”Thank you for today” she tells him at the door of her house, he had walked her to it again.

Several dates later…
Lucy looks up from her desk when someone knocks on her table ”Hi dories, whats up?”
”Hi Luce, there is this cute looking man waiting at the reception, he said he is looking for Annalisa, but she isn’t on seat. He came bearing gifts”
”Who?”

”We didn’t get a name but he got all the ladies swooning and peeking stylishly form their work”
”Okay, thanks. Annalisa would be back, she went to drop some docs with the boss.”
”Okay, just in case she don’t fancy the fellow or tire of him, we are happy to take him off her hands. He is way hotter than the Ex. ”

”Get out of here Doris” Lucy stands walking to the reception area, she sights him and then smiles, turning she went back.
Annalisa comes down dropping into her seat ”So, good news, my story ”My Girl” is up and running. But she said to tell you to come up wit some fashion tips for Saturday flow by COB today”

Lucy nods, ”Gotcha!!” she is smiling.
”Why a are you smiling?” Annalisa frowns at her, then she suddenly realized everyone is looking at her and muttering ”Why is everyone looking at me funny?’
”Well because some sexy hunk from Asgard is waiting in the reception, with flowers and a box of chocolates. It’s for you, obviously”
”Me? Someone came looking for me with flowers and chocolates?”
Lucy nods .

”Who?” She exclaims.
”Oh I think we know a certain dude who is obviously taken with you, with so many dates, who can blame the guy …” she winks.
”Darren? Darren is here?” She seats up.
”Yep, and the ladies about to claw him with their eyes, you go get your man, It’s break time now so, get out of here”
Annalisa blushes ”he isn’t my man Luce”
”Yet! you never know.”

Annalisa picks her bag and then dashes out. When she gets to the reception she slows down and then walks to him. All eyes were on them as he stands up.
”I really don’t want to be a bother but I was around the corner and you told me you worked here so I figured I take a limb out on this one, and I didn’t know if it was appropriate to just drop by and see you so I brought a little bribe, if you don’t mind” he pushes them to her, she takes it smiling.
”You didn’t have to, but, these are nice. Thank you”

”When is your break, I can take you out for lunch?”
”Now!!”
His smile broaden ”Perfect. ” he gives her his hands, she links hers to his
”You go girl!” a few colleagues chants, Annalisa blushes, Darren hides a smile.

”So, I want to ask you a question” He leans closer to her. They are seated opposite each other while the waitress clears their plates.
”Sure, go ahead ”
”You know, we’v hunged out for a while now and I must confess, I do enjoy your company and your craziness”
She laughs ”That’s a sad thing”
”No, it’s a great thing. I like you Annalisa Penelope Bruce. You are like a breathe of fresh air. I look forward to every day I want to see you and I do not have to pretend about anything being with you”
”You are great company too.” She admits.
”And I think. No I know that, I do not want to stop seeing you and stuff.”
”I do enjoy seeing you too”
He nods reaching for her hand and then drawing circles on her palm with his finger. ”Annalisa, will you be my girlfriend?”
He says looking into her eyes.
