“You’re the best, Alex.” I smiled as I pulled out my phone.

“Have fun tonight. I want to meet her,” Alex said as she walked away.

I dialed Sebastian’s number.

“What’s up, cousin?” he answered.

“I’m cooking dinner for Ava tonight and need a dessert.”

“Just a dessert? I can whip something up for the two of you.”

“Thanks, but I’m cooking.”

“You sure about that?” He chuckled.

“I can cook. I’m just not a good baker.”

“Don’t worry. I got you. I can bring it down to you when I get home.”

“I’ll just pick it up on my way home. Which restaurant are you at?”

“Four Kinds.”

“I’ll be leaving the store in about twenty minutes.”

“Okay. I’ll have it ready for you.”

“You’re the best. Thanks, Sebastian.”

After I checked out, I climbed into my car and headed to Four Kinds. When I stepped inside, I went back to the kitchen.

“Just in time.” Sebastian smiled as he handed me a large plastic bag. “Two buttermilk lime mini cakes with vanilla mascarpone buttercream.”

“Oh my God. You are awesome.” I placed my hand on his shoulder.

“I also threw in some fresh homemade rolls and cherry butter.” He smiled.

“I bought rolls.”

He cocked his head and narrowed his eye.

“Right. Homemade rolls are better. Thanks, cousin. What do I owe you?”

“Nothing. It’s on the house. Just enjoy your evening.”

“Thanks, Sebastian. I’ll talk to you later.”

“Are you sure you don’t want me to whip something up and bring it over for dinner?”

“Positive. I got this.” I smiled as I walked out of the kitchen.

CHAPTER14

Ava

When I arrived back at my apartment, I stripped out of my clothes and showered. The chatter in my head made me smile because they were talking about Grayson, and not in a bad way. As I was putting on my makeup, my phone rang with a Facetime call from my best friend, Hannah.

“Bonjour, madame.” I smiled as I answered.
