“I like that,” she grinned. “I’mstarvingand you promised great food.”

He blew out a breath and smiled. “I can’t believe you’re here.”

“Well, you made it sound like life or death if I said no,” Oleander teased and Jackson narrowed his eyes.

“You could have said no.”

“And miss out on a kiss like that?”

Jackson grinned and held a hand out to Oleander. “I was really nervous, in case you couldn’t tell.”

“You were not.” She made apfftsound and slid her hand into his, their fingers locking. “You were definitely thinking about it as I walked over.”

“I was actually thinking about how beautiful you are.”

“Stop it,” she whispered and Jackson noticed that she was blushing.

Jackson smiled when Oleander squeezed his hand. “I’m glad you agreed to go out with me. Today is going to be a lot of fun.”

“I’m looking forward to you popping my food truck cherry.”

“Right.” He stared at her a moment, the words making him blush as he looked away. “We’re hitting up every single truck, unless it says vegan or organic on the side.”

“Don’t knock vegan food, some of it is good!”

“Most times I’ve eaten it, I’ve wanted to scrub my mouth out with soap.”

Jackson chuckled at the expression on Oleander’s face, “We’re going to find a good vegan food truck and change your mind.”
