Several minutes passed as Violette did not take any notice on the man shamelessly watching her read.

“Good book?” Violette jumped at the smooth voice and looked up to the blue eyed angel sipping a latte next to her.

“Ex-excuse me?” She shyly stumbled over her words unable to look away from his intense gaze.

Violette could not fathom why this man was interested in talking to her. With her slightly damp hair, and her boring work clothes she could only imagine how she looked. No one ever saw anything in her that sought out any attention. Especially not gorgeous strangers, who were potentially famous. She could feel a red flush building behind the light freckles on her cheeks.

“The book you are reading, is it good?” He tilted his head as he asked with a small smile on his face.

“Yea, so far it’s very good.” She smiled as best she could, taking the opportunity of staring at him to try and place his face.

“Hmm, personally I am not one for vampire stories. Usually they are not my taste I suppose you could say.” His smile broadened slightly to one side as he said this.

 “Have you read ‘New Moon’?” He did not seem the type she would have thought.

“I read the series recently, it was sort of recommended by someone.” His eyes seemed to be laughing as he said this, as though he were enjoying a personal joke.

“Oh.” Words seemed to be failing her as she desperately tried to think of what to say next.

“Where are my manors, I didn’t introduce myself did I?” He shook his head not waiting for an answer.

“My name is Grayson Abbott” He bowed his head in a greeting gesture that made her smile.

“Nice to meet you Grayson, I’m Violette.” Violette awkwardly held her hand out to him, unsure of why she had stuck her hand out in the first place.

She watched Grayson stare at her hand as if equally as unsure what to do with it, then he reached his long elegant fingers to hers.

Violette’s eyes shot up to him as she met his ice cold fingers and a chill racked through her whole body as if she had been shocked. Without thinking she pulled her hand back to her lap and looked away from Grayson’s eyes.
