Finally a Break

After a few weeks of nonstop work and trying to avoid a walking, talking magazine ad of a man, Autumn was in desperate need of a break. She decided to grab one of her favorite books and head to the Summer festival for some nice fresh air. Just when the chapters were getting good, a familiar figure appeared in front of her. Theo: I thought that was you. Autumn: Oh great. Are you stalking me now? Theo: Wow, it's almost as if we live in the same town. Can't a guy get some fresh air? Autumn: Not when I'm here at least. Theo: Ouch, so you avoid me at work and out of work too? Autumn: As much as I can. Theo: What if I don't want that?

Playing Along

And so Theo and Autumn enjoyed their evening. The air was filled with drinks, dancing, and lots of cheesy pick-up lines. All of which Autumn teased but played along. She was here for just a bit of fun after all, right?

A New Beginning

Autumn Bell grew up in the foster system, never knowing her parents and never being adopted. Her childhood taught her to be frugal and resourceful, always stretching what little she had. Hoping to be chosen, she became a perfectionist, while caring for other orphans nurtured her gentle, protective side. When the loneliness became too heavy, Autumn found comfort in books—worlds where she could belong, if only for a while. Those stories sparked her lifelong dream of becoming a writer. Now an adult in Saffron Bay, Autumn has traded the orphanage walls for a small apartment and a job in journalism. It’s not quite the dream, but it keeps her close to words and stories until she can publish her own. Brave, driven, and endlessly hopeful, Autumn Bell continues to write her way toward the life she’s always imagined. Traits: Frugal, Perfectionist, Brave, Nurturing, Bookworm Favorite Music: Indie Favorite Food: Dim Sum Favorite Color: Spiceberry Welcome to a new family/legacy! Happy to be back in the game!

Good Company

Theo and Autumn spent the rest of the afternoon together into the evening. The sunset looked so beautiful, so they decided to walk along the shore also. Their conversations and laughter filled the air with genuine joy. At first, Autumn only thought that Theo had a way with words just to impress others, mostly women. But now she was beginning to see more than she originally thought. Theo was letting his guard down, and for once, so was she.

It's Complicated

As soon as she got home from work, Autumn put on the comfiest of clothes and plopped on the sofa with a huge sigh. Why did he have to be her supervisor? How was he so cocky? And why can't she stop thinking about him?

Wowza

As they danced, their bodies in perfect tune, both had that look on their face yearning for more. Autumn gave in to Theo's temptation and kissed him. Not to toot his own horn, but Theo has shared plenty of kisses in his days. But this kiss felt different. It was as if his whole life had been in black and white, and just now he could finally see color. Wishing he could stop time so that this kiss would never end. Oh, and you know Autumn felt that too.
