It had been three days since Misty Day stumbled into Cordelia's life. Three days that Cordelia could not get anything done without thinking about the beautiful blonde woman. She was constantly wondering if she should try to contact her. She had never been this nervous when it came to another person before. Not even Hank. Hank was a subject that she wanted to avoid for the time being. With the way things ended between them, he was the last thing she wanted on her mind. She must have looked like she was having a tough time with something because the girls were starting to take notice. Some were even beginning to worry. Even Madison seemed somewhat concerned, which was concerning within itself.

Cordelia was startled out of the document she was working on when her office door was swung open. "Hey Cordi, what's got you so worked up lately?" Madison asked. She plopped herself down in the armchair across from Cordelia's desk, crossing her legs and arching an eyebrow. Cordelia looked over the rims of her dark framed glasses and glared at the younger girl in front of her. "I'm not sure what you are referring to," Cordelia lied. Madison scoffed in reply. "Yeah, whatever you say. It's not like you've been avoiding all of us lately. I mean, avoiding me I understand, but not Zoe and Queenie," Madison continued. Cordelia could only sigh and take her glasses off, rubbing her eyes out of frustration. "I may have met someone," she reluctantly replied.

Madison's eyes grew wide, a look of disbelief crossing her face. "Seriously? You, Misses Uptight, 'may have met someone'. I can't believe what I'm hearing," Madison stated. Cordelia rolled her eyes, "Not like that, she's just a friend. Or at least I think she is. I only met her a few days ago when she found Olivia in the park, or rather, Olivia found her," Cordelia mused. Madison looked surprised. "You mean the munchkin actually talked to someone that isn't one of us?" Madison had a soft spot when it came to Olivia. She could get away with almost anything when it came to Madison, which surprised everyone in the academy. Cordelia looked back down at her document, replying to Madison while she looked over the last few pages. "She not only talked to her, she hugged her. Before we left the coffee shop, she rushed to hug her like she didn't want to miss out on the opportunity before we left." This got Madison's attention. "Wait, did you just say before you left the coffee shop?". "Yes I did," Cordelia replied. "So you had coffee with this woman and now your nervous to call her?". Madison was still trying to wrap her head around the thought of Cordelia venturing out and finding a friend outside of the coven.

"Well, I had coffee. She had tea, she said that she doesn't like coffee," Cordelia said matter-of-factly. "And your still sticking to the idea that this woman is just a friend after that last statement, Cordi?" Madison teased. Cordelia rolled her eyes again. She was starting to wonder how long this would go on until the other woman finally dropped the subject. "Yes Madison, she is just a friend. Even if she wasn't, after what happened with Hank…," she trailed off. Madison knew that the man was a sore subject so she decided to change the subject. When she couldn't come up with anything, she got up from her chair and started to head out of the room. Once in the doorway, she turned around to add,"If you do ever decide to meet up with this mystery woman, just let us know. We could watch the little brat for a couple hours if you'd like". She exited the room leaving a somewhat stunned Cordelia behind her. Did Madison just offer to be helpful? She'd have to talk to Zoe and Queenie about this later.

Cordelia looked back down at her desk and side-eyed her phone. "I should just do it," she thought, "She's going to think I forgot about her if I don't do it soon". Without thinking more about it, she picked up her phone sent a simple text.

Cordelia: Hey, this is Cordelia from the coffee shop the other day. You know the one with the child you so graciously entertained at the park? I was wondering if you'd like to meet for lunch or dinner sometime? If you don't, I completely understand.

Cordelia set her phone down. "God, could that message have been anymore awkward," she thought. Just as she was about to continue her self-depreciating thoughts, her phone dinged.

Misty: Hey Miss Cordelia, how could I forget about you or your adorable kid? I'd love to get lunch or dinner with you sometime. Why would you think I wouldn't? I did offer to make your flower arrangements for that event you have coming up, didn't I?

Cordelia: Great! Just let me know when you're free and I can see if the girls could watch Olivia. And I think it's just my insecurities getting the better of me.

Misty: What about later tonight? I'm planning to close the shop a little early today. Business has been slow and I think I'm costing myself more money being open than I'm actually making haha.

Misty: Btw, you've got nothing to be insecure about :)

Cordelia: Let me check with the girls and get back to you about tonight.

Cordelia: And that's very sweet of you to say :)

Cordelia set her phone down and smiled at Misty's last text. "Could she be flirting with me," she wondered, "I don't even know if she likes women. Hell, I don't even know if I see other women like that. Get it together Delia," she thought. There was only one way for Cordelia to figure all of this out. She got up from her desk, tucking her phone into her pocket, and headed downstairs where most of the girls hungout during the day. She looked around the living room, only find some of the younger girls talking amongst themselves. She walked into the kitchen to find Queenie attempting to teach Zoe how to cook something while Madison sat at the breakfast table filing her nails. "Hey girls, I have a question for you," Cordelia said. At this, three pairs of eyes turned to her. "Would one of you mind watching Olivia tonight?"

While the other two girls looked somewhat confused, Madison only smirked. "So you decided to contact your new lady friend, huh? I can watch her if it finally gets the stick out of your ass," Madison said. "Thank you Madison," Cordelia replied sarcastically. She turned on her heels and left the room, hearing a murmured "What was that about," from Queenie and an "I'll tell you later," whispered by Madison. Choosing to ignore them, Cordelia pulled her phone out of her pocket to reply to Misty,

Cordelia: The girls can watch Olivia tonight. Did you have a place and time in mind?

Misty: As a matter-of-fact, I do. Since you took me to one of your favorite places, I'm going to take you to one of mine. How does 7pm sound?

Cordelia: 7pm works for me. Do you want me to meet you there?

Misty: Nope, I want it to be a surprise. Just plan to meet me on the corner of Bienville and Bourbon.

Cordelia: Okay. See you then!

Misty: Until tonight Miss Cordelia :)

Cordelia looked at the time on her phone, 2:35pm. Now she just had to keep herself busy until 7pm. How hard could that be?
