“Right. Minimum wage plus tips,” he said to Steve and tossed a bar apron at him and then one to Patrick.

“I’ll get started.” Steve tied the apron around his waist and moved off to wait on a table

“You okay?”

Josh nodded. “I just didn’t know you were bringing a date.”

“A date?” Patrick shook his head, laughing. “Steve isn’t a date, Josh. I thought he could help.”

He knew he was being stupid, but damn, he didn’t like the way Patrick looked at this guy. “I do appreciate the assistance.”

“But?”

Peanut Man signaled him for another drink. Josh sighed. “Later. I better get busy.”

The evening went pretty fast, but Josh couldn’t stop watching Patrick and Steve interacting while they waited on customers. They laughed, talked, and looked all too comfy with each other.
