The perfect love scene? Hmmm I had to give this some thought...something that reflected my idea of romance. I thought of Hollywood power couple, Will & Jada, instantly. To me, they are the REALEST couple in Hollyweird and the closest comparison to my love relationship. They are equally matched, they fit one another like a glove and are passionate about each other even after all of these years.
The perfect love scene is one that is not contrived and happens on a whim. I like the idea of "Will" surprising the workaholic "Jada" at her job as she struggles to get her tasks done in a futile effort to rush home to him. She knows how spontaneous he can be so this was definitely a welcomed surprise - and a huge relief. He waits for her to finish up and whisks her away in an SUV. Her curiosity is piqued. Why are we in this truck? Where's the car? Did it get repossessed? Her panic is eased when he gives her a slight head nod signaling for her to chill, calm down letting her know that he's got this. She settled back and diverting her attention to the signs trying to figure out where her love is taking her. She's a curious Virgo - that's how she's always been. He realizes that his secret plan will be unveiled before its time so he distracts her by caressing her hands then her face and her shoulders. She was done. She needed the massage after a long, crazy week at the office. She gave it and let him work his magic fingers to relieve the tension that crept into her upper back. She wonders why she allows this job to get her all twisted leaving her with nights of insomnia, long work days and very little energy to spare when she's not in the office.
Her mind continues to drift into a euphoric state. He realizes his plan is working. She has no idea where she is going and doesn't care. They finally arrive to the destination, he whispers "We're here...are you ready?". She opens her eyes and realizes that they are at an airport - a small one that's very secluded. She gives him the "what are you up to, Mr Scorpio?" gaze. She trusts him completely so the outcome can only be good but she just gotta be in control and know everything! She darts her attention to every sign and person around them as he escorts her along a path after tipping the driver and thanking him for a timely arrival. They walk through a corridor leading to a small building then through that building into another walkway. They breeze through the airport so quickly that she doesn't have time to take it all in to crack the secret code - where is this man taking me?!
He is laughing hysterically inside because he knows that this is driving her nuts. He knows his woman like the back of his hand. She has this insatiable need to be in the know. He leads her to a waiting area. He asks her to sit while he goes to the customer service counter. She obliges although reluctantly - still wanting to know. As he converses with the agent, she strains to hear the conversation but they are whispering (damn!) so she tries to decipher the announcements in the waiting area but the bad acoustics give her garbled information making it downright difficult for her to figure out what is actually being announced. She gives up - for a second. From the PA system, she hears something about a flight to Hawaii that is departing. He finishes up with the agent and rushes towards her. Her mind starts to whirl. As they rush towards a departure gate, she thinks that she will finally know where they are going and could it be that they are going to Hawaii?! Then she panics. she remembers that they driver didn't unload any luggage so she doesn't have any clothes and neither does he. And she didn't get any vacation time approved so they have to be back home by Sunday. He realizes that her brain is in overdrive mode by her grimace and she's about to go into that critical meltdown any moment.
"Relax" he says calmly. He then asks her if she trusts him. She nods, hesitantly. He doesn't feel assured so he stops them both in their hurried stride and looks deeply into her eyes. Her worries begin to dissipate. She shifts from one foot to the next then nods. Feeling like a champion, he leads her down the another corridor to the plane's door. They board the private jet and are greeted by a flight attendant. The attendant gives him a nod signaling that they are ready to take off when he's ready.
She, still unaware as to where they are heading to, takes a seat in the couch in awe of how luxurious this is then thinks how the heck could they afford this but her inner voice tells her to "trust him" so she lays back smiling. He nestles next to her and secures them both in their seat. Her head falls onto his should as he strokes her head. The plane creeps up to its position on the runway and is ready for take off.
They are definitely ready for what's to come on this journey together....
