I was staring and I was doing it with my eyes wide and my mouth dropped open

Whoa

Stitch had an extre behind that beard

Nice

"Uh," I sta out with Shay"

He shook his head and looked down at the prep station

"Got no business doin’ that either," he ht …" His voice trailed off, then he lifted his eyes, tensed his jaw, and said curtly, "Not talkin’ about this"

My brows shot up

I absolutely wanted to keep talking about this What Stitch was saying was incredibly interesting and so I would definitely share with Shay

He thought she had light He also thought he wasn’t good enough to touch that light I was hearing that loud and clear

Shay was right Stitch eet

I wanted to ju the crap out of hie him into further conversation, he reached out and slammed his hand down on the steel, swiped the ticket, read the order quickly, then tacked it up along with the others before he turned around and supervised the sauce pan

"Notaway "Droppin’ theonna do what you’re lookin’ for it to do"

I nodded at his back, deciding to be generous and letting Jamie off easy today Mainly because Stitch seeet creative if I asked and I was scared to think what he’d co over Shay

"It’s okay, don’t worry about it," I told hi back onto my feet "But if it’s not too much trouble, could you make those Southern stuffed shrimp extra yummy foras he stirred

"With lots of love," I added "Not that I’ you how to cook, but maybe slip in an extra hush puppy?"

Stitch shook his head through a noisy exhale

"Jesus Christ, I need a new fuckin’ job"

I left that re aas Shay worked at Whitecaps, I had a feeling Stitch wasn’t going anywhere
