I take your starters?" He asks
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgeuLosoPi
"Two oysters" Jay says and then proceeds to order a whiskey for himself. He motions for me to order my drink.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqW2tzKVt7N
"May I have a virgin pina colada" I say.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKg2Kv1SrB
"Certainly" the waiter says and promptly goes to get our drinks.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnRNMRgdhB
Jay lounges back exuding confidence. I marvel at him. The way he is always just himself. I suppose that he is used to places such as this; he grew up with wealth and privilege. It doesn't phase him, he could be chilling in his local pizza place for all he cares. Me however, I did not grow up eating out in places such as these, so whilst he is lounging and relaxing I am looking around the room like I'm in a museum. I always make a point of noticing the art in places.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW8QIXyOxh
There are huge paintings, the kind that are in gilded frames. I suppose they are originals, and I'm staggered by the amount of fine art there is in this hall.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSR93FpOGw
Jay catches my eye looking at a painting that looks as though it's in the style of Claude Monet. It's romantic and beautiful, the colours melting into one another.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95DYfJfZ5C
"We should go to a museum, the musee de l'orangerie in Paris has some originals" he says softly.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jibkjhWZM
"Oh you're going to have to say more French sounding things" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPP62frk7n
"Why?" He chuckles
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Oedl6iUq
"It was incredibly sexy" I smile keeping his eye contact.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNRESpQhLf
"I can speak French" he laughs.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3iCUqlAcb
"You can speak French?! Fluently?" I say laughing.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM10R9L0DLv
"Why is that such a shock to you, I'm not a total Neanderthal." He teases.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Aw368xGDJ
"Prove it" I smile.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDQ0vTVYIZ
"Taylor, vous êtes si belle. je vais te faire l'amour toute la nuit" he says softly his eyes watching mine. I melt in my seat.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhpoViW9qV
"Oh I have no idea what you said, but I agree wholeheartedly because that was super hot" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUw6I9797R
"il fera super chaud" he laughs.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9DulpoPUU
"What did you say" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyx1jw2A5M
"Taylor you are so beautiful I am going to make love to you all night long" he smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON7nEZwncM
"Mmmm" I smile looking down at my plate.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fu3MXFv5O
"I love that you have that skill, I can't believe I didn't know that" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29D6rpc3cK
"I'm full of surprises. Mum had me take French lessons, something about it opening up your options to know different languages" he smirks.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk39AlTLqG9
"It sure does open up lots of options" I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog4Yhaq6aI
Our starters arrive and Jay checks that mine are thoroughly cooked. They taste wonderful of course, I try my best to eat them delicately but the baby hunger takes over.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM4w43xP2P
After we have finished them Jay orders our mains. And we have another drink each.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLP51f2wzP
“What other hidden skills do you have” I ask him.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDwZMKgFXl
“I think you know them all by now” he chuckles being modest.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoycec99AjT
“Oh I’m not sure that I do” I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw9AiKIG5W
“Okay” he smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezSjHd52g5
“I can do this thing with my tongue” he begins and I smile.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gFX5uc7gJ
“Let’s see” I smile.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaMfePYiBc
“I’ll show you later” he smiles and I blush.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevAOYWQESF
“Ohhh I know that trick” I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUrJCD37Hg
Our mains arrive saving him from my probing. Truffle pasta is my heaven, but truffle pasta here dining with Jay is even better.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MPHILx4PX
“Steak good?” I ask him.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJHzrFeXCZ
“Not as good as yours” he winks.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfgGhasMU5
“Such a charmer” I smile.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU1RvycQJl
“How’s your pasta” he smiles
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqf7I0f8Q4
“Far better than the truffle pasta I cook” I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp8rrBjsc1
“Try it” I say scooping some up for him. I hold my hand under the spoon and feed him.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQRdZjLQUk
“Mmm” he says after he’s tasted it.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfnOLhJcgY
“That’s very good” he laughs.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosdJWOf1Ey
I finish before him and he looks up astounded, usually he would be finished way before me.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGV03IcphX
“Here” he says and he places his fries in front of me. I can’t escape my hunger and I eat.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8k6wsvDDR
Once I look up he’s watching me, smile spread across his lips.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OqTtEpQHw
“Stop it, I’m gonna get fat at this rate” I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIMrB7VV6p
“No you’re pregnant” he says.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIOO8EaCg8
“I think that’s a myth” I say.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJMBny1eGP
“Eating for two” I laugh.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LV9DgC5RD
“You eat as much as you like” he smiles.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTeDbTLBvr
“Dessert?” He says and I smile.
