Her Badass Mate

A Date Already?!

ISABELLA POV

“Lost, lost in the heat of it all,” I mumbled, singing along with Frank Ocean as i stocked the shelf in front of me.

The door bell rang and i turned to see no other than the boss walk in, looking just as hot. He took his shades off and looked around before landing his eyes on me. I blushed at being caught staring before focusing on the shelves.

“Go attend to him, everyone else is busy.” Mia walked past me with customers following her. I looked around the store and frowned when i confirmed that i truely was the only employee available.

I sighed and stood up. I dusted my clothes and walked over to where he was looking at some mufflers. I went and stood next to him before gulping. Should i thank him? Or should i ignore the matter and just focus on what he’s looking for? I went with the second one.

“Hi there! I’m Izzy. How can i assist you today?” I asked, using the phrase i said to every customer. He turned his head a bit, only to make eye contact for a brief two seconds before looking at the mufflers again.

“I know who you are, Izzy.” When he said my name, it made me shiver in pleasure.

“Alright then. You know me but i don’t even know your name.” I stated, crossing my arms over my chest.

“Dazz,” He mumbled, reaching for a muffler. I nodded and turned back to the mufflers. “What would you recommend for my chopper?” He asked, putting the muffler back.

I smirked, “Well, if i were you, i would buy this one because not only does it look good but it runs smoothly and doesn’t make too much noise. I hate the ones that sound too loud. Makes the bike seem old.” I shrugged, watching as he raised an eyebrow.

He picked the muffler i pointed out and put it under his arm. “Can you show me where the spray cans are?” He asked, looking at me. I nodded and started walking.

It made me smile how he immediately picked the muffler i chose instead of arguing about it or saying i was wrong. He just picked it up and got ready to go. He pays for my rent and also chooses what i pick?

I stopped in front of the shelves with all the spray cans and sighed.

“What would you recommend?” He asked, staring at the cans.

“For your chopper, hmmmm... i guess a dark blue would suit.” He nodded and picked up a test paper before turning to me.

“I’d like to buy this and get my bike spray painted this,” He motioned to all the stuff in his hands and i nodded. I led him to the counter and typed up my employee number before swiping his muffler.

“I’ll have to call Tony so he can tell you about the paint,” I stated, throwing a thumb over my shoulder. He nodded and turned around and started to walk towards Tonys office.  I knocked twice and entered. I informed him and he nodded before following me.

“Ahh, Dazz. Is this for your chopper again?” Tony asked, shaking hands with Dazz. They knew each other and he said again which means Dazz had come here before. If he knew where the spray cans were, why did he ask me?

I stood behind Tony and stared at Dazz. “Yeah, i need a change.” Dazz shrugged, moving his gaze to meet mine. This time i didn’t look away but i gave him a questioning look. I have noticed that he hardly smiles. “I want this muffler installed and it painted this colour.” He pointed to the items making Tony nod.

“You can pick it up tomorrow?”

Dazz nodded, “Just no scratches. I won’t hesitate to fire you and your staff if i find even one scratch on my baby.”
