Chapter 2.
"Frankie, Sadie, I'd like you to meet my new boss Mr. Davenport, and his wife." Dad said, introducing us to them. "And this, is their son, Blake Davenport."
To say that Blake Davenport was good looking would be an understatement. He had sandy blonde hair, and a gorgeous tan physique. He was tall, around 6'2, and had a perfect white smile.
"Hi." he said, reaching out his hand. Of course Sadie wasted no time reaching out her perfectly polished hand, placing it into his, and smiling directly at him.
"Hi, I'm Sadie. It's great to meet you." she grinned.
"Hello Sadie." he replied back. "And you must be Frankie." he said, turning to fix his eyes on me.
"Hey." I said, offering a small wave.
I wasn't the hand-shaking type, and it was obvious that when a guy this good looking was stood in our hallway, he was only going to be interested in Sadie. I traipsed into the lounge and was soon joined by Sadie and our family photo album. Oh lord. Out came the holiday photos - Sadie looking gorgeous in her string bikini, and me looking like a huge whale in comparison.
"Sadie, I'm sure Blake doesn't want to see those." I said, trying to pry the photos out of her hands.
"Nonsense Frankie." Blake said, appearing behind me and placing a hand around my waist. "I'd love to see some holiday snaps."
"You would?" Sadie asked, sounding surprised.
"Of course. Here Frankie, why don't you sit beside me." he suggested, pulling me next to him on the sofa. Of course Sadie gave me death glares but there was nothing I could do. Sadie didn't need to feel threatened. When I caught a glimpse of our reflection in the mirror, my suspicions were confirmed. Blake and Sadie looked amazing next to each other. Along the lines of Brangelina - which I had a sneaking suspicion Blake could be somewhat distantly related to. Later on I went into the kitchen to do the dishes. I grabbed our phone and called my best friend; Taylor.
"Hey Tay." I smiled into the receiver, balancing it in the crook of my neck as I filled the dishwasher.
"How tall is he?" she immediately asked.
Typical. Taylor had a slight obsession with her height. She's been growing inches yearly since she was thirteen and now stood at a Model worthy height of 5'10. In my opinion, she looked beautiful, I'd give anything to be that tall. Would probably stop me looking so fat and dumpy, but no. Taylor hated the fact she was tall.
"He's probably around 6'2." I sighed, loading up the plates.
"Good looking?" she questioned further.
"Let's put it this way; Sadie has taken a shining to him if that answers your question." I explained.
"Oh, why does Sadie need a boyfriend over six foot. She's only 5'5! It's so unfair Frankie!" she complained.
"Why do you need a boyfriend over six foot in the first place? You never wear heels!" I pointed out.
"Yes, but I would if I had a boyfriend tall enough to wear them with." she corrected.
This was just like her.
"You know Jeremy really like you." I said, feeling the need to point this out again. "And he's 5'9 - I measured him last time he came over." I added, hopeful.
"Frankie, I don't fancie your cousin." she stated. "He's nice, but
.he's too short!" she finally admitted.
"Really Taylor, nobody will notice an inch or two." I scolded.
"Back to this American." she called, changing the subject. "Describe him to me." she instructed.
"Blonde, tan - washboard abs." I chuckled, hearing Taylor fake drool on the receiving end. "I reckon you could eat off them he's that buff!" I said, in a southern drawl. I turned around to come face to face with none other, than Blake Davenport. My face flushed and I tried to figure out just how much of that he'd heard.
"He sounds delicious!" Taylor yelled, loud enough for us both to hear. I quickly hung up and spun around, embarrassed.
