While resting on a bench in the park Luna notices a man sitting besides her and sighs whole keeping looking at her phone, not even caring about him Luna inner thoughts: "Here we go again... Another creep that will touch my body... I don't really care tho... As long as they don't mess with my make up, everything is ok..." She thinks dismissively, already guessing what will happen while continuing to browse her social media page Luna Instagram post: "A creep sited besides me once again... Wish me luck..."

Looking at the man that addressed her she raises an eyebrow in surprise before giving him a cold and empty stare. "Hey... You wanna something from me?" She asks slowly, tilting her head to the side. The question is sarcastic and laced with disdain.

Luna tilts her head slightly more as she observes the man before giving a half-shrug and returning to her phone. "Well... I mean... It happens so much that I just..." Her voice trails off, lost in thought for a moment before she shrugs again, looking at him with a hint of amusement in those cold, black eyes. "...Can't blame me for being cautious?" There's still no warmth or friendliness to her words; she remains detached and aloof even when genuinely surprised by his reaction.

Luna Stardust thinks about that a bit more. This guy is actually not that bad... Not at all like the others... Maybe I should give him a chance? She decides, feeling a faint spark of curiosity about him. She puts down her phone and turns to face him properly, her expression slightly less guarded than before. "So what's your name?"

Luna nods slowly in understanding. "Alex... Interesting name. I'm Luna." She pauses for a moment before adding with a faint hint of amusement, "But you can call me Luna if you like." There's still no obvious warmth or familiarity to her voice, but the words come out more easily than before.

She glances back at her phone for a moment, contemplating whether to continue using it or engage in conversation with Alex further. He seems... different somehow. But then again, she's thought that about creeps before too. Deciding to see where this goes, Luna puts her phone away and leans slightly towards him. "So what brings you here today?"

"Ah, I see." Luna nods in understanding as she watches Alex with mild curiosity. His dog seems friendly enough, and it's nice to see someone taking the time to care for an animal. "Dogs are great companions," she remarks, her voice neutral but not completely indifferent.

She ponders for a moment about whether or not to share something personal about herself with Alex. This might make things less awkward... but it's risky too. Deciding on a small detail, Luna decides to see how he reacts before revealing more. "I actually used to have a dog when I was younger," she says softly, looking away for a moment as if remembering an old memory. "He passed away a few years ago."

Luna hesitates, waiting to see how Alex will respond before deciding whether or not to share more of herself with him.

Hearing his kind words, Luna can't help but feel a slight warmth spread through her. She hesitates for a moment longer before slowly nodding in agreement. "Thank you... I'd like that." With gentle movements, she reaches out and gently begins to pet Alex's dog, the animal accepting her touch with friendly curiosity.

Luna continues to watch Alex as she pets the dog, still not entirely sure how much more of herself she should reveal. His reaction to her dog story makes it seem like he might be different from the other guys who've approached her... but then again, maybe this is just some kind of strange game or trick. She can't help but wonder what his motives might be.

"So, Alex..." she begins tentatively, "What do you do for fun?" The question is innocuous enough, a typical conversation starter that allows her to gauge his interests without revealing too much about herself in return.

While petting Alex's dog, she sees it humping her leg. Her face turns slightly red and she winces in embarrassment, trying not to show any reaction as the animal continues its actions. She bites her lower lip, feeling awkward about the whole situation but unable to do anything to stop the dog.

Luna glances at Alex nervously, wondering how he'll react to this. His expression changes slightly, from amusement to concern as he quickly steps in to separate the dog from Luna and apologize profusely. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry about that! He doesn't normally do that to people..."

Despite her initial embarrassment, a small smile tugs at the corners of Luna's mouth as she watches Alex scramble to comfort her and make things right. There's something... almost endearing about his reaction. She hesitates for a moment before speaking again. "It's alright, really... Dogs will be dogs." It comes out sounding somewhat cold and detached, but there's a hint of genuine appreciation beneath the surface.

The comment catches her off guard, and she gives Alex a skeptical look before letting out a laugh - not quite a genuine sound but more like forced amusement. "Well, you know..." She pauses for dramatic effect, tilting her head to the side as she eyes him from underneath her long eyelashes. "I'm sure you can imagine." There's an edge of challenge in her tone that wasn't there before, almost like a taunt.

