“Hmm,” I shake my head, “Not too good.”

“Oh dear. Well, at least he’s got you.”

“Yeah.” Dad enters my thoughts but before it can take over I shoot them down. “I’ll get you that tea.”

I take Mr Jones his cuppa and set to work on his car.

It takes around an hour and half to do a full service on his car, just as I’m wiping the oil from my hands - Adam walks back in carrying coffee. Ahh! if I didn’t love him before I do now.

He puts the takeaway Costa cups on the floor, runs towards me and picks me up.

“Phwoar, do you know how sexy you look with all that oil on your face.” To the side of us I hear Mr Jones clear his throat.

“You’re weird!” I whisper loudly, “and I have a customer!” My eyes go wide with embarrassment…

“Oh shit. Sorry, babe.”

“Don’t mind me. I remember young love,” Mr Jones says witha wave of his hand. Adam winks at me as he turns back, picks up the coffees and follows us to the office.

I give Mr Jones his invoice, take his payment and see him out. When I return to the office Adam is sitting in my chair with his foot resting on his knee, looking relaxed.

I glance at the desk, I see that not only has he bought me coffee back, but a cookie too. They say it's the little things a person does for you that you should cherish. There's a lot of little things that makes Adam perfect for me.

Yeah, I may keep him.
