Clare giggled like a schoolgirl, and I loved that she was enjoying herself so much. It was obvious she had completely forgotten about Mandy. “It is! I can’t wait to eat this!”
She stirred the cheese together and I took her glass of wine and held it in front of her.
“What are you doing?” she asked with a confused smile.
“I’m helping you drink your wine.”
Learning forward, she put her mouth on the wine glass and took a small sip. When her tongue swept over her lower lip, I felt my dick jump in my pants.
“You have more on there still.”
I put my finger on her chin and lifted as I brought my lips to her mouth. I ran my tongue along her lips and Clare moaned softly. When I drew back slowly, Clare’s eyes were still shut but quickly snapped open when Chef Kat spoke.
“That is what I love to see Clare and Wes!” Chef Kat said. “Cooking and enjoying one another!”
Clare’s cheeks turned pink as she took a step away. Our gazes were locked until she looked past me, and her smile faltered for one moment. I knew if I followed where she was looking it would be Mandy. Instead, I set the glass of wine down and watched as Clare started to stir the cheese mix again.
“Now add in your herbs and give it a stir. Then add your one egg.” Chef Kat said.
I reached for the egg and cracked it with one hand. Clare looked up at me with a surprised face.
“You are full of surprises, Wes Ward.”
Winking, I leaned in closer and said, “You haven’t seen anything yet.”
“You all have pasta dough at your table that has already rested for an hour. We will use this while your dough will be what you can take home with you. Call it a little starter kit.”
We cut the dough in half, and each rolled it out into a thin sheet.
Once we had the sheets rolled out thin, we dropped teaspoons of the cheese filling onto one of the rolled sheets.
Clare took water and her finger around the sheet of dough so it would stick when we laid the other pasta sheet on top.
We then pressed around the filling, cut them out and then pressed the fork around the edges.
Clare turned on the heat for the water to cook the pasta before we then quickly made up an easy red sauce.
“Take this drainer, take the pasta out and put it directly into your sauce.”
“Don’t burn yourself with the hot water,” I said as Clare carefully removed the pasta and put it in the pan of sauce.
“I am so dying to taste this!” she said as I watched her work at carefully taking the pasta out of the water. It took everything I had not to laugh because Clare had a concentration face. A serious, concentrated face. And the best part of all, her tongue peeked out from the side of her mouth the entire time she was focused, and it was fucking adorable.
Feeling someone watching me, I glanced up to see Mandy staring at me. I simply smiled then turned some so that my back was facing her. I suddenly hated the fact that she was there. It tainted the whole experience with Clare.
After plating our pasta, sprinkling fresh parmesan cheese on it, we all sat at our tables and ate a delicious meal while talking to our neighbors.
“Can you believe we made this?” Clare asked before shoving a bite full of pasta into her mouth. She let out a moan of delight and I had to adjust in my seat some.
I nodded. “It’s delicious.”
“Right?” Clare said with a giggle. “By the way, I saw Mandy staring over here a few times. I feel so bad for her fiancé, she treats him like crap.”
I shrugged. “Honestly, I was having so much fun, I forgot she was even here.”
Clare titled her head. “Really?”
“Yeah. I mean, didn’t you have fun?”
