Café Captivation

By Josephine Rousseau

He smiles warmly at me. There is something about the intensity of his gaze that makes my belly flutter a bit.
"And where are you from?" I ask.
"You couldn't tell from my accent?" He teased.
"Ah, playing coy, are we?" I grin. "You sound German to me, but most Germans I know are not so bold...or friendly to strangers," I tease.
"You will find I am not like most Germans you know." He fixes me with that intense gaze again, and I know there is no escaping the inevitable with this one. I also know I don't want to escape.
"Germans are also very direct. I saw someone I wanted to meet." He fixes me with that intense gaze again, and I know there is no escaping the inevitable with this one. I also know I do not want to escape.
We sit in silence, regarding one another. I take a sip of my coffee, trying to calm the flutters in my belly. I find him magnetic. He has a confidence and a presence that fascinates me. I see his gaze sliding over my body, studying me as I study him. I decide that whatever he proposes next, I will accept.
