Ta- Ta are you dressed? I yelled up the stairs from the kitchen as I finished cooking bacon.

I heard her little footsteps come down the stairs before she ran into the kitchen and sat at the table.

I'm right here- Ta- Ta

I turned around from the stove to find her sitting at the dining table.

Look who's gotten faster I didn't know you were there.

She giggled as I laid her plate of eggs, waffles with strawberry jam, and bacon.

Umm jammy jam JAM- Ta-Ta

Baby what did I say about indoor voices?

Sorry mommy- Ta-Ta

It's okay eat your food, do you want orange juice or apple juice?

Apple please- Ta-Ta said as she kicked her feet under the chair and a mouth full of waffles.

After giving her a cup of apple juice I kissed her on the forehead and went into the living room to finish getting her things together for school. Ta-ta loved school she loved meeting new people and she gets to see her grandma who is actually the teacher for the class next to hers. She loves her granny if she could she would be with her all the time and my mom feels the exact same way about her. But me and my mom on the other hand have had a lot of ups and down due to me getting pregnant at a young age and her feeling I fell in her footsteps. She wanted a better life for me and she didn't let me forget that for a long time but once she met ta-ta she fell in love and we never talked about after. I guess we just swept it under the rug. Never really sat well with me but my baby is happy so I'm happy.

After getting ta-ta to finish her breakfast I did her hair and drove her to school. Soon as I pulled up to the school my mother was standing in the crowd of children waiting on her granddaughter like she did every

day. I couldn't get ta-ta unbuckled out of her car seat fast enough before she was trying to get to her granny.

GG!!- Ta-ta yelled as she ran up to her granny and hugged her.

I laughed as I grabbed her bag out of the car and headed over to my mother.

Morning ma.

Good morning babies- she said before kissing us both on the forehead.

All of her things are in the bag ma.

Okay sweetie. - Mother

Are you ready to go? She said to ta-ta as she turned to walk with her into the building.

No- Ta-ta said as she turned and ran up to me and hugged my legs

I picked her up and gave her a big hug.

I'll see you later baby.

See you later she said before I kissed her cheek and let her down. I watched as her and my mother walk into the building before I got back into the car. A few blocks away from the school was a little coffee shop that I always stopped at before work. I love that little shop it literally brings me to life plus I never have to find parking because it's not that busy on Tuesdays.

After parking under the oak tree across from the shop I rushed to get to the doors as I seen a group of college kids. I grabbed the door handle and a dark chocolate muscular hand grabbed mines. Before I could look to the right of me and see who it was I heard a voice that was so deep I could feel a tingly feeling go down my spine. To my surprise the voice came from a 6'3 maybe 6'4 smooth skin, sexy lip, and muscular dark chocolate man with the deepest waves I've ever seen in my life and to top it all off he had style. He was looking all types of sexy in his black Calvin Klein modern fit tuxedo with his dark emerald green dress shirt, black tie, and black Stacy Adams.

My apologies- he said sending another wave of trembles down my spine.

No, your fine. (Extremely)

Lady's first he said as he opened the door for me. Walking to the counter felt like the longest walk of my life. I know it was all in my head but I felt like everybody in the café knew what was happening in my panties. I stood there waiting in line with my imagination while the two people in front of me was having problems trying to figure out while a tall is really a small. I suddenly snapped back into reality when I felt a big warm hand on my side as Mr. sexy was trying to help me step to the side so that a few of the customers could get out.

Sorry I guess I was. .

Day dreaming- he said with the sexiest grin before I could finish

Yes I said smiling

I looked at the register still finding the same two people there so I guess I wasn't in my dream long enough.

You know most guys at least buy me dinner first before they start touching on my body. I said keeping my eyes on the register and the dummies in front of me. I heard him do a little chuckle behind me before I felt the warmth of his body on my back and the heat off his face as he leaned to whisper in my ear.

"Most woman I buy dinner for usually tell me their name first, especially if they want me to touch them.. Some more."

I turned around to face him as he straightened himself and held out my hand.

Hello I'm Gabriella.

I don't know if it is because he made me so hot and bothered or if it was because i was still caffeine deprived because of the two idiots at the front, but everything he did it seemed so smooth like he'd been practicing this moment all his life. He politely grabbed my hand kissed it before his eyes slowly traveled from my hand up my arm up my neck and stopped at my eyes.

Nice to meet you Gabriella, my name is Leon he said before the barista said next.

After we both got our coffee we exchanged numbers before going our separate way.

I have to head to work but I'm sure we will be in touch.

I'm really hoping so. - Leon

Well how about this, whenever I run across your mind txt me.

Okay, but what if I run across yours? – Leon

I'll do the same. I said not being able to stop grinning like a little school girl.

Better yet if you start daydreaming again and I happen to be in it just call me. - Leon

I could feel my entire face getting red as I tried to play off that I wasn't daydreaming about him.

You have a deal I said laughing.

I could feel his eyes watching me as I started walking to my red ford fusion. As soon as I shut my car door I heard my phone go off. After rambling through my purse for about 5 minutes I found my phone only to see the message had come from my boss telling me to get to work.
