Elaine nodded and turned to her computer. "Cookbooks are under the call number 641. Any magazines would be in the magazine area and are not available for check out. And I am Elaine, the one and only librarian. I hope you are not allergic to cats. I have a cat named Mittens who comes here with me."

Dakota meet eyes with Jo before she introduced herself. He could feel the heat on his face as he stood there blushing. As he looked her in the face he noticed that she was beginning to blush a bit." It is nice to meet you Jo..My name is Dakota. I run to town tailor out of home." He said regaining his composure as much as he could.
This woman is very beautiful. Her outfit was simply yet had a flair to it. Dakota stood there for a few moments lost in thought. He had a weird habit of trying to dress people up in outfits that would fit them in his mind. Dakota finally snapped out of his thoughts." Jo that invitation extends to you as well, feel free to stop by anytime you need a alteration, or looking for a new outfit. He said smiling.

Jocelyn smiled as the librarian gave her the call number and explained that she could not check out the magazines. "Understandable," She said. "Idid bring my notebook to copy down any recipes I might find in them." She said patting her purse. She smiled brightly, "No allergies to cats but I'll have to keep my eyes open for Mittens, if only to introduce myself."
Her attention was pulled back to the man, who introduced himself as Dakota and explained what he did and invited her to stop by for anything clothing needs she might have.
"I will definitely take you up on that," she said with a warm smile. "Maybe you can stop by the restaurant and try out some of the recipes I'll be working on." She suggested. Jo looked back to the librarian, "You as well, of course, Miss?" She had not caught the other woman's name.
And then she remembered, "Actually, Dakota," She said suddenly, "I am in the market for a new dress if you're not too busy."

Dakota eyes light up the moment she said dress. His thoughts went single track as he pictured her he in every dress that came to mind. His right fingers began to move in a rhythmic pattern as he sized her up. Taking measurements by sight was a hard thing to do, but Dakota was surprisingly very good at doing it. " I am always free to make a new dress. We just need to talk about, pattern, color, material, and style." He quickly said not being able to hold his excitement in.
" Well if you would not mind me accompanying you here in the library, so we could talk about it, and maybe get to know each other." Dakota said in the excitement. Then he realized what he had said. his heart stopped for a second. Did he really just day that? He couldnt believe he had just asked this woman he just meet that. Should I say something else maybe? or just leave it as is? he thought to himself his face turning red again.

Jocelyn could feel the excitement radiating from him as soon as she said dress. It was nice to see someone as passionate about their work as she was about hers. She nodded as he started to name off the things they would have to discuss. She would admit that she had not put much thought into it as of yet. She had just really known that she wanted to get a new dress, she'd never really had time to wear any before moving out here...
And now she was free to wear what she liked, where she liked.
His next words caught her by surprise, she felt her cheeks flush again but she smiled at him. "That sounds nice." She felt a little shy suddenly. "I'd... love to get to know you better," Jocelyn admitted and looked down at her hands for a moment.
"Shall we?" She asked before giving a small wave to the librarian and started to walk towards her recipe books once she was sure that Dakota was going with her.

Dakota was amazed that she had said yes, his heart was swimming in his chest, and it felt like it was going to bust at any moment. He was honestly distracted more than normal. This woman had vexed him. Her eyes were calm, yet there was determination in them.
He noticed that she was blushing again. he embarrassed her? But then the words hit him. She actually wants to get to know me? What am I suppose to say now? Dakota's mind went blank.
No I got this he told himself. I got her to blush, its a small step but a step none the less. " After you." Dakota answered as he followed behind her. His heart was pounding, Dakota was sure that she could hear his heart. Every time she looked at him he would just blush and give a smile. " So for your dress did you have anything in particularly in mind. Dakota asked.

Jocelyn thought about his question as they walked over to where the librarian had told her to find the books she needed. "I hadn't thought too hard on it as of yet." She admitted with a sheepish smile. "Something lighter, the weather has been nice lately." She said and looked to him, his smile made her smile just a little more every time.
"I guess... you could say I am open to suggestions? I've never had a dress made, so ummm..." She pulled a book off the shelf and used it to distract her for a moment. "Do your clients normally know exactly what they want?" She sounded a little apologetic for not knowing what she needed for him.
"Probably something more casual." She said thinking out loud. "It's not like I go to any formal parties."
And then a thought struck her, "Do you actually design clothes?" She asked. "Maybe we could look at your portfolio? I'll make coffee or tea?" She offered picking up another book and looking back at him with a smile.

Dakota silently followed till they had reached the books and she had answered his question. Listening to her added comment the gears in his head began to turn. " The weather has been nice, so maybe we could do a nice sun dress with a design or maybe a solid color. " He asked with a smile.
" Do not feel pressured most people do not know what they want when they stop by my shop. It why I like to get to know people for first before I accepting a job. Dakota remarked looking at the book she had picked up. " I like to add a persons personal flair to the cloths I make, so it fits them better." He added rubbing the back of his head. " Yeah I do make all my own cloths. and my own wool when I need wool for something thanks to artos. And it would be a pleasure to show your my portfolio. And if you would want my company I would be more than happyto have to with you." He said kinda nervously still rubbing his head.

"A sun dress sounds lovely, it's been a long time since I've worn one." she admitted. She stopped looking at books for a moment as she listened to him explain why he got to know his clients before going to work and creating for them. She liked how he wanted to incorporate a little of them into the clothes.
Really make it personalized.
"I am very impressed, Dakota, your clothes are definitely well made. Very sharp," She blushed as he mentioned her wanting his company. "Well, your company has been very nice so far... so if you're willing to spend more time with me... I would be very appreciative." She blushed and looked back at her book as if the cover was suddenly very interesting. Her blue orbs looked back up at him. "Maybe, we could spend some time together just for fun as well? If you're at all interested?" She felt her face heat just a little.

The young librarian didn't even get a chance to reintroduce herself or accept the offers before the two patrons before her began chatting. It was bitter sweet that they were getting along and looked like they would make a good couple. But for the lonely librarian, it reminded her that she had no one. Her family long dead and with no friends, she was all alone. Save for Mittens of course, who was hiding in the travel section to sleep. Elaine returned to her lunch as she let Dakota and Jo chat uninterrupted.
Dakota with out skipping a beat completely missed the suggestion for them to spend time together at first." I do not see why? With your figure even a nice evening gown would look fantastic." He said as the suggestion from earlier hit him. As he fully caught what she had asked, his faced turned red as a tomato. Add that to the fact he just realized what he had just said about her in a evening gown, and he could actually feel the heat from his face cause of his blushing.
" Of course I am very interested. And thank you I actually made them for myself. I have always believed in the old rule. If I wouldnt wear it, why would I expect a customer too. " Dakota quickly answered rubbing the back of his head. Hoping he did not sound to eager to spend more time with her. There was something about this woman, that he could not place his thumb. Dakota was normally to shy to say more that a few words to a girl, but with her he just could not seem to control his mouth.

Jocelyn actually laughed when he commented on her looking nice in an evening gown. "Perhaps," She said with her cheeks flushed from her laughter and his compliment. "But I find myself not spending much time at balls or galas. But thank you for your kind words." She said watching him as he took a moment to become tongue tied himself. She liked that he was eager and that he wanted to spend some more time together. She watched him as he spoke to her and fidgeted slightly, it was endearing.
"Well, we both want to spend more time getting to know each other..." She said with a soft chuckle. "So I guess we should make a date or... A time to hang out... if you're busy after this." Jo hadn't meant to put it exactly that way. "I mean we can take a walk or go get something to eat while we chat." She explained, but noted it still sounded like a date.
