We meet.. that was it.

I'd like to share the story of my love, my life... Ade. 
I was out dancing.. I could feel the someone watching me.. he was with a group of African men I knew, but each time I asked who he was, no one seemed to know.
I flirted for a bit... catching his eyes and smiling, hoping he would come my way... then he was gone.
The next night... while celebrating my birthday at another club... he was there, smiling his blazing smile.
I waited for him to talk to me, he didn't.
Later that night, when I was leaving the club, all of a sudden he was there... he just stepped out of the crowd.
His line was simple... "I was going to get myself a drink...care to join me?"
We talked, I thought he was the most stunningly handsom man I had ever meet. I couldn't beleive he was interested in me... He asked me if I had a boyfriend...
I said "No." 
"So, how does one apply?" came the his smooth reply. 
"dinner and flowers..." 
"Wednesday night OK?" 
I still could not beleive that this man, a man who could have anyone, wanted me.
He took my phone number and dissappered into the night...
I can remember the exact moment that I knew I wanted to be with him for-ever. It was on that Wednesday night, he smiled that famous smile... my heart melted.. I was his.
He moved into my flat on Friday. By the end of the month we where engaged... 5 months later we where married...
That was three years ago. 
I never did get those flowers.
