Alessia walked into her room after she helped Finn up. Her head was spinning from all the rum she had drank so she sat on her bed, grabbing her phone to check for any missed texts. She had one from the fallen angel she'd met at the club.

Hey, it's Lincoln. I was wondering if you would want to get some coffee or something with me? Any time and place you want... Let me know.

She read the text a few times, thinking over if she wanted to blow him off again. He was insanely hot and great on bed, but she was kind of looking for more than a fuck buddy. She shrugged and decided she'd meet him.

Coffee sounds great. Meet you in half an hour at Java Joe's?

His reply was instant.

Sounds good. ;)

She put her phone down and hopped into the shower. Twenty minutes later her hair was up in a messy bun and she was wearing a light green sun dress. She grabbed her purse and phone and disappeared. She reformed in the alley next to the coffee shop and smoothed her dress down.

'Alright, let's not act too drunk.'

She rounded the corner and entered the coffee shop. The small building was buzzing with people and the smell of coffee filled the room. She took a deep breath and sighed, coffee was life. She looked around the room and found Lincoln sitting at a table across the room from her, his eyes were already on her. He raised a tattooed arm in a wave and a sexy smirk graced his face. She bit her bottom lip and waved back.

'Damn, I forgot how gorgeous he is.'

She made her way over to him, checking him out as she got closer. He wore a simple navy t-shirt that hugged his masculine body and black jeans. She could feel his blue eyes checking her out as well, so she swayed her hips just a little bit more. His hair was slicked back and he'd trimmed his beard just a little since she'd seen him last, she hoped that at some point she could run her hands through his hair again.

Sitting across from him she smiled, "How are you Lincoln?"

"Better, now that I know you aren't blowing me off anymore."

"Oh baby, if I was blowing you off I would've never replied to your texts. I just had to keep you interested."

"After the night we had, how could I not be interested?"

A shiver ran down her spine at the memories from that night.

"So, that's why you got a hold of me. A booty call?"

He placed his hand over his heart and made a pained face, "You think so little of me?"

"Well, I don't really know you. So yeah."

"Let's change that, spend the day with me."

She raised an eyebrow, "You want to spend the day with me?"

"Yes, clothes on and everything. I'll answer anything you want me to and do whatever you want."

There really wasn't any spending a few hours getting to know someone was there? She'd make sure they stayed in public places and as long as she got some coffee in her she'd be fine.

"Alright, deal. You touch my butt or anything else we're done."

"Cross my heart, hope to die."

Alessia got up from her chair, stopping to lean down to Lincoln's ear, "I'd be careful what you say about  dying around me, remember I am Death."

As she walked away she heard Lincoln start to laugh. A smile tugged at her lips, she had a feeling she was going to like that fallen angel.

Warren was leaning against Rosaline while walking to his room. He had insisted he was fine, but every room was spinning and he had broken a few lamps when he tried to walk by himself.
