I step into the fresh, cold, night air, and I wrap my coat around my body a little tighter. I’m thankful with what I chose to wear today, my favorite red heels, my black skirt reaching down to my calves with a back slit, a red blouse, and my big black coat.

I look around the sidewalk when I spot a red Ferrari 458. Wow, that is one hell of a sexy car. I get butterflies when I see it. My eyes travel from the back of the car to the front and spot Alex leaning against it. He’s wearing black suit pants with a gray dress shirt, and his hair is styled neat but a messy way that makes me want to run my fingers through it. I get to his face and his eyes are traveling up and down my body. In the dimly lit street I can make out his eyes are twinkling and he that smirk on his lips. I lick my own when I’m done staring at him.

“You look great Louise.” He steps away from the car and heads towards me. He walks seven steps to greet me but he is still a foot away. I inhale a lungful of air and with that I can smell him. He smells like aftershave, earthy body soap and cinnamon. He smells heavenly.

“Hi… what, what are you even doing here?” I ask after I catch my breath.

“Well, since the other night I can’t stop thinking about you. I am due to collect a date you owe me, I thought why not tonight. I was driving past and saw a few office lights on and my thoughts wandered to you. I guess the stars are aligned because you are still here,” he says with a smirk and starts to walk towards the Ferrari. I follow him to the car and he opens the passenger side door waiting for me to get in. First time in a Ferrari, this should be interesting.

I watch him walk around the front of the car to get to the driver side. He gets into the car but before we take off, he plays with the radio system. He fumbles with a couple of dials before he finds the right station. He seems nervous about me being in the car with him.

“So where are we going,” I ask him, finally breaking the awkward silence.

“Umm, maybe we could try the Brass Monkeys, it’s an English Pub?” Alex looks over to me and awaits my answer.

“Yeah, okay.” I turn the music up and hum along with whatever song is playing. I look out the passenger’s side window and watch the cars drive past. I love seeing the tall buildings light up in the night, and then see the small homes grow dark when everyone is getting ready for bed. The houses start to drift out of sight and I’m looking at nothing but open space.

We have been driving for 20 minutes and then I spot a small pub. It looks like a cabin and pub mashed together, it sends off a friendly vibe.
