“That’s my man,” she grins proudly.
“Crazy as hell,” I sigh. I fucking love her.
Putting out the shots, I nod at the customer in front of me, putting the shots on her tab. Apparently, the teachers decided to come here to celebrate that there’s no school tomorrow. Something about a teacher planning day.
“Security is tough here,” Kyren smirks, placing a coffee cup in front of me.
“Mmmm. Come to mama,” I groan, snatching the coffee and taking a sip. “How do you know my coffee order, stalker?”
“I texted Syrus,” he grins. “Did they do it right?”
If he had said the order was for me anywhere in town, they’d have told him my order. The advantages of being a coffee addict in Widows Peak.
“It’s perfect,” I moan happily, taking another sip before hiding it under the bar.
“I also got you a buffalo chicken wrap. It’s cut down the middle and you can put it away to eat whenever you want,” Kyren adds, placing the bag in front of me.
“Oh, it’s from the grocery store,” Lexi moans. “They have the best deli and sandwich counter. Good job.”
“Yeah?” he asks, his chest puffing with pride as I take the bag.
“Yeah—”
“Go eat, Silva,” Lexi interrupts. “I’ll grab Briar to fill in while you do. She’s practicing for the weekend.”
She waves at Briar as she swings from the fly pole, before shooing me away.
Well, I am really hungry.Why not?
“I guess I’m having dinner,” I shrug, grabbing my things.
Kyren meets me at the end of the bar, walking me to a table where Izzy and Harlan are. Syrus should be getting off work soon unless…
Sitting down, I pull my phone out as I do. There’s a message waiting for me from Sy, explaining that someone did call out.
Me
Boo. Are you working till four in the morning then?
Syrus
Yeah. I’m still going to follow you home. It means they’re going to cover my morning shift and I’ll be able to sleep in with you.
Me
I have a harem of stalkers. Look at that.
“Syrus?” Izzy asks as I put my phone down on the table. “I might need to kill anyone else that puts a smile on your face like that.”
“Yes,” I say, showing him. “He’s stuck late at work.”
“Your psychopath is showing, Izzy,” Harlan says idly, watching me unwrap my food.
“It’s adorable,” I reply, taking a bite and my eyes immediately begin to shut as I moan happily.
There’s just enough spice, and blue cheese sauce with it helps to round it out.
“I’ll get you a glass of water,” Kyren says, taking off for the bar.
