I
set my phone on the table and look up as my adorable waiter has a seat across
from me.
“Hi
there, beautiful.”
“Uh,
hi. Can I help you?”
He
laughs and sips on a glass of water he’s brought with him. “I just thought I’d
spend my break time with a beautiful woman.”
What the hell?
“I’m
Scott,” he continues and holds his hand out for me to shake.
“Stacy,”
I respond and shake his hand.
“Great
name.” He flashes another smile, and I see two deep dimples wink at me from
each cheek.
He’s
adorable.
What
is he doing here?
“So,
why are you here alone?”
“She’s
not.”
We
both turn our heads at Isaac’s cold voice. He’s glaring at the poor kid.
“Oh,
sorry man, didn’t know she was taken.”
“Right.
The wedding ring wasn’t a clue?” Isaac asks sarcastically, not taking his
intimidating gaze away from Scott’s face as he hastily climbs off the stool.
“I
was too blinded by those amazing hazel eyes and wavy auburn hair to notice her
hands, bro. You’re a lucky guy.” He winks at me, grabs his water and is gone,
leaving me with my mouth hanging open.
Isaac
takes the seat Scott just vacated and glares over at me.
“What
did I do?” I ask innocently.
“Do
you have to make yourself look that good in public?” He’s dead serious.
I
glance down at my white button-down blouse and dark denim jeans.
“I’m
not dressed up,” I reply.
“You
don’t have to get dressed up. Now that you’re not pregnant anymore, I’m gonna
have to kick ass again.” His eyes soften and he takes my hand in his, linking
our fingers.
“Yeah,
right.” I laugh and toss my hair over my shoulder. “Besides, you didn’t have
anything to worry about. That kid was way too young for me.”
“He
was old enough.”
more, more, more!!!
