Chapter 86 - Expensive

Jake led Jade into the restaurant and they were directed to a seat just by the window. A waiter came in to take their orders.

Jade was completely taken by the decor of the restaurant. She looked around taking in the ambience. She never knew a place like this existed. It was so beautiful and from it looks she knew just a serving in this restaurant would be expensive.

"Miss Jade" Jake called out again. Jade has been too carried away appreciating the beauty of the restaurant that she didn't hear Jake call out to her. 

"What would you like for breakfast?" He asked gesturing at the menu lying in front of her. Jade followed his line of sight and saw the menu. She looked at it without out touching it and she looks back at Jake.

"Uhhmm..Sir, I'm not hungry. You should just order for yourself" Jade replied with a fake smile. There was no way she'd let this man buy her breakfast. Even if she did there was no way she'll be able to eat it in peace. Sitting in front of him was making her uneasy then how would she gobble down food in front of him without choking on it.

I'll pass.

"Are you sure, I can..."

"Thanks, but I'm not hungry. I had something before leaving the house" Jade said, if that apple really counted for breakfast.

Jake stared at her for quite some time, before returning his gaze to the waiter who was patiently waiting for his order.

"Get me your breakfast special" Jake said with a smile.

"Okay sir" The waiter replied before walking away.

Jake looked at the lady right in front of him who was now staring at his car parked just behind the huge glass window. She looked like she was entranced by it. He looked at her small heart shaped face, her sea blue eyes that looked like it was glistening with the stars of a whole galaxy, and her lips.

Jake was carried away gawking at her face so much that he didn't realize Jade was now looking at him, with a confused look on her face.

"What?" Jade asked softly. Did she have something on her face. Her voice pulled Jake out of his reverie.

"What did you say?" Jake asked. Obviously he has not heard her. He cringed in his mind for letting her see him stupidly checking her out.

"You were staring. Do I have something on my face?" Jade asked slowly raising her hand to her face.

"No!" Jake exclaimed. "You're so taken by the car, so I was thinking maybe I should get a video game set installed in my car, that way we can have each session in my car. What do you think?"

"Can they do that?" Jade asked curiously. Jake almost chuckled when he realized she was actually taking him serious. He had only said that because he didn't want to outrightly tell her that she has the most beautiful eyes he has ever seen and the most luscious lips he had ever kissed and he couldn't take his eyes off them - Off her.

How was he going to tell her, the image of her naked body and the memories of the night they shared together has been buried deep in his head and he can't stop thinking about it....about her. How was he going to tell her that he really do know how to play the very game she was about teaching him, and that he might actually be better at it than her. Should he tell her that he doesn't know why he was seated there having breakfast from a restaurant he thinks serves the worst breakfast on earth but he was probably going to smile and grin through it all. How the hell was he going to tell her that he didn't know what has happened to him since the first time they met, and that the reason he was going through all this facade was for him to ascertain what it was that has changed in him or what he actually wants from her. This were all the thoughts going through his mind at the moment but he reveals a cute smile and says, "I don't know. We can only ask the manufacturing company"

"Oh" Jade nodded before glancing at the black beaut staring at her behind the glass windows, calling out to her to come touch it.

The waiter finally arrived with the orders. A huge breakfast basket with a variety of pastries were sitted in it. The aroma waft around the table and Jade could feel her stomach grumble. As if Jake heard her now grumbling stomach.

"Are you really sure you don't want anything? Because this is alot and I'm sure i can't finish this" Jake said with a serious look. He was sure she hasn't had a breakfast given the time he had called her this morning. 

"I'm fine. I usually skip breakfast" Jade lied with a convincing smile.

"Okay" Jake said with a shrug before delving in for his meal, while Jade whipped out her phone from her bag to keep herself busy. After a few bites Jake wasn't comfortable with the fact that Jade was just sitting there not eating anything at all. He signalled a waiter over and ordered a glass of juice.

Soon the waiter returned with a glass of juice. Jake placed the glass in front of Jade. She stared at him in utter confusion.

"I know you said you don't want to eat but you just can't sit down and watch me eat without eating yourself. So a glass of juice perhaps?" Jake said with a hopeful smile. Jade looked from him to the glass like she was contemplating if she should accept it.

"Thank you" Jade said as she picked up the glass and took a sip from it. Jake smiled to himself when she finally accepted. He returned his attention to his food which to his greatest surprise was heavenly delicious. He certainly hasn't had a more delicious breakfast since his return and somehow everything today was just happening to his own delight.

Maybe it was just his brain telling him so, or maybe he was truly happy.
