She was dropping hints from the very first sip of her Moon Latte. She laughed a little extra at his jokes, prolonged the conversation past the bottom of the cup, and made sure he knew she was free the following weekend.

He, on the other hand, was blissfully oblivious.

It took a second date, a third date, and a few not-so-subtle nudges before the lightbulb finally went off. But once he realized what had been right in front of him all along, there was no going back.
