Chapter 35

Liliana's pov :
"Why won't we go on a date, now?" Jason made a puppy face but I couldn't cheat at my job. I had some protocols and I won't break them. He could make me do anything with those innocent puppy eyes but I had to be strong, it was just starting and I couldn't lose like that.
"I have a job, Jason." I notified him with a tough look on my face.
He peeked at me with perplexed eyes, "why do you want to do a job when you can just chill and enjoy your life with me?" He winked at me and smirked. I could see his face in the side mirror of his bike.
Oh, boy! Please, don't give me a reason to question my feelings for you! I had a job and I was so tired of explaining to everyone else why I wanted to do that job.
"Because I want to be a doctor with hard work and dedication, my career is my priority, and doing a job reminds me that it's just the starting phase of toil, and if you have any problem with my being a waitress, you still can date any other girl," I shrugged.
He started giggling, "you are blusterer and that's why I like you. I respect your hard work and trust me, I'm proud of you."
"I don't know why I like you? I haven't found the reason yet, you should give me a reason to like you," I rolled my eyes and climbed off his bike but I knew very well why I liked him.
He also got off his bike and grinned, "why did you kiss me? You should have a reason for that," he pressed his lips to hide his chuckle.
I didn't think twice before kissing him, I just felt like if I couldn't tell him then, maybe I could never share with him how I felt for him. And to my wonder, he wasn't stunned when I kissed him, he kissed me back as he was just waiting for it. So the feelings and attraction were mutual.
"Hello!" He snapped his fingers as I just lost in the memories of the moment when I kissed him. His soft and smooth lips made me feel something extremely strange from this world that I couldn't explain to anybody.
"Yes! Um, I'm getting late for work, bye!" I quickly went into the restaurant, he was saying something but I couldn't hear anything as I was busy blushing and shooing away the memories of our kisses. The last kiss we shared was deeper and longer than the last one, I was looking forward to all the kisses that we'll share in the future.
I instantly wore an apron and started making the coffee, my phone beeped but I ignored it as my hands were busy with coffee.
Taking a mug and putting it beside the coffee machine, I took the chocolate syrup to make a heart on the coffee. Grinning, I finished up with a beautiful heart design on the top of the coffee mug.
"One cappuccino, please!" Someone came into the kitchen and whispered into my ear.
I turned to see who it was, "Jason!" My voice came out as a shock and was louder than I intended.
"You should call me Jay or baby, I won't mind if you call me baby or sweetheart or darling, hmm," he hugged me from behind so I couldn't see him smiling.
"Eww, baby? Jay is way better than any other names, okay!" I tried to loosen myself from his grasp, "what are you doing here? Why didn't you go home? And nobody is allowed in the kitchen area except the staff, don't tell me that you joined the job of a waiter here." My eyes widened as I tried to analyse the reason.
He immediately made me face him, I was on the kitchen counter and he laid his hands on the counter so I was stuck between the counter and him. He leaned forward, so closer to me, I could feel his breath on my nose and slowly our breath became heavy and he kept moving slowly way too close to me.
"It's m..y work...place," I stammered through closed eyes. He traced my face with his finger and my heart was racing, "don't worry! I won't do anything," he touched my ear with his lips while murmuring into my ear.
Suddenly, I felt outraged by his words and behaviour. I took some deep breaths and pushed him away from me, "why are you here? Leave, right now!" I shouted pointing towards the door of the kitchen.
"Why are you looking pissed off? You stopped me, right?"
No, I'm not gonna hide anything from him, being honest is necessary for my peace of mind.
"First of all, you surprisingly appear and then, you give me torture and when I want it, you say I won't do anything in your fucking sexy voice, what the fuck! How am I not supposed to be pissed off?" I blurted out and rolled my eyes.
He stifled a giggle, "so, you want it? Then, why did you stop me?" He laid his hands on his waist.
He was looking breathtaking hot then. "Because it's my workplace and I don't want to be seen in this awkward moment," I mumbled but didn't look into his eyes.
"I don't give a fuck about the world, we want it and that's enough for me," as soon as he finished saying it, he lifted me up and made me sit on the counter and started kissing me.
I didn't protest, it was our third kiss in just one day. We were badly attracted to each other, and we were afraid of falling in love though we couldn't resist the desire.
His lips crashed onto mine and his hands caressed my neck and back, and my whole body was burning with his touch, butterflies started tickling in my stomach, I laid my hands on his neck and chest and started kissing him back with all my feelings.
"What the…! Sorry!"
We quickly broke the kiss and saw Emily standing in the kitchen. She covered her eyes with her palms and turned her face towards the wall, "the customer is waiting for coffee, I have to take the coffee, sorry for disturbing you."
"It's okay! You can continue your work," he put his hand on my waist and brought me closer, "we'll carry on ours," he grinned and my hands fell on his chest by his sudden movement.
He started kissing me with the same passion, I could hear Emily snickering and I blushed while kissing him. My hands discovered the comfortable posture to lay on him as he was continuously trying to bring me more and more close.
I curled my arms on his neck and kissed him back with all my love. I was confused between attraction and love but I couldn't protest that my heart was falling for him and somewhere love was trying to take the place of attraction.
I heard someone's footsteps so I stopped him and we again parted away from each other.
"Jay? What are you doing here?" Mrs? Fennimore came and asked him.
"Nothing! Um, coffee! I wanted coffee so badly that I had to come to the kitchen because your waitress is sluggard in doing her job," he went to Mrs. Fennimore.
I narrowed my eyes on him, he could give a better explanation, "why don't you make your coffee by yourself, then?" I went outside of the kitchen without throwing a second glance at him.
"You shouldn't tease her like this, Jay," I heard Mrs. Fennimore saying that and I smiled in victory as she was by my side.
I checked my phone, and there were two messages from two people.
Fiona sent me a text that she would meet me in the evening at my home. I was happy to read her message, she finally got her love and George also stopped being an asshole.
The second message was from Jay, he asked me about our relationship.
"What are we?" He again whispered into my ear from behind.
I disassembled my blush, "nothing!" I crossed my hands.
"Congratulations!" Emily came and hugged me with a wide smile on her face.
I hugged her back awkwardly, "can you just stop being a stupid girl, Emily?"
"What? What did I do?"
"You didn't shut your mouth," I frowned.
She pulled out herself from the hug, "I just asked her what we are and she said 'nothing'," Jay made an innocent face and told her.
"What? How could you say nothing, Lia? Who kisses someone who means nothing to you? Don't worry, she is your girlfriend, boy!" She assured Jay.
I tried to steal the gaze from them as she pronounced the kiss, my heart was already going crazy.
"I'm not, we are just friends," I raised my hands in defence.
I could notice the rage in his eyes, "yes, we are just friends. But we are dating," he crossed his arms and announced while looking into my eyes.
"Dating?" A girl shouted from my behind.
