noticed him walking towards me.

“Miss Lane told me to tell you she’s not available this evening and that she has plans. She also said

that if you want to have dinner with her, then you should pick up the phone and ask her,” he started to

laugh.

“I’m glad you’re finding this amusing, Denny.”

“I’m sorry, Connor, but she doesn’t take orders from anybody. She’s one-of-a-kind.”

I shook my head and looked down. “She’s mad about this morning. I know she is. You’re right,

Denny, she is one-of-a-kind, and I need to make things right. Take me to her apartment,” I said as we

exited the restaurant.

“She’s not at her apartment,” Denny said.

“How do you know?”

“I followed her after she declined your dinner invitation. She’s dining alone at a pizza place called

Pizzapopolous.”

“Then it looks like I’m having dinner there tonight.”

I stood in front of the window and watched her as she sat at a small table, fumbling for something

in her purse. She looked just as beautiful as she did last night. I walked through the door of the small

restaurant and sat down across from her. She looked up at me and rolled her eyes. That attitude of

hers was arousing.

“So this is where you want to have dinner?” I asked.

She cocked her head to the side. “Yes, Connor, this is where I’m having dinner tonight, and I don’t

believe you were invited.”

I put my hand over my heart. “Ouch, that stings, Ellery. I invited you to dinner, and you turned me

down, so I took it upon myself to join you.”

“How do you know I want company?” she asked.

I put my hands on the table and folded them. “I don’t, but since I’m here, we might as well dine

together,” I said as I looked around the restaurant.

She shook her head and lightly smiled. I opened up the menu and glanced at it as the waitress

stopped at our table to take our orders. I used to eat pizza when I was a kid. I haven’t had it in years

and I wasn’t about to start now. Just as I placed my order for an antipasto salad, Ellery reached over

and grabbed the menu from my hands.

“You can’t sit in a pizza place and only get a salad.” she said.

The waitress was eyeing me and wouldn’t stop to look at Ellery. She cleared her throat to get her

attention.

“We’ll have a large deep dish with pepperoni, mushrooms, and black olives, and a large antipasto

salad with an order of bread sticks,” she smiled.

I brought my finger up and rested it on my lips, “Do you actually think I’m going to eat that pizza?”

“I don’t think you are; I know you are,” she smiled.

Damn that smile. I’m finding it very difficult to say no to this girl. It’s like she has some control

over me, and I just can’t help it when I’m around her. The waitress brought the pizza and set it in the

middle of the table. I looked at it and then at Ellery who was putting a slice on my plate. I grabbed my

fork and knife and started to cut into it when out of nowhere, she startled me.

“What, are you kidding me?! Put that down right now, Connor Black!”

“What? What the hell is wrong?”

“You are not eating pizza with a fork and knife,” she said as she leaned over the table and took

them from my hands.

“Then how the hell am I supposed to eat it?” I frowned.

“Like this; pick it up and bite into it,” she said as she chewed.

“That’s disgusting, and don’t talk with your mouth full.”

She cocked her head, and a smirk came upon her face. “If you won’t do it, then I will,” she said as

she grabbed the pizza from my plate and held it to my mouth.

“Bite,” she demanded.

I raised my eyebrows at her, “Do you have any idea how sexy that sounds?” I winked. That was the

sexiest thing coming from her, and I started to get aroused.

I couldn’t deny this beautiful woman who was holding a slice of pizza in my face, so I opened my

mouth and took a bite. It was worth it just to see the smile on her face.

“My turn,” I smiled back at her.

“Your turn for what?” she asked.

I took the pizza and held it up to her mouth.

“Bite,” I demanded.

I couldn’t help but smile because she was so damn cute when she took that bite. We sat and talked

about art while we ate pizza, salad, and bread sticks. I was having a great time in Pizzapopolous,

sharing pizza with Ellery. A part of me was glad she turned me down for the first dinner invitation.

Her phone rang and she answered it with a strange look on her face. I pulled out my phone to check

my messages, and I looked up to see a tear running down her cheek. Her face turned from happy to

pain in a matter of seconds. Without even realizing what I was doing, I reached for her hand that was

resting on the table. She was as white as a ghost when she hung up the phone, and I became worried.

She had received the devastating news that her aunt and uncle were just killed in a car accident. She

said she needed to get out of there as she quickly stood up from her chair. I threw
