~  ~  ~

Having been bored, you stayed up late the night before. Clumsy and a bit sleep deprived you headed to the store for a/some f/f (favorite fruit) in hopes of waking you up a bit. The Birchwood Market. Stocked with only the best products, along with a nicely smoothed wooden exterior/interior. After a 10 min walk from your apartment, you enter. Approaching the produce area, you scan the selection. Taking a brief moment to (ugly) yawn and get a moments shut eye, you become startled with an upbeat voice "A bit tired are ya now?" Bewildered by this too close for comfort guy, you nearly snap and decide you're gonna show him what rage really is in explaining Personal Space .....when you notice him. Like really notice him. Standing there leaning towards you, hands placed in his back pockets. A goofy smile at your reaction, some innocent eyes, and beautiful brown hair that looks like its got caramel highlights in it, along with- oop.. some patiently waiting and now raised brows at the scanning you've been doing to his gorgeous face and hair. Feeling the blood rush to your cheeks as they turn a shade of red from sheer embarrassment, you look away. First down to your shoes, then to the right. Not looking at anything particular, just away. Shyly, you bring your hand across your chest up to rest on the opposite shoulder, you FinAllY respond with: "Uuu. Umm... you know where I can find the f/f?" The handsome stranger smiles once again, noticing your complete dodge to his question. Brushing aside all awkwardness, the gentlemen (you can tell he is one!) gently places his hand on the small of your back guiding you towards the right direction. Responding in that same upbeat voice: "Yep I do know, it's all part of the job. I'll walk you there. So they/those (he's talking about your f/f) your favorite by any chance?" Trying to also be casual you say "Yea it is/they are." The nervousness was to much to conceal and revealed itself in your tone. He takes a look at where his hand is placed('is this making her uncomfortable?'), he quickly takes it off of you and says: "Here, just follow my lead." The warmth his hand was beginning to fade. As soon has his hand was no longer touching, a feeling of want emerged. Leaving your mind to linger. Thinking about it, you had no other plans today. Was he busy? Did he have a girlfriend? Getting one of those clear bags for you, he then asked: "So how much would you like today?" Now focused on his question you respond "Actually just one/one bag(for youuu grape or cherry lovers out there).. Im feeling a little out of it today so Im just trying to wake myself up a bit." 'Yes! I finally sounded normal and not so nervous' Taking an interest to your state he replies: "Ahh. Well hope this makes you feel better. We store only the freshest fruit right here just for you. Um well for all our costumers I mean." 'He must have an interest in me too..' With that thought, you gain some confidence making the decision to ask: "So, Why have I never seen you here before?" Simultaneously tying the green twist on your Bag O' Fruit he responds: "I actually just started working here a few weeks ago and even more recently I got put to greet/help costumers, especially if they look lost-" I cant help but look down again, this time smiling... and think 'Today Im the lost costumer.' He continues "-..sometimes I wander a bit from the front door where they post me, like today I went to the produce. I've got to admit.. I'm glad I did. " *blushing*** 'can he tell I like him too??' You say in shy agreement: "Ah, glad I came to the store today too.." Bending his knees to make eye contact with your downwards facing eyes, he hands you your bag of f/f. "Thanks." Suddenly, turning to go pay, you feel that same warmth you longed for, this time on your shoulder. "Wait, you got any plans today?-" Facing him once again to hear what else he's got to say. "-I know you said your tired but uh ..you know Im tired too, I took the uh early morning shift today.. I get out at noon. ...... Would you be up for some lunch with me?" Now Its like you two have switched situations. For one your gain of confidence and second his nervousness as he kindly asks you out. 'He's cute' "Sure ..Id love too actually." The both of you smile like dorks. CX CX
