grin. That grin awarded him many lady friends and had gotten him into trouble more than once.
“Hey bro, saw your bike out front and thought I’d come in and have a bite with you. I didn’t realize you already had company.” He glanced over at Atayla. “Hello, Miss Parker. What in the world are doing having dinner with my knucklehead brother? I thought you had better taste than that.” Paxton said with that ever present grin still on his face.
Atayla looked back and forth between the two men. “Of course, I don’t know why I didn’t put it together before. You could be his twin you look so much alike. Mr. Aiello, I haven’t seen you in a while. How have you been?”
“Please call me Paxton, or Pax, whatever. That Mr. Aiello shit makes me want to look over my shoulder for my father.”
“You two know each other?” Aidan asked, looking confused.
“She is my lawyer’s assistant. I think I spend more time talking to her than I do with Bill, but I can’t complain too much since she’s so pretty to look at.” He winked at her.
Atayla’s face turned red with embarrassment. “Call me Tayla. Why don’t you have a seat and join us for dinner?”
Paxton looked at Aidan and barked a laugh. The look he received said loud and clear that he wasn’t invited, but the ringing of his cell phone kept him from responding. A few moments later, he hung up his phone and turned to Atayla.
“Maybe next time, sugar. Looks like I’m headed to the pub to have a beer and wings with Knox and Clint. I’ll see you two around.” With a wave, he walked towards the door and exited the restaurant.
“You said you have three brothers. Do you all look so much alike?”
“No, Pax and I resemble each other the most. There are some similarities between all of us, but not to that extreme.”
They finished their meal in relative silence. They both hated for the evening to end, but it was already getting dark outside and the work week wasn’t over yet.
“When will I be able to see you again?” Aidan asked with a hopeful look on his face.
“What are you doing Friday? Maybe we could get together that evening.”
He shook his head. “I can’t. The band plays at The Den this Friday. I’ll work the shop until eight then head over to the club to play by nine. We won’t pack up until three in the morning. How about Saturday?”
“Saturday is margarita night with the girls. We get together once a month as our schedules allow. It just happens to be this Saturday.” She sighed.
After some volley back and forth of times and dates, they finally agreed to meet at The Hot Spot for lunch on Tuesday. Now all Aidan had to do was change some appointment times around in order to make it happen. He hoped it wouldn’t cause too many problems.
When the bill came, he paid it with cash and told the waitress to keep the change. Holding Atayla’s hand, he walked her outside to her car. Now that dinner was officially over, he was grabbing every extra second he could with her.
While waiting as she fished her keys out of her bag, he gave her a thorough once over. Even dressed in her business attire she was sexy as hell. He could tell she tried to hide her body behind her clothing, though he didn’t know why.
Her blouse was loose and buttoned up to her neck. Her slacks were baggy, and the jacket she wore hung below her hips. She may think people don’t notice her femininity when she dressed like that, but he was sure they did.
Right now, imagining what she looked like underneath her armor, his cock was so hard it throbbed. He was clearly going to have to jerk one off when he got home. He just hoped she didn’t see the bulge in his pants.
Finally retrieving her keys from her bag, she opened her car door and turned to say goodbye to Aidan. A gasp barely escaped before his lips descended upon hers. The kiss was hesitant at first, as though he
