“Don’t mind me!” Donna said, as she retreated. “Don’t stop on my account, but you may want to take that into the office. I’ll just be out here in the dining room waiting for you, Jordan.”

Donna hurried away.

“Were you expecting her?” Noah asked quietly, one hand still on her waist.

“Yes, she’s in town for the day, and we were meeting for lunch,” she said. “I just didn’t expect her to come back here.”

Noah pulled her back into his arms and reignited their kiss without another word.

As Noah’s lips reached her neck, she came to her senses. Placing her palms on his chest, and against her body’s wishes, she gently pushed him away.

“We are still at our place of business.” She enjoyed his kiss a little too much, and it was bad enough that her sister had caught them. If an employee walked in on them, it would be a whole other level of inappropriate.

“That wasn’t a problem the other night,” he said, smirking.

“That was after hours.”

She moved out of his arms and tugged her shirt down, hoping she didn’t look as though she’d been making out in the hallway.

He took her chin in his hand and gently brought her attention back to him. “After the game, come back to my place?”

She nodded. “That would be much better than the hallway between the kitchen and the dining area.”

“Much better.” He gave her a quick kiss on the lips. Taking her hand in his, he stepped back and smirked. “So, to be continued?”

She took a deep breath, trying to get her heart rate to go back to normal. She had never wanted the hours to go by as quickly as she did today. “Meet you after the game.”

He moved in and whispered in her ear. “God, I can’t wait for tonight.”

She felt another surge of longing. Her resolve to stop this had all but dissolved.

His sexy grin wasn’t doing anything to help her calm down. “I’ll look for you during warm-ups.” Noah slowly took a few steps and eventually dropped her hand as he strutted towards the back exit. He flashed her one last grin before he was gone.

Taking a minute to compose herself, she smoothed her clothes again, and ran her hand through her hair.

Jordan knew even before she turned the corner to the dining area that her sister would be smirking like the cat that ate the canary. And yep, there she was, sitting at a table, grinning like a fool.

“Girl, I’ve already ordered the wine. Now sit down and dish. I want to hear everything!” Donna beamed.

Taking her seat across from her sister, Jordan looked towards the bar for the waitress with the wine. Once she had made eye contact with her, the waitress then hurried to their table with the wine.

Nodding a thank you, Jordan then took a large gulp before indulging Donna.

“So, you and Noah, huh?” Donna raised one eyebrow and took a sip of her wine.

Jordan had the feeling of being caught red handed. She shrugged, though not able to contain the smile that filled her face.

“Did you sleep with him?” Donna blurted out.

“Wow, tactful much?” Jordan relaxed a bit. She hadn’t expected her sister to beat around the bush, so her comment didn’t shock her at all.

“Good thing I interrupted back there. If you two had gone any farther…Well, I’d hate for a busser to walk in on that.”

Her body warmed as she thought about the impromptu make out session in the hallway.

“You don’t have to say anything. It’s obvious you’ve slept with him.” Her sister laughed. “I mean, I get it. He’s got that sexy, irresistible smirk and of course that nice hockey butt.”

Jordan searched the room for any excuse to escape this conversation before Donna went into any more detail about what she liked about Noah. But her sister was right; he was all that and more.
