Logan had been out walking in the park just enjoying his morning. He didn’t want to be bothered this morning with his business. He was enjoying the morning breeze when he got the feeling he was being followed. He glanced and saw a pretty brunette following around him. She looked harmless so he decided to let her follow.
Who was she? What was she doing? He decided to confront her because he was bored anyway and thought maybe she was interesting. He moved and hid behind the tree waiting on her to walk by. As she walked by he called out to her “if you want to follow me, you could at least let me buy you a drink.”
Geonna had been in a trance, finally, brought on by the ability to write coherently. F I N A L L Y. That was why she hadn’t noticed that her muse had gone missing -- well, not until his voice punched all of the air out of her petite frame. The girl was certain that she cleared a few inches in shock. Her hand would have moved to her heart and apologized if she had the courage to admit that she was, in fact, following him. Instead, her arms folded into one another as she scoffed, trying to play it cool...which was not her strong-suit. “Me? Oh, no, I was just...walking. Writing. Breathing fresh air. I did not notice you...?” Maybe it would have sounded more believable if she didn’t question herself. Or if her cheeks weren’t growing warmer every passing second under pressure.
Was she opposed to the drink, though? No. Coffee sounded good, but if he meant alcohol at a later time in the day, well, that sounded better, but as her still widened blue hues observed him, she knew she wasn’t equipped for his company. The toolbox of vernacular life had supplied her wasn’t relevant to his lifestyle, or what she assumed it to be. She was a regular ‘ol writer ( aspiring ) that fell into step with the rhythm of whatever town she was in. Geonna couldn’t bring anything to his table besides a good lasagna and boring tales. So she simply waved her hand and tucked her journal under her other arm. “No, no, you do not have to do that. I’m sure you have other things to do, other...obligations?” As she swallowed hard at the thought of how risque those obligations may be, it became more and more clear that playing it cool was definitely not going to happen here.