She crosses her arms over her chest and leans back on the bench, watching Alex intently to see how he'll react to this jab. Her expression softens slightly when she notices him blush furiously under his tan skin, confirming that her comment hit its mark. It's a small victory... but still, it feels good to have the upper hand for once.

The unexpected invitation from Alex catches Luna off guard for a moment. She hadn't expected him to react so kindly after her taunting comment earlier. A part of her wonders if he's just being polite or if there's something more going on here. But then again, what does it matter? It might be nice to spend some time with someone who isn't constantly leering at her or trying to use her body for their amusement.

She hesitates for a moment before finally nodding slowly. "Alright... I mean, I don't have anything else planned right now." There's an undertone of curiosity in her voice that betrays her earlier detachment. It'll be interesting to see where this goes... maybe even fun.

With another glance at Alex and a faint smile on her lips, Luna follows him as he leads the way for their impromptu dog walk and restaurant outing. She tries not to think too much about it; after all, she knows how these things usually end up. But for now... well, might as well enjoy the moment while it lasts.

Luna considers Alex's question for a moment before responding carefully. "I... suppose I am somewhat guarded when it comes to personal things." She pauses, thinking about how best to explain her detached demeanor. "I've had my share of bad experiences in the past, and I've learned that keeping people at arm's length is often safer for me." There's a hint of sadness in her voice as she says this, but it quickly gives way to a cold and empty expression.

She shrugs nonchalantly. "But who knows? Maybe we can prove each other wrong and have some fun along the way. After all," she adds with a faint grin, "it'd be nice to think there are still decent people out there." There's an undertone of hope in her words that contrasts sharply with her usual detached manner.

As they continue walking side by side, Alex reveals more about his own past experiences and how they've led him to prefer spending time with animals over people. It's a familiar story for Luna in many ways, but she finds herself genuinely interested in getting to know this man better. His dog seems happy enough with her company too, which is always a plus.

She listens intently as he speaks, nodding occasionally or offering an occasional question or comment of understanding. There's something about the way Alex carries himself that makes Luna feel like she can trust him... maybe even rely on him for support if need be. It's a foreign feeling, but one that she doesn't completely reject.

As they reach a nearby restaurant, Alex suggests getting something to eat before continuing their walk. He seems to be enjoying her company, and that thought makes Luna feel warm inside despite her usual detachment. For now, she decides to enjoy the moment and see where this unexpected connection might lead them.

While they enjoy their meal at the restaurant, Luna finds herself engrossed in conversation with Alex. His stories about his life and experiences feel refreshingly honest and unguarded, much like her own comments earlier on in the day. There's an undeniable connection between them that she can't quite explain, but it feels good to have someone understand her on this level.

As they finish their food and continue walking down the sidewalk, Luna finds herself leaning closer towards Alex as if drawn to him. She hasn't felt this comfortable or at ease with anyone in a long time, and she doesn't want today to be just another memory of someone who used her body for his own amusement.

"Thank you..." she murmurs softly, not quite meeting his eyes but feeling the warmth in her cheeks nonetheless. "This has been... nice." The word slips out easily, almost unintentionally, and she quickly realizes how much it means to her that this day hasn't turned into another disappointment.

The compliment takes her by surprise, and she looks up at Alex with a small smile playing on her lips. "You think so?" She asks softly, almost hesitantly. "I've always thought you were... unique." The word hangs in the air between them for a moment before she continues, feeling emboldened by their growing connection. "Different from the others who've tried to get close to me."

There's a hint of longing in her voice as she looks at him, and it takes everything inside her not to lean forward and touch his hand or cheek just to see what that might feel like. It would be so easy... But then again, this whole thing could still fall apart with just one wrong move on either part.

His question catches her off guard for a moment, but she quickly recovers and shrugs nonchalantly. "In... an interesting way?" She offers with a crooked grin that doesn't quite reach her eyes. "It was refreshing to spend time with someone who didn't just want to use me or make me into their personal fantasy."

There's another moment of hesitation before she continues, the words tumbling out faster than she expected them to. "I mean, I get it... you know? People have these ideas about me and what I am, but not everyone realizes that I'm still a person underneath all that." She gestures vaguely towards herself before averting her gaze once more.

It's the most she's ever revealed about herself to anyone besides close friends from high school who never judged her for being different. The thought of telling Alex even more fills her with a mixture of exhilaration and fear, but somehow... it doesn't seem quite so daunting when she looks at him like this.

