"Born and breed sweetheart".

"Would you ever leave?". I asked.

"No".

and I'm sure I will. Do you want more coffee?". I asked getting to my feet. This was somewhat nice. He did seem like a nice guy but I wasn't going to overthink the situation. "Already had enough babe. Besides too much caffeine is bad for you". Raising his eyebrow at me I made a face. You could never have to much caffeine. I was a coffee junkie.
