SAVANNAH

I blinked at the smirking emoji he sent with that, making it pretty evident what he really meant.Unwarranted images flashed across my mind and heat crawled up my neck.

JAXON
Relax, just a little joke.
Favorite color?
SAVANNAH
White.Or dark blue.
Let me guess, yours is black like your soul
JAXON
I do look good in black
But no, it's red.
My lips twitched.
JAXON
What's your coffee order?
I furrowed my brows.That one wasn't in the list of questions… at least, I couldn't remember if it was.
SAVANNAH
Anything with cinnamon.
Usually a cinnamon latte with whipped cream.
JAXON
Cute.
Black.Dark roast.No sugar.
