It's cool rainy day in October. The leaves had begun to change and fall of the trees. A young college man is sitting in the corner of a small coffee shop. His longer Brown hair pulled back into bun to keep it out of his way as he typed on his laptop. His paper was due today and he needed no distractions. He took a sip of his chi tea latte when the bell on the door rang signaling someone had come into the little coffee shop. When he looked up he couldn't believe his eyes. A person of pure beauty was standing in the doorway soaked by the rain. He looked the person over and noticed something unusual. The person was wearing a flowy black skirt with a yellow and black stripped long sleeve shirt. This person had their hair pulled out of their face with a flower head band and had natural looking make up on. Despite the outfit he could tell the person was physically male

"Hey gigantor, what are you staring at?"

He snapped out of his trance has the person spoke to him.

"You're just so beautiful." He replied before thinking. He bit his lip as we waited for the stranger to respond.

"Well you're not bad yourself. How about I get my drink then join you?"

He nodded unable to speak. He watched this person walk up to the counter. He swore they were swaying their hips to get to him.

After several minutes the person came and sat down across from him.

"Now gigantor, do you have a name?"

He set his latte down looking at the person and forgot what he was going to say.

The eyes he was staring into were sunshine through a glass of whiskey. The golden orbs pierced into his soul.

"Samuel, but everyone calls me Sam. What about you?"

"The name's Gabriel." Gabriel smiled taking a sip of his coffee.

Sam noticed Gabriel was shivering from being soaked by the ran.

"Here" Sam said as he took off his jacket and handed it to Gabriel.

"Thank you samsquatch, such a gentleman."

Sam smiled at the nickname. He had only known this man, Sam guessed, for 20 minutes and Gabriel was giving him nicknames.

"So go ahead and ask" Gabriel sat his coffee down.

"Ask what?" Sam shut his laptop.

"Oh I know you know. What's up with the clothes? Well I'm Genderfluid."

Sam thought for a moment. "Gender what? "

Gabriel smiled kindly. "Genderfluid. It means my gender changes. Some days I feel like a guy, others a girl, sometimes a mix both, others no gender at all. Don't worry. Gabriel is my name and if it's not to much to ask I prefer they/them/their pronouns so please refer to me as that."

Sam listened intensely to this information intensely. He was entranced by this person that was so different.

"I'll try my best" Sam smiled at them and the smiled he received made his heart race. They were really beautiful.

Gabriel looked at their watch shot up.

"Shit, I'm late and pardon my French and me, but I have to go." Gabriel got up quickly grabbing his coffee.

As Gabriel reached the door, Sam registered what was happened.

"Wait. Gabriel?" Sam halfway shouted which got their attention causing them to stop.

"Will I see you again?"

Gabriel smiled a smiled that spelled trouble.

"That's for me to know and you to find, Samsquatch."

With that Gabriel left leaving Sam sitting there by the window stunned. After he snapped out of it he realized Gabriel had taken his jacket. He cursed as he went to opened he laptop. He paused when he saw what was placed on top. There sat a skittles wrapper with a number written on it in permanent marker with xxx next to it.

Sam smiled forgetting about his work for a moment basking in the amazement that came with getting such a beautiful person's number.

Gabriel is going to be a trip Sam thought as he put the wrapper in his jean pocket. Only if Sam knew how right the thought was.
