Mia is a massage therapist, and Damien is a physical therapist. Damien brings in a client for a massage, and Mia catches his eye. Despite Mia tuning him down repeatedly, Damien is determined to convince her to go on a date with him.
Mia has tried...
As soon as I got home at 4, I jumped into the shower. I quickly washed my hair and shaved my legs before getting out. I let my hair air dry in messy waves, and put on lotion. Looking through my closet, I decided on a white dress, and a denim jacket. I paired it with brown sandals.

Mom had thankfully gotten Izzy ready while I was on my way home. Amy had gotten here while I was showering, and she was sitting with Izzy on the couch taking selfies. I got my tote bag from the front closet, and put everything I would need in it. Because Izzy was coming, I had to take snacks, and extra water. Just as I finished, the doorbell rang. I opened the door to Damien with his arms full of flowers.
"Hey beautiful." He said with a smile.
"Hey handsome." I said back.
"Awwwww." Isaac said from beside us.
"Hi Isaac." I said smiling at him.
"Hey, Mia." He said, like this wasn't our first time meeting.
"Come on in. Everyone is in the living room." I said
Damien placed a bouquet of daisies in my hands as he kissed me.
"Thank you." I said smiling up at him.
"Mmhmm." He said, stealing another kiss.
I followed him into the living room, and watched as he handed Mom a bouquet of peonies.
"Hi Mama G." he said kissing her cheek.
"Oh, thank you honey!" Mom said as she smelled her flowers.
Damien picked Izzy up off the couch and handed her a bouquet of brightly colored daisies.
"Every princess needs flowers." He said as he kissed her little cheek.
"Mommy! I got frowlers too!" She said, so excited. "Thank you, Bear!" She said as she hugged him, and smashed about half her flowers, but she didn't care.
Damien introduced Isaac and we all put our flowers in the vases he bought for them. Mom made herself a cup of tea, and settled in her chair with her book for a quiet night in.
As we walked out to the cars, I realized everyone wasn't going to fit in my car.
"Damien, I forgot, I have a massage table in my car. We need to move it to get everyone to fit." I said.
"Ok. Or we can move Izzy's seat to my truck, and I'll drive." He said, shrugging.
"Whatever you want to do. Either is fine." I said.
We decided to move her seat. I got it unbuckled, and Damien carried it to his truck. I think it was bigger than he expected, but it worked fine. Damien picked up Izzy to put her in her seat. He noticed that she was looking at Isaac, unsure of him.
"What do you think about Isaac?" He asked her. She buried her face in Damien's neck, being shy. "Hey, he is my best friend, and he is so much fun to be around. He even acts like a four year old sometimes." He said excitedly.