Hearing his reaction makes her laugh despite herself. "Yeah... I know, right?" She shakes her head in disbelief as they continue walking down the sidewalk. The sun is starting to set now, casting a warm golden glow over everything around them that seems somehow fitting for this moment.

Luna takes a deep breath, wondering how much more she should say before pushing forward on impulse. "It's not all bad though... I mean, I've met some really great people along the way who didn't treat me like an object or try to change who I am." She pauses for a moment, thinking about Alex and their brief time together. "And sometimes... well, it's nice to know that there are still good guys out there."

She glances at him from the corner of her eye, searching his face for any hint of what he might be thinking. Their connection feels stronger now than ever before, almost tangible as they walk side by side under the setting sun.

"So... Alex..." she begins tentatively, not quite sure where to go from here or how much more of herself she should reveal. "What do you think? You know, about this... us?"

Her heart flutters in her chest at the thought of going over to Alex's house and hanging out with him. It feels so... normal and easy between them, even though they've just met today. Maybe this could be something special, something real? The idea sends a wave of warmth spreading through her body as she considers his invitation.

"I'd like that," she murmurs quietly, her voice filled with a soft happiness that surprises even herself. "Let's do it." The decision is made without any hesitation or second-guessing; she trusts her instincts when it comes to this kind of thing and they're telling her that Alex is someone worth exploring further.

There's an awkward silence between them for a moment before Luna clears her throat, feeling the need to say something more. "So... I should text you my address or something?" She asks nervously, not quite sure how people normally go about arranging these kinds of things.

Without further hesitation, they both hail cabs and give the drivers their respective addresses. As soon as Luna provides hers, she can't help but feel a thrill of anticipation mixed with nervousness course through her veins. She wonders what Alex will think of her apartment; it's not exactly fancy or anything, but it's home to her and she feels comfortable there.

She glances at him out of the corner of her eye as they ride in silence for a while. There's an air of anticipation surrounding them both that makes the journey seem longer than it actually is. Finally, their cab pulls up outside Luna's building and she pays the fare before turning to face Alex with a nervous smile on her lips. "Well... here we are."

"Oh, thank you!" She says with genuine pride, leading him into the apartment. "I actually designed it myself; I used to work in interior design before things took off with my modeling career." As she explains the thought process behind her color scheme and furniture choices, she can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction knowing that someone appreciates her hard work and creativity.

They spend some time talking about their lives and interests over drinks and snacks in the living room. The conversation flows easily between them, and Luna finds herself revealing more and more about herself without even realizing it. There's something about being around Alex that makes her feel completely comfortable and at ease, almost as if they've known each other for years.

As the night wears on, their flirting becomes more obvious; they touch each other lightly when talking, laugh at each other's jokes more easily, and even share a few lingering glances across the room. It feels like they're dancing around something big, but neither one of them seems to want to step back from the edge just yet.

Eventually, Alex leans in close to her ear and whispers softly, "I think it's time we took this party to the bedroom." His breath tickles her neck as he speaks, sending shivers down her spine in anticipation of what might come next. Her heart is racing but she nods slowly, unable to hide the desire burning in her eyes. "Lead the way," he says with a husky voice that sends chills through her entire body.

Her heart races as she thinks about the possibility of cuddling with Alex. It's been a while since anyone has shown her affection in such a genuine and non-sexual way. "Well..." She bites her lower lip, looking into his eyes for some sign of how he feels about it. "I mean... if you really want to?" There's uncertainty in her voice, but there's also a flicker of hope that maybe this could be more than just another fling for him too.

He grins and pulls her closer, wrapping his arms around her waist as he nuzzles into her neck. "I do." His breath tickles her skin, sending shivers down her spine again. Luna returns the embrace, feeling herself relax against him as they find comfort in each other's company.

Together, they make their way to the bedroom where they lie down on the soft sheets, entwined in each other's arms like two halves of a whole. As they gaze into one another's eyes, all thoughts and worries seem to melt away, replaced by an overwhelming sense of peace and happiness.

"You're really something else, you know that?" Alex whispers softly before pressing his lips to hers in a tender kiss that takes Luna's breath away once more. She smiles against his mouth, enjoying the warmth and familiarity that she feels with him in this moment.

For now, they content themselves with cuddling and exploring each other's bodies through soft caresses and lingering touches. It's a perfect end to an incredible day spent together; one that neither of them will soon forget.
