ringing, cutting off their little tease fest. Vance reaches behind him and grabs the portable phone that’s sitting on the end table.
    “Hello?” Vance answers. “Hey, Sis,” Vance says, his voice softening with love. “I just woke up like fifteen minutes ago. Yeah?  Is he doing okay? Good. When will he be released? Okay. No, I didn't forget. Yes, I will be there, promise. I know. Hey, Mia, do you mind if I bring someone with me on Saturday? Okay, good. No, it's not one of the guys. No, not Shawn either. Yes, a woman...”
    Melina then hears Vance's sister through the phone let out a joyful little squeal and say, “It’s about damn time!”
    Melina tries to cover her laugh with a cough, and he gives her a dirty look as he finishes his conversation with his sister then hangs up. “My sister is having a family dinner on Saturday. Can you come?” Vance asks, turning his attention back to her.
    “You sure you want me to meet your family so soon?” Melina asks warily.
    Vance smile softly. “Of course,” he says and takes a strand of her hair to twirl around his finger. “They'll love you.”
    Melina smiles. “Okay, I'll go with you.”
    “Good,” he says then gives her a kiss on the lips. “Are you hungry? Wanna go out to dinner?”
    “Starving,” Melina groans and grabs her stomach.
    “Alright, let me get dressed and we'll go get something to eat,” he says as he gets up from the couch and heads for the stairs.
    Melina watches his sexy ass as he walks away. Wow, he wants her to meet his family already? For only being together for such a short time, this is a big step. She knows that her feelings for him are steadily progressing every day. She loves spending time with him. He is sweet, caring, funny, humble, dedicated, protective, loyal...she can go on and on. He is just her ideal man. Jesus, and don't get her started on his physical attributes. He’s every woman's wet dream.
    Plus, the way his sister reacted, makes her think he doesn't bring women home to his family very often. That makes her feel like she must really mean something to him, and strengthens her hope that what they have really can turn into the relationship that she has always wanted - a dream relationship with her dream man.
    Vance returns ten minutes later in jeans and a t-shirt, looking crazy sexy. As she gets up and walks over to him, he gives her a genuinely happy smile, the kind that reaches his eyes, and makes those baby blues sparkle. And as he puts his arm around her waist and gives her a kiss, Melina realizes in that moment that she is falling in love with her gorgeous detective.

 
    Chapter 8
    Vance pulls into the parking lot of Melina's dance studio that she co-owns with three of her friends. On the ride over, she tells him about how they all met at the Juilliard School for the Performing Arts. The four of them just clicked, and once they graduated, they decided to move to Los Angeles to open up a school together. They each have their own specialties. Melina mostly dances contemporary, but she also teaches Hip Hop and some Latin Ballroom.
    Melina needs to work today, even though it’s Saturday, because one of her male students has an audition that he’s trying to get ready for, and she agreed to squeeze in some extra lessons to make sure he’s ready. She hops out of the car giving Vance a chaste kiss on the cheek, not wanting to get him riled up when she needs to get into the studio. They plan for him to pick her up on the way to his sister's house at four.
    Just before four, Vance walks into the lobby of the studio and sees Melina's best friend, Harper, sitting behind the receptionist desk, reading a magazine. She looks up when she hears him walk in, giving him a sexy smile. The few times that he's been in Harper's presence, he's always felt a bit uncomfortable. She’s extremely flirtatious with him. Melina says that she likes to test any guy who’s with one of her friends to make sure he's not a cheater. He’s getting
