I keepmy routine of going to Cinnamon Roll Saviors every morning. Which is mainly because I want to see Lainey. It is the greatest start to my day. Most of the time she’s too busy to talk too much, but even seeing her for a few minutes makes my cold heart warm. I swear I am falling harder and harder for her than I ever expected. There is something about her that makes me want to make her mine, but I am also trying not to move too fast. I know she is new to the world of dating women and I don’t want to scare her or freak her out by coming on too strong.
We had another date tonight, this one being our fifth in the last month. I had been patient but we talked about it and she seemed ready to venture further south of the border so I booked us a hotel room for the night. I thought we’d grab something for us to eat and then head to the hotel room and see how things go. Which is why I’m currently trying to stuff the new bag of sex toys into my bag before heading to work for the day.
I am one of those people that believe you need a new strap on with each new partner, so I scoured Amazon for the best one and then snuck a few other vibrators and dildos in the cart too. I have no idea what Lainey is into, but I am excited to find out. And if she is just into normal stuff, fuck if she is a pillow princess, I’ll still have a good time with her. I just want to be with her in that way.Intimately.
I drive to work with my bag suddenly feeling like a bag of explosives, I am better off leaving it in the car just in case. I don’t want anyone opening it and finding an array of sex toys. Especially at work. I am packed to fuck a whole football team at once.
Work goes by even slower than anticipated, which if you’re curious is insanely slow. The clients just don’t give me the joy they normally do and I’m sure it has more to do with me than them, but I’m just not in the mood to be doing tattoos. I feel like I have one foot out the door today, just waiting for it to be five o’clock so I can take off and be with my girl. Fuck, I like the way that sounds. I know she isn’t exactlymy girlyet, but soon enough. I mean five dates with an intense amount of kissing and heavy petting has to make her more than just a fling.
“Are you okay?” Addison asks, coming in after one of my clients.
“Yeah, why?”
“You just seem more antsy today.”
“I’m sorry, I just have plans after work today so I’m kind of ready to get out of here,” I admit.
“Do you want me to cancel your last appointment?”
“Could I?”
“Yes, you never do and I’m sure you won’t make a habit of it.”
“I promise I won’t.” I all but jump up for joy.
“Have fun tonight,” Addison calls as I run through the front doors ten minutes later. My station isn’t set up for tomorrow but I am off and I need to get out of there. It is like I have all this adrenaline coursing through my veins that I just can’t get out.
I race over to Cinnamon Roll Saviors and I get there just before closing. Lainey smiles hugely when she sees me.
“Hey! What are you doing here?”
“I got out of work early and I couldn’t wait to see you,” I admit. I am becoming somewhat of a simp but I suddenly don’t care anymore. Call me whatever you want, but I am going to tell my girl how much I like her.
“I’m just finishing up here, do you want to wait in the back? You can meet Jen.” She smiles.
“Sure!” I have heard stories about her best friend but we have yet to officially meet.
“Jen! Come meet my… Carter.” Her voice trails with a deep blush. She was about to label us and I’m sure that scared her as much as it sounded like music to my ears.
“Carter! Hey, I’m Jen,” a brunette with a sassy smirk and thick eyebrows says to me. She looks me once over as if she is trying to figure out my intentions with Lainey. I get it, I’d do that if I had a best friend too.
“Nice to meet you.” We shake hands and Lainey excuses herself to clean up in the front.
“So, you guys have big plans tonight?” Jen asks.
“Yup, it’s a big night,” I agree, not trying to give away too much detail. I know Jen is her best friend but I don’t know how much she knows about our relationship.
“Please don’t hurt her, she’s been through a lot lately and she just…she deserves to be happy.”
“I promise I won’t hurt her,” I agree.
“Good, well, I’m off for the night. It was cool meeting you.” Jen heads out a back door and I’m left alone in the kitchen of their bakery. Everything is clean and pristine. So when I hear arguing in the front, I peek behind the curtain to make sure Lainey was okay.
“It isn’t over until I say it is,” a man growls. The same one that was lurking outside the shop a few weeks ago. Has he come back to hurt Lainey? I’m about to jump in and save her when she picks up the phone and threatens to call the cops. He huffs out of the place in a hurry, and Lainey looks like she needs a minute. I try to give her some space, but I am dying to know. Who the hell is that guy and what does he want with Lainey?

“Where are we going?” Lainey asks as we head a little bit out of town.
