didn't know everything yet. They both seemed to take to the chores that the other didn't. She wasn't a major fan of making food and pouring drinks, but she did enjoy cleaning. Jet was quite the opposite, having a love with preparing food and drink, but hating the cleanup process.
Kailee forgot to mention it to him at the end of the night, but on her way home she made a mental note to mention to him about the paperwork situation. It just seemed like another way that they would work well together. He could handle the financial aspect of it all, and she would ensure it was kept neatly organized.
Despite all her claims of not wanting to fall for Jet and that she needed some time alone before dating again, Kailee fell asleep to thoughts of them spending a lot more time together. She tried to tell herself that it would be all very proper because he was her boss, but she couldn't focus on the thought enough before sleep claimed her.
That night she dreamt of Jet, and much to her chagrin in the morning, none of it was very proper at all.

"Did you want me to start on the kitchen now?"
"No, let's get the rest of these tables cleaned and the chairs stacked. Then we can tackle it together. I'll wash you can dry," Jet responded. She nodded and moved out from behind the bar she had just finished wiping down.
Kailee had been working at the Quencher for almost a week now, and he couldn't be happier about his decision to hire her. She had turned out to be an incredible helper, far more involved and driven then Sandra had ever been. Her help had allowed him to get on top of a number of things that had been lagging behind for months on end.
The only place he hadn't been able to get ahead was with her. She was polite, friendly and hard-working, but never anything more. He desperately wanted to ask her out on a date, anything that might allow them to spend some time together when they weren't working. Nothing had helped, however, and he didn't want to push it too far, for he didn't want to abuse his position as her boss in any way. If something was going to happen, he didn't want it to get off on the wrong start.
His other desire for wanting to spend time with her, to see if she was involved with his old gang, had not born any fruit either. He had come upon her several times without warning but never once had she seemed to be doing anything untoward or sneaky. In fact, if anything she had made it somewhat clear that she was rather averse to anything that ran afoul of the law.
"You really have picked this up very quickly Kailee," he remarked as they began to lift the wooden chairs up onto the tables so that they could mop later.
"Well, I didn't mention it in the interview, but I waited tables for six months while I was in university. If you've worked one, you've worked them all, and it came back to me fairly quickly." She smiled at him, her tone teasing as she brought up the fact that she had never, in fact, had an interview of any sort.
"I'll have to ensure that I ask my next employee a more thorough set of questions."
"Oh, already interviewing to replace me, are you?" she joked, throwing her damp rag at him. He caught it deftly and tossed it over his shoulder, pretending for all the world that nothing had happened. She giggled at that, a sound that made him feel as if he were on cloud nine, floating through the paradise.
"So, what brought you all the way out here to Bear Bluff's then. You're smart and capable with a college degree. Why here?" He forced the question out, trying to make it sound nonchalant though he knew he had failed. Thankfully she didn't seem to mind talking about it, which made the past week's build-up seem pointless.
"Well, I got out of college and moved to a new city for a job. It was rather daunting, and when a smooth talking, good looking man came across my path, I fell head over heels for him. I fell so hard I should have known better."
He could practically hear the pointed reference there, that she
