Just A Little Taste

Ever since Grant had agreed to attend the wine tasting with her, Brayden has been nervous. It wasn't a date, but it would certainly feel like one. And while she was sure he held no thoughts of that nature towards her, the kiss he had given her that night at her flat was still in the forefront of her mind.

She hasn’t told anyone about it, though who would she even tell? She could have told Olivia, but she didn't want to bother her friend while she was busy running her inn with Kenny. And then there was Callie, but that might be odd since she was Grant's sister.

She dressed carefully for the event, making sure to not appear that she was trying to impress anyone while also making sure she looked nice. He might not hold any romantic feelings towards her, but that didn't mean she had to look frumpy when she went out with him. Once she was ready, she left her flat to meet Grant at the tasting site.

She was just arriving to the designated place when she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She pulled it out and checked it, seeing Grant's name on her screen. She hoped he wasn't texting her to say that he couldn't going to make it. But when she opened the messaging app, she saw that he was asking for her ETA, which told her he was already there.

She didn't reply to him since she was already there. She just found him standing in the short line and made her way over to him. "I'm here," she said with a smile as she approached him. She then moved to hug him, but stopped as that might seem a bit too forward. Instead, she just smiled up at him. "Thank you for agreeing to come with me today," she said. She wouldn't have ended up coming if she was going to be on her own.
