Chapter 7

Miles

The weekend was amazing, and I’m more than a little bummed to be back at work today. But duty calls. It’s been a crazy morning full or meetings and conference calls. I’m glad I had my secretary keep my lunch hour free, though. I need my girl. Even if it is just for lunch. I just need to see her.

I walk into the foundation lobby and see her laughing with Tegan. “Hi, ladies.”

“What do you want, Miles?”

“To take my girlfriend to lunch.”

“Girlfriend?”

“Yep. You ready, Alex?”

“Yeah. Let me just put the away message on the phone.”

“You two? Really? That’s really cool.” She hugs Alex and then looks at me. “Just know that if you hurt her, we’ll all come for you.”

“Noted.”

I hold out my hand, and Alex takes it, smiling, as we walk back out the door. I notice a few people’s mouths drop open as we walk to the cafeteria, and so does she.

“I’m ruining your street cred, King.”

“Don’t care, Xandy.”

To prove my point, I pull her to me as soon as we walk into the cafeteria and kiss her sweetly. I’m pretty sure all conversation has stopped, but I’m too busy to notice. We pull apart a minute later, and I lean my forehead against hers as we smile at each other for a moment. I back up and walk her over to the salad place she likes, kissing her hand and telling her I’ll meet her at the table.

I grab a quesadilla and snag a table for two by the window. I’ve just gotten my drink and silverware situated when someone sits across from me. It’s some chick I’d slept with when I first started working here a year ago.

“That seat’s taken.”

“Seriously? We had fun. Let’s go again, Miles. That girl is just...”

“Just what? Beautiful? Smart? Sexy as hell? My girlfriend?”

She scoffs. “You don’t have a girlfriend.”

“Actually he does, and that is my seat.”

“Take it from me if you think it’s yours.”

I start to stand. We can just move if crazy chick over here is so intent on sitting at this table. Alex shocks me by pushing me back into my seat and then sitting on my lap. I wrap my arms around her and nuzzle her neck.

“I prefer this seat, anyway. Feel free to sit there if you really need to.”

The chick’s eyes go wide as Alex feeds me a piece of my quesadilla. I smirk as she licks some sour cream from my mouth. Chick gets the message and stomps away. Alex goes to get up, but I told her tight.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

“My seat.”

“I thought you liked this one better.”

“I do. But’s it’s not exactly easy for both of us to eat when I’m on your lap.”

“Fine. As long as you promise to sit on me when we get home.”

“Umm…where is home, Miles?” I ask as I get up and walk to the now empty seat.

“Wherever you want it to be. Are you going to keep staying in the guest house?” That’s where we slept last night.
