RUBI POV

"Oh you have got to be kidding me." I huff, stopping in my tracks and leaning down to retie my shoe laces for the third time this morning.

I start running again as the slight morning breeze whistles through the trees. The running track underneath my feet crunches with each step from the fallen leaves scattered on the ground.

It's was just 6:30 in the morning. Running is the best stress reliever, it clears my mind to face another day.

'Starting over is never easy. Saying goodbye was hard, especially to new friends. They never understood why I needed to leave, but that didn't make it any easier leaving them behind.' I thought

I stopped running when I was neared my house .

I bent over resting my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath. I groan when I realise my shoe laces were undone again.

As I bent down to retie them, I noticed a lady with the cutest golden retriever.

The dog was running to catch a ball her owner just threw. I kept my eyes on her as I jogged my way to my house.

When suddenly a body slams into me. I stop dead in my track when I feel a hot liquid pour all down the front of my sports bra and leggings.

I reluctantly peel my eyes away from the dog only to be greeted with a sight ten times better.

His warm brown eyes were the first to capture my attention and his sexy police uniform.

I look down at myself before internally face palming myself. Great, Rubi. Sweaty and sticky.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't see you I-I you came out of nowhere and-" He rambles before I cut him off.

"No, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention, I was to distracted by the cute golden retriever over there." I point my thumb towards the dog.

Poor Charlie just lost his coffee, there's no reason to make him feel worse.

I'd be upset if I lost my coffee.

"Listen, I'm really Sorry about your coffee." I start.
"I'll make you one. Since I'm now wearing yours. Well of course if you have time." I suggest, gesturing down to my workout clothes now strained with his coffee.

He gazes down my body before subtly licking his bottom lip. "Oh no, you don't have to do that.
Honestly it was my fault ." He nods, smiled at me which I return back.

"Okay, I'm sorry anyways." I mutter, trying to hide the disappointment in my voice.

"Well." I said . Biting my lip suddenly feeling really nervous.
