Bright blinding light covered his ashen face, he blinked a few times. Letting his golden green eyes adjust to the lighting in his room.  Sleepies still lay in the corner of his eyes, and he laid there for a moment trying to pry the annoying spec out from between his lids. Finding nothing to hold him back from popping out of bed he sprang up, whipping back the blankets from his waist. Chills spread from the balls of Alex's feet and spread to his calves like wild fire, then were gone as soon as they came.<br/><br/>The hardwood floors felt like ice under his feet as he made his way to the bathroom as he went to get ready for the day. Not even noticing the blinking alarm clock on his night stand that told the tale tell signs of him being late for work. Foolish wolf that he was, he forgets to check that as he strolls into the room again to gather his clothes, and walks back out. Finally feeling ready to leave his house for work, he checks the clock. Astonishment shows on his face, and he quickly grabs his keys and heads for the door.<br/><br/>The smell of coffee and another sweet delectable scent made him wander into a coffee shop, even though he was late for work. His boss was really going to skin him.  His orbs look around the shop and spots a girl behind the counter doing nothing. Knowing, he hasn't much time he orders quickly,"Large Coffee, Black." He realizes then that it was her scent that he had been smelling. He watches her quizzically as she works to make his coffee.
