Ever since I am a child, I always believe with the power of love.
I am Amanda Roberts and I am here in a hotel in Las Vegas with my boyfriend Charles. We agreed to have a vacation here in order to unwind ourselves from stress.
Charles approaches me and blindfolded me.
"What are you doing, babe? Is it your another surprise? Are we going to play tonight?" I ask him in a seductive tone.
"Oh, since when did you not like my surprises baby?" he asks me back as he kisses my neck.
I turn around so that I could face him. Although I am blindfolded, I am able to reach his lips and kiss him. He then takes my hand and leads me the way.
"Should we do something hot, tonight?" I ask him.
"But babe, we have been doing so hot and naughty today. I think, we should rest instead. I have been so exhausted." His reply makes me feel disappointed.
Like seriously? Is he just teasing me then decline my urge? That is so unfair!
"Okay then, I guess you do not want me anymore." My voice was full of disappointments.
"Come on babe, you know that I always want you but it is already late. We still need to go to the casino. Maybe we could have try our luck there." Oh right, casino again.
I rolled my eyes in disbelief and take off the blindfold. Ever since we have arrived here in Las Vegas, his mind is already occupied with the casino and gambling.
"Just go downstairs yourself. I do not want to go there. I am also so tired today." I admit that I feel so angry at him. He is not giving me attention just like I wanted. Gambling is only on his mind and I do not like it.
"Oh come on Amanda, you can't be serious with that. We still have to win the roulette tonight. Because if we do, I will surely give you all the attention that you want." He stated.
I saw him stop and stare at me for a while. Maybe he already realizes his mistakes.
"Baby look, I am so sorry. It's just that, I also want to enjoy here. We never know when shall we go back here. Can you forgive me?" He said then hugs me from behind.
"Okay, I forgive you Charles. But only because we still have two more days here and we still have time to have fun." I replied at him and smile.
"Thank you babe. You are the best!" He uttered then gives me a peck of kiss on my lips.
"Come on, time to get ready, or else we will be late at the roulette." I instructed him.
"Doll up babe. You will going to be my lucky charm. I really feel that I will going to win tonight." He then went to his closet and look for a clothes to put on.
I decided to put on a white blouse paired with a black glittering skirt.
"You look so beautiful babe. I am ready to go now." Charles complimented me.
"So, how do I look baby?" He asks me.
"You look so handsome as always. You are smoking hot, babe." I complimented him back.
"Thank you babe." He said.
As we arrive at the casino, Charles immediately went to the roulette and play.
"Wish me luck, babe." He said before getting some chips.
"Have fun. I wish you will tonight." I said as I rolled my eyes. I can't believe that he is happier with this gambling game than me.
After about 30 minutes of playing, Charles already earned a lot of chips. He is quite lucky tonight, huh. Maybe tonight is his night.
"Wow, that's a lot of chips babe!" I remarked at him.
"Yeah right! I can really feel that I am so lucky tonight." He responded excitedly.
"Can you kiss me for another good luck?" He asks.
What? Is that really necessary?
"Are you sure about that Charles? I might bring you bad luck if I kiss you." I hesitated into his decision.
"Oh Amanda, do not be a chicken. I am so lucky tonight and that is because of you. So now, come on, kiss me." He persuaded me.
I do what he said. I give him a peck of kiss into his lips. Everyone is all eyes on him to know whether he will or not. Well, I really hope that he does.
The roulette started to spin. And as it stops, my whole world also does. O to the M to the G! A big OMG! Charles did not win!
"Oh my gosh, we lost everything that we had." I was disappointed and sad right now. Charles is so confident that he will going to win it.
"Do not be sad babe. Maybe tonight is not our time yet baby. At least we have enjoyed this night, right?" He asks me as if everything is fine.
Enjoy? Us? He, alone, was enjoying it and now he loses all that we had.
Charles grabs my hand and guide me on our way out to the casino. Suddenly, a man, maybe same age as ours, greeted us. He is maybe like in the late 20's or in his early 30's.
"Good evening." He said.
"I hope that you are not leaving yet." He added.
This man might be the most handsome person I have ever seen. His sexy green eyes were like inviting me to talk to him. I could even feel that I have fallen my jaw while staring at him.
"I am so sorry to interupt but I saw you playing earlier but you lost. Would that incredibly beautiful lady try to bring me luck tonight?" He asks.
Is he referring to me? He is not kidding me, right?
I was about to answer when Charles reply immediately.
"We are now heading out." Charles said plainly.
"Uhh... Yeah, we are leaving now, mister." I politely said.
"How unfortunate. I promise, just one game and I bring her back to you." He convinces Charles.
Suddenly, a man with a black suit, probably his bodyguard or a buttler approaches him and said something to him then leave. Few moments later, we saw the same man who whispered to him, bringing lots of chips.
"Here is it boss." He said as he handed those bunch of chips he had.
Wow, this man must be a millionaire. No, a billionaire! That is a huge sum of money allocated for gambling alone.
"I am so sorry mister but I am afraid that I won't bring you a good luck tonight. Do not waste your money on me. I am certain that you will not win." I refused. I just remember what happened to Charles not long before. He might lose all of that because of me and I do not want to be blame for it.
"Who cares about money? That is not a problem on me." He smiled at me as he said those words.
I look at Charles' face and cued him if I could have one game with this man. Charles was not sure but nodded. He must be still undecided but he just agreed.
"Alright, but I tell you, one game is enough." I warned him and he responded me with a smile. He then guided me to the desk where he wants to play.
He puts all his chips into the disk and take the dice.
"Would you please bring me some luck?" He asks and was like cuing me to kiss the dice.
"Are you sure?" I was hesistant again. I know that he will going to lose it all.
"A hundred percent sure." As he said those words, I closed my eyes and kissed the dice. As expected, everyone's eyes are on us.
He throw the dice and my heart can't stop pounding.
"Yes!" He exclaimed in joy. He... won! He actually won. Well, good for him.
I congratulated hom for his fortune.
"Thank you, Miss..." He pause as he realizes that he do not know my name.
"Amanda Roberts." I introduce myself to him.
I was about to say something when Charles interferred.
"So, is it okay for us to leave now? My girlfriend and I needs some rest now." His voice was kind of irritated.
"Can you join me tonight Miss Amanda? Do not worry, we will just be gambling. Do not worry about the money. I can buy everything you want." He said straightly. Is he serious? Did he just said that in front of Charles?
"Nah, you can't buy everything mister. You can't buy emotions and love." I replied. He just laugh at my opinion.
"What if I can prove to you that you are wrong?" He was challenging me.
"What do you mean? How is it possible?" I ask him in confusion.
"What if I offered you one million dollars in exchange of a single night with your girlfriend?" He ask Charles.
"You are kidding right?" Charles laugh.
"No, I am serious about it." Indeed, his face was full of seriousness.
"You know what, we do not need your money." I blurted out.
"Okay, I will give you time to think about it. I just need your answer tomoorow morning. There is no need to rush." He said before leaving the room.
Is he dead serious about it? No freaking way! Of course I will not going to do it even though he is so handsome like that!
