Cory glanced at her and then back at me. “See ya, Sam.” He gave me a wink. “And remember what I said.” He turned around and followed his girl out of the restaurant.

Was he serious? Had he really just hit on me while he was on a lunch date with his girl? Damnit. Pathetically, the worst part of that whole thing was that
he had a girl
.

Shelly was looking at me with wide eyes. “What the hell was that about? And who was that guy?”

“Sam, table for two,” the hostess called out.

We stood. “He’s no one.”

Shelly followed me to our table. “You know I’m not going to let you off the hook that easily.”

I thanked the hostess and picked up a menu, completely ignoring her comment. “So what is good here?” I asked, in hopes that we could change the subject.

She reached over and shut my menu, placing it on the table. “No way. Some super hot guy, who’s here with his girlfriend, comes up to you and offers to
show you something
, and you’re going to say that it’s nothing? Spill, woman!”

I cringed at the word girlfriend, and looked up to meet her eyes. “Maybe that wasn’t his girlfriend.”

“That is your response? How about telling me who he is and what he wants to show you.” she said with frustration.

I sighed. “He’s just some guy I met on Saturday.”

“Where did you meet him?”

“Jessie took me to some off-roading expo, he was there. He was riding in a demo.”

“Riding? Riding what?”

“A dirt bike.” My mind drifted back to the impressive stunts I’d seen him do. “He’s really damn good. He did a backflip and some other crazy tricks.”

She looked at me in disbelief. “You’re telling me that you were hanging out with that impressive specimen of a man, and you weren’t going to tell me about it?”

“We didn’t
hang out
, I just said I’d met him. That’s all.”

She continued her interrogation. “What exactly is he so eager to show you then?”

I felt myself blush as I admitted to her, “I really don’t know.” Although, I had to admit I was more than curious to find out. In fact, the curiosity was ruling my thoughts.

Shelly raised her brow at me with a suspicious look. “Mhmm. Sure.”

“It doesn’t matter anyway, he was here with someone. I don’t know why he even bothered to acknowledge me.” That thought dampened my spirits. “Let’s just order.”

“Okay,” she replied hesitantly, clearly still waiting for the missing part of my story.

After a lunch of sliders and fries, we headed back to the store to finish out the afternoon. As I sat in my office double checking a new order of books, my mind kept returning to Cory.  I don’t know why, but he’d really left an impression. I wanted to run into him again.
I wanted him to show me.

 

Will Cory show Sam his sexy secret?
