Chapter 25

Trust me to ruin a perfect moment.

I was subdued the rest of the meal,though to give Jaiden credit,he didn’t seem to care about the mess I’d made.But I did,and I felt so stupid.Things had been going so well…

“Alister,”Jaiden said,his tone sharp.

I looked up at him,surprised.

“Stop worrying about the champagne.I don’t care.So you’re a little clumsy sometimes.So what?No one’s perfect.”

“But I wanted to be…to impress you.And now…”

“We’re having a nice meal and enjoying each other’s company.Has that changed?”

I shook my head.

“Did I run away screaming when the champagne spilled?”

I shook my head again.

“Then there’s no problem,is there?”

“You don’t understand.The day we met,I spilled hot chocolate on the counter.Our first lunch,I had an incident with a sandwich.And now,the champagne.It’ll only get worse.”
