~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You let out a long sigh of relief when you looked at the clock and realized that it was time to go home. You'd gotten all of your work done for the day and you felt very proud of yourself. You just hoped that your boss didn't find more work to slam on your desk by tomorrow.

Slinging your purse over your shoulder, you got up from your chair and left your office. You called the elevator and rode it down to the lobby before heading for the exit to the building. As you passed by the front desk, you saw your favorite security guard patrolling the lobby.

"Hey, Tanaka!" you called to him and waved.

He quickly turned to face the sound of your beautiful voice and smiled brightly. "(L/n)! Hey! How are you doing?" he responded enthusiastically, making you giggle.

As you paused your journey home to talk to him, you couldn't get over how cute he looked in his uniform. Tanaka had started his task of patrolling the lobby about a week ago, and you'd quickly become acquaintances since you were always coming into the building or leaving to run errands. You didn't mind stopping to talk to him from time to time. He was pretty handsome and it was nice to have someone to vent to.

"I hope you have a wonderful evening, (l/n)," he said and tipped his hat very dramatically with a confident smirk on his face.

"Thank you, Tanaka," you responded with a playful curtsy. He chuckled and held open the door for you as you walked outside.

Once you had started walking up the street, he noticed that something had fallen out of your purse and onto the floor. Even though it looked like a simple receipt, he still wanted to return it in case you were one of those people who held onto every piece of paper given to you. He quickly rushed outside to catch up to you.

As you walked over to your car at the other end of the parking lot, you suddenly heard rushed footsteps behind you. When you turned, you barely had enough time to react before someone reached out towards you and grabbed your purse. "H-Hey!" you growled as you held onto the other end of your purse and tried to pull it back.

The mugger pulled until the strap broke off your purse, and he sprinted away with the purse itself while you held the strap in your hands. You rolled up your sleeves and started taking your heels off so that you could chase him down, but you stopped when you noticed Tanaka running after the man.

"What do you think you're doing?! I command you to stop in the name of justice!" Tanaka growled as he caught up to the man and cornered him. He glared down at the man with that creepy and intimidating smile of his, making the man shudder. Tanaka wrestled your purse out of the man's hand and spat, "Get outta here! People who harass young women like that make me sick!"

The mugger took off sprinting, and Tanaka pulled his walkie talkie out of his pocket to call his fellow police officers and give them the general location of the mugger so that they could capture him if he caused anymore problems. It was doubtful to Tanaka that he would, though, since he was such a lame excuse for a criminal.

You watched in awe as Tanaka proudly strode over to you and handed you your purse. "Here you go, madam," he said with a courteous bow and a smile.

"Thank you so much!" you gasped and hugged him. Even though it was a quick hug, it still left Tanaks feeling warm and fuzzy long after you'd pulled away. You fished around for your car keys and unlocked your car once you found them.

"I'm pretty sure everything is still in there, but you might want to double check just in case," Tanaka advised. You nodded in agreement and thanked him again as you sat down in your car. He tipped his hat again before leaving you alone to return to his duties in the lobby.

As you checked to make sure everything was in your purse, you noticed a receipt in there with some writing on it. You had a tendency to write notes on random slips of paper, which was why you usually lost information. You pulled the receipt out and felt yourself blush when you saw what was written on the back.

Tanaka had written his phone number and name with a big heart next to it.

You couldn't help but chuckle as you started your car. "Oh, Tanaka, you sneaky bastard."
