“Oh, she’s speechless.”

I had my mouth wide open again because he lifted his hand to my face, took his index finger and thumb to gently close my lips.I stared at him, not knowing what to do or say.What is with this man and touching my lips?Well, he must have read my mind because he said, “You have such succulent lips.”

Well.

He then took those same two fingers and put his index finger in his mouth and sucked on it.My eyes became huge and my panties grew moist.What in the hell was going on with this man?

“So, you’re plotting to run from me again, road runner?Especially before I can get your number.”

“W-what?”I stammered.

“Are you plotting to run from me again before I can get your phone number?”he repeated slightly slower.

I couldn’t say that I didn’t run from him because I actually did run.

“I don’t date.”

“Good because neither do I,” he replied as he pulled out his phone.It was some sleek black phone that I’d never seen before.It wasn’t like the rest of the smartphones, but it had a touch screen.

He looked at me and I could see that he wasn’t playing, so I asked, “Well, then what do you do?”

“Would you care to find out?”

“It depends.”

“On what?”he asked.

“On what you are offering.”

“How about for now, I just offer dinner and movie.”

“I don’t date,” I responded.

“So, let’s just call it dinner and a movie.”

I adjusted my bag on my shoulder and sighed.

“Look, Joshua, you seem nice and forceful and all, but I really don’t date, I have a meeting to go to and I’m running late, so if you’ll excuse me.”

“Forceful, huh?You remember my name?”he smiled slyly.

“Uh, I guess.”Oh crap, I misspoke.

“Yeah.Well, since you won’t give me your number, can I get your name?

“Look, I really have to go,” I said as I walked around him.

He started to follow me, so I turned and asked him, “Where are you going?”

“Wherever you are going.I lost you once, I won’t lose you again.So, I’ll just wait until your meeting is over.”

What in the world.This man is crazy.Why do I attract the crazy ones?

“Look…”

He cut me off and said, “I’m not crazy, I just don’t think it’s a coincidence that I ran into you twice, not once but twice.I really wanted to talk to you then, but you ran from me and now a year later, you run into me again, literally.”He moved into my space again, licked his lips and continued, “You are very beautiful, but you still have sad eyes.A woman with your beauty shouldn’t have sad eyes.Let me take you out.It doesn’t have to be a date, but the best way to get to know someone is by spending time with them.”

My shoulders relaxed.He must have noticed, so he continued, “Okay, what do you do for work?”
