Joe QB🏈

Do you like food?

Y/N

Yes, QB.  I like food.  Love it actually.  I'm always down for a nice meal.

Joe QB🏈

Alright then, wanna come over to my Air BnB Friday night?  I'll cook you dinner.

----------------------

After several days of solid texting that began with a food invitation, they moved straight to phone conversations.  They were short and sweet; Joe asking her how her day had gone.  Y/N telling him about what she was working on in the studio.  She loved hearing his voice over the phone.  His deep, sometimes raspy voice made her stomach do summersaults.  Y/N couldn't think of the last time anyone had made her feel this way honestly.  She'd had a very public, very messy, serious relationship that had last years to long.  Since that relationship had ended she had been very cautious about even dating again.  She was very content to do some solo traveling and learn about herself and how to be comfortable being alone.  The fact she was even entertaining dating Joe was a bit overwhelming.

Friday Morning

"We still on for the night?"

Y/N was still in bed that morning when Joe called her.  It was nearly eleven, and Joe had been up since about 8 am, getting a workout in and taking some meetings while he was in LA.  Joe had been making fun of her for still sleeping in and she was letting him know she was an artist and sleeping late was apart of the gig. 

"Why you callin' me so early Burrow?  Don't you know I'm on artist time?"

"Early?  Joe exclaimed, "Is nearly eleven in the morning early, Y/N?"

"I told you I like to sleep late, especially after a long night at the studio."

It was then Joe realized that she was talking to him in bed, and his mind began to drift thinking about what she looked like.  Long, blonde hair splayed out over the pillows, her cheeks soft and pink, sleepy doe eyes,  he wondered what she wore to bed.  She didn't seem like the type to like be confined when sleeping.

"That's right you did, you were asking if I like to sleep with the room cold and if I had blackout blinds.  He leaned his elbows on the counter, and looked at this coffee mug.  The backyard of his Air BnB was bathed in sunlight, it was one of the only things he liked about LA. He thought about what he it would be like to wake up next to her.

Y/N smiled, she liked that he remembered their conversations.  "So you never answered that question.  Do you sleep with the room cold and pitch black?"

"What time do you wanna come over tonight?" he asked.

"Am I gonna find out then?" she quipped

He felt his face get hot, he was suddenly very nervous for tonight.  It took him a moment but he did answer and said "I assure you Y/N you'll be sleeping hard enough that would won't care what temperature the room is or if there is a little bit of sun peaking through the blinds."

Y/N nearly choked because even though she was baiting him, she didn't expect him to take it there.

"So what time will you be here Y/N?"

OH my..GOD, she thought, totally thrown off and totally turned on.  She was trembling with anticipation, nerves, excitement.  "Whatever time you want me QB."

Joe smirked, pleased with himself "Make it six."
