Arabella's POV
"Wow! You looked so happy now, Ara; I could see in your face that you were glowing, and I could tell you had a perfect date with Tyler last night, plus you've got flowers in your hands." Neil said after I got inside the dive shop, and he was looking at the beautiful bouquet in my hand.
"Yeah, you were right, I had a perfect date last night, and I am thankful for your family, Neil, for helping me," I responded as I carefully put the flowers on the table. I could still feel the aftereffects of my hot date with Tyler last night, and I was amazed that he picked me up this morning and gave me flowers.
"Hey, we consider you part of our family, Ara, and that is why I cannot have a romantic date with you." He said, and I know he was teasing me, and I felt glad Neil didn't insist on having a date with me. And his beautiful smile made me think he was over me.
"Thank you, Neil, for all the support," I replied.
