have
done if they hadn’t been. She wanted him.
    He smiled slightly then, and she knew
that her thoughts had to be written all over her face. She just
hoped that he was the only one that could tell that there was
nothing more on her mind that moment than making love to
him.
    He winked at her, bringing the blush
back to her cheeks. But then his eyes grew serious. She felt a stab
of panic, thinking that he was going to let her down
easy.
    He said nothing for a moment, just
looked at her. She wasn’t sure if he was searching her face for her
true feelings, or memorizing her as she’d tried to memorize him.
Her heart beat fast as she waited for him to speak.
    “ Why do you have to be so
damned beautiful Acasia Brown?”
    “ Garett.”
    “ I’m serious Acasia. If you
weren’t so fucking beautiful, this wouldn’t be so hard.” He cleared
his throat, and then went on. “Since the day you came back to town,
you have been all I’ve been able to think about. The sound of your
voice, the way you smile, even the way you rolls your eyes at me. I
have never seen a more beautiful woman. You haunt my dreams. I’ve
never been able to forget the way it felt to kiss you, the way it
made me feel to kiss you. The way it made you feel to kiss me. I
know that you felt something that day Cas. It would have been
impossible not to.”
    “ That sounds suspiciously
like your ego talking Garett Black.”
    “ It’s hard to be smooth
around someone who makes you feel like a complete
idiot.”
    Acasia smiled. “I’ve felt like an idiot
quite often myself lately.”
    “ So what do you say that we
feel like complete idiots together? Go out with me Acasia. Please.
Nothing would make me happier right now than hearing you say that
one word.”
    She was tempted to tease him, but there
was nothing she wanted to say more to him than exactly what he
wanted to hear.
    “ Yes.”
    He let out a sigh of almost utter
relief. “I was so afraid you were going to say no.” He let out a
shaky laugh. “That word has never sounded better in my
life.”
    Her face got hot again, and she knew
that she needed to take his order and take care of the other tables
in her section. If she didn’t she was afraid that he was going to
say something else that would put dirty thoughts of him right back
into her head. He made her feel beautiful. She had never felt more
beautiful than when he’d followed her across the room with his
eyes.
    “ I guess I should probably
get back to work. Do you want your usual Gar?”
    “ I want you Acasia. You’re
all I want.”
    She forced an eye roll, but she could
feel him undressing her with his eyes. It was almost like a caress,
and she could almost feel his hands following his eyes over her
body. The moment became all too intimate again, and she knew
without a doubt that she had indeed fallen head over heels in love
with Garett. But for the first time it felt like a good
thing.
    “ I remember what it felt
like to kiss you too Garret. And I did feel something back then.
Yes, I want you. But I’m at work and my boss is going to kill me,
or at the very least fire me, if I don’t get back to
it.”
    Garett chuckled. “And reality sets back
in. I will take my usual beautiful. I mean it when I call you
beautiful. And I meant every word that I said to you earlier too. I
can’t get you out of my head. And I no longer want to.”
    She offered him a smile. “I’ll be back
with your food in a few minutes.”
    “ I’ll be counting the
seconds.” He winked at her.
    The rest of the night passed in a
dreamy haze. Garett called her after she got off of work, and they
talked late into the night, making plans to go out on Saturday.
Acasia couldn’t wait to see him again, and found herself
daydreaming of what their first night together might be
like.

 
    Garett
    Garett felt like a teenager in love. He
and Acasia had been talking and texting most of the day, so often
that he had actually gotten into trouble with his father at work.
But
