filet and a parsnip puree. That reminds me… I head over to the fresh vegetables to pick up a list of produce. When I’m finished, I head to the restaurant.
The kitchen’s empty. Where the hell is Jessie? He should be here by now.
I give him a ring and find out he’s got a flat. I tell him I’ve got it and to get here when he can.
I get the kitchen going, getting all the prep ready and the tuna started.
He’ll have to finish this, I tell myself and laugh. As I head to the cooler, I get a text from Eoin.
* Hurry back to me, chef ;)*
I smile. Okay, work, Lea!
The day runs smoothly, other than a customer not knowing their steak temperatures right. I love those people that try to get a free meal. I mentally add him to my list of not welcomes.
I get into my TDI and head home in the traffic from hell. When I walk in, I’m greeted with a fantastic aroma. I smell seafood gumbo!
As I round the corner, I see him stirring the pot. He must not have heard me come in. There’s music on and he’s in the zone.
Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly love anything else about him, I see him like this. He works his way around my kitchen as if it’s his own.
I watch him carefully taste the mixture and add some spices.
I decide I’ve seen enough and walk into the kitchen making deliberate noise, as if I haven’t been there the whole time.
“Hey.”
“Hi,” he answers with enthusiasm. “I know you must be tired and hungry after a long day, so I thought I’d make dinner.” All I can do is beam at him and his kind heart. I walk up to him and take a taste. He looks at me, as if waiting for my approval.
“Wow, this is fantastic! You know what you’re doing, don’t you?” Grinning, I let him know I’m going to take a quick shower. He flashes me a look that sends shivers down my spine.
“You’ve got to watch the gumbo, babe,” I say, turning quickly to make a hasty exit to the bathroom. He grabs my arm and swings me around into a passionate kiss.
“Hurry back, gorgeous,” he replies with a salacious smile and I nearly faint.
I get dressed quickly into some cozy yet cute night clothes, and head out to the dining room to grub down on his Cajun creation.
As I enter the room, I’m blown away. There are about a million roses strategically placed on every available surface, along with vases overflowing with them, too. There are petals scattered everywhere as well. I’m taken aback.
“You went all out, didn’t you?” I say, giving him a full smile as he walks into the room, practically swooning at him for his sweet gesture.
I sit down and he serves me a hearty helping, placing a chaste kiss on my cheek and telling me to enjoy.
My first bite’s incredible! The flavors meld together so perfectly. This has to be the best gumbo I’ve had in my life! The fact he made it makes it that much more pleasing.
“So, I’ve got to pick Crystal up at the airport in the morning. Do you want to come with me?” I ask.
“Can I do something fun if I come?” he replies.
“What would that be?” I ask, genuinely curious as to what the hell he has up his sleeve.
“I want to hold up a sign with her name on it,” he says with a cocky grin on his face. How can I say no to something so perfect?
Laughing, I reply, “That sounds awesome! She’ll flip out and so will the tabloids.” Are they smart enough to know he’ll be there that early?
We finish dinner and cozy up in bed, talking about everything and anything, really. He’s so easy to talk to. I’d always thought I would choke if I ever got the chance to talk to him but I can chat to him with such ease, it amazes me!
I ask for a back rub. He obliges and I fall into a deep sleep, thinking about this weekend. Crystal, Vicki and Derik are going to come with us to Estes and Aspen. I’m so looking forward to this!
