CHAPTER 10

“How may I help you?” Lowen asked cheerfully to the man who’d sat at the bar. He couldn’t help but be in a great mood.

The fellow glanced toward the door, then his watch, the universal sign that he was waiting for someone. “I’m actually here for a blind date.” The guy actually grimaced. “One of my clients set it up. I’ve never done anything like this before.”

Hoping to make the poor man a little more at ease, Lowen asked, “Oh, what do you do?”

That had a smile appear on the man’s firm lips. “I’m a financial advisor.”

Lowen had to school his features not to cringe. He was sure he’d be bored to death, but clearly this guy loved his job. Holding out his hand, Lowen introduced himself.

“Virgil Green,” the man said. “It’s nice to meet you. I bet you’ve seen a fair share of blind dates and first dates here. Do they usually go well?”

That was a loaded question. Good thing Lowen was feeling so great about love, since he was sure he was falling for Blue. He smiled at Virgil. “With our wines to help you? I’d say you have better than a good chance of things working out.” Lowen gave him a wink then started to move away. “I’ll keep watch out for your date joining you and be back.”

He didn’t know Virgil, but Lowen hoped he didn’t end up with a dud for a date. He couldn’t seem to help but want everyone to feel the way he did.

For the past week, he’d spent every night with Blue curled in his arms. It wasn’t always about sex, although they’d been having plenty, but even on those nights when they were too tired to move, the two just fell into bed like they’d been doing it for years, their bodies curled around each other, not moving until morning.

He’d never had that with anyone in his life. Other nights Blue and Lowen took walks around the square, just talking and getting to know each other. What he loved the most was none of it was forced. Neither of them felt the need to impress the other, they just were themselves.

Or, at least, he was fairly sure Blue was being genuine. Obviously, having only known him a week, there was always a chance he wasn’t as perfect for Lowen as he seemed. No. Lowen refused to allow that little nugget of doubt in.

No point creating drama when there was none. Even the typical issues at work hadn’t bothered him. Nor had Blue seemed to mind when Lowen took on extra shifts. Usually the guys he’d dated didn’t seem to understand he had to work for a living. Then again, he’d tended to date men in college, who were still living off their parents, so money wasn’t really a factor.

He’d even brought up the possibility of not finishing college since he had no clue what he wanted to do with his life and why spend the money on a degree that probably wouldn’t be used.
