Nothing seemed out of the ordinary about the night until I noticed your tall, muscular frame smoothly walking towards me.&nbsp;You calmly sat at my table declaring to be my soulmate.&nbsp;Your eyes commanded my attention.&nbsp;I went from relaxed to rigid.&nbsp;Oddly enough, your eyes spoke to me with a familiarity that I knew.&nbsp;But your face, I did not.&nbsp;I was speechless.&nbsp;Transfixed by the magic that seemed to fill an invisible bubble we were now in together.&nbsp;He smiled slightly, igniting a fire in me that I’ve never felt.&nbsp;Or have I? It felt right.&nbsp;From the moment you sat down, time seemed to cease around us.&nbsp;I no longer heard the live band playing In A Sentimental Mood.&nbsp;The couples on the dance floor stood still in a loving and warm embrace.&nbsp;I found your eyes again.&nbsp;A piercing dark green that was an amazing contrast to your dark ebony skin. Something in me wanted to touch you.&nbsp;I felt drawn like a magnet.&nbsp;You smelled of sweet cocoa butter and mangos.&nbsp;It was intoxicating.&nbsp;Am I dreaming?&nbsp;Nothing this enchanting has ever happened to me.&nbsp;You reached for my hand.&nbsp;As much as I wanted to touch you, I recoiled.&nbsp;You asked, “Are you afraid of me”?&nbsp;At this point, I couldn’t mutter a single word.&nbsp;I shook my head no.&nbsp;Still longing to touch you, I forced myself to sit back in my chair. I need to get myself together.&nbsp;I crossed my legs and asked you your name.You smiled again.&nbsp; I wish you’d stop doing that.&nbsp; It’s breaking down this wall I’m trying to build between us.&nbsp; You asked if you could tell me a story.&nbsp; I smartly said “You haven’t told me your name.&nbsp; Let’s start with that!”&nbsp; Your smile grew even wider.&nbsp; Still feisty I see.&nbsp; I’ve always loved that side of you, Adira.&nbsp; My heart began to beat so fast I thought I may pass out.&nbsp; I tried not to show you that you startled me. But you picked up on it. No one calls me that!&nbsp; No one knows that name. Who are you?&nbsp; And what do you want?&nbsp; Are you some type of stalker?&nbsp; Do I need to call security?&nbsp; I go by Ann now! &nbsp; You chuckled softly. Relax My Love. &nbsp; These days I go by Gabe.&nbsp; But you know me by Gabriel. Now, may I tell you a story?&nbsp; Reluctantly I said yes.
