Up at 7:00 and had to go to the convenience store this morning for some creamer. Would be a quick in and out so why bother changing. So off I went in the rain in a wrinkled shirt, sleeping pants, and flip flops. I had at least pulled my hair back so help with the bed head. So I get there run inside and who do I run into, but BIG Ben. Why is he there? He shouldn't be there? He is supposed to be at work already. Oh, took the day off to help family before winter. In the rain? Oh, pre-planned vacation day. Took two days for veterans day.
So there I am, looking every bit of a midnight Walmart shopper, and he looks me up and down and says "damn, you can make anything look sexy." Thought he was joking until I focused on that look he was giving me. Instantly flushed. I needed him. He had time. I forgot the creamer.
