	"You look cute when you smile. I never noticed you're dimples
before. They're nice. Blushing looks good on you Carlos. It makes a guy
feel special knowing he can cause your soulful eyes to twinkle and your
cute face break into a smile. Damn man, those dimples are making me melt,"
he confessed before kissing me.

	My jaw dropped and I'm sure I looked like an idiot. Here was the
guy of my dreams telling me how cute I was. Not only that, but he kissed
me. Did I suddenly fall into an episode of the Twilight Zone? Either way,
what he said made me blush even more and I boldly took his hand and held it
in mine. I gulped and finally responded to his comments.

	"Listen. You're a really handsome and sweet guy, but my boyfriend
just broke up with me a few days ago, and I'm kind of hurting right
now. And I...I...I really want to kiss you again," I said.

	Then I leaned in and kissed him firmly on his lips, hoping to share
all my feelings with that one simple kiss. I broke off our kiss because I
knew there was something I needed to ask him.

	"Adam, are you just messing with me because you're horny and you
want a one time thing, or do you want something more than that; something
deeper? I need to know Adam. I can't let myself get hurt and used again," I
spoke honestly as tears started rolling down my cheeks.

	Adam pulled me into a warm and strong embrace and let me cry into
his shoulder.

	"Listen Carlos, I know how it feels to be used by a guy you really
care about. I know I shouldn't be flirting with you, and I know I shouldn't
have kissed you, especially because my boyfriend broke up with me a few
days ago too. I just can't help it. I don't think I've ever met someone
like you. I can't explain it. Just please trust me. And yes, I do want to
see you after this. Maybe we can go to dinner tonight and I guess see what
happens after?" he reassured me.

	We heard a knock on the door and Alex walked in. She smiled and
showed me the kind of dress she wanted. We decided to add appliqué flowers
to match Adam's shirt. She pulled me to the side and started confessed her
ulterior motive to me

	"I have to admit, I chose this store not just because you work here
and you're one of the best designers, but also because I thought maybe
spending time with you would cheer Adam up. He's been hinting that he
wanted to spend some time with you, and he's been hurting after Sean broke
up with him. I know I shouldn't have done this Carlos. I'm sorry," she said
with a hint of tears in her eyes.

	I pulled her into a hug and let her know it was okay.

	"Alex, it's okay. Adam is a really nice guy, and I admit, I do want
to see what happens between us. I confess, I've been admiring him for a
little while now. He wants to take me out to dinner tonight. God I'm so
nervous. Adam is just....amazing" I reassured Alex.

	I packed up my stuff and walked them to the front. I locked up the
store and walked Alex to her car, as Adam wanted to spend some time with me
before dinner. I kissed Alex on the cheek and I promised to have her dress
done by Friday. She smiled and promised to pay tomorrow.

	Adam and I walked hand in hand to my car. We were going to this
really cool coffee shop to talk and learn more about each other and decide
where to have dinner. I smiled and thought about what a great turn of
events this was, and hoping things would work out between Adam and I.
