7: Legs popping and flirting

 His lips were exactly as soft as they looked and he tasted sweet with a hint of wine and something she could not describe. When Amelia felt his tongue run over her bottom lip asking permission, she opened her mouth to him, her tongue welcoming his.

 Her hands were in his hair, and.. What ? Seriously, did my leg just pop like in an old romantic movie ? She thought and yes it actually did.

She felt out of breath when he ended the kiss and she was wondering if it would be too early to invite him inside.

 What she didn’t know was how he was fighting his wolf. It was pacing and howling, his teeth were itching and his mouth watering as it tried to break free.

 But he managed to push it down, sent her a dazzling smile and gave her a chaste kiss. "See you tomorrow darling, sleep well".

 "You too. See you". She said, happy that he didn't push for anything, most guys would have expected to get some action after a date like that.

 She watched him walk back to the car and waved at him when he got in, why did he have to live on the other side of the planet ? It was so not fair.

 His wolf was scolding him, but he was ignoring it. He wanted to do right by her. She was his mate after all.

 When she had changed for the night, she checked her phone, she had a message from Linda.

 ‘Okay seriously, is he a millionaire or something ? That must have cost a fortune’.

 She bit her lip, still feeling a bit bad about him spending all that money, the internet page he ran must be really popular.

 ‘Yup $1500 with tips, saw it when he paid’.

 Amelia flopped down on the bed, her phone buzzed and she expected a message from Linda, but it was from Connor. 

 ‘Thank you for a great evening darling, miss you already, can't wait for tomorrow. Love Connor’.

 She wrote back right away. 

 ‘I am the one thanking, it was the most amazing and romantic evening ever, so thank you. Looking forward to tomorrow’.

 She had gotten a message from Linda in the meantime. 

 ‘And he didn't expect to get something in return ?’

 She grins, knowing exactly what lines her friends thoughts were working.

 ‘Nope, hadn't I said anything, he probably wouldn't even had kissed me. But damn I am happy I did, seriously my leg popped …you know like in old movies’.

 She could just imagine Linda squealing and clap her hands. 

 ‘Uhh Ami, see I told you the perfect man would come along and that one sounds like a dream’.

 Yeah he really did seem perfect, so what was he hiding ? No one is that perfect, maybe he had something to compensate for ? Maybe he is sexually deviant or he might have the worlds smallest dick or maybe it is all a sham and he is a liar like most men.

 Amelia snuggled into her bed and fell asleep, she decided that she would give him the benefit of the doubt, let him show if he was for real, but she would keep her guard up.

 "How was the date with your hot American ?" Amelia had just walked into her workplace, when Maria asked her.

 She grinned and winked. "Well he is a good enough kisser to make my leg pop and he is picking me up after work".

 She told Maria everything about their date and her colleague was pretty impressed, Amelia couldn't help but feel proud having a.. Well she guessed a boyfriend who spoiled her like that.

 Just around 6 pm Amelia was fixing napkins and cutlery in a back room, when Maria stuck in her head. "Sweetie seems like your boyfriend is early".

 "Is he here ? Now ? Well yes that is early". She said a bit confused, fixing her hair and clothes.

 Maria nodded. "Yup, he is at the bar and June is just about done for. He is a big flirt that one, better watch out".

 "Oh yeah, he just doesn't realise. He is just so damn nice and charming to everyone that it seems like flirting". She answered, June was the bartender working that day.

 She walked into the restaurant and spotted him right away, he looked relaxed in jeans and a striped hooded sweatshirt. Still most women in the room were eyeing him and well June was flushed and giggling and clearly interested.

 She walked towards the bar and he turned his head, as he spotted her, his face lit up in a dazzling smile. "Hi Connor, why are you here already ?"

 "I was getting bored and I missed you, so I thought I could just wait for you here. I hope it's okay ?" His arms snaked around her waist and he kissed her gently.

 She kind of enjoyed that everyone could see they were a couple. "Of course it is okay, but might be a bit boring".

 "Boring ? Not when I get to sit here and watch you darling". She blushed and June all but swooned.

 Amelia wished she didn't have to work, she didn't like that June could stand there talking to him and flirting with him and she couldn't. "Have you had dinner ?"

 "Not yet, what about you ? Have you eaten anything today ?" He looked at her with concern.

 She bit her lip, she had wanted to get him away from the bar and away from June. "Had some breakfast, haven't really had time since".

 "What about we grab something with us back to your place ?" He looked at her and she nodded.

————————————————————————————————————-

 Amelia hated seeing how June was clearly flirting with him, but to his defence he didn't even seem to notice. He was nice and polite, but his eyes were on her almost constantly and he didn't pay much attention to June.

 "She isn't shy that one ?" Maria came over, nodding towards June who was really trying to catch Connor's attention.

 Amelia nodded and glared at the bartender. "Yeah, she obviously doesn't care at all that I can see everything".

 "But don't worry sweetie, I have been standing close enough to hear them for the past 10 minutes, and he isn't biting. He only has eyes for you". Maria said grinning.

 Amelia looked at Connor and when he saw it, he sent her another dazzling smile, which she returned.

 Both him and his wolf were feeling annoyed at the woman behind the bar. But he stayed friendly towards her. Both because she could be a friend of Ami and also because he tenses to always treat women with respect.

 "I am ready to go now". Amelia had just grabbed her things in her locker and now she walked up to Connor at the bar.

 He jumped down from the bar stool and gave her a small kiss before grabbing her hand. "Cool, let's get going then".

 "See you Connor". June said with a sweet sugary voice and Amelia seriously felt like biting off her head.

 But it helped a lot with her anger that Connor didn't even look at June but just said. "Bye bye".

 Again him and his wolf agreed, they wanted to get Ami alone as fast as possible.
