First Date
Cassie paced the small living room, she was beyond nervous. Her first date since moving to small town Connecticut. She left the hustle and bustle of Atlanta, wanting to leave her past behind. She was lucky enough to find a job in a coffee shop owned by an ailing woman, so she bought in, putting all her savings into buying half the shop. It was fun, something new, kept her busy. That is where she met Walter Marshall, the town’s quiet cop, who just happened to be drop dead gorgeous.
Cassie smoothed her hands on the dark green flora dress, she had grabbed a jean jacket just in case, it was spring, but spring this far north was still a little cold. There was a soft knock at her door, and she waited a heartbeat before answering it. She looked up at Walter, a smile on her face.
“Hey, you look...great...it really just complements your skin.” and curves Walter thought.
Cassie looked down at her outfit, dark green was her color, against her pretty brown skin, it was the perfect choice. Her twist out came out perfect and she complimented it with a gold headband.
“Thank you Walter.”
Walter Surprised her by giving her a hug and Cassie breath caught in her throat. She smelled great, like a man, warm, oak, coffee, she inhaled deeply. He pulled her out the house, only letting go of her hand so she could lock the door. Walter opened the door for her, before going around to his side.
“You didn't have to pick me up.”
“It's fine, I wanted to spend more time with you.” he gave her his signature shy smile.
The same shy smile that came into the coffee shop day after day for black coffee, one cream and one sugar. The same shy smile that started to linger instead of taking his cup right back to the station or his patrol car. When that shy smile asked her out, of course she said yes, after a little stuttering.
“So where are you taking me?”
“It is a surprise, I hope you are up for a drive, it’s in the next town over.” he glanced at her.
“I have nothing but time Mr. Marshal. How was your day?”
They broke into a smooth and comfortable conversation, peppered with Walter pointing out things along the way. Watching Connecticut bloom was breathtaking to her.
“No way, I have heard about this place.”
“My daughter says it's fun, so let's see.”
Once again he opened the door for her before holding her hand to the entrance of the arcade. At the door their hands were stamped to show they were older than 21 and Walter was told he couldn't bring his gun into the arcade.
“Sorry. Let me run and put it in the truck.”
“I'll wait here.”
Cassie watched his back as he jogged to the car, his curls bouncing in the wind, she wondered what they felt like.
Once inside they made a beeline for the coin machine, this was still an old school arcade, coin machines that might take your quarter if you weren't careful. They found a packman in the corner and set to work, Spencer getting the two bears and some fries to share. They circuited around the arcade, trying their hands at different games.
At a zombie shooting game, Walter tried to correct her stance. Standing his strong lean body behind her. His muscular arms, circled her, fixing her elbow,
“I can make you shooting one day, if you like, I think everyone should know how.”
“I would like that, a lot.” It was beyond time she learned, probably would have helped her back home.
“No problem princess.”
Cassie smiled at the princess, being around Walter made her feel safe and protected, something she never felt before.
After the arcade he took her to dinner, once again everything was easy going and flowing, unlike anything she had ever felt before. Walter was the perfect gentleman, keeping a smile all over her face the whole night.
Walter walked her to her door, giving her a kiss on the lips before bidding her goodnight. He didn't move from the door until he heard it lock. Cassie stood on the other side, with a dopey smile on her face.
