He sighs and he looks at her with soft eyes. He looks deeply apologetic about his recent behavior towards her. The last thing he wants is for her to hate him and to think that he had simply used and discarded her. He doesn't want her to believe that what they had was nothing.

"I know...I'm sorry. I couldn't...I had to focus on other things. But it's not like that. I swear it wasn't!"

Megan sighs heavily faustrated and annoyed. People were starring at Roman as he was very handsome and not to mention his expensive car. Everything about him drew attention.

"Let's talk somewhere else." 

Roman glances around him and sees how people are starting at him with their eyes filled with curiosity and some women with desire. He realized that this was not the best situation to talk to her and she was getting irritated by people looking at them. He nods his head and he speaks softly as he looks at her with gentle eyes.

"Let's go...we could find somewhere more private to talk."

She opens his car door and got in. Megan crossed her arms over her chest feeling angry with him.

He sighs and he gets in after she does. The door closes behind him and once they are both in the car...he looks over at her. "I understand if you're angry but please hear me out. I didn't purposefully ignore you...it's been a tough few weeks and I was completely occupied with matters back home that it was hard to focus on anything else."

"It's fine...I mean what right do I have being mad at You?" She said still angry and voice filled with sarcasm.

"No...you have every right to be mad at me. I haven't been the best at communicating and that's my fault. It was childish for me to just leave you for so many weeks...I should've have given you an explanation and told you ahead of time instead of leaving you. I promise I won't do something like that again." He says sincerely as he holds up his hands but he has a stern look on his face. He wanted to get her back on his side and he wanted her to look at him with soft eyes.

Her eyes soften as she hugs him, she holds his waist tightly as her heart melts. "I'm sorry...I was just worried about you...I had no idea if you were okay or not."

His jaw drops when she hugs him and he quickly wraps his arms tightly around her back. He sighs and he pulls her in even closer with the hug. That was the last thing he was expecting from her. He rubs her back softly and he speaks with a light tone.

"I was okay...I just had a lot of work to handle. But that didn't stop me from having you in my thoughts during that time. My worry and concern for you was just as intense."

She looks up at him and smiles, "You missed me too?"

His heartbeat seems to skip a beat as he stares into her beautiful eyes and it seems her smile is the only thing that matters in the world. "Of course I did...it was so rough not being able to talk to you during that time. I was trying to finish up fast but the days just seemed like they dragged on. I'm just happy to be back to see you again."

She smiles holding him tighter. Roman smiles at her feeling happy she was back in his arms. He was excited to show her the incredible apology gift he had prepared for her. He wanted her to be happy and spoiled. He wanted her to feel his love for her.

He stares at her with a bright smile as he notices how tightly she is holding him. He rubs the back of her head affectionately and he was getting more excited thinking of giving her a beautiful gift and her reaction when she sees it. He wanted to show her just how much she meant to him and he had a feeling that this gift would certainly be quite an impressive one. It would definitely impress her.

Megan nervously took a step forward feeling her heart racing as Roman had her eyes covered with his hand. She tried to ask him what he was going to do but he wouldn't say.

Megan was not a big fan of suprises. They gave her anxiety because of her fear of the unknown.

"Roman...I am scared..." Megan said laughing nervously. "It's not something bad is It?"

He laughs gently and he keeps one hand covering her eyes and he caresses the sides of her face with his other hand. He speaks softly and in a teasing way as he keeps her guess of what's going to happen.

"Oh no...it's nothing bad. I'll reveal the surprise in a few seconds. All you have to do it guess what it is and just trust me."

"Guess? Uh...is it...a romantic dinner?" She says with a huge smile on her face. Megan could feel a refreshing breeze on her skin which made her think she was somewhere near water.

He chuckles when he hears her guess and he shakes his head. "It's not a romantic dinner but that's actually not a bad guess. Think a little more. What would I do if I was going to impress the person I loved?"

Hearing him say he loved her so casually made her heart skip a beat. Roman had said he loved her before but she didn't respond, they weren't even a couple! They barely knew each other too.

"Uh....please just show me."

He couldn't help but smile as he saw how she began to get a bit impatient. This was definitely the right moment and it was time to finally put a smile on her face for good. She would leave here feeling happy and spoiled as he was sure that she would love the surprise he had prepared for her. His thumb strokes her cheek gently and then he finally lifts his hand from her eyes and lets her see his surprise.

Megan blinks a couple of times before gasping, "A yacht?" 

He smiles broadly and he nods his head as he was pleased with her reaction. Everything was perfect. He had chosen a really nice yacht which was filled with roses everywhere and candles. He leads her over to the captain's lounge which was decorated so beautifully with fresh flowers. Everything was so beautiful and it was quite the impressive surprise for her.

"Do you like it?"

"....this is amazing." She whispered as she looks around overwhelmed by the beauty of everything.

His face grows into a bright smile as he stares at her with delight since she loved his surprise. He was so proud that he had chosen this surprise for her and it was really fulfilling to see that she loved it so much. That was all that mattered to him. As she looked around and she was amazed, he couldn't help but take a step forward and wrap his arms around her waist. She could feel his breath on her neck as he speaks in a soft tone.

"I'm glad you like it...really I am."
