DENVER
I'm just gonna thank lords for this moment. Standing here, this late in Krispy Kreme, I never thought I would meet Roya for the second time in the same day, leave alone order the last piece of the donut she wants before her. I need to thank Dave for his sudden Krispy Kreme cravings once we go home.
Some kind of realization flashes in her eyes after a moment and she just stares at me intensely. There's a light tint of pink taking over her cheeks.
"You're the library guy." She states.
I nod. Okay so does she remember my name or not?
"Denver." She says.
She remembers. Thank god.
I nod at her chuckling. "So, sour dough huh?" I say pointing towards the last piece laying there, waiting to be picked up by one of the servers.
"Okay so I told you where the library was this morning, which means you owe me one. I get the donut." She states as if it was obvious.
"Oh no no no, you pointed towards the way you thought the library was in. What if it was the wrong way and I got late because of you?" I state as a possibility.
Uncertainty and regret flashes in her eyes and then she turns towards Ian standing behind her.
"Ian, the direction you went in after walking me to starbucks, was that where the library was?" She asks him hopefully.
"I told you I was going to the library so why would I walk on some other path?" He says in amusement and Roya glares at him. She is hotter when she's angry.
"Yup, the library was that way." He says quickly raising his hands in surrender.
"Thought so." She turns to me with a smile. Her eyes have a certain twinkle.
"I get it." She says to her server.
"Nopes." I say and her server stops again finding this amusing.
"I ordered first." I say, proud of my quick facts.
"Ughh fine!" She huffs.
"I'll get the original glazed." She says to her server who looks at me in disappointment.
Okay. Maybe I went a little too far.
When its time to pay I tell the girl behind the counter to pack the sour dough donut in a different box along with a few other donuts and ask her to give it to the next customer and head out.
I walk towards my car where Dave is waiting and hand him the donuts from the window because he won't let me in without checking first.
"Nice." He grins unlocking the car and I open the door to get in.
"Wait!" I hear the same intoxicating voice from before and turn to find Roya rushing towards me with the box of donuts in her hand. The light wind making her open hair tease her face.
I smile looking at her. God she's beautiful.
"You didn't have to do that, original ones taste good too, here." she says handing out the box to me.
"Come on, we both know nothing beats sour dough." I say smirking and she laughs.
Music to my fucking ears.
"True, wanna split?" She offers.
I was about to refuse when Ian walks towards us with a girl.
"Whoa buddy, now that's a deal I would never say no to." He says offering me his hand, "Ian." He introduces himself.
