“What about you, Dad? Are you and Iain going to hang out?”
Lennie coughed into his fist, and I turned to find my bodyguard trying not to laugh again.
“Um,” Dawson replied, rubbing his beard. “Maybe. Would that be okay?”
Dawson was testing the waters.
“You don’t get out much, and Iain needs the company, so I think it’s a good idea,” Jaxon replied matter of factly.
Lennie and I both laughed at that comment, with Dawson joining in.
“Ouch, Jax. But noted,” Dawson teased his son.
“Does anyone want dessert?” I asked. “They’ve got a chocolate cinnamon lava cake that’s so fu… freaking amazing.”
Not swearing in front of Jaxon was as challenging as not flirting with Dawson.
Jaxon shook his head. “Thanks, but I’m stuffed.”
“Me too,” Lennie replied.
I looked at Dawson, and he licked his lips. “How about we order one to go?”
Suddenly, I was picturing him and me in my bed, feeding each other that cake and making all kinds of messes.
Oh God, two days was far too long to be separated from this man.
“I like that idea.”
Dawson flagged down the server, and once we had our cake in hand, I paid for lunch, much to Dawson’s protest, and we headed out.
“Thank you for lunch and for letting me play your guitar. It was so cool. And for meeting the guys and the autographs on my shoes and coming to my party!” Jaxon exclaimed.
“Well, thanks for dropping by. It was my pleasure.”
Jaxon leaned forward and gave me an earnest hug. I was surprised, my heart warming at his gesture.
This kid was too cute for words.
Lennie opened the door, and Jaxon hopped up into the back cabin of the truck.
“What’s the plan?” Len asked when he closed the door. “Drop off Jaxon at his friend’s and then on to your place?”
Dawson looked at me, and I nodded.
“Perfect,” Dawson replied.
Yes, it was.
CHAPTER 34
IAIN
After Lennie dropped off Jaxon, Dawson got into the back seat so we could sit together.
Alone. For the first time in forty-eight hours.
He slid his right hand into my left, interlocking our fingers tightly, and I fought the urge to jump over his lap and kiss the fuck out of him.
