It wasn't that Westin was bad company. He was funny. He'd taken many of the same classes I was currently in, and the conversation was light, easy. I just wasn't into it. Which was so surprising because he was lovely.

But he's not Saint.

And Saint… I hadn't seen hide nor hair of him since early that morning. He'd just sent me cryptic texts when I was in class earlier telling me he'd be home late.

I wasn't sure what that meant because he'd been coming home late some nights. When I'd tried to ask him about it, he wouldn't tell me anything.

Also, this isn't your home.

No, but it had started to feel that way a little bit. A home away from home. The opportunity to still resume some of my normal life. Whatever the hell that meant.

"Earth to Kaya. Well, how was it?"

I dragged myself out of my reverie. "It's really good. How did you learn to cook? Did your grandma sit you down and show you how to do everything?"

He laughed. "Nope. She’s not really the type. She likes to gamble. Drink. But her Nana had these great handwritten recipe books, so we read them together and I tried the recipes out on her."

"Oh my God, how old were you?"

He laughed. "Let's just say I was a precocious one."

"One?" I was convinced he was full of shit.

"Like I said, I was precocious."

“Okay…”

That was the thing about Westin, you never quite knew when you were getting the truth.

But his sauce was to die for, so that much was true. He could really cook. He wasn’t lying about that, but I could see it. That thin line of deception, that marker where people put their pasts and things they didn't want people to see.

"So, you and Saint,” he said. “I get the feeling I'm stepping on his toes."

I hadn't expected him to be so direct. "No. Not at all. We're not… we're not real."

He gave me a soft smile. "Honestly, I would have been on shift tonight anyway, and figured I would make you a meal. But I wanted to test the waters when I asked you out."

"Oh, you could have just said so."

"Yeah, you're right. I could have. But it's more interesting watching your brain try and talk yourself out of being completely into Saint."

"I'm not completely into him. He is stubborn. Taciturn. What the hell is wrong with him? He never says anything. Keeps everything close to the vest. And he's bossy. Soooo bossy. What the fuck? I don't think I've ever met a man that bossy. And he's moody. I never know what I'm going to get."

Westin laughed. "He's also one of the best blokes I ever met."

"How long have you been working for him?"

"Not long. It was only in the last year that we've gotten to know each other better. He's actually not a bad mentor. And what he's like now, that's new. He's not usually like this. He smiles a lot more. Smiles easily. He'll be the first one with a joke.
