Chapter 80

Brian removed the lid quickly and took a deep pull, thankful that the drink wasn’t that hot, as though Oliver had known…“Why’d you make me drink that?” Brian asked when he got his breath back.

“Mr. ‘Scratch that, make it a double, please’?” Oliver mocked as he made his way back to the counter and served a young couple still debating the menu. Brian stared at the cup of sickly green soup and considered warning the couple against ordering whatever the hell that was but decided against it, rather eyeing Oliver as he made the curve around the counter.

Brian’s attention was taken away from Oliver’s tightly jeaned ass and drawn to soft sobs coming from a few tables over. He strained his neck, trying to see more of the lady who sat hunched over a book not knowing how she could see any words through the tears that should be accompanying those sobs.
