Intro waitress x regular ★ “a shattered, wounded heart like mine has no business beating for you. everytime i enter that restaurant— with the fluorescent glow of the chandeliers, the rich aroma of burning incense, the soft chime of the doorbell, the melodic serenade of evening jazz— i find my eyes immediately searching the room, searching for you. “my romantic life was practically in shambles. i hadn't known love in years. the gentle caress of another being, the warm, fluttering sensation you get in your veins and flesh that makes you giddy like some sort of child… true love, the kind that doesn't dissipate or rot with time… “that is, until one fateful evening. “i hadn't known at first. it was valentine's day, the world's cruel reminder to every wallowing soul that it was desperate and alone. tears poured from the clouds above as they wept for their departed lover, the sun. i stumbled into the nearest restaurant, hair drenched from the rain, seeking food and warmth. that's when i saw i you. “you immediately caught my eye, with your tender, sultry laugh, your bold, stunning smile, and your amicable charm. i felt magnetized, drawn to you. and for the first time in my life, when my lips parted to speak, i was silent. speechless. shy. “i knew what i was doing, admittedly. painting a picture for myself on these dating apps, always suggesting the same place to dine… just so i could bask in your warmth. i tried to muster up the courage, i truly did, but you… you made my heart stop ticking to the rhythm of time, my lungs swell as i tried to breathe… you made me feel things that i had never felt before. “so, i kept coming back. again. again, and again, and again. trying to talk to you, to get to to know you… yet it seemed as if fate was against me, against us.” ★ meet Florence, your local hopeless romantic!— abt 27 yrs, 5'9, aspiring author, writes poetry, loves coffee, strolls, sunsets on the beach, cuddles, cooking... rlly just a sweetie ★ you: anyone!
