Victor
Three Years Later
At the sound of the door opening behind me, I glanced back to ask Nese,
the other shop assistant who worked with me, what had taken her so long.
She’d been gone at least five minutes and the queue out of the shop had
grown. Clearly the townsfolk were in a rush to buy what was left of
Leeson’s chocolate Easter bunnies before we closed for a long weekend off.
In the States, the Easter holidays weren’t a thing, but Garrett had lived in
Europe for a while where they celebrated this holiday, so he traditionally
gave us those days off. This meant Friday and the following Monday, the
shop would be closed.=
I stared at Leeson, frowning in confusion at his appearance. “Is Nese
okay?”
Leeson’s cheeky grin appeared as he sauntered over to me, clutching a
large tray of bunnies. They were super cute in white, dark, milk and a blend
of all three chocolates. I reminded myself to put one aside for myself as an
Easter treat before they were all gone.
Leeson and his soon to be husband, Garrett, were chocolatiers. Garret
was from Sweet Haven and from what Victor knew, he’d left to train in
Paris, where he’d met his previous husband. After they’d split, Garrett had
returned home and opened a chocolate shop in town and named it after the
town. In need of a new assistant, Leeson had applied, and the rest was
history—sort of.
“Denton’s here,” Leeson said by way of an explanation as he placed the
tray down, smiling at the customers, “and I needed a quick word before I
lost my nerve.”
My already leaping pulse at the mere mention of Denton’s name skidded
to a halt. “Lost your nerve?” I croaked out, trying to think if I’d missed
something and I was in trouble. Jumping to conclusions was a habit I’d
mostly broken, but sometimes…
“I can see by your expression you think it’s bad, it’s not,” he murmured
close enough to my ear that the customers standing in front of us, who were
showing interest in the conversation, couldn’t hear.
It was easier to focus on the woman, a regular, remembering she’d been
waiting for Nese to return with the chocolate bunnies. What Leeson
wanted… that could wait, even with his reassurance it wasn’t bad. “Which
one would you like, Cassandra? Milk, white, dark chocolate or a mixed
one?”
Cassandra giggled like a schoolchild. “I’ve no will power against your
chocolate and though I’m here to buy for my grandchildren, I’ll need to buy
one for me, too. Oh, and my daughter or she’ll never forgive me. So it’ll be
two white, one milk for my daughter and I’ll have a mixed one.”
Leeson winked at her. “Who wants willpower?”
