Chapter 185

“Do you like teaching?”

We’ve gotten our drinks, ordered our food, and now we’re just waiting for everything to be delivered. I’m going to use my time wisely and ask her about anything that comes to mind. Anything that will let me learn more about this woman who’s intrigued me.

“I love it,” she answers, happiness shining from her eyes. “It’s hard being a high school teacher at my age though,” she sighs. “At twenty-four, I’m not much older than they are, and I look younger than I am.”

“You do,” I agree. “But there’s something about those blue eyes of yours that kind of drag me in. With a look, they tell anyone that you’re old enough to know what you like.”

I’ve caught her looking at me like that a few times. Like she wants to know all my secrets and what I look like without a shirt on. Can’t say I don’t want to know all of that about her too.
