Chapter Fourteen

Once again,she’d made it through the entire day without jumping Jonas’s bones. Mostly because he had been out of the house for nearly all of it. If he had cornered her again, she wouldn’t have made it, not at all.

If he had found her in the kitchen at breakfast, the entire family probably would have heard them having sex one room away. No way would she be able to be quiet with him. Twice he’d shown her what it would be like.

For another day, Lucy was staying at Maby and Cliff’s place. Harper and Kaine had taken off on vacation for a few days, which was completely unlike Harper, but they were coming back tomorrow. Agatha was once again not home at all. A quick text said she was staying with friends, which was code for “she was hooking up with someone.”

For the second day, the empty house was freaking Buzz out. If she wasn’t hiding what she was doing from her sisters, she would have moved in with Cliff and Maby also. She might anyway if Agatha never came home. She hated being in the house alone.

On day two of her new job, she again took all the meals she would need for the day and headed out as the sun came up. As she drove, she ordered ten to-go meals at her favorite diner not far from the Lovely house. It cost her more to buy those meals than she was probably going to make during the week, but it was worth not having to actually cook.

Buzz used her shoulder to nudge the back door open and carried breakfast into the kitchen. To her surprise, Jonas was there to take some of the trays from her.

Totally busted!

“Did you order these?” He looked at the white take-out containers.

“No, I made them at home. These are just what I bring them over in. No need to get here an hour earlier than I have to,” she lied.

“Good planning. I wish I could spend less time here.”

“You can always move out.” She didn’t need to mention she knew he already had a place in town as she led him into the dining room and turned on the warmers.

“Not until those two shitheads move away. Ross and Brett are not going to be unchaperoned in this house.” He handed her another container.

“I think Louisa is old enough to be around boys, Jonas,” Buzz replied, though she didn’t seem mature when her mom was around.

“Not these two.”

“You’re just being overprotective. She’s an adult and has to learn how to take care of herself, though it is sweet of you to want to protect her.”

“She can learn how to take care of herself in the wild. At home, she should be safe.”

“I don’t think she’s in any danger, really. Making out with a boy is something all teenagers do. If she’s anything like me, she’s already done all that.” God, she hoped her sister was a little less like her than the rest of her actual sisters. They’d all been wild and out-of-control teens.

“You didn’t, did you, Bea?”

“Of course. It was a rite of passage. Drinking, sex, experimenting … that’s what kids do.” Buzz tried not to think about sex; sex with him, more precisely, because that was all she could think about.

“I don’t like to hear about that, Chef Buzz-Buzz,” Jonas’s voice went soft when he said her nickname, making her knees weak.

“Well, I am an adult, so I have done all those things. You should know about some of it.”

“I still think about you under me, over me, and me inside you.” He snagged her body and pulled her tight to him. His hands caressed her as best he could with the coat on.

“Stop, stop, stop. I have a job, and you’re not helping me with that.” But her body didn’t move away; she couldn’t force it to. It was completely stuck to him like glue.

“Don’t worry; she won’t fire you. I’ll make sure of it.” His hands were expertly working the buttons of her coat.

“We’re in the kitchen.” Her words were husky even to her own ears. She was so turned on she couldn’t turn it back off today.

“I have a room upstairs. Right up there.” The coat hit the ground with a thump since her phone was in the pocket.

“I’m supposed to be here if anyone needs anything.” She didn’t move but felt his lips on her neck.

“Here works for me.”

“No, we can’t.” Her words sounded correct, but his hands had slipped into her pants. Leave it to her to wear easy-access leggings when working for Mr. Sexy.
