"What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie?"
Instantly, Sawyer frowns, an unimpressed expression on his face.
I continue to smile at him, urging him to ask as I grab his shoulders and shake him, "C'mon, Sawyer, you gotta ask!! What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie??"
He shakes his head, turning away from me as he presses his tongue to inside of his mouth. Flatly, he states, rubbing his face, "We're not doing this shit, Mari."
"Yes we are!!!" I snort loudly as he scowls at me. Poking his shoulder, I ask, "You ready?!!"
"No."
"I'm gonna say it."
"No, you're not-"
"SoFISHticated."
"You're a fucking idiot."

*Lengthy Chapters!!*
(Also!!! Currently adding in some chapters to fill in a plot hole I noticed!! May take some time!!)
Marianne Parker and Sawyer Cortez are complete opposites of each other.
Marianne believes in finding the good in everything around her. Always smiling, laughing, kind to everyone, and definitely an optimist. With a bubbly attitude and an outgoing personality, she's always looking to make a new friend, and all around a ray of sunshine.
Sawyer, on the other hand, is blunt, rude, and pessimistic. He doesn't believe there could be good in everything. He doesn't smile, doesn't laugh, isn't interested in making new friends or socializing. Hell, he BARELY tolerates his own friends. The total definition of a raincloud.
But, when Sawyer meets Marianne, it becomes all too clear that there's something about her he can't ignore. From the way she walks, talks, laughs, and smiles. It's all distracting to him, and he doesn't like that. In his efforts, he tries to ignore it and avoid her. But that can be hard when the girl in question, AKA Marianne, is EQUALLY interested in him too.

"So what do you admire most about women?" I ask the man as he sips on his coffee.
He smirks as he sets his cup down, acting as if my question was some sort of joke, "Her complete submission, of course."
I hum, disproving greatly of this answer as well as all the others before. "Birdie is not the type of submissive to give complete submission easily. What is your plan with that?" I ask him.
He just laughs, "Every submissive can be broken in, it is only a test of a dominant's will," he says with a smirk.
I smile tightly and slide his application into my folder, having all the answers I need.
"So when do I get to meet her?" He asks, suddenly standing as he sees me gathering my things.
I smile for real now, taking great pleasure in this part of the project. "Birdie is a flame in need of stoking, not extinguishing. I appreciate your time, but I have a lot of other candidates-"
"There is nothing wrong with me holding my submissive up to high standards. I'm an incredibly experienced dominant and-"
"This has nothing to do with your experience level. Like I said before-" I try to explain again before he once again cuts me off.
He raises his voice going on about himself. I doubt he really cared for Birdie all that much. He's never met her. This is an ego thing.
"You have a nice day," I tell him with a sigh, turning and checking my watch as I leave the coffee shop.
Appointment four down, six more to go.
