"Ten days, that's all I need." My eyebrow quirked up at the guy that was sitting across from me who was sporting a extra confident smile. I was trying to convince myself that this was some sort of dream... or if I was lucky enough it was some sick idea of a joke.

"You're really being serious?" I asked. I wasn't curious of his answer; I was really giving him the opportunity to change his mind and just. Walk. Away.

"I'm being very serious, babe, just give me ten days and if your mind hasn't been changed I'll leave you alone."

"But I want you to leave me alone now." I said stubbornly. I wasn't one that craved or even enjoyed being hit on by random strangers and today was no different.

"Where's the fun in that?" He asked with a smirk and if he wasn't a tad bit handsome I probably wouldn't splashed my coffee in his poster boy pretty face.

But my coffee was way too good to throw away.

Also the money I paid for the coffee was too good to throw away.

"So... what do you say?"

"My answer still stands." I shrugged as I picked up my coffee and took a sip. I had texted my best friend exactly seven minute ago telling... no begging him to call me with a fake emergency so I could get out of here. He did it the first three times this guy came up to me but the last time he me bailed out, he got the notion that I should give the sucker a chance.

mikey: just talk to him... I bet he's hot.

That was the reply I had gotten. My response was placing the gun emoji next to his name because he was good as dead. Maybe Mikey thought the guy was hot because he was into that but I really didn't want him playing matchmaker on me. If he wanted a go at the blonde, he could have it; I wasn't going to stand in his way.

"God, you're a lot more boring than you looked." He mumbled bring his cup to his lips. My jaw dropped and my eyebrow shot up in disbelief. Not only did this asshole invade my personal space but he had taken it upon himself to insult my idea of having a good time.

"I'm sorry that not wanting to talk to a stranger in a coffee house is the borderline of being boring." I made and extra effort to not hide the thickness of sarcasm from my voice. "I wasn't aware that was even a rule." I smirked, feeling very pleased with my level of sass.

"But you are talking to a stranger in a coffee house." He pointed out smugly and I rolled my eyes in frustration. I sent my dick of a best friend another message because truth of the matter was that I was too much of a pansy to just up and walk away from him.

Also, the seat was very comfortable and I was here first so by law he should be the one moving.

"Exactly."

"What?" The guy asked sounding genuinely confused and I smirked because I was as well but he didn't have to know that.

"What?" I asked again and I heard him groan. I didn't even need to look up to know he probably was sporting a frown with his eyebrows that I was almost certain he'd gotten done professionally.

mikey: holy shit!!

mikey: I'm busy..

mikey: untie your panites and just entertain him

mikey: Panties*

I didn't even hesitate to add the knife and bomb emoji next to his name.

"Look, just give me ten days."

"Why are you so confident?" I asked looking up at him. He leaned back in his seat and smirked. "I mean, I've made it clear every single time you approach me that I wasn't interested."

"I like a challenge." He said with a shrug.

"How romantic." I mumbled as I finished my coffee.

"I know I try." He said pulling his phone out from his back pocket to check the time. He frowned at the screen and started tapping furiously at it. "Look, I have to go." He said standing and fixing his shirt. He ran his fingers through his hair a few times before turning his attention back to me.

"Work emergency." He said motioning to his phone.

"I didn't ask."

"I'll see you tomorrow." He said with a smile before winking and walking away.
