I was walking down the street towards my favorite cafe. "Excuse me miss?" I heard in a Scottish accent. I turned around.
"Oh hello. Can I help you?"
"Actually you can, but only if you want. I'm a photographer and I noticed how pretty you were. I need portraits and no one I know will sit still. Do you mind helping me?" We stepped off to the side of the sidewalk.
"Oh um well I don't know about that."
"I completely understand. Well have a good day." He turned around and started to walk away. I heard him mutter 'Mr. Lee is going to be so mad.'
"Wait! You wouldn't happen to go to the Colorado Mountain College would you?"
His jaw dropped. "How did you know?"
"I study journalism there. Mr. Lee is helping me take pictures to send to the magazine that wants to hire me."
"Oh that's amazing! So, do you mind if I take a few pictures of you?"
"I don't mind. Oh, I didn't even ask, what's your name?" I looked around and realized we had started walking and ended up wandering into This & That Café, which happened to be where I wanted to go the whole time. We took a seat at an empty table.
"Well my real name is Leopold Fitz, but I hate the name Leopold, so you can call me Fitz if you like."
"Ok, well hello Fitz. My same is Jemma Simmons, but I rather like my first name, so you can call me Jemma."
"Well hello Jemma. You have a beautiful name."
"Oh thank you! My mom chose it."
"I can hear your accent. Where are you from?"
"England, but I would love to settle in Perthshire."
"Ah Perthshire is beautiful. My home actually isn't far from there."
"Oh that's wonderful! I bet you love visiting home."
He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. "Well I actually haven't had a chance to visit in a while. I've been so caught up with school and my job."
"That makes sense." I paused for a moment. "I'm going to go order me a tea and a muffin, would you like anything?"
"Oh no thank you Jemma."
"As soon as I come back we can start talking about pictures."
"Okay sounds good."
