22nd Birthday

Erin woke up to Daniel stroking her hair.

"Mmmm...that feels nice." she said stretching and sitting up.

"Good morning beautiful," said Daniel as he pushed her hair away from her face.

"Why are you being sweet?" she asked with a cheeky smile.

"I'm always sweet," he replied quickly.

Erin laughed, "Hmm...maybe."

"So hurry up and get ready, I am leaving soon." Daniel said as he buttoned his cuffs.

...

Erin got ready for work, she wore a smart knee length black dress with a white blazer on top and some white heels. She put her hair up then took it down again. She was having difficulty deciding what hairstyle matched with this professional looking outfit.

"Erin!" Daniel called.

She quickly went to join Daniel at the dining table.

"Coffee ma'am?" asked the butler.

"Yes, thank you." she answered taking the cup and blowing it to cool down.

"What's the rush?" she questioned, "You can leave if you have to."
