So... now skate meet XD
Sawyer found the house easily, he parked his car at the side of the road. He looked at the house and smirked, hell it was like something out of American dream homes, complete with a little white picket fence and all.
He had found out earlier that morning that there was an apartment next door was up for rent, it was the perfect opportunity for a con, they got to know him as a loveable neighbour then bam he was gone, and so was their money… he couldn't have written it better.
He strolled up so he was just at the end of the driveway and he saw her, well he presumed it was her, a thin brunette woman was crouched down on the floor tending to her plants, her back to him.
"Excuse me?" He ventured hoping she would turn around.
When she did Sawyer had to fight back a gasp, she was truly stunning. If he had thought she had looked beautiful in the photograph, real life was something else. Her hair was tied back messily a few wet looking strands framing her face, her dazzling green eyes seemed to study him. Her freckles scattered perfectly across her nose and cheeks.
"Yes?" She said sweeping her hand over her face, leaving a trace of dirt there.
"I'm pretty new around here… I was just wondering if you knew anything about that apartment next door?" He said smoothly regaining his composure.
"Um… it just went up for rent" She said standing up tossing her gardening gloves to one side "The owner's still there, she's moving back to Australia at the end of the week so she needs it gone fast"
"Well I need somewhere fast" Sawyer said "You know anyway I could contact her?" He asked, flashing her a dimpled smile.
"Well she's a good friend of mine actually" She said her heart fluttering at his smile… those dimples, god he looked- wait what the hell was she thinking? She was married to Jack, she barely even knew his guy, no scratch that she didn't even know the guy. "I could just ring her and see if she's home?"
"Thanks" Sawyer said flashing her another smile, Kate disappeared into her house.
He breathed out, damn this girl was having an effect on him already she moved with such grace, she looked so beautiful. But no- he couldn't think like this, he had to concentrate on the job, on the money – keep his eyes on the prize.
A few moments later she reappeared. "She's home now" She said "She says you can go up and look if you haven't anything else to do"
"Great, thanks" He said.
"I'm Kate by the way" She said, and then immediately blushed, why did he need to know that? He didn't need to know that, so why had she said it?
"Hey Kate" He said, not that he didn't already know her name "I'm Sawyer"
"Sawyer" She said, saying the name somewhat softly.
"Ill see you around" He said turning back into the street "By the way, you gotta a little something there" He said pointing to her cheek, his finger lightly stroking against her skin, her face burned at his touch embarrassedly.
"Thanks" She muttered scolding herself for being so stupid as to blush as she rubber furiously at her cheek.
"Anytime Freckles" He chuckled before strolling up the street.
