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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAk1vlMNwAGF
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAoquAgPaO9H
"Okay for starters, can I eat oyster?" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAm2kmok9yXx
"Of course so long as they are cooked" he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAmcUtfdOsnF
"No raw fish" I say smiling and then go on to eye up the mains.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAsRaknXBqhe
"I'll join you with oysters actually" he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAbo5a3Vpeut
"Jay they have steak" I smile looking up at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAmvMsMUqk34
"They do huh?" He smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANASmpSCbRewn
"Mhmm" I say looking at the pasta.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAqzIZdkrU2g
"Truffle pasta is a temptation that I cannot resist" I say handing him the menu.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAAWUKCw8s1l
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAqWwh2I6SZB
"May I take your starters?" He asks
24Please respect copyright.PENANATdLHsQIkvV
"Two oysters" Jay says and then proceeds to order a whiskey for himself. He motions for me to order my drink.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAuJWFUOtTA8
"May I have a virgin pina colada" I say.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAmjI2iDnzY6
"Certainly" the waiter says and promptly goes to get our drinks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAN0PJ7y3HEt
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAy7abg066fP
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAy8UhvWO66t
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAPFkrbnBFpn
"We should go to a museum, the musee de l'orangerie in Paris has some originals" he says softly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA41tENnGH2A
"Oh you're going to have to say more French sounding things" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAQgkRIdEfLA
"Why?" He chuckles
24Please respect copyright.PENANAauyWMDJz0h
"It was incredibly sexy" I smile keeping his eye contact.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAIyznC3JBux
"I can speak French" he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAzJKWGCiJax
"You can speak French?! Fluently?" I say laughing.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAMirSjPtkIk
"Why is that such a shock to you, I'm not a total Neanderthal." He teases.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA62nWYe5cmE
"Prove it" I smile.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAActc8jlYy6
"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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA6rk4bfhGSk
"Oh I have no idea what you said, but I agree wholeheartedly because that was super hot" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAikvX22kn8s
"il fera super chaud" he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAxzYBh4Esxp
"What did you say" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAREMwefFJFZ
"Taylor you are so beautiful I am going to make love to you all night long" he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAA9LYDCCneF
"Mmmm" I smile looking down at my plate.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAnF4g3SWFeK
"I love that you have that skill, I can't believe I didn't know that" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAHGTLKCa2X3
"I'm full of surprises. Mum had me take French lessons, something about it opening up your options to know different languages" he smirks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAIehtMfQrGc
"It sure does open up lots of options" I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAhu7eaicRua
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.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAZNEoJvzvbA
After we have finished them Jay orders our mains. And we have another drink each.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAKXZ9fcJzL5
“What other hidden skills do you have” I ask him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANACEWLf4q9yd
“I think you know them all by now” he chuckles being modest.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAwlilXfJ1i8
“Oh I’m not sure that I do” I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA3EdyIofSfF
“Okay” he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWeqU1aqmnc
“I can do this thing with my tongue” he begins and I smile.
24Please respect copyright.PENANASZsb02FhOj
“Let’s see” I smile.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAAPjgWwi0R7
“I’ll show you later” he smiles and I blush.
24Please respect copyright.PENANALuVLhYxHDq
“Ohhh I know that trick” I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWCMKa2oXxZ
Our mains arrive saving him from my probing. Truffle pasta is my heaven, but truffle pasta here dining with Jay is even better.
24Please respect copyright.PENANARLrNG0tEX2
“Steak good?” I ask him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAgbXkitwKLi
“Not as good as yours” he winks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANANcZtRReY6M
“Such a charmer” I smile.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAmH5Usxq3Nt
“How’s your pasta” he smiles
24Please respect copyright.PENANA1MRuLVBuEw
“Far better than the truffle pasta I cook” I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAAu4mDqRY4a
“Try it” I say scooping some up for him. I hold my hand under the spoon and feed him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAOYoC9zSm4v
“Mmm” he says after he’s tasted it.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ba9jeO96e
“That’s very good” he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAjRtnnSnPxN
I finish before him and he looks up astounded, usually he would be finished way before me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAVVBQmBpqWQ
“Here” he says and he places his fries in front of me. I can’t escape my hunger and I eat.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAatwyyxTcux
Once I look up he’s watching me, smile spread across his lips.
24Please respect copyright.PENANARbjGTd4T2j
“Stop it, I’m gonna get fat at this rate” I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAanbMtj5Ho0
“No you’re pregnant” he says.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAh9drqJB4wP
“I think that’s a myth” I say.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZwiuicfL9
“Eating for two” I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA6oDmHcPgmO
“You eat as much as you like” he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA57NyUI9v1N
“Dessert?” He says and I smile.
