Levi looked at Jackson, maintaining and breaking eye contact at random intervals as he awaited a response to AJβs where-a-bouts. Jackson took a sip of the coffee before him, letting it cool him for a moment before speaking. "Uhm, last I saw she was standing at the counter. I turned my back for a moment to talk to someone so after than I have not."
βOh.β Levi eyes darted around the room in search of the girl. βI think I see her, thank-β before Levi could utter another word, he was interrupted casually by the man before him. "You're not late, are you, Levi?" Jackson shot him an impish smirk, locking eyes with Levi for a few brief moments. βLate..? Me?β Levi appeared tense as a light blush appeared in his cheeks; he seemed a bit uncomfortable but nevertheless kept the conversation flowing. βIβd never!β
"Well, please, sit. If you have the time, that is." Jackson took another sip of his water; eyeing the man before him head to toe as he rather casually bit his lip, βI-I guess I could sit down for a moment.β Levi interjected, unknowing if Jackson was interested in him; which almost broadcasted his insecurity and doubt. βSo, whatβs on your mind?β
"Other than the fact you just lied to me..." Jackson had a look of lust on his face that quickly turned into disappointment after he was just lied to by Levi. "Nope, nothing but maybe we can just chat. You're young and I am sure that is something you want to would like to say, no?" Jackson inquired and pried a bit, watching Leviβs smile fade.
"Okay... Maybe I'm a tad late." Levi blushed heavily as he glanced down at the table in embarrassment; yet he was oddly suspicious that Jackson knew his hours so well; then again he was a regular customer at Huskers. "I'm sorry, maybe I should get back to work..." Levi stood and made his exit from the booth, dazed at the mixture of embarrassment and shame he felt. "I really am sorry, it wasn't my intentions to lie. I just didn't want to be rude."
Just as Levi began to walk away, Jackson reached out to touch Levi's hand, it wasnβt his intentions to upset the attractive bartender; he was only flirting. "No, forgive me for questioning you. It wasnβt my place to do so." Jackson removed his hand from Levi's, lowering his head for a brief moment then rose it back up to look at Leviβs beautiful eyes. "Perhaps, maybe you could come over to my place for dinner tonight?" Levi stood shocked, blushing a deep red. "I-I-I..." He wanted to, he just blanked out. "I-I don't know, I-I... Uh, have to take care of my father; he's uh, sick."
Jackson maintained his cool as he calmly reached in his cargo shorts pocket and hand Levi a card that showed his cell phone number and address. "At least consider it or I'll be the real one embarrassed here, now get back to work." A playful smirk came about among his lips as Jackson waved Levi off without another word, a bit angered with him for lying yet again. Though, he couldn't be mad at him for too long, Levi was only a virgin; it was normal for someone of his status to be nervous, but as of right now, Levi was Jackson's prey and he was going to get Levi one way or another.
