“We will have bes and a half hours between the tie we are supped to be at the cafe and when the movie starts. That should be enough, right?” Huntered me.

“Plenty anough. I don’t think we need to stay that long. We’ll just stay long enough to ensure everything is okay, then we can leave if we want to. Should we wear a disguise?” I said. Hunter lacked and I could see he did his best to mantain his laughter, “What?“.

I just pictured you in a trench coat and a fake moustache, adorable. The best way to get caught is to stand out. I think we will blend in better if we go as ourselves,” he teased me

“Well excuse me for at being an expert, that why I have you,” I told him. He laughed.

“This will be to much, I have never been to cut,” Daid. ”

“he mounds like you are mate isciled to go on a stakeout than to go on our date,” Hunter pointed out with a chuckle.

I wouldn’t get that far, i would say it’s about the same.” We both laughed. We spent the rest of the morning working. It was Saturday, but Hunter needed to go over some contracts and I had finally got my permit for my new business, to I was in planning mode. We sat opposite each other in Huiler’s office and worked. We had a light lunch and then got ready to head out I was looking forward to bring out and about in the real world. I woe my favourite summer dress with small pink and fila: roses all over it and a blue cardigan

“You look beautiful, sweetness,” Harter told me as I walked down the stairs. He was dressed in jeans and a blue shirt with the sleeves rolled up and the top buttons unbutioned. He looked hot.

“Thank you. You look very handsome,” I sl

“We could put stay home,” he suggested and kissed me.

“We could, but then I would be letting icter down.”

“Then it’s best get going. Do you want me to drive or should we take a co?” he asked.

It book ten minutes for the cab to get to us and ten minutes for us to get to the cas “The best thing to do for a stake out is to arrive earlier than the people you are watching so you can find a good spot to sit in,” Hunter told me he had ordered for both of us and we were waiting.

“It should be somewhere hidden, but wit i good view of ment of the space so it wouldn’t momer where they st. Which place should we choose?” he asked me. I looked around and finally decided

“Not a bad place,” Hunter agreed, grabbed our order and walked over to the table with me in bow, kle was holding out the chair for me when the door to the cafe opened and Anthony stepped Inside. Instead of taking the seat opposite me, Hanter moved one of the chairs to be right next to me and sat down, I gave him a lock. “‘s fine, we will look like one of those annoying couples that can’t be apart. And this way, I can see an will,” he explained, droging his arm around my shoulders. I didn’t mind the sole were playing and sled into him. We talked about other things an we kept an eye on Anthony as he ordered and sut down at table. The table he chase was a little to the side and offered some privacy, but clearly visible from where we sat

“Thank you,” I said. Then I saw Wito walking in though the door, I mudged Hunter and discreetly pointed to my friend. He nodded to let me know he understood. I didn’t look away from Wictor anhe arched the room, Anthony spatted Witor before Wictor spotted him. He raised his hand in a greeting and Wictor’s eyes shot to him. I could the smile Wictor put on A misture of exchenient and remes. He rafted his hand to mirer Anthony and then painted toward the outer to say he would just order.

“Lock who’s talking. It was you that told me how much you were enjoying this.” I pointed out.

“Oh no, sweetness. I always have my eyes on you,” he whispered in my ear and I was close to pooning. How could he be this peet and wonderful?

“You are distracting me. I need to focus, the good part is about to start,” I told him and gave him a quick it as I saw Wictor heading towards Anthony’s table with a coffee in his hand. The two of us watched as Wictor and Anthony said hi and Wictor took his seat. There looked to be a silent stretch of time where they both awkwardly sipped their coffee and just locked at each other.

“That looks almost painful,” Hunter commented.

“Shh, give them time,” I hushed him. Finally Anthony made the first move and started talking. I couldn’t hear what he was saying, but after a while Wictor joined in and soon they were looking more relaxed. “Are you seeing this?” I hissed at Hunter. He chuckled, kissed my temple and fed me a piece of his cake.

1am. Tama

also realising you have spoiled me with your baking. This cake wasn’t half as good as it looked,” he told me

“There is nothing wrong with it,” I said.

“No, but it’s not what I’m used to nowadays,” he sighed.

“We can bake something tomorrow,” I suggested.

“I would like that. Can we have the same break time thity as last time we buked?” he asked and kissed my neck. I felt impell turn bright red at the thought and I both heard and felt Hunter chuckle against my skin. I decided I had to be brave or I would never get over this.

“Maybe it my turn to offer the oral break time activity.” I whispered and felt lucky I was already bushing Hunter stopped chuckling

“Fuck, stress. You can’t tell me things 18e that when we are out in public, he whispered back is a dark voice.

“It wasn’t me that started it,” I pointed out. I was momentarily distracted by Wicher laughing I looked over and I saw bath men at the table were smiling and laughing Somewhere during Hunter distracting me, the last awkwardness had disappeared between them. I smiled and nudged Hunter to make him pay attention. “Look, that looks good. Right?” I asked. He gave my neck a final kiss and sat up to focus on Wictor and Anthony.

“It looks like they are getting along,” he confirmed. I watched the two men for a moment and then finished my coffee.

“I think your next lessons to teach me how we get out of here without getting caught, I told Hunter. He tumed back to me,

“You want to leave?” he asked. The surprised look on his face made me smile.

“I don’t want to sit here and spy on them. We were only here in case things went had and Wictor needed saving. I’m confident that he won’t need that. So we can have, unless you want to stay.”

said.

“Nope, I’m done,” he told me, emptying his coffee and taking my hand. “To avoid getting caught we just need to walk out of here without drawing attention to ourselves. That means acting natural. It’s a bonus if we don’t show our faces, but it needs to be natural, so no hand in front of the face,” he told me as he stood up and held out my chair.

