Owen kept staring at her quietly. The little restaurant faded in the background. He was getting nowhere with her. It was as if he could sense the change of her pattern of thought, the whiff of a thought about a better setting for a contest of wills.
What did she suggest? His office? His penthouse?
Why not both.
She didn't want do this back and forth here. Neither did he.
He didn’t need to listen to what she said anymore. He could see the bratty sass in the curve of her mouth. Her lips were their natural color today. He thought of a couple of ways he could bring some color to that pout.
He pushed his chair back suddenly and gathered up their plates making a pile for whatever employee would come by and pick it up. He took hers too, deciding that she was finished.
He pushed his sleeve back to check his watch. Maybe he looked like he had more important things to do. Or a short window of time for whatever this was. But it so happened his entire afternoon was free. Happy birthday to him. “Let's go.”
“The paperwork is in my office.” He moved for the door and waited holding it open for her. His car nearby chirped only once as he unlocked the doors with his fob. He wasn't the type who needed to incessantly press the button. Just one crisp chirp was enough.
