After the whirlwind of emotions from the night before, I sank into my bed and slept like a baby, completely at peace. The memory of Ethan's kisses and the laughter we shared filled my dreams, wrapping me in a blanket of happiness.

When I finally woke up, sunlight streamed through my curtains, and I felt an instant smile spread across my face. My heart fluttered as I grabbed my phone, and my breath caught in my throat when I saw a message from Ethan.

"Good morning, beautiful! Just wanted to check in and make sure you're not still dreaming about me. How about we meet up for coffee today? I promise I won't spill it on you this time! Let me know what works for you. Can't wait to see that lovely smile again!"

I giggled at his playful message, feeling a rush of warmth. His words felt like a hug, and I couldn't help but feel excited at the prospect of seeing him again. I quickly typed back a response, my heart racing with anticipation for our next adventure together.

I couldn't help but grin as I read Ethan's message. He had such a way of brightening my day. I quickly typed out my response, wanting to match his playful tone.

"Good morning, handsome! I'm awake, but only because I'm dreaming of that coffee. Let's definitely meet up! Just make sure to keep your spills to a minimum—I'd hate for you to start a coffee waterfall and drown in your own brewing disaster! What time do you want to meet?"

I hit send, giggling at my own joke. I could already picture Ethan's smile when he read it. I was ready for whatever adventure our coffee date would bring!

Ethan's reply came through almost immediately, and I couldn't help but smile at his enthusiasm.

"Morning, beautiful! I must say, I like it when you call me handsome. Makes me feel like a movie star, even if my only fan is my cat. I'll pick you up at 10? Can't wait to see you again and maybe even avoid a coffee disaster this time! "

I chuckled at the thought of Ethan strutting around like a movie star, and I felt a flutter of excitement at the prospect of our coffee date.
