It was a warm summer night, and the stars were shining bright in the sky. I had just finished a long day at work and was looking forward to spending a quiet evening at home. As I walked down the street towards my apartment, I noticed a man standing on the corner, smoking a cigarette. I didn't pay much attention to him at first, but as I got closer, I couldn't help but feel drawn to him.

He was tall and lean, with dark hair and piercing blue eyes that seemed to look right through me. I slowed down as I approached him, feeling a strange sense of curiosity and excitement. He looked up and caught my gaze, and I felt my heart skip a beat.

"Hey there," he said, his voice low and smooth. "What brings you out on this beautiful night?"

I paused for a moment, unsure of how to respond. But there was something about him that made me feel comfortable and at ease. "Just coming home from work," I replied, smiling a little.

He took another drag of his cigarette and looked at me thoughtfully. "You know, it's a shame to spend a night like this alone. How about we go for a walk together?"

I hesitated for a moment, wondering if it was a good idea to go off with a stranger. But I couldn't resist the pull that I felt towards him. "Sure," I said, feeling a sense of excitement building in my chest.

We walked together down the quiet streets, talking and laughing as if we had known each other for years. He was charming and funny, with a wit that kept me on my toes. As we walked, I couldn't help but feel a sense of electricity between us, a feeling that I had never experienced before.

We ended up in a small park, and he led me to a bench under a tree. We sat down together, and he took my hand in his. I felt a jolt of electricity shoot through my body at his touch, and I knew that something special was happening between us.

As we talked and laughed, the hours seemed to fly by. Before I knew it, the sun was starting to rise, and we realized that we had been sitting there all night. I looked up at him, feeling a sense of warmth and affection growing inside me.

"You know," he said softly, "I think I've fallen in love with you tonight."

I felt my heart skip a beat, and I knew that I felt the same way. In that moment, I realized that he had stolen my heart, and I didn't want it back.

We exchanged phone numbers and parted ways, but I knew that I would see him again. And from that moment on, I knew that my life would never be the same. He had stolen my heart on a warm summer night, and I knew that I would never be the same again.

Months had passed since that warm summer night when he stole my heart, and I had thought about him every day since. I couldn't shake the memory of him, and I longed to see him again. But despite my best efforts, we had never been able to connect.

One day, as I was walking down the street, lost in thought, I heard someone calling my name. I turned around and saw him standing there, looking just as handsome as I remembered. My heart skipped a beat, and I felt a sense of excitement wash over me.

"Hey," he said, smiling at me. "Long time no see."

I smiled back at him, feeling a wave of relief and happiness wash over me. "I know," I said. "I've missed you."

We talked for a while, catching up on everything that had happened since we last saw each other. He told me about his travels and his work, and I shared with him some of the ups and downs of my life. As we talked, I felt a sense of warmth and affection growing inside me, and I knew that my feelings for him had never really gone away.

As the night wore on, he suggested that we go for a walk together. I agreed, feeling a sense of excitement building inside me. We walked together down the quiet streets, talking and laughing as we went. As we walked, I couldn't help but feel a sense of electricity between us, just like I had on that warm summer night when he first stole my heart.

We ended up at a small cafe, and he bought us each a cup of coffee. We sat down together, and he took my hand in his. I felt a jolt of electricity shoot through my body at his touch, and I knew that I still had strong feelings for him.

As we talked and laughed, the hours seemed to fly by. Before I knew it, the sun was starting to rise, and we realized that we had been talking all night. I looked up at him, feeling a sense of warmth and affection growing inside me.

"You know," he said softly, "I never forgot about you. I always knew that I wanted to see you again."

I felt my heart skip a beat, and I knew that I felt the same way. In that moment, I realized that he had stolen my heart all over again, and I didn't want it back.

We exchanged phone numbers and parted ways, but I knew that I would see him again. And from that moment on, I knew that my life would never be the same. He had stolen my heart again, and I knew that I would never be the same again.
