"Hi."

I stared at my mate. Here she was in front of me, trying to give me a smile but coming off awkward. The confidence she showed all those weeks ago completely gone. She looked like a teenager trying to ask his date out.

"Hello."

She held a faint smirk to her lips as those she was having an inside joke.

"Adelaide Andre."

Confused, she continued on.

"My name, maybe we can do this whole re-introduction thing."

I thought for a second. "Okay then the names Luca."

"No last name?"

"Nope, not giving you that because then you would be able to reject me when you want."

"... You know I have a file on you right."

"Well shit."

She nodded her head and waited for me to finish my sentence

"Fine... My name is Luca Van. Which you all ready know but you know."

She smiled at me and I willed myself to not melt under her voice but I couldn't help the blush that arose on my neck from the naughty thoughts that was running through my mind.

Beowulf was at day care and it was my day off so I was able to breath and finally act like a normal adult without the pressures of dad mode.

"Hey...Hey." I was pulled from my thoughts when snapping fingers were in front of my face. "Back to earth Luca." I looked down at my mate and she stared up at me adorably. "Yes?" I questioned and she frowned at me.

"I was saying would you like to go out to eat with me?" I was taken aback. Was I hearing things right, did my mate just ask me on the date. Staring at her as she looked down at the ground at her shoes kicking the dirt. I still couldn't muster a word and before she could saying anything I just spit it out.

"Yes! I mean yeah I would totally love too."

A bright smile took a hold of her face, making her dark skin seem richer. Her curly red hair seemed to just call out to me to run my fingers through. To examine the different shades of red that laid inside of it. Her hazel brown eyes held a tint of adoration to them, I'm sure she didn't notice it, but I did.

I notice everything especially the way her legs moved while I followed her to her car. The way her beautiful fingers wrapped around the doors handle to open it and the slight turn of her hair as she turned towards me with a slight grin adorning her lips.

"Come on silly pants." I was confused by the change of emotions towards me seeing as she was just trying to reject me but the thought of her actually wanting to try this made my heart swell inside and have me hop in the car.

I might as well milk it for as long as it lasts.
