As they ate, they discussed their families, work and college careers. They had quite a few things in common, which made both of them even more interested in each other.
    Raegan was becoming quite surprised at how her interest was growing in Rico. During dinner, Rico asked Raegan to date him exclusively so that they could see where it goes and she agreed. Rico convinced her that they would forever be getting to know each other and they could do that while they were in a relationship.
    Moments after dinner, they bid their goodbyes and Raegan began to pack for her trips over the next week.
    On the ride home, Rico thought about how well things were going with Raegan. He really enjoyed spending time with her and hoped that he could keep his past and present hidden while he continued getting to know her.

CHAPTER 9
    ∞
    After dinner with Rico, Raegan left town on a red eye flight to participate in the homecoming festivities in Virginia with her sorority sisters. Jasmine, her favorite sorority sister, picked her up from the airport. Raegan immediately crashed on an air mattress when she arrived at Jasmine’s apartment.
    Jasmine’s loud voice, coupled with the sun rays peeping through the faux wood blinds, woke her up later that morning. “Good morning!” Jasmine said. Her voice was naturally loud so Raegan couldn’t snooze a few extra minutes if she wanted to.
    “Hey, what’s going on? What’s for breakfast?” Raegan asked with a smile. She added, “Where is Kensi? I thought she came in last night?” Raegan continued stretching and yawning to shake off the fogginess of sleep.
    “She did. She’s in the shower getting ready, as you should be if we’re going to make it to the game in enough time to tailgate.”
    “Great! I’ll get ready after Kensi frees up the bathroom. Where is your laptop? I need to check my e-mail really quick to make sure nothing is needed from me at work.”
    “Child, aren’t you off work? Clearly you don’t know the meaning of a vacation. Vacation means e-mails and phones are off,” Jasmine admonished her.
    “I know, I know. I just like to check anyway to be sure there isn’t a real emergency.” Raegan wasn’t actually concerned about work. She was secretly hoping that there would be an e-mail from Rico, as he seemed to e-mail her daily these days. She paused and smiled when she opened her inbox and saw that the last e-mail was from him:
    Good morning,
    I have been sitting here for hours just thinking about you. I must tell you again that you are absolutely amazing! I actually went to sleep thinking about you and woke up with you on my mind. I would say it's been a long time since I felt this way, but that would be a lie, I have never felt this way. I don't even have words to describe how I feel; you are so wonderful and so is this feeling. All I can do is thank GOD for meeting you, seriously. GOD I THANK YOU for seeing enough in me to send me one of your angels! I see so much when I look into your eyes, it's so comforting! WOMAN where have you been all my life, but then again I am glad you came at this time, a time when I have renewed myself as a man, and all the man I am, you now have. I have no reservations in giving myself to you, none whatsoever! In short I will say this, you are missed and thank you for giving my heart another function other than pumping blood. Can’t wait until your return.
    Rico
    Raegan was quickly interrupted by Jasmine’s loud voice and a giggling Kensi. “Ma’am, why are you over there grinning? Surely there is nothing from work that will cause your face to light up like a Christmas tree and your teeth to show like you’re getting ready for a cleaning!” Jasmine stood with one hand on her hip, sassily wagging the other hand.
    “It’s an e-mail from Rico. He is so sweet,” Raegan said, blushing and sporting a school-girl grin. Raegan decided that since she had a couple of minutes, she would shoot him a quick e-mail before getting into the shower.
