My body was heated and flushed all day after that kiss. And it didn’t help any that Kacy gave me the side-eye all day. Torque was distant, too, either working in his office or talking with customers and the mechanics. Later in the afternoon, Kacy clocked out, and Torque made his appearance again.

He came to the front counter and leaned up against it, folding his hulk size arms over his chest. “I hope my brat niece kept her mouth shut about what happened between us earlier today.”

I laughed nervously. He was so close, I could smell his cologne again. “She didn’t say anything, even though I’m sure she wanted to.”

He grinned then. “I’ve never seen someone as happy as you were the moment you saw your bike, Ronnie.”

I felt my cheeks flush. “I promise I will pay you back as soon as I can.”

He handed me the pep cot key to my bike. “There’s no rush, Ronnie, really. We’ll figure some kind of monthly payment that you can afford.”

“Thanks, Torque.” I gathered my things, grabbing my backpack.

“Wait.” He looked nervous, rubbing the back of his neck. “You want to get some coffee or lunch tomorrow?”

“I’m your employee now. I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

“It’s just coffee or a sandwich; that’s all.”

I couldn’t help but smile, feeling giddy inside. “Sure, okay.”
