EVAN

I feel nervous and awkward around her. It’s been a long time since I’ve been around any one person this much. It’s also been a long time since I actually had to be present in the moment and keep a conversation going. Something about her draws me to her. Watching her photographing the canvases earlier gave me more of an insight into who she is. I watched her from my office while she worked. I saw the drive in her, the passion, the need to bring life to these paintings. Seeing that creative side of her only made me want her more, like I’ve found the common ground between us.

I didn’t know what I was thinking when I asked her to join me for lunch, only that I wanted to spend more time with her, really get to know her. I guess before, I had thought of her as some woman who carried a camera around as a hobby, but now that I’ve seen her passion and drive, I know I was wrong in my assumptions. Even though I tell myself to keep the distance between us, something won’t let me.

I pull the door open for her and watch as she walks past me to step inside. I can’t keep my eyes off her round ass that sways from side to side with her every step. Those jeans are tight and leave little to the imagination. I try to shake these thoughts from my head. I step up behind her in line and my eyes keep wanting to glance down to her ass, but I make it a point to stare at the back of her head instead. Her red locks look luscious and soft. I want nothing more than to tangle my hand into her hair and feel the smooth strands run between my fingers.

The man at the head of the line steps to the side and Lola moves up. “I think I’ll just have the vegetable soup and a small side salad, please,” she orders.

“Okay, that’ll be—”

“Actually, it’s on me,” I say stepping up. “And can I add an Italian Club sandwich and a bag of original potato chips?”

The lady behind the register smiles and nods. “Of course.”

“You didn’t have to do that,” Lola says, looking up at me with her big, blue eyes.

“I invited you. I’m not going to make you pay,” I say around a grin.

Her cheeks turn pink, but she pulls her eyes away.

I hand over some money and watch as she walks to the little stand that holds the napkins and silverware. She gathers up what we need while I stand back and wait for the food. I’m handed a tray moments later, and I carry it over to a small, two-person table that’s directly in front of the window. She comes over to join me and we both take a seat.

“This feels a little weird, doesn’t it?” I ask, unwrapping my sandwich.

She giggles. “It kind of does. It’s just so out of the blue.
