Carlee was sitting in the diner in a corner booth on Valentine's Day, just enjoying a cheeseburger and some french fries, and a diet cola. She was kind of depressed because she had broken up with her boyfriend that morning. She had caught him in bed with another woman the previous night and had called off the relationship. So here she was, eating in a busy diner downtown, trying to figure out what made her boyfriend cheat on her. She picked up her soda and took a drink and just happened to glance toward the door to see something that would have knocked her socks off if she wasn't wearing shoes.
There came through the door the most gorgeous man Carlee had ever seen. He was young (she guessed about 24 or so), tall, probably about 6'4", lean and muscular, with dirty blonde hair, and a blonde goatee. He was wearing tight black jeans which showed off his ass and package perfectly, a Ski-doo snowmobile jacket, and work boots that looked as if they'd seen better days. He had at just that moment been looking around the place as if he'd never been here before. His eyes lit upon Carlee and he smiled. She noticed his eyes were dreamy and a beautiful ice blue color. She glanced down at her burger, then back up.
"Oh my God! He's coming this way!" Carlee said to herself. She absently ran her fingers through her bleach blonde hair as he came closer, his strides eating up the floor between them. Seconds later, she looked up to see him standing by her table.
"Hello there. I'm John Mitchell. Is this seat taken?" he asked as he pointed to the bench across from her. She was too surprised by his deep voice to answer so she just shook her head no. "May I sit down? There doesn't seem to be any other seats available, and I'm starving!" he replied, and she nodded that he could sit, which he did. "What's your name, beautiful?" he asked her with a smile that was so sexy that Carlee felt her heart melting in her chest.
"C-C-Carlee St Cloud. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Mitchell." she said in a low voice as a blush spread across her face. He smiled again and held out his hand. She took it and they shook hands as a waitress approached. When his hand touched hers, a jolt of awareness shot through her, right to her pussy. She felt the moisture gathering there, and she didn't even know this man. The waitress took John's order, a steak, baked potato, corn, and a beer from the tap, and she left them. John still hadn't released her hand. He was idly stroking the back of her hand with his thumb and she felt perfectly comfortable with it too, which surprised her.
"So Carlee St. Cloud, do you live around here?" John asked her.
"Yes, I do. Just down the street actually. How about you, Mr. Mitchell?" she replied.
"Please, call me John. All my friends do, and I'd like it if you would too. And in answer to your question, no. I'm not from around here although I'm looking into moving here. I'm from Denver and have had a sort of "falling out" with my family over an ex-girlfriend who claimed I was the father of her baby, which, of course, I'm not, so I decided to move here to New York and get away from all that." he said. She knew just what he was going through, an almost similar situation to what she was in.
"I know what you mean, John. I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years because I caught him in bed with my best friend Rachel yesterday morning. Needless to say, he's out of my life, and Rachel isn't my best friend anymore." she said, feeling very comfortable telling him about her problems. Then she said, "I don't know why, but I feel as if I've met you before somehow. Usually I'm very nervous around new people, but I feel very comfortable with you, John. Wow, talk about dejavue! Hahaha!"
"That's too bad about your losing your best friend, Carlee. You wouldn't happen to be looking for a new best friend, would ya?" he asked with a wink. She smiled and he said, "Wow! You have a beautiful smile! Your boyfriend was nuts to cheat on you. You are a very beautiful woman. How old are you, Carlee?" She blushed and looked down at her plate.
She was going to thank him for the comment, but at that moment, the waitress arrived with his meal, so they both ate and chatted about the town and its sights worth seeing, and whether there were any decent houses or apartments available for rent in the area. The waitress brought them coffee and refilled Carlee's soda, and John ordered two slices of hot apple pie for them.
Half an hour later, Carlee and John were finished eating, their empty plates on the table in front of them. John asked her, "How about showing a new-comer around the town? Then maybe we could catch a movie at the theater if there's one in this town."
She smiled and said, "We have a theater, but it only runs one movie at a time, and this week I think the film is some love story. I'm not sure of the title though. But yes John, I'd love to show you around town and see a movie with you. I would like to go home to change my clothes though. I worked this morning and came right to the diner after work, so I'd like to grab a shower and clean up first. I work at the local animal shelter here in town, and it's a pretty smelly job sometimes."
"That's fine. How about we meet back here in, say...an hour or so?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
