too much to handle

[BELLA DONNA GRAVES]

Bella sighed, not at all pleased with the amount of work she had to have done today. Sure some of that was her own fault but that wasnt gonna stop her from being grumpy about it. Her college books and papers were laid out in front of her as well as some papers from a new case she stupidly agreed to help with. She leaned back in her chair, crossing her legs as she sipped her coffee, trying hard to procrastinate. Her dark eyes scanned the room, noticing how very busy it was for the first time. Here she was taking up a whole table by herself. No one came over to talk to her or sit with her. Its not like they were all strangers either, she recognized some from her classes but of course they werent really friends.

Bella really didnt have many friends considering she wasnt even a US citizen. Hopefully that would change soon. She just... worked too much. Plus her exotic looks and accent had a habit of intimidating others and okay, she would admit it... she could have a bit of a temper from time to time. She sighed again, wishing for a distraction. But none seemed to show so she slowly closed up a couple of her books to make room for anyone else even though no one moved closer to her table. She sipped her coffee and rolled her eyes, people could be so weird sometimes. She half wondered if it would just be better to go back to her home country and finish her degree there but she just loved this little town so much.

Bella blinked and glanced up when she heard the male voice near her. She didn't recognize him, then again, its not like she went out and mingled very much. She was just too busy, especially with finals coming up. She smiled softly, stacking her papers in a pile so to give him plenty of room to join her. "No go ahead." She gestured to the empty chair, "Sorry I was so involved in my work I didn't realize how busy it had gotten in here..." She glanced around the place, noticing there really was an awful lot of people, mostly college kids getting ready to study or hanging with their friends.

Bella leaned back in her chair and took a sip of her own coffee, wondering if he wanted to be left alone or not. She felt rather awkward sitting there with a stranger. She didn't want him to ignore him, that would be awfully rude of her to do. She set her coffee down on the table, glancing at the stack of work she had before glancing up at him. He was cute, she couldn't help but notice. Then again, Bella was very good at finding the best looking guy in a room. It was kind of like finding a sale, she knew all the best places to go, apparently even by accident.

"My name is Bella..." She offered up finally, her Italian accent quite noticable, not sure if he even wanted to chat but figured she would give it a shot. Her eyes were sore and she decided to postpone her work for at least a little while. It was okay to take a break right? Its not like she was going to forget everything if she stopped for fifteen minutes or so. "I don't think I've seen you around... are you just visiting or am I really that unsocial?" She half joked, slightly curious. She looked for any sign that she was bugging him, wondering if maybe this man, because he was most definitely not a boy, wouldn't be interested in listening to her.

Bella bit her bottom lip, chewing it softly in thought. He seemed very much like he would rather be working than listening to her. She did have things to do herself even though she was confident she had gone cross-eyed looking at all the papers for so long. She watched as he shuffled about, trying to get things just right before he could relax. It was interesting to say the least, having never seen anyone be so organized. "Yeah its pretty popular but it has every right to be considering they knew how to make quality coffee. You just usually got to get here at the right times to avoid the rush."

Once he was settled and introduced himself, she gladly shook his hand, smiling softly. "That's an interesting name." Being from Italy, most names here in the states she found to be interesting. None really rolled off the tongue well in her native language she found. She reached for the stack of papers, slowly pulling a file off the top, resting it on her lap and against the lip of the table. Surely she could get something accomplished today and not feel like such a slacker.

But of course, being more interested in the man in front of her and tired of working didn't help the fact she needed to get something done. Its not like too many exciting things happened in this small town. Then again it seemed like more and more interesting things were rolling in every day. She was pretty sure that could be considered some type of omen but maybe that was just because of how she was raised and where. "Well you must be pretty glad you're back then? To see your family and what not. I'm sure your parents and wife are glad to see you came back unscathed." She smiled softly, knowing nothing of this man but really happy he was back home and seemingly getting his life back on track. She would never wish unhappiness on someone. Well not if they didn't first hurt or anger her and this man, Coleman, had done none of those things.

"Sorry I don't mean to disturb you. I'll leave you be now. I'm just super bored. Been going over this lawyer stuff for a couple hours now and my eyes just needed a rest." She laughed slightly, wondering just how stupid she sounded before glancing back down at her files, really planning to be quiet and ignore the fact that he was there so he could do his own thing but she had never really been great at focusing and he was a pretty great distraction.
