Chapter 17: Guilty Pleasure Delic(I)ous

"Close your eyes." Max said and Anna did.

She fidgeted in her seat excitedly and laughed a little.

"Keep them closed, don't open." He warned her.

"Open your mouth." He told her and her smile turned into a questionable look.

"This isn't some trick right? You're not going to put your stuff in my mouth are you?" Anna asked laughing.

"No, just open your mouth." He said with a grin.

She opened her mouth hesitantly.

Something moist and soft touched her tongue. The flavor of strawberries bursted in her mouth. Her taste buds screamed for more.

"Mmmmmm!" Anna let out, opening her eyes.

Her eyes quickly scanned across the table looking for the source of that delectable flavor.

It was a familiar taste, and even though she was full from the delicious lasagna Max had made her she had to find that taste, that yummy strawberry taste.  

When her eyes connected with the strawberry cheesecake in the middle of the table her mouth watered.

That was the best cheesecake she had ever eaten.

It was beautifully decorated too.

"You made this?" She asked, not looking away from the strawberries that were so carefully placed on top.

Her heart warmed and she looked up at Max.

He was smiling sweetly at her. "Yes." He said nodding.

"It's so good." She said with a smile.

Anna had never been more attracted to Max than she was just then, she wanted to jump his bones right then and there.

Instead, she cut herself a slice of cake and took another bite.

She let out a chuckle.

"Oh, my god! I can't believe you made this. Thank you Max." She said, shaking her head in disbelief.

He nodded.

"No problem." He said.

Max just sat there and watched her enjoy another bite of the cake he had worked on for hours.

 He just hoped she wouldn't see all the batter in the trash.

Anna ate the last bite and then stood up.
