You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Matthew smiled at the look of seriousness on Clarissa’s face.

He bent over to bump his forehead gently against hers. “Have a little faith in yourself, Clare. I’m very touched by your gift. How else do you want me to express it?”

Matthew knew that she valued his opinion, but it was her artistic ideal that mattered the most to her.

This gift was three years in the making since she penned the first words of the novel all the way until the filming of its adaptation.

Matthew did not know how to repay such a meaningful gift from his wife.

His lovely Clarissa had endured all forms of degradation and bullying since she had been married to him. The greatest gift a woman can give to a man was to bear him a child. Clarissa had not only done that, but she had also worked so hard on the novel and the film which were a tribute to their love. Matthew could think of no better way for Clarissa to express her love for him than what she had already done.

Clarissa smiled as her hand lay softly against his cheek.

“Don’t express your gratitude now,” she teased. “Wait for the premiere.”

Matthew flicked at her forehead playfully. “I’ll be grateful starting from now. My gratitude will grow stronger when your movie comes out. I can only show my gratitude to you by offering you my body.”

Clarissa giggled. “You wish!” she chided, though she eyed him seductively.

Matthew merely smiled. She does not want to, but couldn’t I get it myself?

Matthew tapped on her head with a finger. “Let’s get home, shall we?”

Clarissa picked up her things as they prepared to leave. Standing intimately next to Matthew, they alternated between her clinging to his arm and him wrapping his arm around her waist. Their walk to the car had to be paused frequently as the couple couldn’t seem to keep their lips apart.

With a public display of affection as obvious as this, they attracted stares wherever they went.

Not only were they infatuated with one another, but they were also a handsome couple.

The cameras clicked incessantly from a distance as the paparazzi did not often get the opportunity to capture the Tysons out in public.

They had gotten word earlier that day that Clarissa would be having auditions for her movie in this particular studio, that was why they had camped outside the building since that morning for a chance to capture the elusive couple on camera.

Many actors had left before then but the paparazzi held on to a desperate hope that their efforts would pay off.

The shutters clicked madly at the couple holding hands as they exited the building.

From their kisses to their embraces, every gesture was deemed worthy to be photographed.

It was exciting for them as they did not want to miss even a single second of the couple’s actions. As they gazed at Matthew’s departing car, satisfied that their patience had paid off, a hand tapped on the shoulder of the paparazzi at the back of the group.

With a violent jump, he whipped around as his heart jumped to his throat.
