She Fell Sweetly (On Hold)

Chapter two

No matter how hard I tried to stop my nerves it isn't working. This is the first big story I have got to cover and I don't want to stuff it up.

The sound of my phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts. Looking down I saw it was Mel. Why would she be calling this time in the morning?

"Hey what's up" I asked deciding to answer.

"Hey Aria it's john, I forgot to ask for your number last night. I thought we could catch up and have some fun."

My phone almost slipped from my hand. I can't believe Mel would get him to call. Since I told her last night I wasn't interested in him.

That's exactly the reason why I called her.

"Sorry John I'm busy. I'm actually running late. It was nice talking to you though. Bye now."

Paising back and forth I couldnt wrap my voice around it but I swear I have meet him somewhere before I don't know where though.

Looking at the time if I leave now I'll be there in the next couple of hours.

Once everything was packed in my car and ready to go. I made sure my house was locked.

If it wasn't for my car radio this trip would feel like it was taking twice as long.

Finally I can see the town in my sight. Which I'm happy about. I also think that my stomach agrees with me. Seeing as I skipped breakfast.

Deciding I'm going to pull over at the first decent cafe. So I can have lunch while getting in contact with the lolly shop owner.

For some reason his name isn't on my information sheet.

Tamping my fingers on the steering wheel while looking around I spot a cafe and from the looks of it it's a good place to eat.

So parking in the first free spot I see. I grabbed the things I need before heading inside.

The cafe seems homey which is nice, also not many people stared at me when I walked through the door.

Sitting down I read over the menu and I decided I'm going to have a coffee and English breakfast.

"How can I help you today dear. " A lady's voice asked making keep look up to see a kind old looking lady. Who I couldn't help but smile at.

"I'll have a large coffee and the English breakfast please." I spoke while handing her the menu and smiling. She returned my smile.

I noted that her name is Dorthy. Which fits her perfectly. I know I don't know her but she just gives me the vibe. Nice vibe.

"Of course dear, it shouldn't be to long." She smiled while walking away.

Deciding that the best time to call the owner would be now. Otherwise he or she will hear me eating on the other side of the phone.

Pushing the call button. I waited patiently for them to answer, but I wasn't expecting what I heard on the other side.

"Hello Floyd speaking." His voice has to be one of the most sexiest ones I have ever heard.

It's that sexy that I don't know where my voice has gone. So clearing my throat so he knows someone is on the other end. I tried my best to speck.

"Hello, my names Aria and I work for Better publishing newspaper. How are you today sir?" Biting my lip while slapping my hand over my eyes. My voice just sounded like a chipmunk. His going to think I am some weirdo.

I don't know why I would care what he thinks though but for some reason I do.

"I'm actually kind of busy at the moment. Lunch is always a crazy time of day here."
