Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Coffee

Loki: Purrrrrrrr

Per usual my auto alarm named Loki never fails to wake me every morning at 6am on the dot.

Willow: Loki where's your snooze button.

He meows at me in protest as I pull the covers over my head.

But as it dawns on me that I have a coffee date in a little over an hour I fly out of the bed and scramble to get ready.

I arrive at the Coffee bean a few minutes early and as I make my way to the front entrance I am greeted by the most charming smile, and heavenly golden eyes.

Even more handsome then I remember from last night and after hours on the phone I feel like we're already at a comfortable friendship stage.

Liam: Good morning beautiful

Liam gracefully wraps one hand around my waist and bends down to kiss my cheek.

Yup very comfortable.

Willow: Good morning.

Keeping his hand at the small of my back he leads me into the coffee shop.

The 20 something year old pretty red head barista greets Liam with a flirtatious smile.

Barista: Morning Liam, usual?

Liam looks at me.

Liam: I know how you like your coffee what about breakfast.

Willow: What is your usual?

Liam: Ham and cheese croissant.

Willow: That sounds good.

Liam: Double the usual today please Candy.

Candy: You got it

After we get our order, we make our way to the outdoor patio. I sip my coffee and it is the best coffee ever. Then I bite into the warm ham croissant and wow. It melts in my mouth.

Liam is grinning like a boy seeing a girl eat for the first time.

Liam: I take it you like everything.

Willow: I can't believe I've been missing out on this all these years. You have great taste.

Liam: Yeah, I think so.

He gives me a sweet look and seductive wink that makes me blush.
