Chapter 14 Effiel Tower Meet-up

       Chole's  POV:

     She grabs her purse and takes a deep breath as she prepares to meet him.

     She locks the door and starts to walk towards the Effiel Tower.

     She crosses the street unharmed. She looks around her. Here goes nothing.

       Chole pays the toll to see the top of the tower. She enters the elevator and feels her palms sweat.  She sure hopes he is as good as he seems. 

       How will she know it is him?


      Mystery Man's  POV:

     He wears jeans, a red shirt, red socks and shoes, and a dark blue hoodie.

       His face is covered with a red spiderman mask. He only hopes she can accept him.

        He sees Chole step off the elevator and feels like his throat has a knot in it.        

             

          "Chole, I am to your right, and I am standing beside one of those metal binoculars that let you view stuff out of  them."

        "I hope you will not regret meeting me here."

          

       Chole's  POV:

        "I will be there soon."

      She takes a look around here.

     She sees lots of couples, a few children laughing, and a guy who stands alone.

         "Are you wearing a hoodie and a spiderman mask?"


          

        Mystery Man's POV:
            "Yes, darling." 

           "Please, do not hate me."


            Chole's  POV:
               "Be right there."

              "I c-could never hate you."

              Chole walks over to him. She unfastens the hoodie strings, and slowly removes the hood.

                "It is you."

              She reaches up and puts a hand in his hair.


               She hears sobs come from him.

                "Darling, do not cry."

                 "Chole, I  do not want to leave you."

                  "Shh, do not ruin this moment."  She says.

                  Mystery Man's  POV:

                He starts to cry.

                 He hears her call him darling.

                 Is this a dream?  Could she love him?


                  "Chole, I do not want to leave you."

                  "Shh, do not ruin this moment."

                   "You mean everything to me."


                Chole's  POV:
                  "I know."

                 "I am sorry that I treated you so badly in the past."

                   She tugs at the mask. As it falls, she stares into his familiar eyes and places a hand on his cheek.

                  "Nathaniel, I was hoping it would be you."

                  She sees another tear fall from his face. She wipes it away with her thumb.

                     

                 Nathaniel's  POV:

                 "Chole, you are so beautiful."

                  "You are handsome."

                 He is glad she returns his feelings.

                   Too bad his job might cause him to leave.


                  "The outfit you are wearing suits you. Then, again you always did look great in anything."

                      "I love you."  He uses his thumb to twirl a curl in the bottom of her hair.

                      "I love you, too!" Chole blurts out.


           Chole's  POV:

       Chole pulls him close and kisses him. She feels him respond to the kiss with one of his own.    

         At that moment, she does not care if anyone sees them or not. She only cares that  Nathaniel turns out to be her mystery man. She is so happy.  Happier than she has been in years now.

          Nathaniel returns the kiss. He sees her lovely eyes close. He pulls away a few minutes later.

             "Chole, what are we?"

           "We are in love."

           "I know, but who am I to you?"

        

        "I could be your girlfriend if you want."

        "Chole, I would love to be your boyfriend."

           "Great, so it is settled then."


          Narrator's  POV:
             Six weeks later, Nathaniel finds out a mistake was made in the system at work.

       Turns out someone else got the job promotion and he does not have to move.

           "I am sorry that you did not get the promotion."

            "I am not."

            "Oh, and why not?" Chole asks.

            "I  got something even better."

            "Oh, and what might that be?"

            "I got the girl!"


               Nathaniel smirks when she blushes. He holds her in his arms.

                Chole smiles up at him. She thinks he is so cute when he turns all red just for me.

             

           The end...
