I stood at the bar, a little spaced out. "Okay, what is going on?" Mason pleaded at me. I looked at him then glanced behind him to see Orion sitting at the table still, looking at me. I sighed. "He's really no one, a friend of a friend. I met him at a party last night and he wants to sleep with me." I said to Mason, shrugging it off. Mason was that one coworker who loved to be in all the drama and everyone's business, which could be annoying but honestly he's pretty tolerable. "The hot tattooed guy wants to fuck you and your problem is what?" He asked me like I'm stupid. I laughed as he looked at me bewildered. "That's not my thing, Mason, you know that. Maybe he's also into guys and you have a chance." I said tying to change the subject as I felt my cheeks heating.

"Yeah yeah, you say that's not your thing. But relationships also aren't your thing. So what is your thing Lil? Because that man is impossibly attractive and he can't take his eyes off you." I rolled my eyes. "He's probably got more experience in that area than I ever could and I well...I don't have any experience that would interest him." I said cutting oranges. "Oh come on. I'm sure he's fucked a lot of girls but you're hot, Lil. I'm sure you're experience level isn't a huge deal." Mason tried to persuade me and I took a deep breath. "Mace...my experience level is zero. He does not want me. He wants the chase of someone who doesn't give into him immediately." He paused, turning his full attention to me with a shocked look on his face. "Woah woah wait a minute. Are you telling me you're a virgin?" He whispered the last part like he was saying the most distasteful thing ever.

I gave him a look and his eyes widened. "Okay, no. I can't believe this. What are we talking here Lil? Like just no sex or like no touching, kissing, nothing?" I felt embarrassed as he pressed for more information. "Nothing okay. I've kissed like 2 guys, that's it. Guys weren't into me in school or anything and after I graduated I've pretty much kept to myself. It's not that big of a deal. Like I said, I am the last person who anyone wants to have a one night stand with." Mason eyed me with empathy. "For what it's worth Lily, it's not because you're not attractive by any means. And experience doesn't really matter with women. You might need a little direction but guys don't care about that shit. It's them who does all the work." He shrugged. I gave him a soft smile.

Orion stayed for the next two hours of my shift until we were closing up. His friends paid their tab at the bar and left out after saying goodbye to him. He made his way to the bar and stood in front of me. I grabbed his card and printed his receipt, handing it to him. "You didn't take your money." He said, studying me as he caught my eye. I looked away, keeping busy. "Keep it." I said simply. I could feel his gaze all over me and I wanted nothing more than for it to stop so I didn't have to feel flustered. "I am a man of my word, love. I told you I'd make sure you were taken care of." His voice was dark, like his mood had changed from playful but I didn't meet his eyes or even look at him. I tried to hint to Jace and Mason but they smirked. "We're going to sweep and mop the back, Lil." Mason called as they left towards the back, leaving me alone with him.

I tried to finish my closing cleaning while ignoring him but he just stood there, pen in his hand, not doing anything. After 20 minutes had passed I was finished and sighed as I finally looked back up into his green eyes. "We're closed. Sign your receipt or not, I don't give a shit but I'd like to leave." I said leaning both my hands on the counter looking at him expectingly. His grip on the pen tightened and he wrote something down before setting it down. I went to grab it but he caught my hand, trapping it under his.

I held eye contact with him, not moving or saying anything. He finally released my hand and I turned around to put the receipt into the till. I caught a glimpse of the tip and almost had a heart attack but didn't look at it fully so I could leave quickly. "Thank you for your business, have a wonderful evening." I slipped away into the back room and gathered my things quickly, slipping my hoodie on and grabbing my keys out of my purse. "Bye!" I called to Mason and Jace, practically running towards the door before they could ask any questions. I wanted this night to be over.

I made my way across the parking lot and I saw a motorcycle a couple spots from where my car was parked. I sucked in a breath, hurrying to my car as I didn't see him anywhere. Just as I opened my door I felt a hand on my waist. His body pressed into my back as his scent and warmth enveloped me. He breathed me in, inhaling deeply and exhaling as I felt my chest rise and fall rapidly. "Let me at-least give you a taste of what you're missing." He whispered against my neck before spinning me around. He pressed my back against the car door and his lips were on mine before I had the chance to react at all.

I didn't even have time to think about anything, it seemed like a natural instinct that kicked in as my lips fell into a motion with his quickly. One of his hands traveled up my body to wrap loosely around my neck and the other held onto my hip tightly, pressing me into him. I could feel his cock pressing into me through the materials that separated us and there was no doubt in my mind that I was soaking wet at just the feeling. I'd never experienced anything like it and it was over before I knew it. His lips pulled away as he leaned his forehead to mine, both of our breathing heavy. He brushed his thumb against my bottom lip and a shiver ran through me. "Take that tip I left you and get yourself a new car. Preferably something that's not going to get you killed. Can't have you getting damaged, my love." He said deep and sultry, his lips grazing mine as he spoke. I didn't say anything and he inhaled deeply again before pulling away.

He got on his bike and put his helmet on before saying, "I think I'll be sticking around for a while this time." He smirked, starting his bike and driving off. I let out a breath I was holding. "Holy fucking shit." I got in my car quickly, locking the doors and sat there for a few minutes, starring ahead. What the fuck just happened?

