Sweet dreams.See ya tomorrow.

I couldn’t waitfor tomorrow. Damn, I had it bad for JT.

Good night.

* * *

I was upbright and early for work the next day, even beating Grandma up. I had some coffee made for them and was sitting at the table reading a book on my Kindle. I hardly slept the night before, too excited about seeing JT again today. My body was left unfulfilled too after our brief make out session and it needed more of him. A lot more.

We got to the diner around six AM and there were already a few cars in the parking lot. Grandma wasn’t kidding when she said Sunday was busy. A lot of tourists are heading home today and don’t want to mess with cooking so they stop in. I think they just wanted to try Grandma’s home cooking. She had quite the reputation in these parts.

Before I knew it, the place was so busy that JT was the furthest thing from my mind. The place was filled with hungry customers and even families waiting to be seated. I was on my feet constantly and didn’t have a chance to sit until almost eleven.

I grabbed a Diet Coke and a sandwich before sitting down for a break. The lunch rush would be here soon, so I didn’t have much time. The bell rang on the door and I looked up to see JT walk in. He had on his red baseball hat, some camo shorts, and a green t-shirt. His face lit up with a smile when he saw me and I waved him over.

“Just in time,” he said and slid into the booth across from me.

I nodded, chewing the food in my mouth before swallowing. “Yes.”

He reached across the table and took my hand. “I had a great time last night.”

He was running the pad of his thumb over my knuckles, making it hard for me to think and form coherent sentences. “Me too,” I managed to mumble.

“What are you doing tonight?” He asked.

“Something with you?” I asked hopefully.

“Good answer,” he chuckled. “I’ll come pick you up at six.”

“Sounds good.”

“I have to go help Dad with some stuff, so I’ll let you get back to that sandwich.” He stood up and gripped the edge of the table, leaning down towards me. “I’ll see you tonight.” He bent down and kissed my lips softly.

I smiled and watched him leave, suddenly not hungry anymore. He kissed me here in public! My heart was about ready to burst. I hadn’t felt this way about anyone in a long time – if ever.

I cleaned up my plate and went back to work, a smile plastered on my face. Nothing got me down the rest of the day, not even when a family of eight came in and were some of the most difficult customers I’d ever had.

Grandma and I closed up the diner around three like always and headed back to the cottage. Brittany had sent me a text, asking what I was doing tonight. I told her I had a date with JT and she called me to help me figure out what to wear. I filled her in on what happened last night too. She screamed into the phone and I think she was just as excited as me.

“So are you guys just having a good time or is this something more?” She asked right before hanging up.

“What do you mean?” I asked, confused by her question.

“Well, aren’t you here for only the summer?”

“Yeah.” My shoulders sagged. I hadn’t thought about that.

“Does he know that?”

“I don’t know.”

“You should probably talk about that.” She paused. “Chase is calling me about tonight. Gotta go.”

She hung up before I could say anything else.

She had me thinking now. How could I bring this up? What if he got freaked that I was thinking this was more serious than he was?

I heard his truck pull up and I checked my hair and makeup one last time. I wasn’t going to worry about where this was going. We met only a few days ago, so I wasn’t going to stress. My parents tried to plan out my whole life for me, so for once I was going to go with the flow and have fun. Hopefully, some sexy fun.
