her. She gave me directions to her townhome.
    It looked huge from the outside. I offered to walk in with her she said it was okay. She gave me her number and said I could call her in the morning. All the way home she is all I could think about. Brody still wasn’t home when I got there. I was tired next thing I knew it was morning.
     
    Me: Hey pretty lady, would you like to grab brunch and site see with me?
    Lila: Hey you, of course. Pick me up in an hour?
    Me: I will be there… Can I bring you a coffee?
    Lila: Thanks, but Nikki already did. ;)
    Me: Okay, see you soon!
     

     
    When I picked Lila, up she looked as pretty as she did last night. I wanted to take her to Central Park but first we headed to the café. The waitress approached us and we placed our order. I ordered my regular cowboy omelet and home fries. She ordered scrambled eggs and bacon, and toast with apple butter.
    “Lila, if you like apple butter, you should taste the kind my gran makes. It’s the best. My grandparents live on a farm in Alabama.”
    She had the sweetest look on her face and said, “That would be great, next time you go bring me some back.”
    We left the café and went to Central Park, the trees in the park were beautiful this time of year. I told Lila about my family and Utah. She grew up in California, I knew she sounded like a valley girl. She told me about her family and friends, still no mention of a boyfriend.
    Her blue eyes sparkled in the sunlight. I think this will be the beginning of a beautiful friendship and hopefully more. It was getting a little late, so I took Lila back home. I wasn’t ready for our day to end.
    I walked her to the door and as she opened it she, hurried up and closed it back and busted into laughter. She was laughing so hard I couldn’t understand what she was saying.
    “Lila, what is so funny darlin’?” I asked, she turned to me and covered her mouth and still laughed. She placed her hand on my arm and walked off the steps.
    “Evan, I just seen Brody’s bare ass.” She whisper yells.
    “Well, that’s not a pretty sight! Let’s grab dinner and a movie.” I said as we walked back to my car. We went to the Chipotle around the corner and then went to see the latest action movie, I was surprised she wanted to watch it. Most chicks would have went for the drama, not Lila though.
    I took, her home and hoped she would let me take her out again.
    “Lila, I will be singing at a little bar a few miles away, I would love it if you came to watch.” I said to her, before walking her to her door. I wanted to hug her so bad, but I didn’t want to over step any boundaries.
    “Sure, I would love to hear you sing.” Lila said, just as she started to turn the door knob I, I grabbed her hips and pulled her in for a hug. She didn’t hesitate she hugged me right back, as I let go her hair brushed across my face. I could smell her perfume it gave me goose bumps it smelled so good.
    “I will call you tomorrow, darlin’.” I said as I walked away.
     

     

 

     
    I was singing at Zeb’s tonight. I was nervous as hell. Only because I knew Lila would be there. I started getting ready I wanted to look my best. I wore a pair of jeans with a grey and black button down shirt. Of course I wore a black cowboy hat and my favorite boots.
    “Hey man, you seem so nervous tonight.” Said Brody as he walked up and gave me a fist bump. Fuck, even my palms was sweating.
    “Dude, I’m nervous! Lila will be here any minute and I don’t want to look like a fucking moron. What if she doesn’t like my singing voice, or the way I play my guitar? I don’t want to scare her away.” I walked out on the stage and looked around, but I didn’t see or anywhere.
    I sat on the stool and took my pick out of my shirt pocket. I propped my legs up on my stool and looked out into the crowd. Once our eyes connected I could feel my heart drop. That spark in those beautiful baby blues, she smiled and her dimples gave me the fucking