For the first time in a long time I couldn't sleep last night. My mind raced and my heartbeat quickened every time I thought back to Orions lips on mine. I wont lie, I spent a decent amount of time using my mental images of him and his hand wrapped around my throat as fuel for my self pleasure. But after that I was just tossing and turning. I remember the text message alerting me to the deposit in my bank account from work tonight. I had glanced at the tip Orion had left me but I was sure I read it wrong until I saw that message. A direct deposit in the amount of $21,076. He had tipped me Twenty. Thousand. Dollars. I do pretty okay for myself but that man must be off his rocker doing something like that. Obviously I knew he had money but that's insane, he's insane.

~~ I smirked to myself as I got out of the new, well new to me, black suv. If he was going to be weird and stalk me at my job I could at least get something nice out of it. I walked inside, feeling pretty good about my new purchase. He was right when he suggested I might need a new car. My last one I bought for maybe $600 a couple years ago. It was all I could afford at the time and truly was a piece of shit when I got it so I'm surprised its lasted as long as it did. Sure it had a little death wobble, the gear shift got stuck often and it would occasionally shut off in the middle of driving but it did the job for what I needed.

I was making myself a late lunch/dinner when my front door opened to reveal Maya and Spencer. I looked up, raising my eyebrows. "Hey babes!" Maya smiled, sitting at my kitchen island. "Hi. What are you guys doing here?" I asked. "Who's car is that?" Spencer asked, walking in the kitchen. "Mine." "Dang, I knew you did good on tips but you must have been saving for a bit for that one." Maya said, shrugging it off and taking a piece of the cheese I had cut for myself. I just hummed, nodding and Spencer gave me a knowing look like he knew. "Can we stay for dinner?" She asked, getting a glass out of the cabinet and pouring herself and Spencer a glass of the wine I was drinking. I shrugged. "Sure, I'll have to make some more dough though." Despite me not being a social butterfly I loved cooking for people so I really didn't mind them popping by for dinner occasionally.

When I had finished kneading a large batch of pasta dough Spencer spoke up after Maya had went to the bathroom. "Oh, I invited Orion over. He's staying in town for a while and I figured it be nice if we had an old fashion game night like we used to." He smirked. I froze for a moment, turning to him, "Aren't you the one who warned me not to play with fire? I don't want that psychopath knowing where I live." He chuckled, taking his jacket off and throwing it over the back of the couch. "I did. However, I've been informed by Orion that him staying away from you isn't going to be an option. And I've been yelled at by Maya that I 'shouldn't interfere with the only guy who's ever made you blush' so." I groaned. "What is his issue? He's clearly never heard the word no." Spence laughed. "Like I said, he's not accustomed to being turned down." I sighed. "I dont like people in my space." I grumbled and he patted my back. "I know Lil but saying no to the boss really isn't an option." I snorted, rolling my eyes. "Maybe not for you."

I was rolling out my dough into nice sheets when the doorbell rang. "I got it!" Maya said, way too happy. I chugged down my glass and poured another, mentally preparing myself to come face to face with the man I quite literally got off to last night. "Nice to see you again, Maya." He said. I stayed busy, not looking up. "Hey man, thanks for inviting me." He said to Spencer. "No problem bro. Maya and I are getting game night set up, Lil's in the kitchen making ravioli, why don't you grab a glass." I heard footsteps walking into the kitchen and I heard him set something on the counter. "What a beautiful sight you are to see." I looked up at him, rolling my eyes. I resisted the urge to completely check him out. "I heard its only polite to bring a gift when your a guest." He said, nodding to the extremely expensive bottle of wine. "How nice of you." He wore a beautiful smile on his face as he took in my appearance. I wiped my hands off on the apron I had on and turned towards the cabinets to grab another wine glass.

I felt his body press against mine as he reached up into the cabinet to grab it instead. His hands rested on either side of mine on the counter and he leaned down close to my ear. "Did you think of me last night my love? " He whispered, his lips grazing my ear. I stayed silent, calming my inner self that could only think about his lips on mine and warmth pressing into me. "Because you were certainly all I could think about. God, I was so hard thinking about your lips on mine. I had to jack off as soon as I got home so the feeling of your tits pressed against my chest was still ingrained in my brain. I pictured your luscious, delicious lips wrapped around my cock as I came, moaning your name. Did you touch yourself thinking of me angel? I just know you were so wet for me." My pulse was racing and my body was reacting to his lips brushing against my neck as he spoke dirty words to me. I bit my lip and closed my eyes, trying to pull myself together. When I remained silent and still he chuckled, bringing his hand up the side of my thigh, along the curve of my hips and waist, to the curve of my breast. His large hand cupped my left breast, squeezing softly as he pressed me tighter against him. "Don't worry love, Ill be on my best behavior tonight." He placed a soft kiss on my neck before pulling away from me and pouring himself a glass of wine. I took a few steady breaths before composing myself and returning to making the filing for the ravioli. Orion sat at the counter, smirking across from me.

I managed to make the ravioli despite him not taking his eyes off me. And soon later I was making 4 plates. "It's ready." I called so Maya and Spencer would hear me. I sat a plate in front of Orion and he smiled at me, thanking me. I hummed, turning away to open the bottle of wine he brought. I uncorked it and filled my glass before walking over to his and filling his as well. Maya me Spencer trailed in the kitchen, laughing about something. "This looks amazing, Lil. I love when you cook." Maya gushed. Spencer nodded in agreement and reached for the new bottle of wine, pouring some in both of their glasses. We all sat at the island and ate. It's not my best ravioli but everyone else seemed to like it as they complimented the food highly. I just smiled and thanked them.
