“THESE AREN’T COOKIES. THEY’RE GINGER DICKS,” I COMPLAIN TO PEYTON.
She’s my best friend and she texted me earlier today to let me know she was
baking. Of course, I had to show up to support her. That’s what friends are
for after all. I peer down at the cookies that have killed any desire I have for
baked treats.
“You’re right!” She smiles triumphantly and goes back to cutting out her
obscene cookies at the kitchen table. Her apartment is too damn tiny. I’ve
tried to get her to move into my place. I’d give her a great deal on rent, but
she won’t take it. “They’re going to sell like crazy.”
Peyton works as a bartender at Liquid Courage, the only bar in Courage
County. She wants to buy it from Harry the owner and she’s doing everything
she can to earn a little bit of money including selling baked goods to the
patrons. Harry is cool and doesn’t care. He says her munchies encourage the
customers to order even more drinks.
“Most of your male customers aren’t going to buy these.” I hold one up
that’s especially tiny and peer at it. It looks like it fell off one of those threeinch action figures I had as a kid.
She snorts. “We call that the ex-boyfriend size.”
“You have too much time on your hands,” I insist even though secretly
I’m proud of her.
I’ve tried to tell her we’ll go in half on the bar. I make more than enough
at the Christmas tree ranch I run with my adoptive family. Most of my
earnings go right back into my adventure account. It’s for that day when she
finally agrees to go on an adventure with me. Like skiing in Colorado or on a
safari in Africa. Not that she’ll let me spoil her. She’s too independent and
sassy.
She shakes her head. “Too bad you think that. Otherwise, I might have
made you a regular gingerbread man somewhere.”
“Gimme.”
She takes her cookie pan to the stove and bends over. Fuck, I have to look
away the moment she does. I always do.
Ten years I’ve been friends with Peyton and there hasn’t been a day I
haven’t wanted her. She’s always my fantasy. The only fantasy I have. If she
knew the things I think about her when I have my cock in my hand, she’d
never talk to me again.
She straightens and sets her kitchen timer before turning to me. She
narrows her gaze. “Did you just come over for free cookies?”
I do my best to feign innocence. “No. I’m here for quality assurance. You
wouldn’t want to sell a terrible batch of cookies.”
She laughs. It’s a rich throaty sound that makes my balls tighten. “I’m
lucky I have you then.”
“Oh, you have me,” I murmur under my breath while she reaches for the
plate that she’s carefully hidden away containing two regular gingerbread
men. I’ve spent over three thousand days acting normal around her, never
letting on that she’s the one woman I want.
