A Taste of Love (Book #1)

Let's do this

Jayson's POV

I planned on leaving this morning. I was afraid of being here when Scarlet woke up. Not because I didn't want to be here, because I did. But I'm afraid she would freak out when she saw me.

I am currently in the kitchen area cooking some Bacon for her. As I'm cooking I can't help but think back to last night. Making love to Scarlet was unbelievable.

I've been in love once before but the feelings that Scarlet made me feel were more than I've ever felt. Not that I am in love with her. That would be just crazy.

She will be leaving soon. I don't know what will come of us or if anything would come of us at all. I haven't told her who I am just yet. I'm afraid that once she does find out, it will have her running from me. I'm a boss man. I control a lot of big things. You know that guy that you buy your weed from? Don't lie, we know you smoke. Well I am the guy that your guy gets his stuff from. I am the main source. I come from a family of marijunana farmers. There are still so many people out there who have problems with weed. I just hope that Scarlet isn't one of them.

I turn around to grab a rag from the sink to see Scarlet standing there smiling at me wrapped up in nothing but a sheet. That flutter in my chest is back. "How long have you been standing there?"

Scarlet giggles and says " Long enough to go grab my phone and now watch you burn that bacon you're cooking. "

I turn around. "Oh shit!" I turn the stove off and move the pan off the hot eye. When I turn back around to face her she is still staring at me. I can tell she's thinking about last night and she's beginning to stress her self out.

"Are you ok?" I walk up to her and look down at her. When she looks back up at me I can see all of the emotions that she is feeling.

"Yeah. I'm just not used to a man being here the morning after we have sex. I don't know whether to feel excited, nervous, or what. Then at the same time I feel turned on." Scarlet looks away nervously biting her lip.

"Scarlet. Look at me." I say in almost a whisper as I put my hands on her hips.

As she gazes up at me I can see water forming in her eyes. I'm not sure if that is a bad thing or a good thing. To find out I lean down and let out lips meet. I stay very still waiting on her to make the next move. She hesitates but finally begins kissing me and I kiss her back. We kiss as if our lives depended on it. Just ask I was about to take the sheet from around her she pulls back and takes a step back from me.

"Don't look like that. As much as I would love to sit here and continue to kiss you, we better stop before we end up back in the bed. If you are serious about seeing where we go then we need to tone it down a bit and really get to know each other. We don't know much at all. Plus, I don't know about you but I need to shower and get ready to go into the bakery for a little while. I have people to hire you know?" She smiles.

"I could always come shower with you." I wink and then laugh at how her face turns a different shade. "I'm joking. Let's sit down and eat breakfast then I'll get out of your hair for a little while."

Scarlet's POV

"I almost feel as if I have known this man my entire life. I mean yeah I still feel nervous as hell every time we are near each other but he is so easy to talk to and I actually enjoy being around him." I tell Caroline as I am facetiming her while I get dressed.

"Well, at least it went well. I still can't believe the two of you fucked! You are already changing this mans ways." Caroline fusses at me.

I roll my eyes. "If you ever get the chance to meet this man you will understand. I tried so hard to contain myself. But the way he looked at me and then his smile.. damn it just thinking about his is turning me on."
