ANNA'S POV
He nodded, a relieved smile on his face. "That's fair. I promise not to bring it up again."
I felt myself relax a bit, and I nodded back. "Okay then."
"So where are we going?" I asked.
"Hmmm... I kinda know a very nice coffee shop nearby. It's not far from here and you will love their coffee. It's kinda the best in New York." he said, with a smile.
When he smiled, I took my time to assess him and I realized that he was quite an handsome fellow with his blue eyes and honestly very sexy lips.
But as soon as the thought registered in my mind, I started berating myself for even thinking of something like that.
This was my first time interacting with him and my mind couldn't be thinking something like that.
I was embarrassed by my own thoughts and I looked away to avoid eye contact with him.
"Okay," I said, my voice a bit shaky. "Let's go then."
We walked towards the coffee shop he mentioned, the silence between us a bit uncomfortable.
