Megan ^^^

She was late. Again. Megan worked at Produce Palace. Some days she worked as a cashier, other days she worked back in dairy. Luckily, she worked in dairy today so it wasn't as big of a deal that she was late. She quickly stepped out of her car and tied the back of her apron before rushing in through the front door. One of her friends were already working the front end, so the bosses didn't see her come in.

She waved to her friend, Penny, before clocking in. She went back into the dairy cooler and pulled out a cart filled to the brim with dairy items. Megan pushed it out onto the floor and began running it. The day went on with Megan hating her life. As per usual when she had to do dairy.

A man walked into the dairy section as Megan was filling it. A man so gorgeous, she had to look twice. He had very dark brown hair that was styled upwards. It looked like he had just rolled out of bed, but he still looked, as Megan thought, "yummy." He had nice, groomed eyebrows. A short, well kept beard. Muscles to spare. He was wearing a tight black V neck shirt and grey sweatpants that hung low on his hips. The man was looking over the dairy section with a frown as he bit his lower lip.

"Hello, sir. Can I help you?" Megan chirped in her customer service voice.

The man stiffened at her words. He knew it was her job to speak to others with respect and call them ma'am and sir, but it didn't stop his pants from tightening ever so slightly. He looked over at the young girl. She was barely five foot, he towered over her. She had a very fine tan. Her hair was long and a chocolate color that matched her beautiful eyes. Her lips were pink as plump and overall inviting. He couldn't help but imagine her lips pressed against his.

"Yes you can," the man said with a smirk, before snapping out of it. "I'm looking for shredded cheddar cheese."

Megan smiled and walked a little ways down the diary section and stood on her tip toes to reach two different bags of shredded cheddar cheese. She went back over to the man and held up one in each hand. He smiled at her and took one.

"Thank you sweetheart," he said.

"You're welcome sir!" She said with a smile.

She walked back over to the cheese section and stood on her toes once again to try to put the other one up. The man walked over to her and tapped her shoulder. She turned around and he was just inches away from her now. He took the cheese from her and reached over her and put it up with ease. She couldn't help but take a deep breath of his cologne.

"T-thank you," she said and mentally slapped herself for stuttering.

"You're welcome sweetheart," he said with a smirk.

The man walked away but he stayed in her mind all day.