“And how do we do that?” I asked and got a brilliant smile from him. He put his arm around me, securing me to the side that faced away from where Wictor and Anthony sat. He then curled

mall down over me to place kisses over my neck and shoulder.

“For this to work, you actually need to walk forward, sweetness, he reminded me after a moment, I had been a wrapped up in him, I had forgotton what we were doing. I just nodded and started walking. Wictor and Anthony were too distracted by each other to pay us any attention. But I caught the eye of a woman sitting at the table closer to the door with a man that was looking at his phone. The jealousy in her eyes as she looked at Hunter and then at me. I gave her a compassionate smile as we left. Hunter may have dressed it as a way to get out of the cafe, but I knew that his lips were skimming my neck because he wanted them to.

As we lefl the cafe Hana stopped and tested someone, Wieter I would guess, as I continued kissing her neck and enjoying bring close to her. To be honest, I had become addicted to the softness of the skin on her neck. I also enjoyed being able to show my feelings for her openly. I was grateful she didn’t object or feel uncomfortable

“All done,” Hana said as she put her phone away. She sounded happy, I liked to think it was at least partly because of me.

“We have no time before the more starts, what do you want to do?” I asked her,

“I know what I would like, but that will have to wait. How about a walk? I could use some fresh air,” she told me. It was the second time she had alluded to their sexual plays. It had the same effect on his this time, he got instantly hand.

ink that is a good idea. But you will have to give me a moment here,” I said. She looked up at me like she didn’t know what I was talking about. E pulled her closer to me and she smiled as aluation hit her. “It’s all your fault an you have an obligation to help me out,” 1 added. She reached up and kissed me.

(p?” she asked. I chuckled. I liked that she was comfortable enough to tease me like this.

“And you think this will help?”

“Maybe. We will just have to try and see.” I said. I did manage to get my hormones under control and took her hand in mine and we walked towards the park that was close to the movie theatre. It was a nice summer evening and there were plenty of people in the park. We stopped to watch a little girl play with her dog. The two of them tumbled around while the girl giggled and the dog let out happy barks,

“I always wanted a rat” Hana told me

“Not a dog?” I miked.

“They are cute too. But there is something about cats that always fascinated me,” she said.

“Please tell me you don’t want one of those naked ones.” She giggled.

“They look kind of weird, in a cate way. But no, 1 would like a fully one, but maybe not with long hair, but definitely fully,” she told me. We had started walking again and I looked at her.

“Why haven’t you gut meľ Lasked.

“When Ived in foster care they wouldn’t let me. Then I moved into the dorms in college and there were no pets allowed. Then Simon forbade me to got on, he didn’t want something to get the house hairy, I was thinking about it when I got my own place, but I was afraid I would work too much and the cat would be lonely,” she said. My heart ached for her, she had been denied so much In her life and yet, she wasn’t bitter about it. I told her about the dog me and my father had when I grew up. Buster. I made her laugh and felt better

“Ready to head for the movie?” I asked her. I wanted her to have plenty of time to pause the candy selection.

“I am. I’m looking forward to it,” she said. I took the opportunity to kiss her. It was a long, sweet kiss. It left her with a soft smile and a slight blush on her cheeks. I loved the look on her.

“Then we better get there,” I told her and placed my arm around her shoulders. I didn’t mos the looks Hana was getting from some of the men. I wasn’t usually the jealous type, but it couldn’t hurt to make sure they knew who the was with. We walked to the movie theatre and I got our tickets and took her to the concession stand. “Pick anything you like,” 1 told her.

“I think it will be enough with a small popcorn and maybe a small soda,” she told me. I raised an eyebrow. I knew where this was coming from and I needed to get her out of her own head.

Sweetness, you are allowed to eat both a piece of cake and movie candy. You are perfect no matter what. And with what I have planned for winen we get home after all your teasing, we will work everything off,” 1 whispered to her. She blushed again and I wanted to trace the red down her neck and explore where it ended. But no ware in public so I made a mental note to explore that train of thought later.

“Okay,” she agreed. I ended up with my arms full of butter popcom, twizzles, Swedish fish and milk duds Hanna was holding our drink, we decided to share a large one. We got to our seats and tried to arrange everything as best as we could. Insisted I needed one arm free to put around her shoulders and she didn’t argue, It was fun bring at the movies, I never went on my own. But I came to the conclusion I preferred it when had movie night at home. Then we could pause and do other things if inspiration hit. Hana leaned closer to me and placed hat head on my shoulder as the movie began. As the movie ended most of the candy was eaten and the ad was empty. “Did you like the movie?” she asked as we walked to the restaurant 1 had booked a table at. She lacked nervous.

“I did.” I told her honestly. When I had seen what

she had picked Thad been wordt would be a romantic one that would require my complete willpower not to noore off. But I wa surprised to find it had action scenes stresen across it. Making it fun to watch.

“Good,” said and led

“Did you?” asked Suddenly warned she had chosen it just for my sake.

“Yes, it had a locle of everything and was fun to watch,” she told me.

“Lagree,” I said as we walked to our table at the upscale chinese start. We ordered and enjoyed the food as we talked about the movie and other movies we liked, or didn’t like. As I had paid and we left the restaurant we were both laughing and I couldn’t remember having a more perfect afternoon in my life. I could see myself spending the rest of my life like this. With Hana everything fell into place. Not everything was easy, but things like this worth putting some effort into. I had ordered a cab home and had told it to meet us at the end of the penenade. It was late in the evening, the sun had set and there weren’t as many people out and about. My instincts told me something was wrong before I saw the first man. When I spotted him walking towards un with purpose it didn’t take me long to spot the others, I could see eight of them and I wore to siyarit
