I slumped down into one of the tables in the first class airport lounge. I had an hour before my flight boarded, so I figured I'd get a drink and something to eat before my long flight. Setting down my small carry-on and laptop bag in the seat next to me I quickly took the drink menu so I'd be ready when the waitress came over. In typical fashion she came over quickly smiling and perky.

"What can I get you?"

"Lime margarita, jumbo." I answered quickly setting down the drink menu, she turned on her heels and walked away to get my drink.

I picked up the actual menu but hardly looked over it. I scanned the lounge looking at several men and women eating, drinking, and having impromptu meetings before their flights. Airports were an interesting place. They were almost like a second home to me. I was in one almost every week and sometimes more if needed. After a while you start recognizing a few faces here and there. That was a scary thought because there were millions of people who flew around the world every single day, but it seemed like first class was a smaller more group of people.

But today as I scanned the lounge my eyes quickly landed on someone at the end of the bar. I couldn't see her full face just a profile but I knew she was beautiful. Her blonde hair pulled back into a high ponytail, a pair of black rimmed glasses firmly on her nose, engrossed in book that was flattened out next to the large plate of fries that she nibbled on. I couldn't help but watch her.

I tried to look away but she was so gorgeous I had this deep desire to get to know her. It was rare that I felt that strongly towards someone I'd only just seen. Usually I never allowed myself to get to know people; I just had a few close friends and my family. In my line of work it was so difficult to keep an actual relationship because I traveled so much. It was better just to not have any attachments; casual sex was just fine. But was that actually enough? I mean it did get a little lonely and all my friends were dating or even getting engaged. Deep down there was a part of me that wished I had that as well.

I was truly living a lonely road, one that I should think about detouring from. It wasn't like I was going to start dating the girl at the bar or anything. But maybe I needed to start having an actual relationship. You know find a nice girl who doesn't mind my crazy traveling lifestyle. Finding that girl was probably going to be a one and a million shot though, who was I kidding?

"Ready to order?" The waitress snapped my out of my creepy stare session at the blonde.

"Ahh-" I looked up at her. Crap I didn't even look over the menu. "I'll have the bacon burger with avocado and fries." I had it here before once and it was pretty good.

"Anything else?"

I couldn't help but glance at the bar again. What was I waiting for? I should just take that scary step and try something new. There really no harm in it. "What is she drinking?" I motioned towards the blonde at the barn.

The waitress looked over then smiled brightly at me. "Dr. Pepper." I almost laughed. Yeah the blonde was adorable.

"Get her a refill from me, please." I tried not to let my palms get sweaty as I made the request.

"Sure thing."

I started to sip my margarita once she walked away, the waitress place my order then slipped behind the bar. She moved around then brought over a full glass of soda to the blonde at the end. The blonde tried to refuse the drink but the waitress just smiled and pointed in my direction. My eyes widened slightly when the blonde turned to look at me. I smiled when she locked eyes with me. A huge grin spread across her face and gave me a small wave that I returned. My heart was beating wildly. This was so crazy; I didn't even know why I had just done that. I felt like I was one of those creepy guys at bars who tried to pick up every hot girl that came in.

The blonde flashed me another smile before returning her attention to the book and her fries currently in front of her. I tried not to frown. I don't know what I was actually expecting from this little stunt of mine. Her to come over and say hi or motion me over to her, I don't really know for sure.

With a defeated sigh, it was worth a shot, I reached into my bag pulling out my iPad to check my emails while I waited for my food. After I finished replying to a few I couldn't help but look up towards the bar. I frowned; the blonde was no longer sitting there. Well it had been a risk. A scary ass risk that I truly needed to start taking more of.

"Someone sitting here?"

I jumped hearing the sweet voice. Glancing to my right I saw her standing there. She was juggling her book, plate of fries, and the Dr. Pepper I gave her. "Ahh – no have a seat." I quickly motioned for her to sit while trying not to grin brightly.

"Great." She quickly took a seat. "Thank you for the drink."

"You're welcome."

"Brittany." She held out her hand towards me.

"Santana." I answered taking her hand in mine in a firm shake. I couldn't help but notice the tingling feeling and the sudden warmth run up my arms at her touch. My heart quickened.

"Nice to meet you." She continued to smile at me grabbing a fry from her plate gnawing on it playfully. "So where are you headed to?"

"Paris for a week."

The smile on her face grew. "Me too! Flight A364?"

I nodded. "Must be fate."

She smirked. "Must be." She took a sip of her drink, her gorgeous blue eyes never leaving my face. "Maybe we could have dinner in Paris?" Her question was so innocent and nonchalant. "If you have a free moment that is."

"I think I could do dinner." I smiled brightly at her.

"Awesome." She grinned nibbling on a fry.

I just got myself a date, I least think I did. So yes everything was pretty awesome right now.
