grinned, "Go talk to her, you'll feel better."
    Somehow Danny always knew what he was thinking.  After all these years, and working so closely, it only made sense.  They were in sports together.  They went out on double dates together.  Then after graduation they both decided they wanted to be firefighters.  They loved living on the coast of North Carolina, so there was no reason to move away.
     
    Danny slapped Drew on the back, and just gave him that look.  Basically the look that said, go get the girl!
     
     
    Drew was feeling a bit nervous, which was so like him.  He had been worried all day he had blown his chance of getting to know Isabel.
    When he pulled up to the station, he took a deep breath, and decided it was now or never.
    He waited in the lobby for her, flipping through the various magazines from the coffee table.  He heard foot steps, and looked up to find Isabel walking toward him.  She had a slight grin, a mixture of happiness and confusion in her eyes.
    She stopped just inches from him, "Hi. Everything okay?"
    He was momentarily speechless.  Her scent was intoxicating, with the scent of berries and a hint of vanilla.  He wanted to breathe her in, maybe even run his tongue up the side of her neck and enjoy every last inch of her.  Okay, yeah, he had a problem and he needed to reel himself immediately.
    "Hi."  Drew finally managed to get out, with a slight shake in his voice.  He put his hands in his pockets and looked down for a moment.  He then slowly let his gaze wander the length of her curvaceous body, before settling on those gorgeous green eyes.  "I hope this is not a bad time?  I knew this might be the only way you would let me see you after last night.  I just wanted to apologi....."  He trailed off when Isabel stopped him by touching his arm lightly.
    "You have nothing to apologize for, and actually I think I'm the one who owes you an apology."
    Isabel had never felt more nervous, and more sure at that very moment.  She loved everything about last night, except the way she left.  Her problem was going to be believing in everything he shared with his words, and emotionally.
    "What?  I guess I am a bit confused."  Drew had to sit back down on couch.
    Isabel sat down next to him, their legs just slightly touching.  The heat that radiated between them made this cool room feel like 100 degrees.  "This is not the right time or place, will you be back home tomorrow?"
    Drew knew he could get a few hours away early.  "Yes, but only for a few hours in the morning.  Will you be around?"
    Isabel stood, looked directly in his eyes, "How about I make us some breakfast? I make a mean omelet."
    Drew just laughed softly.  He squeezed her hand, "sounds perfect. See you in the morning!"
     
     
    Isabel awoke earlier then normal.  The sun was shining through the curtains, casting a shimmer of light across her bed.  She knew Drew would be arriving soon, which caused her insides to tingle.
     
    She finally made herself get up, shower, and started working on breakfast.  She was chopping bell peppers when a light knock startled her.  Isabel smiled just at the thought of seeing Drew. Shaking her head, and giggling lightly, she opened the door.
    The sight was breathtaking.  Drew was wearing worn jeans, and a royal blue t-shirt that was tight around his abdomen and biceps.  The blue in his shirt made his eyes look electric, which caused a bit of a fire inside her.
    He smiled, "Well good morning, What are you giggling at?"
    Isabel's eyes light up, "Oh, you don't want to know.  I hope you are hungry?"
    They walked in together with only a breath separating them. Drew grabbed a piece of bell pepper and walked over to Isabel. He looked into her eyes, and without ever taking their eyes from each other, slowly brought the bell pepper to her lips.  She took in a shaky breath, and opened her mouth to the sweet, juicy piece of pepper.  Without thinking she brushed her tongue across her lips.  Drew
