She almost lost the track of time in the bathroom as she was completely lost in the elated feeling . She was brought to her senses when Alex knocked the door to check on her as she had taken more then usual time. She told him that she was fine and will be out in some time . She Readily took a dip in the warm water which was to relaxing and then dried herself and went to her wardrobe to dress up.
She picked up one of her old neatly packed summer dress. Did a very light make up and grabbed a over coat to keep herself warm . before leaving the room she checked herself in the full length mirror and she realized how good she used to look.
When she reached the hall she saw the breakfast ready but Alex was no where in sight. She just sat at the table to grab crumbled eggs and bread Alex had prepared for breakfast. She had just started to eat when Alex entered from the front door initially she was shocked but the moment he saw it was Alex she was at relief he had washed and shaved and was looking much younger ,he sported a checked shirt and a worn out blue jeans it was she almost fell in love with him again she could not just take her eyes away from him she felt like keep staring into his deep blue eyes. It was his shy smile and his voice that brought her back to her senses .

On the other hand Alex had to control his emotions he had never seen Sara fully dressed up. This was the first time he saw her like that and his heart almost skipped but he had to control his emotions but his eyes spoke it out. They had their breakfast and decided to go to a palace that had a beautiful park along with it.
They hopped into Alex’s truck and tuned to a rock radio station and soon they were humming to the song being played . both were stealing glances from each other .
In an hour they were at the palace. It was on old building with Elizabethan architecture and looked beautiful in the sun light . They started by taking a tour with the tour guide describing the significance of different places in it but what caught both their attention was when ht guide told that there were many secret hide outs in the palace where the owners use to make out in private . He did not showed any but surely gave good hints. It was as if they both were on same frequency they just saw each other and broke off from the group without being noticed and went on search of the hide outs . It was fun and with combined efforts they made it to. It was a hidden room with a camouflaged entrance . They helped each other get in. Both were excited as it was their little adventure . It was a small room with defused light from the old mirrors with light air coming from the top opening . Both were looking around the room with their eyes stuck on each other . Sara being lost in the moment stepped over a stone and fumbled but Alex saw it can held but both ended up on the floor and burst into laughter . This was like an ice breaker . They landed very close to each other Almost touching . They could smell each others breath and the warmth in the air was increasing . They were looking in each others eye and it was a sinking feeling they just drew towards each other and they kissed and time as if came to a stand still . moments turned to seconds , seconds to minutes into some thing eternal. It was as if hidden desires dipped deep within them came out . It was no lust but sheer love it was a unification of two bodies
