The woman was staring at me like i just suggested she french kiss a rattlesnake my day wasn’t even supposed to be started yet and it had already gone to [ __ ] i blamed her and her [ __ ] sister tina i also threw some blame in agatha’s direction too for good measure since she’d been the one to text me that tina had just walked her troublemaking ass into the cafe now here i was at what counted as the ass crack of dawn playing town bouncer like an idiot and fighting with a woman i’d never met naomi blinked at me like she was coming out of a fog you’re kidding me right agatha needed to get her [ __ ] eyes checked if she mistook the pissed off brunette for her bleach blonde baked tan tattooed pain in the ass sister the differences between them were pretty [ __ ] obvious even without my contacts tina’s face was the color and texture of an old-ass leather couch she had a hard mouth bracketed by deep frown lines from smoking two packs a day and feeling like the world owed her something naomi on the other hand was cut from a different cloth a classier one she was tall like her sister but instead of the crispy fried look she went in the disney princess direction with thick hair the color of roasted chestnuts it and the flowers in it were trying to escape some kind of elaborate updo her face was softer skin paler full pink lips eyes that made me think of forest floors and open fields where tina dressed like a biker babe who’d gone through a wood chipper naomi wore high-end athletic shorts and a matching tank over a toned body that promised more than a handful of nice surprises she looked like the kind of woman who’d take one look at me and hightail it to the safety of the first golf shirt wearing board members she could find lucky for her i didn’t do drama or high maintenance i didn’t do doe-eyed princesses in need of saving i didn’t waste my time with women who required more than a good time and a handful of orgasms but since i’d already stuck my nose into the situation called her trash and yelled at her the least i could do was bring the situation to a fast conclusion then i was heading back to bed no i’m not [ __ ] kidding you i stated i’m not going anywhere with you you don’t have a car i pointed out thank you captain obvious i am aware i don’t have a car let me get this straight you’re a stranger in a new town your car disappears and you’re turning down the offer of a ride because because you stormed into a cafe and screamed at me then you chased me down and you’re still yelling i get in a car with you and i’m more likely to get chopped into pieces and scattered about in a desert than end up at my destination no deserts here some mountains though her expression suggested she didn’t find me helpful or amusing i exhaled through my teeth look i’m tired i got an alert that tina was causing trouble at the cafe again and that’s what i thought i was walking into she took a long hit of coffee while looking up and down the street like she was debating escape don’t even think about it i told her you’d spill your coffee when those pretty hazel eyes went wide i knew i’d hit the mark fine but only because this is the best latte i’ve had in my entire life and is that your idea of an apology because just like the way you ask people if something’s wrong it sucks it was an explanation take it or leave it i didn’t waste time doing things that didn’t matter like making small talk or apologizing a bike roared up the street with rob zombie blaring from the speakers despite the fact that it was barely seven am the guy eyed us and revved his engine wraith was knocking on 70 years old but he still managed to nail an astronomical amount of tail with the whole tattooed silver fox thing he had going on intrigued naomi watched him with her mouth open today was not the day little miss daisies in her hair would take a walk on the wild side i gave wraith the [ __ ] off nod snatched naomi’s precious coffee out of her hand and headed down the sidewalk hey the woman was staring at me like i just suggested she french kiss a rattlesnake.
