dancing smile, and her
self-depreciating humor. She knew how to have a good time. She was
open and honest about everything, and it didn’t seem to hold back
on how she really felt. He wanted to get to know her – her
background, why she ended up in retail, what she wanted out of
life, and what was her true passion.
    It wasn’t insta-love and Dean didn’t
think if he actually believed in that notion. Sure, it worked for
other people and it was the sole reason why romantic comedies were
so popular but it never worked for him. He didn’t expect them to
become a couple – at least not yet – but he wouldn’t mind having a
friend he could call on and talk to every so often.
    Though Dean could admit, he
didn’t like how friend sounded when he thought about Sydney. “I slept pretty good.”
He replied. “Did you want me to call for room service?”
    “I can help pay for it,” Sydney
offered, “I know how expensive room service can be.”
    Dean shook his head. “Don’t worry
about it. Your money is no good with me.”
    Sydney knew Dean was a modern-day
Prince Charming. Most her dates required she went Dutch. She
should’ve known then they were cheap asses. “You’re too kind,” she
smiled.
    It was almost as if the room lit up
with her smile alone. Dean was convinced her smile could compete
with the brightest stars. “It’s no thing.”
    Sydney perused over the menu. She was
so used to the bland oatmeal she ate every morning for breakfast,
she was feeling overwhelmed by the extravagant breakfast options.
Some of the food had words she couldn’t even pronounce even if she
sounded them out. “So what did you want to do today?”
    Dean walked over to the window and
looked out. The city was completely covered in white and it
probably wasn’t a stretch of his imagination to figure out the
airport was completely snowed in. There was only one thing he
wanted to do with Sydney that didn’t involve sweaty and sticky
sexual positions.
    “Let’s make a snowman.”
    ****
    Sydney knew she was not meant for
frigid cold weather. There was a reason why she lived in San
Francisco and gladly stayed there. Sure, San Francisco got pretty
chilly at times; she could recall a time when it dropped down to 23
degrees. But that was still above zero.
    In Chicago, she was pretty sure it was
some insane degree below zero and she didn’t dare to think how far
below it was. Just feeling her teeth clack inside her mouth told
her plenty about the weather.
    Now there she was, looking like a
California snow bunny with as much snow gear anyone could possibly
put on, watching Dean built a makeshift snowman in between
snow-covered cars. “You’re actually building a family?” She
commented.
    “Hell, yeah!” Dean smiled as he put
the finishing touches on the bigger snowman. It was a family of
four and he was thankful he was able to convince the hotel kitchen
to give him the spoiled carrots and olives he needed for the eyes
and nose. Next time he would ask for tomatoes to complete the
mouth. He stepped aside and nodded at his creation. “What do you
think?”
    Sydney shook her head. She watched
with awe and a bit of amusement how serious Dean was about his snow
family. They weren’t big but that was beside the point. He took
care into building them as if he was creating a masterpiece. It was
charming. “You’re insane. That’s incredible.”
    “You should try.” He glanced over to
her. “Just gotta create a couple of snowballs and stack them on top
of each other. “
    “I never made snowballs before.” She
shrugged.
    “What?” Dean had a disgusted face as
if he tasted some horrible food. “What do you mean?”
    “I just never had the opportunity.”
She shrugged again, wondering why what she said was so shocking. “I
can’t miss something if I never did it.”
    “All right, we’re changing that
today.” He walked over to her and picked up a small pile of snow.
He nodded to her to do the same and Sydney complied. “Just
