Chapter Eight

Jaxon

For the millionth time that morning, I questioned my sanity. I knew this idea of mine was reckless. I was playing with fire and was bound to get burned. Last night had been intense. So intense that I’d almost kissed Levi. If it hadn’t been for the Valet, I would have done it. His lips just looked ready to be taken and I was more than ready to make it happen.

When I got home, I’d jumped in the shower and jerked off to thoughts of Levi. It was almost impossible not to think of him while I did it. He turned my crank more than anyone in my life ever had. He was snarky, funny, and still a bit shy. He was gorgeous and sexy as fuck. I wanted him in the worst way.

Being his boss was still a problem for me. I avoided getting involved with my employees because I didn’t want to take the chance of things not working out and things becoming awkward at work. And I couldn’t fire them at the risk of being sued.

I groaned as I sat in my car outside the restaurant. This could end so badly for me, but I was sick and tired of fighting my attraction to Levi. I figured if we went out on a date, I could get to know him better and maybe I’d find I didn’t like him on a personal level and the attraction would go away. But I knew I was fooling myself. I watched and interacted with him at work and so far, I liked what I’d seen.

I finally convinced myself to get out of the car and walked inside. Levi had texted me that he was on his way and I’d sat in my car trying to compose myself.

The restaurant wasn’t anything fancy. Just a little haunt that I’d found one day. It was a decent size and could fit about seventy-five people inside. The décor was nautical themed which seemed a bit cliché’ then again, I owned a bakery named “Sweet Things” it didn’t get more cliché than that.

I chose a booth near the back and chose the one facing the door so I could see Levi when he walked in. I was nervous and I didn’t understand why. This could go one of two ways. We’d get along outside of work really well and continue to see each other or we wouldn’t, and we’d go back to being professional. Simple. Well it should be that simple, but I didn’t think it would be.

He walked in and my breath left my body. His usually styled hair was left un-styled, the natural wave of his hair making him look even younger. He wore a button up sky blue polo shirt that looked great against his tanned skin and he paired it white chino shorts. He’d dressed up for this and I was glad I wasn’t alone in seeing this as a date.

I stood as he scanned the room and then his eyes fell on me.
