Page 64 of Breathing Without You

She walks out to the counter, and I walk away not needing to hear their conversation as I go over and check on my tables.

“Hey, is everything okay over here, can I get you guys anything?” I smile at Tom and Sandy as I walk over to them at my first table. They should be about done so I don’t want to keep them.

“Maybe a box for me I’m getting pretty full.” Tom says with a half-eaten steak and full baked potato.

“Yeah, same here I didn’t put dressing on all of my salad. So, if i could get a box and a small container of dressing that would be awesome.” Sandy leans back in her seat as she places her hands on her stomach like she’s full from eating too much. She is a very tiny woman so I could see how half a salad makes her full.

“Yeah, I can do that, Italian right?” I like to double check to make sure I didn’t forget.

“Yep, thank you sweetie I appreciate it.” She smiles as she grabs her drink and puts the straw between her lips.

“Of course, I’ll be right back with your stuff,” I tell them as I circle around to my next four tables skipping Creedence so I can go to him after I give all my customers that had asked for boxes and anything extra their things. After giving everyone their stuff and taking the checks to the counter to check them out I place the change back on the tables of two of my four tables and walk over to Creedence.

“Hey babe, are you guys ready to order or are you gonna wait till Axton gets back?” I can’t help the smile that forms on my face when I look at him. He’s just so dreamy and it’s so hard to believe someone that looks like him is mine. I love that I get to call this sexy man mine. It’s so hard not to lean down and kiss him right now, but I have to be professional and if I start kissing him now, I won’t want to stop, and I don’t think I’d be able to keep my job after I do the things I’d want to do to him.

“I’m fucking hungry,” he chuckles with a pout. “Sorry babe, I’m not swearing at you, I just didn’t think he’d be over there that long talking to Lisa. I haven’t eaten today.” His pout grows bigger.

“Aww babe, I’m sorry. Order your food, I can come back for Axton. I’m sure he’ll understand why you ordered it already.” I reach out and place my hand on his shoulder, massaging it a little. He lets out a soft groan. “Damn that felt good, you’re good at massaging and you never told me this?” He gasps almost like he’s offended that I never told him. Like I had this huge secret I’ve been keeping from him.

“Well, I never thought about massaging you and you never asked I’m sorry babe, how about tonight I give you a massage?” I grin. Anything that involves this man and touching his god like body I’m down for, you don’t have to ask me twice. “And I mean an actual massage, before you go getting all perv like on me, Mister.” I laugh when his jaw drops in shock.

“Why you gotta go and ruin all my fun like that?” his voice is dramatic and shocked. “And to tease me like that, calling me mister.” He shakes his head a little. “You didn’t even give me the chance to be a perv about it before you just went and took it from me. That was not nice.” As if his pout couldn’t get any cuter it does and it’s even poutier than before, but he throws in his sad eyes with it, crushing my heart along with it.

“Sorry, babe. I wasn’t trying to make you sad I just wanna make you feel good that’s all and I mean in more ways than one.” I wink and immediately smack my face because I just gave him the opportunity to come back with yet again, another perverted comment.

“Mmm,” he growls quietly while moving his finger to show me to lean down closer to him. So, I lean down. “You always make me feel good, Sugar, don’t you worry.” His rough voice makes my thighs tighten together, while instantly making my panties wet.

“Fuck, Creed don’t do this here please, you know I can’t resist you.” I pull away from him real quick before he says anything else to get me going.

“What happened to the quickie in my truck at lunch?” He raises an eyebrow at me with a sexy, seductive smirk on his face that is so fucking sexy.

“Well, unfortunately I’m only going to be able to take a long enough break to call Chastity and explain things to her and then I’m going to have to get back to work, with how late I was I can’t afford to take a break and eat or anything,” I tell him while glancing over at my other tables making sure they aren’t looking over to me. I don’t want them to think I’m favoring him over them.

“Baby, you need to eat, how about instead of calling Chastity you eat something quick.” He grins before looking down at his phone that vibrates on the table flashing Carsten’s name.

“I’ll be fine. I ate at your house before I came to work anyways.” I think back trying to remember what I ate.

“That's good, but still.” He shakes his head a little. “What did you eat?” He sits back and crosses his muscular arms.

God this man is so sexy. The way the veins in his arms stick out as his muscles bulge just from bending them is so sexy, and the way his T-shirt hugs his muscles tightly like it might rip if he flexes too much makes me want to drool everywhere from how hot he is, and his muscles are.

“I umm, I had some toast with jelly,” I almost whisper. I wasn’t expecting him to ask me that and because I know he’s going to be upset about me only eating toast with jelly for the day, but I’ll be fine. I’ve gone the whole day without eating before, by accident of course but then I stuffed my face when I realized I didn’t eat.

“Umm.” He leans forward a little. “You ate what?” He puts his hand to his ear letting me know to speak up because he didn’t hear me.

“I had toast with jelly and some coffee, but I promise babe I’ll be fine. If I get hungry, I’ll get something small and eat between customers.” I look over as Winter walks out of the back room getting ready to start her shift.

“Hey girl.” She starts walking over to me. “I’m so excited to be working with you.” She practically throws herself at me, hugging me.

“Hey sexy.” I wiggle my eyebrows. “Me too, tonight is going to be fun finally,” I tell her since we are both working until ten. I was originally supposed to work until midnight, but Lisa gave two of my hours away to one of the new people which is fine with me because my back will be killing me.

“Hey, Creed, how’s it going?” She looks over asking him with a big smile on her face.

“It’s going pretty good, how about you?” He stands up and reaches out to hug her.

She leans in to give him a hug back. “I’m doing good, a little tired cause the twins didn’t sleep well last night but I’ll be alright.” She yawns half the sentence. “Oh my god, excuse me.” She laughs covering her mouth.

“Sounds like you’ll be falling asleep.” I laugh looking over at her.
