We walk back to the car with my arm around Zoey. Iâve only known this woman for less than twenty-four hours, but I feel so comfortable around her. Like I can talk to her about anything; like she understands me.
My lips still tingle from the kiss we shared in the woods. My body aches to explore her curves, but I can tell sheâs still unsure about me. But I donât mind. Some things are worth waiting for.
We get to the car, and I open the back door and pull out my suit. I pull my Christmas sweater off and unbutton my pants.
âWhat are you doing?â She looks alarmed.
âIâm getting into my suit.â
âHere?â She looks around the parking lot full of Christmas shoppers hurrying past with overflowing bags.
I shrug. âWhy not?â I slide my jeans down my legs and step out of them. Zoey gasps, which makes me smile. Iâm enjoying shocking her.
Iâm between the wall and the open car door so no one can really see anything, but Zoey is behind here with me. I catch her reflection in the window checking out my package. Then she turns her back quickly, embarrassed.
I chuckle. âYou like what you see.â
She puts her hand to her head. âNo wonder your dad thought you needed a babysitter.â
âDonât worry. No oneâs looking.â I step into my suit pants.
âI thought you wanted to embarrass your dad with that sweater.â
âI changed my mind. I donât want to get you in trouble. If I turn up on time and looking smart, he wonât have anything to complain about.â
âExcept for the fact that I was meant to bring you to the office five hours ago.â
I shrug, even though her back is still turned and she canât see me. âYeah, well, donât worry about that. You were still able to manage your emails.â
I tuck in my shirt and pull on my suit jacket. A thought suddenly occurs to me. âWhat are you wearing to the party?â
âMe?â She sounds surprised. âIâm wearing this.â
âBut itâs black tie.â
âFor the guests. Iâm not really a guest.â
âOf course you are. Youâre Dadâs personal assistant.â
âItâs a party for the suppliers and clients. We have a separate office party for staff.â
I frown. Trust Dad to keep them separate, as if he canât trust the staff to behave. âThat doesnât sound right.â
âOh itâs fine, believe me. Our party will be a lot more fun.â
I finish sliding into my coat. âHow do I look?â
She turns around, and her eyes look me up and down critically. She breaks into a smile. âGood. You look good.â
Itâs the best praise Iâve ever had.
