Bizzy and I have gotten extremely close after the MFBTY photoshoot- and no, I'm not talking about sex. We happen to be saving ourselves for marriage. After the misunderstanding he pleaded with me to go have coffee with him. "Let me make it up to you. Have coffee with me please? Oh please? Oh please? Oh please? Oh please? Oh please?"

He played the aegyo card. How could I say no after that? I made him sweat before I decided to give him an answer though. "Yeah sure." I shrugged nonchalantly, but on the inside I was flipping fantastic.

"Oh Ok. Great." Bizzy said unsure of himself. "I'll pick you up tomorrow at 2:00pm.

"Alright. Goodnight." I kiss his cheek and walk away.

Bizzy's POV:

I was at the warehouse boxing until it was time for my date with Mo. I needed to blow off some of my nervous gitters before I had seen her again. However, it seems like every time I think I'm confident she comes by and makes me feel as if I'm not good enough for her. I know, I know it's a silly notion, but she's just so different... in a good way, of course.

My oponent for the hour caught me off guard when the coach said it was 1:50pm. He hit me with a right jab and cut my cheek. My anger rose and I did a 2 hit combo that knocked him out.

I race to the showers and take a quick wash up and dress up in the extra clothes I brought with me for my date. By the time I make it to JK's house I'm already 30 minutes late. Do I knock on the door or walk away? The door opens before I can make up my mind, and I'm stuck like a deer caught in the headlights.

There standing before me was my African Queen Mo. Even her 'mad' face is sexy. It's like she can do no wrong. "You're late!" Her arms cross under her breast, and I'm drawn to her like a moth to a flame. "Yo! My face is up here." Her hand lifts my face so that I'm looking into her mesmerizing chocolate eyes.

Mo tilts my face and sees the cut I forgot to bandage up. "Who did this to your face? Who do I have to beat up for messing up my baby's handsome face?" I miss the feel of her touching me as soon as she drops her hand from embarrassment.

"It was an accident. I was boxing and lost track of the time." I take her hand in mine and kiss it. Mo bites her bottom lip, and it takes everything in me not to attack her mouth with my own. "I'm sorry about being late. I'd really love it if you would still go with me."

I hear her whimper. "I'd go anywhere with you." I smile at her choice of words. Mo clears her throat. "We can still go, but first let me clean that wound."

We arrive at the coffee shop 15 minutes later. Being in her company is so refeshing. She makes me feel young again. "How old are you?"

My breath catches in my throat. "35... Is my age a deal breaker?"

"No. I happen to love older men..." Mo smiled that beautiful smile that caused my insides to do kartwheels. "We're 10 years apart, but I think it's perfect."

It's now or never Bizzy. You can do this. Just open up your mouth and say it. Don't hesitate. Just go for it. You have nothing to lose.... well except for Mo. "Mo," I placed my hand on top of hers. "Would you do me the honors of being my girlfriend?"

"Seriously? Hell yeah! You had me at hello!" She giggles. I lean over the table and kiss her. We spend the entire day laughing and getting to know each other more. This has been one of the best days of my life.
