Dreaming In Silver Rainbows

Hi everyone! I'm sorry that I have not been able to keep you all up to date for the past weeks. Things have been hectic since my vacation time ended and Liam is quite good at sweeping me off of my feet. Of course his actions leave my boss and coworkers very happy. Not to say that I am not happy too... Okay, lets start with where I believe I left all of you hanging...

I saw Liam pretty early the next day, his flight wasn't going to leave for quite a few hours so he came by with breakfast and extremely pretty flowers. When I say pretty early I mean before the sunrise. He wanted to watch the sky change colors with me, or so he said with his perfect smile and perfect model hair. It was really nice and super sweet. He arrived with his luggage so that when he had to leave I could go see him off or he could just leave the hotel as late as possible. That was of course nice of him. Nice of him to give me the option. I took a quick shower and he was the perfect gentlemen, I never felt his eyes on me so I'm pretty sure that he never peeked. At the airport before he boarded his flight, he gave me a beautifully wrapped box with silvery purple ribbon bows and smiled a very knowing smile, then he was gone. After taking a picture of me holding the box with a puzzled look on my face of course. Liam Taylor has grown this lovely way of snapping camera phone pictures of me when I least expect it. Its both annoying, a little bit, and endearing.

I have accepted the fact that there is now someone who I care about. Before I made it a point to write off men in general, now I'm pretty happy. Tickled pink actually. Ever since that vacation has been over things between us has become more official. We had a long and deep conversation the night that he returned to Georgia. Even though I offered to meet him at the airport when his flight landed, he told me that he would see me at my hotel and not to worry. When he arrived, he arrived with flowers, damp hair, and a large envelope. In the envelope was a collage of all the pictures Liam has been taking of me and us over the months since we had met in the park. Amongst the photos that he had taken of me were pictures that my friends had work gave him. It was really sweet and of he was extremely cute that day. We practically spoke about everything that was relationship related. One of his questions that will stick with me for a very very long time was concerned with Film and the history of our relationship. At first i was a little confused about the reason that Liam would ask that. He wanted to know the basics, what I didn't want in a relationship and wether or not my heart was intact enough for a new relationship. His level of concern just made me like him more. Who knew that models were so deep...? That is besides the point though... Ever since then, he's been great and I've been great and its fantastic. All things are good in the world of Silver. Chivalry is not dead...

Until I have something else to gush over may good things rule the world and may all relationships be as awesome as the one I have going with Liam Taylor.

I'm really not sure what to do with myself now that I'm on vacation. People from the office called me this morning. Taylor wanted to know how things with Liam are going. Of course I would not answer that question, no matter how many times he asked me. Shirley gushed to me over how cute he is and then basically told me that if I wasn't going after him she would. Matt checked on my at about noon... If they want me to be on vacation why are they all calling me? My boss insisted that I should go somewhere besides just my apartment. I told him that I already had plans to but was not going to tell him where so that he could slip the info to Liam. He shamefully said that he had no idea what I was talking about. I laughed before saying that I had to go and hanging up. With all their pushing towards me giving Liam Taylor a chance, I cannot help but think about the guy. Bottom line, I don't want to date anyone right now. I also don't want to think of Film but he just keeps showing up here. Interestingly enough whenever he is there Liam is here and vice versa.

Today Liam showed up at my door with flowers.. They were just as beautiful as the last bunch he gave me. When he handed them to me, he smiled in a way that gave points to team 'Date Liam'. As I invited him in I noticed Film just getting off of the elevator.  Mouthing the word no after letting Liam in, I closed the door on whatever Film was saying. Perhaps it truly is time for me to start calling security whenever I see Film. I really do not want to though... 

Liam asked me out while he was standing in my living room. Against my better judgement or not, I accepted. The date is tomorrow because he has a photo shoot to go to today. However he did insist on the two of us grabbing lunch together. While part of me wants to give this a chance, the other part that is cynical to dating after Film, screams no. Will I be prepared to jump ship if Liam Taylor turns out to be the opposite of my dream guy? Or is this going to be a complete repeat of what happened before...? 

Very softly and completely chaste, he kissed me after asking me if he could. It was then that all the security locks on my paranoid heart fell apart. It may seem dumb, but, the way that he isn't at all rushing things is what has me liking him more than I want to. I wonder if he has taken a lesson from a book that I don't know of yet. A book that still has to be published. 'A Lesson In How To Get Under My Very Tough Skin.' Somewhere there may be a manuel that he has read and I just might be the one who gives up on the idea of shunning all relationships. 

He did not push it at all. Did not kiss me again until he left for his home. Just as chaste, just as uncomplicated. He left me in my apartment, very confused as well as pining in ways that I didn't want to be. 

So it turns out that Liam really is a model. My coworker pals decided to get me all sorts of info on the dude. They are meddling, I know they are. I also know that they saw me after Film. It was my work family that kept me company that week. I must admit that Liam Taylor is a very attractive man. He is. Yesterday he showed up at the office, where Matt does not want me for the rest of this month, with white orchids. Liam Taylor brought me flowers and looked amazing with his $50,000 smile. (Its rumored that every picture he smiles in earns him at least $50,000. Hmm.) He kissed my hand and asked if I would like to catch lunch. Of course Matt kicked me out of the office. (Traitor!) 

Liam Taylor has very nice hands, is very respectful, and made me blush twice. He never tried to kiss me. Not even once. Insisted on paying for lunch "Even though I'm sure this is not a date."  He smelled really (no REALLY) good and is pretty smart. We never ran out of stuff to talk about. By the time we got back to the office, I was all smiles. He asked me if it would be alright to come by the office to see me on the following day. Matt who was blatantly spying coughed out that I was not supposed to be at work for the following month and that I was free to go home. The first model to really ever have my attention took me home, removed flower petals from my hair before asking me if he could call me later. The most charismatic and gorgeous male model I have ever laid eyes on watched me get into my building before walking away with my cell phone number. Matt will be happy and perhaps a little bit proud...
