Can’t watch this show without thinking of you.
I’m not sure if that’s sweet or creepy, I said.
Definitely creepy, he replied, and I scoffed at his joke.Still on for lunch tomorrow?he asked.
The look on his face when he’d left my office that morning had been ingrained in my mind since.
Yeah, I answered, a warmth spreading over my cheeks.Though, I should have asked Jasmine if I already had a meeting then.
I took care of it. She cleared your calendar for me tomorrow.
I reread the text.When did you have time to do that?
Before leaving today.
Perks of being the big boss?
Big boss
Owner
Official matchmaker
God, I suggested.
You’re the only one I want calling me that
I shook my head at his banter.So are you picking me up from my office?
I have a car scheduled to pick you up in the morning.
Something about that statement took me aback. A car… It sounded like something Tyler would do—impersonal and showy. An uncomfortableness washed through me, and I twisted my lip in thought.
Fancy… Could you pick me up instead?
The dots strummed at the bottom of the screen.It’s a nice car.
I don’t need your money, I said.But time… time would be nice.
I stared at my phone, waiting on his reply for over a minute.
I’ll pick you up at ten, he finally replied.
I thought this was just lunch.
It’s an all-day lunch.
I almost laughed.You don’t know where I live.
Send me your address.
What should I wear?I asked.
Preferably nothing.
Gavin.
Casual, he replied.Jeans.
