My Hot Alpha
Chpater 51

Quickly sending her a text I handed my phone back to him. It was a dare and I was sticking it out.

"Keep it babe it's yours".

"Thank you". I smiled as I slipped it into my bag. "Where do you want to eat?".

"What are you in the mood for?". He asked as we began to walk in the opposite direction of where everyone was hanging out.

"I'm easy". I shrugged. I could literally eat anything. I wasn't fussy.

"If we keep walking there's a little shack that's open late. Serves the best dirty fries". He smirked.

"Dirty fries?". I questioned.

"Trust me babe you'll love them". Playfully shoving my shoulder with his I shook my head and smiled.

"I'll take your word for it". I winked.

As we approached the little shack I groaned internally. Jessica and Holly were here. Holly I liked but for some reason Jessica hated me.

"Come on". As if he sensed my discomfort he slid his hand in mine and laced our fingers. "Pick whatever you want". He whispered his hot breath sending tingles down my spine.

As I was looking at the menu I could feel her Death stare in my back. This was because I was here with Jake. Was I to say no every time he asked me to go somewhere because she didn't like it? "Jake my main man". The guy behind the counter grinned. "This the little lady is it?". He winked causing me to make a face.

"Gregg". Jake nodded. He seemed very reserved, like he was holding back. "Decided what you want yet princess?".

Gregg was smiling from ear to ear. "Anything you want it's on the house".

"I'll just have a burger and what about if we share some fries?". I asked.

He smirked.

"You won't want to share once you taste them. Gregg just give us 2 portions of dirty fries and 2 cheeseburgers with extra bacon and throw in 2 cokes".

"You got it boss". He winked as Jake led us to an empty table.

Boss?

I was uncomfortable. Not because of Jake but Jessica wouldn't stop staring.

"Your hearts beating so fast. Relax Leah and ignore her". As he slid his hand on top of mine I pulled it back.

"It's easy for you to say you're not the one she's glaring at". Sighing I smiled when Gregg placed our drinks on the table. "I've never had someone hate me as much as she does. She doesn't even know me". "Want me to say something?". As he made a move to get up I gripped his hand. He didn't need to cause a scene.

"She's hates me because of you". I sighed. "Did you date?". I hoped he would be honest with me.

"I wouldn't say we dated". Scratching the back of his head he took a drink. "She knows I'm not interested in her and I'll never be interested again".

"Okay". I couldn't argue with that. She obviously wasn't over what they shared and that was understandable.

As Gregg placed our food on the table I couldn't wait to dig in. It smelled delicious. Digging my fork into the fries I shoved them right into my mouth.

Holy Jesus! He was right.

"Told you". He chuckled.

"Hi Leah". Holly smiled as she approached us.

Quickly chewing the food I had in my mouth I took a drink and smiled. "Hey Holly, how are you?".

"I'm good, I'm good. I just wanted to pop over and say hello". Taking a glance at her table I noticed Jessica wasn't there. "I know you two don't get on but I hope that doesn't mean we can't be friends". "Of course we can be friends and I don't have an issue with Jessica, it's the other way around".

"Oh I know but I'm sure she'll come around".

"Holly". Jessica yelled.

"Guess that's my queue". She half smiled. "Catch you later".

"She's a sweet girl". Picking up my burger I took a bite. This was even better than the fries. I had to take note and come back here soon.

"Holly's a sweetheart but Jessica has a big influence over her".

Frowning I stopped eating. Was he trying to tell me something?

"Just be cautious babe! Girls can be mean". He didn't need to tell me something I already knew. I always kept my circle small and I wasn't planning on changing that. "Noted".

"Survived your first week here I see. How are you feeling?".

"Barely survived". I laughed. "But if I'm honest I feel good. It's not quite like home just yet but I'm sure it will be soon".

"I have a feeling you're exactly where you belong". Winking at me he pushed his empty plate to the side.

Finishing off my burger I pushed my plate to the side and grabbed my coke. "Maybe". I smiled. "I actually quite like it". I confessed.

"You'll begin to love it. You finished?". He asked.

Nodding my head I slipped my hand into my bag and pulled out my purse. Gregg said it was on the house but I at least had to leave a tip.

"Put that away princess. It's already been taken care of". As he stood I followed suit. "Fancy a walk along the beach?". He asked.

How could I say no to that? The beach was after all my favourite place to be. Shaking my head yes I couldn't hide my grin. Tonight had been a really good night.

"Tonight was fun Jake. Thank you". As we walked along the beach I stopped to take my shoes off. I wanted to dip my toes in the water. Dumping my bag on top of my shoes I walked closer to the sea. "So you wouldn't be against doing it again?".

"Are you asking me out again Jake Taylor?". I smirked feeling the water wash over my feet. There was no better feeling.

"Maybe". He shrugged.

"Then maybe I'd say yes". Feeling his presence behind me a gasp escaped my mouth as he gently placed his hands on my shoulders.

This felt right, he felt right.
