This particular piece that Amelia was playing was one of her favorites. It was deeply moving and you can't help but just let the music move you. Amelia had picked up piano playing when she was just a young girl, before she had turned. She kept up the skill, enjoying the way it took away some of the stresses of her daily life. This was her escape and she enjoyed every minute of it. However, what she hadn't counted on was an audience. She had completely lost herself in the music and had forgotten that Troy was soon to arrive. Amelia rarely played for others.
However, there was a sense that someone was watching her, so she halted her notes and turned towards the doorway. Troy was standing in the doorway, watching her. It startled her for a moment, before she saw the look on his face as he took in the dress she had chosen for tonight's date. That was precisely the reaction she was looking for. She wanted to make his jaw drop. It had been a long time since Amelia had wanted to see that look from a man.
Slowly, she moved her legs from beneath the piano, making sure that her leg was extended through the slit in her dress so ALL of her leg showed as she turned to face him. She smiled at him before she rose to her feet and walked towards him. There was no limp to her step as she came near to him. Hand was outstretched towards him, her finger running along his arm for added effect. "Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on how you wish to look at it, this happens to be the only dress I have that shows them off adequately." He didn't have to know that she had a slew of other dresses that would have fit the bill. She wanted to tease him, to see just how much she could made his blood run hot. No, she had no intention of biting him today or any day. She just had always been curious about the male species and how such a dress could make them do a slew of silly things. Call this her experiment.
Hand dropped slowly at her side as she walked past him and to the front door. Looking back, she smiled at him. "Well, are you coming?" Her words were full of innocence as the butler opened the front door and allowed her to step outside in to the beautiful evening. She didn't wait for him before she moved towards his car. She leaned on the door, waiting for him to come open it for her. She remembered the last time they were together that he would always try to open it for her. At least today she would let him. It was nice to get called on every now and then.
