Julian slid into the booth across from Gabriel smiling. This place is something else he said looking around. He loved décor it was in a word posh. He fingered the white linen table cloths and picked up a piece of silverware the weight was good. The lighting set a very good mood for intimacy. What type of cuisine are we selling here?
A little bit of everything but we specialize in American cuisine. The chef Tomas is from Spain and likes to add a few specialties here and there. We'll meet him before we leave of course. The thing is Julian, I want to make this place into an adult playground. We currently offer corporate retreats with different themes. Our most popular is the cowboy retreat we take a group of those types out and let them live off the land for a few days. We have singles weekends and a whole lot more. Like I was telling you the night club is basically in use when we have a full house which has become a pretty often occurrence. In the past four months we've had no vacancies, Gabriel grinned. I have lots of dreams for this place and there is lots of growth potential. I own one hundred and fifty acres out here and I have plans for every square inch. You're coming in at a good time Julian.
Julian loved his enthusiasm and vision. Gabriel was taking nothing and making it into something. His eagerness was catching, as Julian looked around the room so many ideas came to mind and he was just as excited as Gabriel about the possibilities.
"So, did you get everything out of the room," Gabriel asked.
"I went there and looked around at everything and left it there. Really there wasn't much worth saving. I had Drake to take me shopping and I spent the money on clothes."
He swallowed they didn't need to rehash their night together he hoped and discussing the money was putting them in that place. He exhaled as three waiters walked to the table with trays loaded with food.
Julian stared wide eyed at the food, "I'm going to eat myself sick he announced."
Gabriel chuckled, "isn't the goal of a tasting to taste not to necessarily eat."
"You can do all the tasting you want but I have some serious plans for most of this stuff and I will not be denied,"
He looked Gabriel in the eyes and fell over laughing. "What should we start with first," he asked a bit more seriously.
"Let's go clockwise the top of the clock is here," Gabriel pointed to his left.
"Sounds like a plan," Julian agreed as he cut the T-bone steak in half on the plate. He moaned,"Oh my god this is so good."
Gabriel swallow his throat became dry in hearing Julian moan it bought back memories from last night. He had to move beyond thinking of him that way or he was doomed.
He genuinely wanted Julian to stay and that meant making him comfortable and lusting after him would not be in his best interest.
When he hugged him back in his apartment he'd allowed his hands to roam down Julian's back and well an instant hard on is what he'd got in return. He still wanted him and he couldn't have him and it was eating him up inside out. Now, sitting across from him and looking at all the expressions of ecstasy on his face with every new bite tasted was going to do him in for sure.
Sitting back, they both patted their bellies. "Man all my hard work in the gym just went down the tubes," Gabriel confessed.
"I don't think I can move I may have to make a bed on the floor and sleep right here."
"I would sleep with you," Julian cleared his throat I mean I'd sleep beside you. Wow, that didn't come out right either um what I'm trying to say."
"Don't worry about it I got what you were saying," Gabriel laughed.
"Let's get out of here the sun is starting to dip."
Julian squinted and frowned at Gabriel. "Are you sure you're almost twenty-seven and not sixty-seven? Who says stuff like that," he laughed.
