The thought of spending the entire day with Jeremiah, well, it brought a smile to her lips that reached her eyes.  It had been far too long, since she had a man in her life, and even longer since she had had a man in her bed.  This handsome gentleman, sitting across the table from her, well, he piqued her interest, that was for sure.  She loved the easy banter they had, and the shared thoughts of conversation, well, that was certainly intriguing to have that happen with a stranger.  He didn't feel like a stranger, that was the best part.<br/><br/>She realized she had let her mind wander, and his quiet exclamation, "Well, that's great Marti!" brought her back to the here and now.  As he told her he had a few ideas of things to do, and places to see, her excitement grew.  To be in this beautiful place, to be sharing it with a man, who seemed genuinely interested in her, well, this was starting out to be a wonderful vacation indeed.<br/><br/>Just with that, the waitress brought their breakfasts, and before Marti could ask for more coffee, the waitress giggled, and said, "I'll bring you two lovebirds some more coffee in just a sec."  Marti stared after the waitress, in total disbelief, and looked back at Jeremiah, who also had a look of disbelief on his face as well.  Goodness, was she, were they,<em>that</em>obvious?  Marti didn't think so, but perhaps the subtle signals weren't that subtle after all!<br/><br/>Marti was not a "young chick" any longer.  She was a mature woman, and at 50 she was ready to find someone who she could share her life with.  Someone who had similar interests as she did.  Maybe they<em>did</em>look like they belonged together.  Maybe they did. . .<br/><br/>She enjoyed her breakfast immensely.  The fruit salad was heavenly, fresh tropical fruit, that made her mouth water.<br/><br/>She smiled at her Jeremiah coyly, "So, what do 'lovebirds' do on a day of sightseeing?"
