Hero couldn't believe what he just did. He couldn't believe he spilled all his coffee on a stranger. He couldn't believe how taken aback he was to that particular stranger. And he still couldn't believe he was starring out the window of the coffee shop watching her drive away. He felt torn watching her leave, but who was he to ask her to stay? Obviously, she has a life she needs to live and he was not apart of it. He knew this, yet he couldn't help but feel sadden wanting to be apart of her world one way or another.

"Hero!" He heard his name be called and he finally turned around to retrieve the newly made coffee the same stranger had reorder for him. He had never met anyone who would buy a coffee for someone who had split it all on them even if it was an accident. Plus how kind she was to him truly took him back. He had heard Americans had short tempers, but anyone would be upset to have coffee spilled on them first thing in the morning. What kind of beast was she to be so nice to him? Where did she come from and who was she?

He knew this town was small and he was hoping deep down it would be smaller so he could see her again. He couldn't help but picture her auburn hair and brown eyes as her replayed her sweet smile in his head. And her body, even though she wasn't wearing the tightest clothes he could still see all her curves and her voluptuous breasts. He could feel his dick harden just remember looking her body up and down. He had been with plenty of women before with all different body types, but hers took his breath away as the heat rised from his insides as he felt the need to masterbate right here, right now. Of course, he had more self control than that, but if he was alone he wouldn't have give it a second thought.

Hero returned to the car and returned to his plans for the day to begin shooting for his next movie After We Fell. He played Hardin Scott, a bad boy turned good for the girl he loved. He had been blessed to land this lead role and continued to play this character for three years now. He knew all the crew and cast mates like they were family and when they were all together it was like reuniting with family. Although this would be the first time they shot a scene in California that wasn't in Los Angeles. He still wasn't sure why they had chosen this town to be the location of the movie, but he was happy they did at this point even if it was only for a few weeks. After seeing her this morning he felt his idea of this small town had turned positive after all. Hopefully soon he can find a way to see that stranger again and he had an idea to do it.

He remembered the shirt she was wearing as he quickly glanced over her breasts. It had drawings of kids on it and read, "Praiseland Academy of El Dorado Hills" on it. Hero pulled out his phone and looked up the same name on Google while he sat on break while the other actors shot their scene. There were a couple websites that popped up first on the search engine site until he found the right one. He pulled up the website to research it was a preschool and it seemed like a good one at best. He scrolled through the pictures and found the one of the stranger he could not get out of his mind from this mornings encounter. Under the picture the caption read "Miss Ella with her toddler class". Hero couldn't help to reread the sentence at least two more times reading her name slowly. Ella...Ella...it was the most beautiful name he had ever heard before.

"Cut!" He heard the director say as it pulled him out of his trance while starring at a strangers picture. He knew he couldn't tell anyone about what had happened that morning or how he was feeling because they would all think he had gone a little mad. He quickly saved the address of the school and screenshoted the picture of Ella and tucked his phone away.

He had no idea why he just did those things, maybe he was going a little mad. But he knew he wanted to repay the kind stranger for her act this morning. He wanted to send her something like her Starbucks drink order from this morning, but he had no idea what she ordered. Maybe he could send her flowers as a thank you, but he didn't want to seem like a creeper. This was harder than he thought and he had no idea why. It was just a thank you for showing some kindness in a world where it is hard to find nice people now a days.

As his day went on and he continued to work, Hero kept thinking of different ways to thank Ella. He was about to give up and just let it go when something in his gut told him to keep trying. He wasn't sure what it was or why it was so strong, but he knew there was a reason it was there and he couldn't just let it go. He would see her again and thank her and he knew it would be sooner rather than later.
