Ethan's pov

Reaching home I took a bath cause I was feeling all sweaty and irritated, after taking a bath I checked on little Lucy and she's still sleeping no surprises thank God, I received a call from my boss at my work place 'but I don't have work today ' I thought

" The Jones company is asking for you specifically to deliver their order did you do something to make them request for you? if not please come to work today "

"__"

" Okay "

' well I don't need to waste time in asking him out anymore I will do it today ' I thought

I quickly changed into my working clothes and left for work .

Reaching work I was immediately handed the delivery and I headed to the Jones company on my work motorcycle reaching there to the familiar interior I greeted the receptionist.

She greeted me warmly and told me to head up to the CEO'S office, since I have been here before am no stranger entering the familiar elevator and I reached the first floor fast.

I gently knocked on his office door and heard his deep voice telling me to come in I immediately blushed remembering how and why I left this place first.

As I opened the door I was greeted with Mr. Jones handsome face staring straight at me I suddenly became self aware of my face ' did I fix my hair well? is my face okay? I forgot to rub cream on my face ' as I was lost in my thoughts Gabriel cleared his throat bringing me bad to life once again.

I immediately apologized and walked up to him as I removed my helmet I saw his eyes following what I was doing I wondered' what is he thinking about?',I dropped the pizza on his table ' okay Ethan you can do this ' I silently encouraged myself.

" Um Mr. Jones can we um maybe... we could... no.. could I take you out for dinner?".

" Forget I said that I was just thinking maybe we cou_"

"Yes we can , when do you want to go? I can arrange for a place or we can stay at your place or my place or a restau_"

" Wait wait wait please not my place anywhere but not my place ".

"Okay as long as you are okay with it am okay to,so where would you like?" .

" A sea food restaurant will do" ' I have been having this craving for sea food since, finally I could taste it so.. mission accomplished '.

" So is this a date?or just casual eating?" "It's a date " I said a little too loudly.

He paused at first finding it blunt but he shrugged anyway. I took his silence as a yes.. as I was busy fidgetting with some thread on my clothes when I heard him say " which day and time? ".

Oh yeah which day and time hmm what of tomorrow? I don't have classes tomorrow but I have work at 5 I will ask for a day off since they let me work when I have a day off so its compensation for extra work today "What of tomorrow at 10 are you free?".

" I will make an exception and take a day off too" he said .

"That's fine then" I muttered to myself as I brought out my phone to collect his number while we were exchanging numbers I thought ' why isn't he pushing me away after what I did?' his strange.
