“Melody’s safe with me. We have each other’s backs no matter what. So just stop your worrying, man.”
“Okay. I wish I could stick around for a few days so I could hear you guys.”
“Me, too.”
“Maybe next time.”
“Maybe next time, what?” Melody said, squeezing her delicate yet curvy frame in between us. Her breasts accidentally brushed against my arm. I didn’t think she noticed, but I did. She grabbed her glass from the counter and gulped down the last few drops of beer that had to be room temperature by now.
“Oh, nothing important,” Ted said. “We were just talking about the next time I come see you guys, we’d be able to spend more time together, that’s all.”
“Like Christmas,” I said.
“Yeah. Exactly,” Ted affirmed. Then he put his arm around his sister and pulled her in for a squeeze. “We’re gonna have a blast. Now, I need a shot,” Ted proclaimed in a rather dangerous sounding tone. “Tequila!” he shouted to the bartender and held up three fingers.
When the shots arrived, we clinked our glasses together and drank. Melody grabbed one of the lime wedges and sucked it. I watched as her lips puckered, and my mind went back to sixth grade and the kiss we both pretended never happened.
