HELLO LOVELIES XO. HERE IS THE NEXT UPDATED PART AS PROMISED, PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK!!

As I admire Cal walking away and back into his black car, I whisper to myself,

"I wish I could tell you the things you do to me.."

I sigh heavily and make my way into the building and up to my floor to finish my submissions for the day before going out tonight. I really hated the fact I've always found it hard to openly express my feelings towards men I've been interested in. So it's not a surprise this is happening now because it involves a guy who is possibly the best looking person I have ever met, and on top of that he is incredibly intimidating. I don't know much about him, or if I truly believe his reputation the public has portrayed of him. Has he really been with that many women? Why all of a sudden is he interested in me? Someone who is clearly not used to his lifestyle and has never been in the limelight. What could I possibly offer him?  So many questions began to swim in my head and overwhelm me,

"Lena stop overthinking everything.."

I thought to myself.

I was so deep in my head I didn't even realize I had made it to my floor and an older women was waiting for me to get off the elevator, a look of impatience clearly expressed all over her features. 

I apologized and made my way towards my desk. Mia was sitting on the one side in her chair she had pulled up. She was working on half of the pile of submissions I still had yet to finish, I instantly felt a weight lift off my shoulders.

"Have I ever told you I loved you?"

I ask Mia as I throw my body into my chair and grab the remaining pile of submissions. Mia peers up from reading and smiles towards me,

"Not as of late, you should tell me more"

"Well I'm telling you now, I owe you one"

Mia beams over at me with a child like smile and says while looking back down to continue reading,

"Just buy me a few drinks tonight, and I'll call it even"

It was now 5:30 pm and normally Mia and I are already at home making a sad excuse of a dinner and then heading to the couch to watch Gossip Girl on Netflix, but sadly we were just finishing up at work. We both were exhausted, physically and mentally. We had a bunch of paper cuts, our eyes were burning, and we couldn't think straight anymore. We turned in our submissions to our boss's mailbox and then headed down the elevator to finally head home really quick to get changed to go out for dinner/drinks with Tyler. Tyler told Mia he would meet us there around 7 pm so Mia and I were rushing back home so we'd have enough time to get ready. 

Mia and I opted on wearing just jeans and sweaters, keeping it pretty casual. I chose a burnt orange colored sweater, going with the whole autumn season, some dark black skinny jeans and some booties. While Mia wore a white sweater, some boyfriend jeans, and some slip on vans, as always she looked effortlessly stunning. We hurried out the door after changing and walked towards O'Hara's to meet up with Tyler. 

As we walked into the restaurant I saw Tyler sitting at a table off to the side near the window. Tyler was rather tall, at least 6 foot with dark brown hair and green eyes. He was wearing some jeans, a t-shirt, and an olive green fall jacket that was hanging on the back of his chair. Before we got to the table he turned in our direction and smiled, he looked like a young boy, just like the day I met him. I returned the smile as he stood and wrapped me up in a big hug, lifting me off the ground. He said through my hair, coming out slightly muffled,

"Hello Lena I've missed you"

He set me back down and I smiled up at him returning the gesture,

"Hi Ty, I've missed you too. It's been a while, how have you been?"
