I turned around and took a deep breath, luckily enough for me
he had just found his way to the bathroom to dry off so I had a few minutes to
pull myself together. What was wrong with me. Growing up with two older
brothers, who tended to ALWAYS have the most gorgeous of friends (luckily for
me), I usually knew how to stay cool and collected, not a complete disaster
around amazingly sexy men. But there was just something about him. I made his
coffee, large, two sugars, and then grabbed a blueberry muffin from the case and
placed it nicely in the center of a plate. Just as he was walking back up the
hall from the bathroom, I set them down on a table near the window, and then
made my way back behind the counter.
“I’m Andrew, by the way” he said looking over at me, smiling
as he took his seat. My god, his teeth were amazing too.
“Jessica” I say smiling then motion over to the corner, “and
that’s Daisy,” I said laughing as she wagged her tail, staying put in her bed.
“Are you new here?” he asked, turning his chair towards me
now as he sipped on his coffee “Since this place opened, I usually stop in
Saturday mornings after my run, but I know I would have remembered if the girl
making the coffee was as pretty as you.”
I laughed now, trying to play it cool, but I could tell my
cheeks were officially fifty shades of red. Who was this guy? And Why was he making
my mind and body act like I’ve never been around someone from the opposite sex
before! “Not completely new, just new to the morning shift, Maureen and Emmett
are away, so they asked me to come in a little earlier than usual, I started
working here after I moved to town a little while ago.” I stopped myself there,
realizing he probably didn’t care about my whole back story, just wanted to
know who was making his coffee.
“Well welcome to town, and to my Saturday morning ritual”
Andrew said, flashing me that perfect smile again, “maybe you’ll let me take
you out some time and show you around town, if you haven’t had the opportunity
yet.”
“I would like that” I replied, probably a little too quickly
and eagerly, I laughed turning around and rolled my eyes, what was wrong with
me. When I turned around I jumped a little, startled to see him standing at the
counter again, only a few feet away from me, placing down his empty plate and
cup, and winking before turning to the door. “Hopefully I’ll see you around
soon Mrs. Jessica.”
“It’s Miss, and yea hopefully”
“I was hoping it would be” he added with a wink, “see you
soon.” And then he was out the door, and I found myself starring out the window
until I couldn’t see him anymore.
