“Exactly,” he says with a chuckle. Then his green eyes dip briefly to my chest before flicking back up to meet mine. “You feeling okay? You look a little…flushed.
Oh my God, he knows. No, that’s not logical, he wouldn’t know. Unless I wasn’t as quiet as I thought. Jesus, kill me now.“Oh, yeah, I’m fine. You know what they say, it’s hell to get old.”
Will arches a dubious brow at me. “I think you’ve got at least a couple of decades before you start falling apart. You’re anything but old.”
“Maybe so, but I’m plenty older than you, that’s for sure.”
His full lips curve into a wicked half-grin. “You say that like it’s a bad thing.”
Dear God, the man was starting to ooze the kind of bad-boy charm no woman could hold out against, especially not one still riding a sexual high from getting herself off in a café bathroom. “I have to go. Nice meeting you, Will,” I say, ready to make a hasty retreat.
“Nice meetingyou… Shoot, I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name.”
I flash him a smile. “That’s because I didn’t give it to you.”
Then I book it over to my table, quickly pack up my stuff, and pull out my phone as I leave the coffee shop.

I’ve been obsessively checking my computer, waiting to hear from you.
Sara:

Operator 69:
